Only gripe is that it's not very simple to clean. If you didn't make a mess, then you can wipe it down after it cools. No parts detach though, so you'll have to get creative if there's a larger spill to clean.
Our answers to the frequently asked questions below:
Is this pan made with teflon?
Yes. The surface is made of non-stick teflon, but be careful to use wooden chopsticks and nothing to metal to scratch the surface.
Because this is being shipped from japan, do i need a converter to use it in the u.s.?
You do not need a converter to use this product. We're in California and it worked great outside the box.
Can I use to steam?
We wouldn't recommend it.
Overall, we would recommend this product for first time Takoyaki enthusiasts. It's not the most high quality or perfect product, but it will give you a great cooking experience and yummy Takoyaki.
