I didn't see anything in the reviews about the indicator lights. Does this waffle maker beep when the waffles are done or just give the green light?

Unfortunately there is no sound indicating the cooking is complete. The green light does come on so you have to be somewhat mindful of the appliance while you are doing other chores in the kitchen. It does seem that once the green light comes on, the heating elements 'turn off' (until the plate cools down to some preset temperature.) Therefore if I don't notice the green light immediately (or can't quickly get to it), the waffle is none the worse for the extra time. Hope that helps!

Green light only--no sound. We found that green light method results in underdone waffles so we judge doneness by lack of steam coming from waffle maker.

The green light only indicates when the waffle iron is ready to pour the waffle mixture on. There are no indicators for the cooking time a waffle takes to cook. But you will notice over time and practice how long it takes. I still believe this is a great waffle iron.

The light turns green; there is no beep. Waffles are good even if you don't get to them immediately. You spray the iron and plug it in, light is red until ready. You fill with batter (it takes less than you'd think) and close. The light is back to red until your waffle is ready. The slide indicator of darkness is very accurate. Waffle after waffle. Hope this helps!

The green light should be blinking. You can also force a test. This alarm has been very helpful to our family. My mother has memory problems and will leave the gas stove on once in awhile. The light on the unit helps her to remember to always check the stove.

No - it does not. Plus it beeps when the griddle is ready and again when the waffles are done.

The green light goes on when ready for dough, then goes out when lid shortly after the lid is closed when the green light comes back on cookie is usually ready to be removed. Very easy to use.

The green light indicates that it is ready for cooking. It will go on and off during cooking as the thermostat regulates the temperature.

I bought one of these waffle makers for my grandson. He loves it and especially likes having the removable plates that can just be put in the dishwasher. I don't think it had a beeper but it does have a light to let you know when the waffle is ready.

Once you plug it in it usually takes about 2-4 minutes for the light to change from red to green, indicating that it's ready. Once you pour the batter on the light turns back to red and id say it takes about a minute to a minute and a half for one waffle to cook. It depends on how much batter you put on and which heat setting you're using. I usually keep it around 3-3.5 to get lightly golden waffles.

No indicator light on this slow cooker, but it is not really needed. As previously suggested, set the dial to high, medium, low, or off. I love this cooker! Right size/shape, simple, easy to clean removeable crock, and inexpensive!

No, there is NOT an indicator light. I wish it did have that. I always just unplug it as soon as my dish is done.

1vote plug it in and turn the dial to 7 or 8. Spray with pam. When light turns green pour batter in. Close and flip. When light turn green again (About 6 minutes) turn back and lift lid - you can turn the dial down after the first waffle waffle lover answered on August 11, 2014

There should be two beeps - one for when the iron is pre-heated and ready for the batter, and another after the waffles are ready. If you are using a light setting, it might beep very soon (within seconds) after you pour the batter in. This is when you should remove the waffles. I mistakenly thought it was the indicator that the iron was back to temperature after I opened it quickly to pour the batter in, but in fact, they were done that quickly. Are you failing to get a beep even using different settings (light/medium/dark)? If you aren't getting the pre-heat beep followed by a second beep, I would return the iron and/or call the manufacturer. Good luck!

I've done 8 batches since I got my maker and the unit beeps when the temperature is ready and also when the waffles are done. You need to check your pre-heat setting and the unit should beep when the temp gets to that setting. It should also beep when the waffles are done at the pre-selected setting.

Wait for the ready light to go on. Then fill with batter. Close lid and flip the light on the bottom of the iron should turn green again when the waffle is complete - about 5 or 6 minutes

No beep. Best toaster I've had. The timer count down lets you pop the toast right before the egg finishes

Yes, it makes a little beep. You will love this toaster. It is the best I have ever used.

No indicator light, but we've noticed once the steam subsides they are ready. Makes up a batch quickly! Been a great waffle maker.
