Pros
Great waffle maker
Loving this waffle maker. Love that i can adjust the browning, and the waffles are large! It says it cuts the waffles but they dont actually cut through, which is fine for me.

Very quick waffles
We upgraded to this waffle maker from a much cheaper Aldi version, it heats up quickly and we make about 5 waffles in less than 10 minutes. The non stick is also great, no need for extra oil spray and easy to clean.

Small but robust waffle maker
Early days but I am impressed with this compact Breville waffle maker. While it has a small footprint on the counter, it is incredibly sturdy and feels like a premium appliance. The build quality is excellent, and it genuinely looks and feels like it will last for years to come. It has been a good addition for our small family churning out golden, evenly cooked waffles. The only drawback to consider is its size if you are cooking for a crowd. Because it is small, you can only make a limited amount at once. If you need a large turnaround or want to feed a big group of people quickly, this might not be the best fit. However, if you are looking for a reliable and space-saving waffle maker for daily family use, this one is an excellent investment.

Crisp Control Waffle Maker
I absolutely love this. I thought it might be hard to clean but that’s not the case; it’s easy as. Just a wipe with a damp chux will do it & maybe a soft pastry brush.

At a glance
The Breville The Crisp Control Waffle Maker is a compact 1000W appliance designed for making up to five waffles in one batch with adjustable browning and texture. It suits smaller households, casual weekend cooks and anyone who wants simple controls and easy cleaning. Its key strengths are custom crispness, non-stick plates and tidy storage-friendly size. The main limitation is that it focuses on straightforward waffle making rather than broader dessert versatility.

- Small household
- Cupboard-stored appliance setups
Who it’s for

Things to consider
It is designed specifically for waffles, so it offers less recipe flexibility than premium dessert machines with interchangeable plates or advanced cooking programs.
Family entertaining suitability
7/10 - The 5-waffle batch size is useful for sharing, though it is better suited to small to medium gatherings than frequent large-volume serving.
Ease of cleaning score
8/10 - Non-stick plates and wide sealing edges help reduce sticking and overflow mess.
Recipe versatility rating
5/10 - Strong for waffles, but it is not built for broader dessert formats or interchangeable cooking styles.
Kid friendliness
Good for family use with adult supervision thanks to cool touch handles and simple dial control.
Noise level vs category average
Low - operates quietly compared with many small dessert appliances as it has no motorised mixing or blending function.
Key benefits
- 5-waffle capacity: Cooks up to five waffles per batch, making it easier to serve multiple people at once.
- Adjustable temperature dial: Lets you choose softer, lighter waffles or a more golden, crisp finish to suit different preferences.
- 1000W power: Provides consistent heating for everyday home waffle making.
- PFOA free non-stick plates: Helps waffles release more easily and reduces scrubbing after cooking.
- Cool touch handles: Makes it safer and more comfortable to open and move during cooking.
- Wide sealing edges: Helps reduce batter overflow into harder-to-clean areas.
- Compact footprint: Fits more easily on benches or in cupboards when space is limited.
- Ready indicator lights: Shows when the machine has reached cooking temperature for more consistent waffle results.
Q: Is this waffle maker better for small households or big batches?
A: It suits small households best. The plate cooks 5 waffles per batch and the compact body is easy to store, but if you need fast back-to-back batches for a larger group, a bigger format waffle maker will be more practical.
Q: Can you make soft waffles as well as crisp ones?
A: Yes. The temperature dial lets you choose a lighter, softer finish or a more golden, crisp result, so it is not locked into one texture. It uses simple manual control rather than preset cooking programs for different recipes.
Q: Does the edge design really help reduce waffle batter overflow?
A: Yes. Wide sealing edges are designed to keep excess batter out of harder-to-clean gaps around the plates, which helps keep cleanup tidier. They reduce mess, but they do not make overfilling spill-proof, so batter still needs to be measured sensibly.
Q: Will this fit easily in a small kitchen cupboard?
A: Yes, in most small kitchens it should be easy to store. This model is designed with a compact footprint for bench or cupboard storage, but it is still a dedicated waffle maker, so it needs its own storage space rather than replacing multiple appliances.
Q: Can this model cook foods other than standard waffles?
A: Yes, for simple plate-cooked batters and similar snacks, but it is built specifically as a waffle maker. The fixed non-stick waffle plates and single temperature dial give some flexibility, though it does not have interchangeable plates or dedicated dessert programs.
Q: How much control do you get over waffle browning?
A: Breville BWM250BSS gives manual browning control through a temperature dial, so you can adjust colour and texture to suit different mixes and preferences. It is straightforward to use, but it does not automate doneness with recipe-specific settings.
