I have searched tirelessly for a bread maker with 14 different settings, from regular to gluten free, and finally found one that makes the perfect bread for me as a celiac. It's not too dense or dry, but airy and delicious. This bread maker has exceeded my expectations!

Now it's incredibly easy to make bread. Just pour in all the ingredients and go. It's both easy and straightforward. What a fantastic purchase!

My wife enjoys it.

We are extremely pleased with our bread machine, it functions wonderfully. We appreciate the included recipes in the booklet, as they produce excellent results if you don't have your own.

I made two loaves of bread. The first one turned out fine with no issues. However, the paddle got stuck in the second loaf and I had to use shop tools to remove it from the machine. Despite the paddle issue, both loaves tasted good.

I have a Cuisinart bread machine at my other house, and I got this one for my second place. I've made regular white bread, banana bread, English muffins dough, pretzel dog dough, and doughnut dough so far. I'm not a baker, but everything turned out great with this versatile machine. The manual could be better and is written in poor English, but otherwise, it's a great machine. You can figure everything out from the manual, and there are tons of online recipes to try. I even included pictures of the English muffins I made today with it. They turned out light, fluffy, and very tasty. The machine did most of the work, and I just rolled out the dough, cut the muffin pucks, and fried them in a cast iron pan. And, presto, I had muffins for eggs Benedict!

Honestly, there's nothing my Cuisinart can do that this one can't, and I've only tried a few of the modes it has.

I did see one reviewer comment that they couldn't get the bread pan out of the machine. It's clearly explained in the manual that a simple counterclockwise twist will unlock it. It's exactly how my Cuisinart works, so unless theirs was broken, they didn't try very hard. I recommend grabbing the top edge of the pan to twist vs the handle, as the handle is thin and flexes when twisted. The rim is more solid, just be careful if the pan is still hot. It will probably loosen up a bit over time if you really want to use the handle, but I'd stick with the upper rim.

Other than improving the manual a bit, I can't say anything bad about this bread machine. It's been a pleasure to use every time.

I am a fan of the machine, but I do wish it included settings for basic and white bread. The recipe booklet is average, and I have found better recipes online for creating a larger, better-rising loaf of bread.
