Best Breadmaker Ever

I purchased this Oster 5838 ExpressBake Breadmaker in January 2007 to replace an old unit. I was amazed when I started to use it. The machine is so quite and that features are excellent. Although it is a bit on the large side "luckily I have a huge counter" it's perfect and affordable.

Best buy

Best buy I have made in awhile. Makes great bread and I am completely happy with rhis produce

Still happy after all these years

I got mine at a thrift shop at least 6 years ago. I make at least a loaf a week. I have tried many recipies and the only one I did not like was the basic white bread in the manual. Every other recipe in the manual we have tried was worth making again. I am considering getting a new machine because the rivited bracket on the pan, that snaps into the machine, broke. It still works, but rattles a bit. I know someday soon it will die, although it has been going this way for 3 months.
The loaves are horizontal, but tall. The countdown (timer) feature is great. When I know I will be gone all day, coming home to a crock pot and bread machine full of ready food is calming. However, I can expect pockets of flour in the corner, as it only mixes thouroughly when I push the corner ingredients to the center during the first few minutes of the cycle. (These flour pockets have never noticably effected the overall outcome of a loaf.) The nonstick coating n the pan is still great. The coating on the kneader is pretty well shot. The machine is large, but I think all bread machines are large. The squared off back makes it fit nicely (as much as possible) on the counter.
Definitly a good machine for the price. I am considering upgrading, but cannot tell if an upgrade will be enough of an improvement to bother. It is a great machine for my family. Our 4 girls think that the 58 minute white loaf is the best.

My 2nd Oster

This is the fourth Oster appliance for me with pretty good luck with all so why change? Plus, hard to beat the price. Same problem with both bread machines, their loaves are just too large but slice them in half length ways and make two slices from one works okay. I like the express bake and the quality of bread is equal to standard bake. I have also stopped at last rise and transferred dough to standard bread pans and give about 30 minute rise and bake in oven for 35 minutes. No need to spend up to $300 when this one will work just as good (or maybe better)
