New to bread machines and loving every minute of it!

This bread maker is the first I've owned. I chose it for the price and good rating. What a deal! It works fantastic and I didn't have to break the bank. I highly recommend this machine.

Gluten free bread, the easy way: Great bread maker

We use this at least once a week, if not more. My daughter and I both have Celiac Disease and we make our gluten free bread in this all the time. It is so much more convenient the driving the distance to the local gluten free store. With gas as expensive as it is, we save a lot of money making our own bread.

Great bread machine

It just took a bit of experiments to find out the right amount of each ingredients for making a perfect bread, instead of following the book recipes exactly. For example, it needs four additional Tbps of water for a whole wheat bread in Denver.

This is my second bread machine, and it works fine.

I read the reviews, some of which cautioned against the loaf collapsing. I gave this cheap machine a chance, and I haven't been disappointed yet. I have used it for two weeks now, and have baked white, wheat, fruit/chocolate bread as well as made pizza dough. I am not sure why loaves collapse on other people--perhaps they live in a different climate (humidity, temperature difference?), their water comes form a different source, or they are using different kinds of flour? Since flour prices are on the rise, some companies are starting to use a different mix, with cheaper grains to defray cost. I don't even follow my bread recipies exactly to the "T," and my loaves come out great. My previous bread machine was a real animal when it came to kneading those tough wheat loaves. My only complaint about this one is that it kind of wimps out when the kneading gets tough. It starts to stall a little bit, and just throws the dough around in the pan instead of give it a good beating. But then again, I busted my last bread machine because I threw in a hard frozen strawberry, and my paddle busted off. Advantage of this whimpy kneading is that it will not over exert itself and break. It kind of knows when it should lay off and go easy. Also, there is no squeaking so far with this one when the kneading gets tough. Noise level overall is normal. I like that the bread pan twists in and out. Paddle comes out nicely, and I have less of a gaping hole in my loaf with this one than I did with my last bread machine. The piece of wire they give you to pick out the paddle from the bread is actually useful. The programs and buttons are pretty straight forward. Buttons are kind of dinky, but it doesn't really matter if you are in it for the bread. Having fancy buttons for an enhanced bread making experience is something that might not be an absolute must for most! I don't get why this doesn't work for some people--bread machines seem pretty straight forward and not that complicated. Isn't it just a coil of heat to warm the loaf and a paddle to knock the dough around?
