I have had it for several years. I used oil on it, as directed, the first time. It was fine until recently. I tried to add more oil to it, but it got gummy and sticky.
It sounds like you've reached the point where you will have to thoroughly clean it and start fresh with the oil process. Oil can only be reheated so many times before it gets broken down and gummy.

If you add a 1/4 cup of melted butter or margarine to the waffle mix, they do not stick, mine don't stick at all. There is also a recipe using yeast, butter, etc, that makes excellent waffles, and they do not stick.
SOURCE: waffle mix spilled over entire waffle maker, inside and out
If it is a non-stick surface brushing cold water on with a pastry brush while it is still ver hot and immediately after removing the food will clean the surface easily. As for the outside, if it is a painted surface a non- abrasive cloth with warm water could possible clean it. I would not recommend pulling it apart.

try washing the inside of the waffle maker with a damp rag then dry..

WE HAD AN IDENTICAL PROBLEM. WE WASHED BOTH IRON SURFACES WELL AND THEN APPLIED A LIGHT COATING OF NON-STICK SPRAY. PROBLEM GONE - REPEAT AS NECESSARY AND HAPPY WAFFLING !!!
