    I have one of each and it depends on what I'm making as to which i use.

    I like Jaffle irons that don't have a cut through the middle, my one like that broke and i haven't been able to find another one like it.

    :yeahthat:
    Whatever takes our fancy or who is making - I prefer Jaffle and DH prefers flat, but if you have a fancy sandwich like cafe style, the jaffle maker doesn't work but you can put ooozy stuff in the flat.

    I like a jaffle style if I am having baked beans or spaghettie or left over bolognaise. I just had to throw one out and then I saw Big W had them for $9!!
    I quite like the old fashioned cheese and ham under the grill with butter on top after finishing. I find the flat squishy ones ok, just not quite as satisfying Lol.

    I like the flat style, so much easier clean!! It really used to irritate me cleaning the jaffle one once I was done with it!

    Jaffle!


    Having said that though, I prefer my ham cheese tomato toasties to be flat cat lol We have both. We actually have a really cool fire jaffle iron for camping - sooo good from the fire!

    We make toasted sandwiches in the frypan/skillet! Butter on the outside and toast one side & turn it over. Doesn't make it squished like the flat cat type, but gives a nice toast on the outside.

    We've got a jaffle style one too (but not the triangle cut-in-half type, the one that does the square) and we use that for the runny fillings like spaghetti or baked beans!

    We've got the jaffle one, but ours doesn't cut it in two - so perfect for putting an egg in it. I love it, but we need one that does 4 at a time and I don't think I can get a jaffle one with 4?
