waffle maker d.o.a. :(

| 0 comments

Well, not too impressed with that Waring WMK300 waffle maker that I bought.  3-4 months past its 1 year warranty, it died.

Opening it up, I discovered melted wire insulation, and scorch marks on the bottom stainless steel cover.  Although this waffle maker made great waffles, it was a potential fire hazard that put my family and my home at risk!.

I went to do a review and report this on amazon, and came across another review where someone mentioned that the problem was with a thermal fuse. Figured what the heck – spent a couple bucks and tried to get it working, and with the help of a freind with some extra heat proof wire shielding, and my father-in-law, the waffle maker was producing heat again.  Unfortunately, not enough heat, and no audible tones from the cooking timer.

So, this door stop of a waffle iron will be trashed, and we’ll replace it with another one.  Definitely not a Waring!  I wrote up a review that I posted to epinions.com about this experience as well.
