Our electric waffle iron got extra messy, so my husband decided to pop it open to give it a thorough clean. Turns out it was designed to break the circuit board if you tried to pop the heating elements out to give them a proper clean.

This means 2 things:
1. The designers intended it to never be service repaired. Ever.
2. They wanted you to eat waffles exposed to old moldy bits that couldn't be properly cleaned out without breaking the damn thing.

So now we have a cast iron waffle maker that sits on the stove to heat up. It's from 1963 and doesn't require it's own power outlet, doesn't have a circuit board, and we can actually make sure it's clean.

If I can't repair it, it's worthless junk. If I can't clean it, it's worthless junk. Capitalism is worthless junk.
