First step to world domination: Which breadmaker?

[mr messy]

Any real world recommendations for cheapish breadmaker that works. Doesn't need to be pretty but always helps

Panasonic. Which model depends on what you need. Be warned - you'll never eat mass produced bread again!

Or get into those slim pants......

We have a Panasonic SD-254 which is not bad.

Be aware, though, that you may start to eat a whole load more bread than before !

I think it's just that we came to breadmakers a bit later ...

Or if all you actually want is a

cheapish breadmaker that works

, you could take a look at Cookworks ones (eg this one). They're not fancy, but they work. And they're cheap.

We use the Panasonic sd zb2502bxc, it has a separate yeast and fruit bit on the top and find it really good.
To be honest, it's our first breadmaker, also never bought a loaf since.

We have a Kenwood. Its convenient to use, waking up to fresh bread is lovely, but I hate the hole the dough tool leaves in the bread.

Kenwood Chef Excel for the initial mixing.
Lots of very satisfying hand kneading
In tins, plats, rolls .... whatever takes your fancy
Cook it in the oven.

Still trying to understand why folks need yet another kitchen gadget....

Because it's convenient, just chuck the ingredients in and walk away, lol

We have a Panasonic SD-255. With integrated seed and nut dispenser.

So stick that in yer pipe and smoke it!

 

[MisterStan]

I'm going to agree with Reg; I make bread by hand and prefer it to that made in a bread maker - i've tested against my brother in law's and also a friend down the road.

And I can put seeds or nuts in too!

 

[User482]

The 253 and 254 also have integrated seed and nut dispensers.

I'm not sure what the key differences between them all are. Mr R does like to read all the reviews before buying gadgets, so I'm sure he'd know. It's probably not all that interesting or entertaining...

The 254 does not have an integrated dispenser. It's also a smaller number.
