It is rare to find one of these waffle makers which is actually marked, but this one is on both sides.Cast into the iron is the name UMAFO which was a Belgian Ironworks Company.
This piece is in excellent usable condition, with no flaws.The exterior has a bit of buildup from usage, but the interior is super clean.The hinges connecting the two sides are solidly attached and work... flawlessly and silently.The long handles are iron as well and solidly attached.
Other than the usage buildup, there are no flaws to this piece.
Measurements:
The overall length of the iron is about 24 1/2"The closed width of the waffle portion (including the hinges) is about 5"The open width if the waffle portion (including the hinges) is about 9 3/4"The cooking area is about 7 1/4" by 4 1/4"The weight of the item is about 6 pounds 13 ounces!! (not including a waffle!)
This is a great item which could easily be used for its intended purpose or would make an awesome wall hanger decoration. Most waffle makers have flat and unappealing exteriors, where this one has the waffle pattern, which makes it very appealing to the eye.
