These vintage waffle irons will
prove to you how long waffles have been enjoyed by people since ancient times
even before non stick coating and thermostats were invented.
General Electric Best Value Waffle Iron
Since 1920’s and the invention of
the first ever electric waffle iron, General Electric has continued to produce waffle
irons with stylish designs and innovative features but is now considered
vintage today. This vintage waffle iron is one of General Electric’s pride sold
during the 1930’s to 1940’s, which is made with stylish design and textolite
handles. Unlike modern waffle irons, it doesn’t come with non-stick surface and
thermostat just and it’s also non automatic. But despite these outdated
features, it self-regulate,s not overheating as long as it has batteries. It
produces well-cooked, thick, 6 ½ inches wide waffles.
General Electric “Diana” Waffle Iron
Another restored waffle iron is
the very popular 1939 Diana model, which was one of the great Art Deco
Appliances invented in America. This waffle iron was a favorite wedding present
to newly-wed couples which could last a lifetime of service. One of the main features
of this waffle iron which is absent in new models is its capacity to perform efficiently
for everyday waffle making. It comes with cozy ivory textolite handles and an
accurate temperature controller equipped to make any type of waffles you
desire. Whether you want light brown chewy waffles today and then dark and crispier
waffles tomorrow, you definitely can make it with ease and comfort. Just like
the previous model, Diana waffle iron yields a 6 1/2 inch wide waffle but
thicker than the typical one.
Royal Rochester Waffle Iron
Nothing seems so vintage and elegant
than this waffle iron made way back in the 1920’s. Polished with nickel, this non-automatic
waffle iron also comes with two identical side handles and one major wood,
ebony-colored lid handle in between. The base sits on a creatively pierced wide
platform. Internally, very efficient patented Calrod heating materials make up
its machine which would bake a thick 7-inch diameter waffle. This vintage
waffle iron has been restored and qualified today as a commercial grade appliance.
