This is a cool little gadget. I have (tried) to make crepes by hand before, but I'm by no means a pro. This gadget had a little bit of a learning curve, but after a while, we were able to make some pretty decent crepes. I think my friend (who is an amazing crepe cook) would probably beat this in a competition, but for those of us who just want a fun brunch activity with friends, this certainly makes the job easier. After the initial learning phase, it works well and makes good, even crepes. It has even heat distribution and is easy to clean. Definitely not a kitchen gadget that is a necessity, but it's a fun one and worth it.

This was a fun gadget that makes crepes thin and cooks them perfectly. It was a nice new way to make breakfast.

Wasn’t the easiest to use. Crepe mixture kept getting stuck to the pan. Also a plastic plate isn’t a good idea to use with this pan.

This was messy but fun to use. There's definitely a learning curve to keep from ending up with batter all over the counter.

This doesn’t have a temperature gage to turn it up or down and it burns the crepe before it’s done.

I've made crepes (in the UK, these would have been pancakes) for years, using a skillet or crepe pan on the stove. Everyone in the family loves them, served in lots of different ways. This was a sufficiently different take on the process to be worth at least a try.Using the same old recipe that I've used forever (equal parts of eggs, milk and flour by volume, thinned with extra milk as desired), I tried this out. The batter goes into the shallow plastic dish, and the preheated device is then dipped (non-stick cooking side down) into the batter and lifted out with a coating of batter destined to become a crepe. After a couple of attempts at this inverted pancake cooking, I pretty quickly got the knack of this.It makes pretty nice even crepes. The crepes separate pretty easily once cooked, helping with a silicone spatula if they resist separation. Cleanup is a wipe down with a soft moist cloth, then a dry one.I'm yet to be convinced that it beats my old crepe skillet and a bit of wrist action to spread the batter, but it's certainly fun - especially for the local household audience.Next task is to try it for small chapatis (without the inverted dipping bit).

This heats up quick and seems very high-quality along with it having a non-stick surface which is wonderful. It isn't very large, however, large enough and perfect for the right size crepes and tortillas that you may want to make! I think that this is an AWESOME LITTLE PORTALBE CREPE MAKER and I highly recommend it! Crepes are so luscious for breakfast with some fruit and yogurt and whipped cream and they are such an elegant dessert! Now, I am hungry for Strawberry and Whipped Cream Crepes! :-)

it wasn't quite as easy to use as I thought it might be, or as I was looking for... but it wouldnt be a nearly as much of a difficult thing to learn without having made such a huge mess on my table and counters had it not been for that tiny little power cord tethering you in place.The power cable does seem shorter than the Entire Crepe Maker is long, and since I have relatively deep counters and am on the shorter side myself... it was a comedy of errors for a bit.It was such a messy thing to do and an adventure to undertake!!Dont get me wrong it was lot of fun to use but SO messy!! every time i tried to turn it over i almost ripped the cord out of the wall trying not to hit the counter or the wall, or drop it entirely!But Because I couldnt get enough length from the power cable to flip it properly it seemed to take me a little longer , so without a temperature control knob or buttons to turn it down a little bit, the bottoms always seem to overcook. there was no way for me to adjust for this aside from having my husband try the crepe maker, and glee in the mess he was making, so then I just got an extention cord for this which is kinda bulky and an added learning curve.oh, i almost forgot the "easy clean" feature is kind of a let down too. the top surface is a nice easy clean when cold, but that is because it is Genuinely nonstick but nothing else on this maker is easy to clean though. the drips on the side that somehow got underneath,from flipping it back and fro, is much harder than a sponge clean.but all said after a batch, a huge mess, and some fun making over-crispy manicotti shells with the family. I have the hang of it and may actually get more use out of this than my old crepe pan

I feel like this should have a button for heating. With majority of these types of makers, you plug them in, they get to a certain temperature and then the light informs you you’re good to start making crepes.This was my first time making crepes & using a maker like this, I cannot for the life of me use a pan to get the batter flat/even enough, so I thought this would be a good alternative. I liked that I could flip the maker into the batter (in its own tray) and just set it back on the stove to cook. It cooked quite quickly, but as mentioned above, I feel like it would benefit from a switch or button, as the surface got really hot, really quite, quickly steaming and burning quite easily. I also found that I had to flip the crepes after the one side was cooked (i know you would normally do this anyways) to properly cook the batter that still hadn’t fully cooked, before burning.Overall the crepes were okay. It’s a recipe & process that I’m going to have to work out personal kinks on, but overall it wasn’t a terrible first experience with the machine.

This appliance makes crepes super simple. Just let the unit heat up, flip the thing over and dip it in the batter you've poured into the dip tray, flip it back right side up and wait. Within a minute or so, you'll have a delicious crepe. In terms of size, these are smaller than the crepes you'd typically see filled and folded into quarters/eighths as street food, though you could still do it. It's even a little healthier than a lot of other options because the surfave of this is non stick (and it truly is! you can just pull the crepes right off when they're done.) Clean up is also super simple, because it's non stick and you can't dunk the thing into the sink anyway. Just wipe it clean and you're good. There's no recipe book or samples included, which might be slightly intimidating to a first time crepe maker, but the Internet has you covered... A quick search and you can find really good quality how-tos. The instructions provided are adequate, but the typical machine-translated English you see from a lot of companies these days.

If there was one immediate and resonating complaint, is that first and foremost the power cable is way too short. You are very limited in where you can use this; thankfully I can use the plug on my oven and work from there but it really isn't a very convenient thing to do.There also is no way to take off the heating portion for proper cleaning. Unfortunately sometimes things can get messy and you might end up getting some batter past the heating face and into the gaps behind it... what then? I ended up using a blunt knife to kind of chip off the crisped up batter but lo and behold, one small mistake and I scratched off part of the coating on the side of the heating plate. Bummer.And this kind of mistakes can happen, since batter is pretty thick and if you try to push the crepe maker deeper into the batter dish to maximize the size of the crepe, it unfortunately can be a bit hard to pull it out of the batter without needing to slide it a bit sideways. So, make your crepe a bit smaller and all will be fine. And frankly, it is super simple to use and it works quite well. There are no temperature control and in fact no buttons at all (which is a shame, a power switch on kitchen equipment is always safer). The crepes are very thin and release readily off the cooking surface. In order to get the back side to the crepe to cook a bit more, I end up getting the crepe a little dark but thankfully it isn't to the extent of being burnt nor crispy. Overall it is a pretty easy kitchen device to use.Regardless it is a bit unfortunate that you cannot properly deep clean that surface given that you cannot disassemble it. The plastics used are alright but not the most solid feeling. I do wish the seams between the cooking side and the rear was a bit more even though. Thankfully the design of the back/bottom is a nice and stable resting position, which is inevitably how you need to place it when letting it heat up or cool down after use.Do I recommend it? Honestly for the price it's not a hard one to say alright to, but if for a similar price there is a similar product but with a longer cord? definitely go for that one.

I love crepes and this crepe maker, while it takes a bit of finesse and practice, has made crepes my new Saturday morning indulgence. I found that it heats up quickly so that I can get started making crepes without having to wait very long. The non stick surface makes creating the crepes easy as once cooked you can tease them off the non stick surface with a silicone spatula. I also find the non stick surface easy for clean up although if you get batter onto the surface under it can be a challenge to clean. The crepe maker cannot be submerged into water and so sometimes extra effort is needed to clean the body of the maker from batter which drips off the non stick surface. The crepes are slightly smaller than the ones I make in my frying pan, however there is a certain flare and sense of fun making them this way. I would suggest not filling the dipping plate no more than a 1/2 to 2/3 full as it can overflow when you dip the maker in. A fun way to make crepes with the family.

I had high hopes for this portable electric crepe maker as my family and I have recently gotten into more elaborate breakfasts. Unfortunately, this crepe maker was not what I expected and I don't intend to keep it around in my kitchen.The crepe maker itself only requires the two pieces of equipment that came in the package - the electric non-stick crepe maker and the plastic dipping plate. Both were easy to clean, but be aware not to submerge the crepe maker into water. To use the crepe maker, you can just plug it into any outlet, but I would recommend using the one on your stovetop as the process is quite messy and the crepe maker does get quite hot.The actual use of the crepe maker was messy and did not produce the desired result. It was actually quite difficult to get the crepe to stick to the pan. Following in the instructions, I filled the dipping plate with batter and then dipped the crepe maker (hot side down) into the dipping plate, then flipped it over to continue the cooking process. After several failed attempts, the crepe maker kept cooking the batter inside the dipping plate and did not stick to the pan even after flipping it over. The process was also very messy and batter kept dripping down the side of the pan. The pan itself is definitely not stick - nothing stuck to it. At the end, I was able to make 3 VERY CRISPY crepes that were pretty much inedible and I switched to my waffle iron to use up the remaining batch of batter that I had already made.In short, I would suggest getting a griddle or an actual crepe pan if you are looking to make crepes.
