Beautiful it is not contrary to the product description. It arrived with a few rust marks by the screws and there seems to be some sort of corrosion on the outside of the metal plates. But these are all cosmetic issues and altough I'm not very happy with it I have to admit this is a lot cheaper that you can buy from catering companies. And this looks exactly the same, and although I haven't tried the more expensive models I daresay it's the same. The cast iron pans distribute heat evenly and quickly. I've made quite a few waffles already and they all turn out great. Better yet the performance is consistent regardless if you're doing your first or tenth waflle. The timer is handy addition as is the temp control. Even though the first impression wasn't great I decided to keep it as I have confidence that this will a reliable addition to my business. It's all stainless steel and compared to a consumer version I have here at home (_25 one) it's a lot better. I can easily recommend it especially for businesses as it will increase your waffle output compared to the plastic consumer ones.
