The Chefman Anti-Overflow waffle maker is positioned as a low-mid range product. It’s pretty apparent in the solid build quality, a unique lid-lock design, and an oversized “anti-overflow” moat. Its performance also reflects its price point: the waffles we made with it all had good coloration and soft texture and were very flavorful.
It’s not perfect: the coloration tends to be a bit burnt. Nevertheless, there’s potential there.
The KRUPS Belgian is a high-end model with a fittingly high price. Its highly premium and solid design has features like removable waffle plates and an audible chime. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend it at this time because it’s the only model that failed our performance test. The KRUPS could not cook an edible waffle in 10 minutes in our test with pre-mixed batter.
