Rating: - great bread machine
This is a great bread machine. It is everything the manufacturer said.
I have made several different types of bread, including the dough cycle, and all worked well.

I haven't used it yet, simply because it has such an odor to it. When I opened it up, it smelled like it had been sprayed by a skunk. I washed the pan and have tried to wipe down the inside, but it still stinks. I don't want to make anything in it - because who knows if the smell will transfer and make stuff taste skunky. Anyone else have that issue? If so, what can you do to make the horrid smell go away?

Well, I've been reading some of the reviews. Guess I'd throw in my 2c. I've had mine for about 14months. I make around 1 loaf of stone ground whole wheat bread per week. Fwiw, this is my second machine (had a DAK for the first). For the most part the loaves come out very well and of consistant texture. I have two complaints: first the tabs that hold the pan down bent, so it's not all that secure. Some users have had trouble with the pan coming out of the the motor. I haven't had that problem, but can see it happening (I make only 2-lb loafs- maybe the extra weight holds it down[?]). Secondly, and ... Read More

I am assuming the motor just isn't powerful enough. You could smell the motor running hot! Enough already! I will be shopping around for ... Read More
Rating: - New Breadmaker and a new Baker
I bought this breadmaker a year ago and found that it made the bread okay but I had to try to turn it on several times because the menu was so complicated. Also, the mixing function on my breadmaker does not work. I have to start the churning process myself to make sure it works. I wish I had better success with it because I wanted to make my own bread each week with my new machine but as it is I have only used it a couple of times because it does not work.
