Is there an indicator light to let you know when the waffles are ready or do you have to check them?

Yes. There is a light to let you know it's ready. There is also an orange light to let you know that the cooking is still in progress.

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

IT does. The light stops shinning and you know when they're done. It's seldom accurate, though. It depends mostly on the thickness of your batter. It also depends on how much batter you use to make your waffles. I would recommend you check it once in a while. This machine is great for the price, that I can tell you.

I have the 26030 waffle maker. It does not have an audible beep but does have the removeable plates. I love it.

Sounds defective. Mine beeps but you can also tell a waffle is done when the steam stops or slows way down. Also, when the iron is up to temp the lights around the temp knob go to where you have set the browning level.

Hi, first I adjusted my heating knob until it was maybe two clicks from the center of the toward the off position, When I pour I use my 2 cup measuring cup( be generous go over the line) so I know I have approximately two waffles to get out of the batter, Make sure you do over fill the pan just fill it until you have the bottom of the pan covered. flip as soon as you put the top down, wait 6 minutes flip and wait another maybe 7, it take 2 green lights for each side.

The Belgian Waffle Maker 26030 Has removable plates but no audible beep. I like it a lot. It is easy to clean. I just put the plates in the dishwasher.

Since my son is away I have not used it for a couple of weeks. I will time it next time I use it. I think the other answer is accurate. I make the batter when the waffle iron is warming up. I put oil on the waffle maker and turn it on to setting 2 (3 and 4 were too dark) and then make the batter. It is important to put the correct amount of batter on.

Yes, if you have them on a darker setting or if you make them lighter just leave them in longer. We are really happy with the waffle maker. We even save leftovers and pop them in the toaster oven the next day.

No extra indicator light of any kind. It just has the light from the heating element when you turn it on. Great heater - instant heat, no waiting when you turn it on.

the cord is short.. less than two feet.Yes, it has an indicator light.... but your waffles are not ready when it says "ready." Because this thing does not get hot enough to properly cook waffles, they must cook for 15 minutes... not 5 like the light indicates. I think mine is going in the trash. I'm tired of making waffles I don't feel like eating.

no, the lights just show that power is on and that the thermostat is cycling. its not useful other than saying its 'working ok'.to cook, you have to time it. that's all there is; there is no way around it. you watch for steam and you time it and learn what the time is for your batter.

Sorta.. the light turns green when its ready to use, then turns off after you poor the batter into it. The light will then turn back on when the waffle is done, I usally let it cook about a minute beyond that to make it a little crispier. The iron continues to heat as long as it is pugged in the light basically tells you when has reached a certain temp..it does not turn itself on or off.

If yours is like mine, it did not come with an instruction book (that's probably why you can't find it.) Just use it like any other waffle iron. Spray with Pam, fill with batter (use pancake mix, Bisquick, or make your own), and remove when the light indicates. You will probably have to experiment with the consistency of the batter. Good luck!

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

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

Yes, there is a light, which is on during operation and if you leave the door open after food has been cooked or defrosted. However there is a screen on the window that makes it difficult to see the food being cooked.

watch the LED's... when they are all lit to the dial setting then it's at the desired temp for cooking. once you add the batter the lights will go down and then go back up to where you indicated and should beep at that point. theoretically that's when the waffles are done but sometimes you may want to let it cook a minute longer.

No, there is NOT a light that lets you know the coffee is ready. But you CAN hear when the perking stops completely, and that's whenit's ready.
