Can any of you guys recommend a breadmaker please?

New to all this but DS loves this type of bread.

Any advise much appreciated.:T

    I love my Panasonic SD253. It has been very easy to use and haven't had a failed loaf. The instructions are full of recipes too and it has a separate nut/raisin dispenser which means it puts these in for you too! I am very attached to this even though I have only had it for a week!

    The cheapest price I found was £79.97 including delivery from Amazon. It was £99 everywhere else. I can't speak for other brands but I would definitely recommend this.
  • I've also got am SD253, currys online are selling it at £76.97 and my local store price matched. I've love it and have never had a duff loaf (well perhaps one but that was user error as I'd forgotten the yeast oh and the one where I forgot to put the paddle in..doh!)

    Here's a third vote for the Panasonic 253:D I've had mine for ten months, made at least one loaf a day since I've had it, and not one duff one yet! Had fun trying out lots of different varieties too.

    if you don't need a nut dispenser then choose the sd252 Amazon price £61.99 free postage and packing.

    I will be saving up for one of these in the near future.

  • I can recommend the Panasonic SD253 as well. I know 5 people who have them (including myself). We've all had them for at least 18 months with no problems at all. I haven't used a shop bought loaf of bread since I got mine.

    I put mine on before I go to work so when I get home I walk into a house that smells of freshly baked bread!

    Ive just done this too! I made Banana Loaf which meant taking the paddle out and then set it to make an ordinary white loaf and forgot to put the paddle back in! I put the paddle back in and reset it and am now waiting to see how it turns out!!!

    Hi Teresita,

    If you have a look at the The Complete Breadmaking Collection you'll find quite a few threads recommending breadmakers.

    :rolleyes: I wouldn't even buy a bread maker. Mrs Bean got one used it a few times and its stuck in the bottom of the cupboard. Bread is cheap enough to buy.....
