Which is the best home breadmaker?

The kenwood is a big machine though - check out the dimensions..
We just leave ours out, but if you were to put it away, the height of it may not fit in your cupboards!0 -
I voted other brand, primarily because I managed to get this one from Argos on sale at £14.99. Once you get used to it, it makes lovely bread.
The only real point being, I would prefer them to be long loaves, rather than high, and also I wish there was some way of baking rolls with it. You can remove the prepared dough, and put in the oven though.
Perhaps that is unreasonable, as it was a good price, and makes good bread.0 -

Will do. Hoping to use it every day, so will most likely leave it out.In the middle of difficulty lies oppurtunity0 -
We had a Panasonic SD252 and replaced it with a Kenwood BM450 about a year ago, they are both great, I really couldn't choose between them. The only thing with the Kenwood is that I've hardly made any wholemeal bread (which we used to live on), haven't found the right recipe yet! Love the gingerbread that it makes.0

Mines currently £37.89, so I did get a bargain. It was cookworks, argos's own make.

There is another more expensive one by them which is currently 1/2 price £39.99 (was £79.99). I haven't used this model, so cannot comment:
