Is there an easy to clean waffle maker?

I have a $20 round one from amazon that I have never had the slightest problem cleaning, and now we have a more expensive flip one that is just as easy. The flip one is nice because it comes with a drip tray you can just run under the faucet, but if you put in the correct amount of batter there should be no spillage… I’ve never had a problem with spillage in my $20 one, the new flip one I am still learning how to use so it’s a bit messy-- my round one is thinner round waffles and my flip one is belgian so I am working on getting the batter amount right! The manual tells you to put, I think, about a quarter cup too much. Clean up is easy for both though, you just wipe with a damp cloth while they’re still warm before the batter has a chance to bake on or anything. I’ve never had an issue, this is one of the easiest, cleanest appliances we have. I would try less batter!

For my belgian maker, I am realizing I need less batter than it looks like. The manual advises pouring into the center of the iron and then quickly smoothing to the edges with a heat proof spatula, which makes a little bit of batter go a lot further. I made a perfect waffle using a quarter cup less batter than they said, when I used their full amount about a quarter cup sprayed out into the drip tray.
