Help me choose a waffle/sandwich maker?

I'm looking for a good waffle/sandwich maker. But according to various Amazon reviews of various products, they all suck? Oh, come on!! Hive mind, please recommend a good waffle/sandwich maker? Or separate machines, if it comes to that. Regarding the kind of sandwich press: I don't know if I prefer panini, or the kind of sandwich where a square piece of bread gets pressed into two triangles. The end product is similar to me - pressed bread, melty insides, right? But feel free to correct my barbaric ways.

Waffles beyond breakfast?

I just got a waffle iron. Is there anything I can make with it besides the obvious? I like waffles, but I rarely put much effort into making breakfast and probably won't be waking up early to create waffly goodness very often. And even if I did, I have a feeling I'd get tired of waffles after a while.

Is there anything you can make with a waffle iron besides breakfasty waffles, the type you top with butter/syrup/fruit? I've heard of cake waffles and chicken and waffles, but there's got to be more out there, right? I'm especially interested in savory recipes, since breakfast waffles have pretty much got the sweet bases covered.

My iron is "traditional" rather than Belgian - I guess this makes a flatter waffle; would this make a difference in any recipes I try?

Thanks in advance!

What's your favorite waffle recipe? I bought myself a wafflemaker. The recipe it came with is unsatisfactory. I throw myself on your fluffy and delicious mercy, MeFites.
