I expect this the first month or two with any new appliance, but if it continues past that I toss it

I just bought a Cuisinart waffle iron and it smells like the wires are burning. It’s horrible. I think I’m going to have to get rid of it.

I've tried using it below the exhaust hood but it doesn't seem to help. Has anyone had good luck with waffle irons that don't have the nonstick coating?

Are you sure the smell isn't from traces of rancid oil or butter on the waffle iron?

The buttery goodness on the waffles will kill you before any fumes will. Bon appetit!

I have a Krups waffle iron that doesn't smell. I would assume that a waffle iron doesn't heat beyond the temperature that is safe for nonstick, but of course an appliance can malfunction.
