Kitchen Gourmet Waffle Maker Release Latch Spring Replacement

Introduction

Is your Kitchen Gourmet Electric Waffle Maker not closing?

Our guide will help you resolve this issue, taking you step by step through the process of removing the interior waffle cover to uncover the spring that helps close the waffle maker.

Oftentimes, as the years pass and the making of delicious waffles takes a toll on the release latch, the spring's bounce wears off. This makes it harder for you waffle-lovers to open up the waffle maker at all.

Some signs of a broken latch are: the waffle maker lid does not close, the handle does not bounce back, or the lid opens on its own.

Before using this guide, ensure your Waffle Maker is unplugged and cooled down as its part of the process and makes things a lot easier for you!

Are you ready? Let's go!
