What Others Say
Suspect durability
I bought this because I didn't see a BAD review, and the price was right. The first batch I made, using a recipe that came with the instruction manual turned out pretty tasty. Then a week later I tried another recipe. All the ingredients went in, put the pan in, set the program, then ??? The paddle started making a sqeaky noise on every turn. There was no movement from the paddle after the first minute. Took the pan out, reseated, etc. I think it's a dud.
Our Meals would not be the same without our Salton Breadmaker.
Friends who have eaten bread and rolls that I have made with the Breadmaker think I am an excellent cook. They do not know that it is the machine that does the work - I just follow the instructions and let the machine go to work. Even the most in-experienced cook can make delicious breads and rolls to enhance their meals. I highly recommend the Breadmaker.
Worst bread machine I've ever used.
I've been using bread machines for many years with great results. Recently my Sunbeam bread machine geve up the ghost and I replaced it with the Breadman since I've read positive reports about the brand. That was a mistake! In spite of varying the quantities of ingredients, the ratios, the cycle options, etc., I have yet to have the machine generate anything but a stubby, dense loaf that is not always fully mixed. If I remove the dough from the machine and let it rise in the kitchen, the bread comes out the way I expect.
Perhaps the rise cycles are too short. I don't know. But I would not recommend this machine for a paperweight.
No Customer Service
After 8 months of use the bread pan began to leak around the rivets in the bottom. When I contacted the manufacturer they said they would send me another pan . It is one month later and I haven't received the replacement . They are saying that the part is on backorder and have no idea when it will be available. I would not buy from this manufacturer due their non existent customer service.
BreadMan -- Good Bread, Fast!
I never thought I would own a breadmaker, especially now with the "evil carbs" craze that America seems to be having these days. However, with a super $30 deal, it was definitely an impulse "why not" purchase. I have to say, the bread is pretty good and pretty easy to make! For our first try, we bought a regular old white bread machine mix at the grocery store and gave it a whirl. The directions are fairly easy to follow, and we used the "super rapid" mode so we could have it ready in an hour (we're impatient). It came out pretty well! Since then we have been more patient and used the longer cycles and the bread is even better. Also, the machine has a "dough mode" which you can use just to make cookie or pizza dough which I find pretty ... Read More
