Two days before Christmas our 30 year old pizzele maker died. This is
tragic as my wife's pizzeles are a prized gift that many look forward to
every years. She makes three or four types (vanilla, chocolate, anise, and
this year orange)

A friend offered hers (used only once) and we tried it. No go. Most of the
brands of pizzele/waffle makers in the stores are crap. The pizzele is too
thick, the waffle portion is not deep enough, etc. We have standards to
uphold! The original was made by C. Palmer Manufacturing and that is what I
want. None to be found locally.

I ordered the Model 1000 from www.fantes.com as they are a good outfit and
it was $15 cheaper than other places. We were amazed that it is exactly the
same as it was made 30 years ago. Still made in the USA, still high
quality. Some people do care.
