I guess the coating has to "cure" first

The non-stick ceramic is so much nicer than the old flaky teflon coating on my last one.

It looks very nice and I love the safer ceramic coating, but I should have heeded the other reviews that complained it didn't brown your waffle.

Initially I loved this waffle maker because of the ceramic coating: and the ceramic coating is working fine and we have no problems with it or sticking.

if it turns out the nonstick coating is toxic, killing our pets or the environment, or giving us cancer

the interior coating is fantastic.

Seem well built, I got the ceramic one because it was not likely to loose its coating like the teflon one can.

This wonderful slick non-stick ceramic coating never smells toxic.

Heats up quickly and the stick free coating is great.

This wonderful slick non-stick ceramic coating never smells toxic.

This Oster machine uses a ceramic non-stick surface, which was definitely a plus factor, -no Teflon or other potentially dangerous coating

I don't want a waffle maker that produces one waffle in what ... 15 minuter perhaps?On the plus side, the ceramic coating works well.

Easy cleanup, and truly a great non-stick coating.

The nonstick coating works

The ceramic coating is wonderful-just used a bit of oil as per directions, and there was nothing to clean up

Seem well built, I got the ceramic one because it was not likely to loose its coating like the teflon one can.

Love the ceramic coating

I will say that the ceramic coating is great and the waffles "release" easily, but they are very floppy

The ceramic coating, however, is great.

The ceramic coating is the best I've used.

Ceramic coating is the best.

The coating is tough and the waffles don't stick to the surface.

The coating is really good

The coating is pretty good for waffles not sticking and easy for cleaning.

Only ceramic coating I could find which doesn't poison your food

We switched to ceramic because of the toxic Teflon coating in our other waffle maker

It has black marks at the bottom and I can not remove them without using a knife or any metal which will scratch the ceramic coating

durable non-stick coating. suitable for home use.

The coating is as durable as any other and it crisps up the waffles really well

i think its discouraged because it can leave a sticky film that will make it nonstick and harder to clean as

And even I am using it in Singapore (yes, with a power transformer) it makes the effort worthwhile as it makes the best waffle

Has adjustable browning control, not sure if it really works as I mentioned time seems to be key

Great waffle iron, although I can not get waffles as crispy as I would like.

The indicator light illuminates as if the waffle is done only to find an uncooked waffle in the iron.

Ceramics is great - no need to grease, and no need to clean as the waffle comes out neatly
