lasts a few years or so
We got this for our wedding (2003) and it has lasted us until this past fall (2008). thats when the hinge broke and the cover on the light broke. over the years it started to not cook the waffle as done when the light would go off so to counteract that i would just leave it in a minute longer after the light went out. my suggestion for the ones who's hinge broke- be more careful when closing and opening it. it should not make any sounds when you do it, that way you know you were careful. thats how i always treated mine and it lasted 5 years. and for a plastic hinge i think that is pretty good. also when putting the batter in, less is best. i think we put in 1/3 of a cup. then it didn't over flow, and no outside mess to clean up.

Worse than useless hinge pins; 2 waffles until breakage
The hinge pins broke on the second waffle. They sell no parts. Cannot find a way to fix it. I figure that makes it about $15 per waffle until it is unsafe and a burn/electrical hazard. I should have avoided this but did not research first. Not many of us research a $30 item. DO NOT BUY unless you have money you do not want.

Okay Waffle maker
I recieved this waffle maker as a wedding present. I used it 2-3 times and it worked fine...after that, the waffles always stuck to both sides of the iron. I had to scrap the waffle off with a spatula. Doesn't work very well.
