How good is it for pancakes. Does the batter get stuck in the grooves?

No, I would not recommend this for pancakes, I believe it would get stuck. I use this to grill veggies and meat.

The Grill is still on there.....the griddle just sits on top of it.....just take griddle off when done....it works like a charm for pancakes...eggs and bacon if you wish...or anything that might leak on the grill that might have a sauce or something in it....instead of using some other grill pan....works so good!

I've never made pancakes on it. I've browned butter, made some great fish dishes. I suspect pancakes would be a lot better than on a regular electric top.

Hasn't been for us. Still works good. We cook pancakes on it all the time. A real thin egg mix for omelets or something like that doesn't work but thicker liquids like pancakes no problem.

It sticks somewhat, but not terribly. I was able to get off tempura batter after soaking it in warm water + dishsoap for about 5 minutes.

yes, it is good for all kinds of batters, especially since it has the handle and a non-skid ring on the bottom that prevents it from sliding on the counter top. Good for biscuit mixing since you don't want it to be mixed too smoothly.

My best answer would just to give you the measurement of the hole itself. The diameter is 1/2" exactly. I found this a handy item if the batter you are using isn't thick. The batter should be almost pourable. I use it mainly for pancakes to avoid drips from the bowl to the griddle. Worth it for us because our family loves pancakes!

I use a plastic pallet to flip them and I use the tip to get under the pancake, also I take the pan and I lift it a bit on one side to make it easier. I got the hang of it and I love the pan, I use it almost everyday. So far so good, not a problem with it.

I haven't had any problem with mine, but I usually cook my eggs in a smaller pan. If the pancakes are cooked on one side until the bubbles come up, there should be no problem!

I have not. But judging from the fact that my griddle warped on medium-high heat after only weeks of use, I would not use it. Great for pancakes, torillas, eggs over easy.

it works well for pancakes, but i doubt that heavy viscosity fluids would pass easily. there is a professional model for about $100 that would work.

mine does NOT sit uneven and is used to make pancakes at least 2 times a week. We have also made other versions of pancakes with Quinoa and potatoes and it cooks perfectly.

Not a good idea - the pancakes and eggs would cook unevenly because they are different thicknesses. Plus you will spend a lot of time and effort getting the egg or pancake out of the grooves.The best use for the griddle is for meats and firm vegetables [such as eggplant slices] where you want grill-marks -

My pizzelle maker is about one year old. I have not had any problems with batter sticking even though I do not use oil on the surface. Sorry I could not be of more assistance.

It has a small paddle and I have never had it get stuck in the machine. When you remove the baked bread from the pan, the paddle will sometimes release along with the bread wnd will have to be removed from the loaf but it's no big deal. I have enjoyed the machine.

stupid question.........................depends on how big the pancakes are to be

only the center circle heats, but a good pan should disperse the heat and you do need to stir once in a while. Would not be good for making pancakes around edge of pan....I do love mine for stews, soups, sauces, etc.
