I was thinking I'd like the B&D model if I were on the
verge of trotting down the aisle.  Both could be having
breakfast together instead of one chowing down while the
other person is still waiting on their waffle to cook.

 
I have a very old chrome looking waffle iron from the 1950's that makes
two (square) waffles at a time.  I vaguely remember my mother using it
when I was a kid.  For some reason she kept it forever and I wound up
with it.  I don't feel like dragging it out of the pantry to check the
brand or snap another pic of it.  It's very retro.  Cooking waffles are
simply not that interesting to me.

I think that few people use waffle irons often enough to bother getting
or keeping a waffle iron.

Then again, a few people get and keep waffle irons and only use
them once or twice a year.

My wife and I have one and use it quite often.
While I am happy with pancakes my wife really likes waffles. Pancakes
are a snap to make from scratch but waffles are considerably more work.
The eggs have to be separated and the whites beaten then folding into
the batter.

That's a choice, not a necessity.
