19-in-1 Compact Bread Maker Machine, 1.5 lb / 1 lb Loaf Small Breadmaker with Carrying Handle, Including Gluten Free, Dough, Jam, Yogurt Menus, Bake Evenly, Automatic Keep Warm, 3 Crust Color

We really like this bread maker—it's easy to use, simple to clean, and runs relatively quietly. It feels sturdy and well-made, though only time will tell on long-term durability. Our only initial complaint was the paddle getting baked into the loaf, leaving a noticeable hole and requiring some effort to remove. However, after contacting the company, they walked me through how to take the paddle out before the baking cycle begins—problem solved! We've recently started a health journey, and being able to bake our own bread without added chemicals is a priority for us. This bread maker makes that possible, and we’re very happy with it.

So far I am in love with this bread machine. There are a lot of more expensive choices but this is about as good as it gets for the value and quality. I'm a diabetic and you know bread is off the menu but not anymore. This bread machine is budget friendly, compact, well built and simple to use. I bought this as an experiment to bring bread and taste back into my life. The bread I make actually lowers my blood sugar. I'm not a doctor or dietician but I monitor my glucose religiously and this machine with my recipe works. I have made over 20 loaves and each time the bread lowers my glucose. Not raise but lowers sometimes by 10 points or more. Of course you want to eat in moderation and not put anything crazy on it. I am making toast, sandwiches, etc. I was going to send this machine back if it didn't perform but it's exceeded my expectations. Definitely 5 stars and I am very happy with it. It's also easy to clean. I hope this helps someone. Here is my bread recipe...1 cup of warm water.2 lightly beaten eggs.2 Tbsp of room temperature butter.1 cup of vital wheat gluten.1/2 cup of flaxseed meal.1/2 cup of oat fiber.1 tsp of baking powder.1 Tbsp of "instant" yeast. Original or traditional type not the rapid raise type.Optional tsp of salt.Add wet ingredients first with the yeast. Mix dry ingredients and then add. (Set the machine to option 1 original setting, medium crust.)

I have been using this daily for the past two months. How did I live without it?I have tried the included recipe book’s instructions for white bread (delicious, soft, dense (no big air bubble spaces), and good texture for toast and sandwiches).I have tried the included book’s recipe for LIGHT whole wheat (my personal favorite, it is a balance of all purpose flour and whole wheat flour— soft, smooth, dense (no air bubble spaces)— flexible for sandwiches (holds together well but NOT AT ALL TOUGH).I have also tried WHOLE whole wheat recipe and it, too, is marvelous. It is a bit dense, does not rise quite as fluffy (this IS WHOLE WHEAT’s normal characteristics, not detriments!). It tastes delicious. Honestly the BEST tasting of the recipes I have tried so far but the texture is a bit too “whole” for my tastes, but EXCELLENT in its own class!I also have stopped the machine before the bake cycle and baked it myself in my own bread pans in my own oven. I preferred the loaf shape of the oven-baked bread but it was not worth the bother, so now I just let the machine do ALL the work including the baking.The slices are perfect toaster and sandwich size.So each morning, I follow the chosen recipe instructions in the recommended order. With a bit of familiarity it takes me NO effort or bother at all to “throw” the ingredients into the bread pan and then choose the appropriate cycle and size.I WALK AWAY and let the machine do ALL the work.I have been a bread maker for many years and have enjoyed it immensely. But it is a PROJECT when you bake bread without a bread machine. A loving and enjoyable BUT TIRING process involving a LOT of mess and clean up.The machine takes care of all that..How did I live without this bread machine?I love this because our children are gone from home now and we do not need a HUGE loaf of bread. This machine has an option to bake a modest-sized one-pound loaf which is perfect for my husband and I. I bake bread now for others as gifts or as barter payments for fresh eggs or some other exchange. This bread freezes perfectly so I have “baked ahead” a bit. I keep the smaller sized loaves frozen in the freezer, well packed, and hand them out as I wish. I have also sliced the bread before freezing and that works very well, too. Packed well, and with the fresh date in mind, the sliced bread does not dry out, crack, warp, or form crystals.However if you need a larger loaf, this machine has the option of a 1-and-1/2 pound loaf. ALL the included recipes have specific instructions and measurements for the smaller 1-pound OR the larger 1-and-1/2 pound loaf. I’ve tried both sizes : perfect!I have not attempted sourdough yet. Next on the list!Buy this machine. I am VERY satisfied with mine.

Update ..After my review the company reached out withindays & offered a replacement along with a refund. Will update on replacement.Bought for DIL only used twice doesn't heat up anymore..disappointed as it had great reviews

I carry this on my boat. I pre-make ingredient packages so all I have to do is add water.This machine makes a 1.5 pound loaf that is perfect sandwich size.It is compact and light weight. And it is low amperage and works fine on the generator.It actually makes a better loaf than my full sized brad maker.On the negative side it is light duty and struggles with the kneed if you get the liquid ratio wrong. However, it has never stalled so only time will tell if the motor or transmission goes out on it.I recommend this product if you are looking for a very compact easyto use bread maker.

So easy to make bread it's like magic. Tastes so good I make bread even though I'm gluten intolerant. Some vices are worth the price. Well designed, well built and easy to keep clean.

I had high hopes for this bread maker due to the fact that it had good reviews. However, I am so disappointed because as you can see from the photo below, everything was nice and brown, except for the top. I contacted the company two or three times and they gave me some suggestions, but none of them worked. So either I have a defective bread maker or this is just the way it is.

Works great. My daughter is making bread all the time since receiving it. Loves it.
