Query: great waffle maker, not as easy to clean as I'd hoped

It's a very good product, works well, sturdy, etc. I like the fact that I can remove the plates and clean them, which gets them much cleaner than most waffle irons which you can't submerse in water. The thing that bugs me is the fact that the first two times that I used the product, food dribbled to the inside of the waffle maker, near the heating element and in between the handle crevices. It took me 20 minutes to clean it because I had to unscrew the handles just to clean in between them. I also would have loved to have been able to have found a waffle iron that's this good quality that also has panini plates instead of just griddle plates. But like I said, it works well and is a high quality product.
