To be fair to this little waffle maker, while it IS fiddly that's more due to having to dose out 8 scoops of batter and remove 8 separate waffles each time you open it.
It works like any other waffle maker. Preheat it for a few minutes until the light goes out, scoop in the batter, close (and lock) the lid and set a timer for ~3 minutes. Then remove them, ideally with a fork as the cavity is deeper than it looks and it's hard to use a finger like you might with bigger waffles.
The included scoop/brush works but is really cheap. I measured it around 2tsp, so you could probably use a nicely shaped tablespoon and do a quick dunk/plop for each waffle. Even with the included scoop it took a few batches to dial in the amounts, and because of their small size any amount of error will result in a tiny waffle that's either underfilled and soft on top or one that spreads out beyond the grooves.
Half a batch of the big red recipe made about 44 waffles - five full batches and one half.
The waffle maker itself feels solid enough, though it is a bit lightweight and the feet on the bottom aren't particularly grippy so it can slide around a bit when you open the lid. Handle on the front didn't get overly warm even after 20+ minutes of use. There's also a bit of a space on the bottom to wrap the cord around for storage.
Ultimately it's exactly what you'd want - it makes teeny waffles, either for your amusement or for a novelty or for an appetizer or something where you want a bite-size item. Compared to a regular waffle maker it's obviously more work but still kind of fun.
