This Bread Maker Lets You Make Fresh Bread at Home Loaves made in a Bread Making Machine taste just like the ones Mom or Grandma used to make without the tedious and time-consuming tasks of kneading and rising.

Pop the bread out, let it cool a few minutes and start slathering on the butter. The Bread Maker is totally programmable, so there's no room for error. The LCD display and digital controls make it simple to cook three different sizes of bread loaves. You can even choose if you want the crust to be light, medium or dark.

I got this bread machine for Christmas. The first three loaves I made with it all came out divinely, then I went to use the whole wheat program (program #2), and the machine just sat there. I thought for sure it was broken, or not connected properly and I tried to shut it off and reset it - no way you can do that - it finally started turning after 30 minutes, but the ingredients never turned into dough, and the result was a mess.
I decided to try the whole wheat program again, and the same thing happened. This time I called customer service right away, they answered right away, and the lady told me that on program 2, it is designed to wait for 30 minutes, before it starts turning - an omission from the manual, which should have said that.
Anyway, I'm trying program 2 again. We'll see how it turns out.

This breadmachine has been very frustrating. We bought it from Sears about a month ago and have made about 7 loaves of bread with it. Only one loaf has come out right. We have used various recipes and adjusted the amount of water as suggested but 6 of the loaves sank deeply in the center. We had a different machine years ago which stopped working. Most of the recipes were used in our other machine without problem. This Kenmore machine goes back to Sears tomorrow.

years ago I had a breadman pro machine and for reasons not to be mentioned here I got rid of it. now I decided to get back into the bread baking habit. so I went around looking for a new machine and also looked on amazon at what is available and at what prices. basicly no machine is perfect and no machine gets perfect reviews. so I decided to settle for the sears machine because it was cheap and I could buy it at the nearest store, and of course return it if need be. I like whole wheat bread but their recipe up to no good. my bread came out like a rock, hard and with no taste. so I tried the next recipe, and that was with honey. no good either. hard, tasteless and it took 4 hours to finish, plus you cannot make a one pound loaf. why do they say it on the box but have no ingredient sizes for it? anyway, I decided to make a whole wheat loaf from one of my own recipes. I put all the ingredients according to the machine rules and put on program 7 which is for dough only. after 20 seconds of kneading when the machine beeps I took the dough out, without touching it I poured it into a baking pan of the right size and covered it for 45 minutes to rise. I did oil the pan to be sure of no sticking. then after the rising period I put it into a cold oven, yes, a cold oven. turn the oven on to 360f for 30 minutes, at the 30 minutes time I raised the temp to 400f for another 10 minutes. it was the best loaf I baked so far in recent memory. it was even better than the bread I was kneading by hand before I bought the machine. as for bread machine manufacturers recipes, ignore them. most of them are not good in my opinion. even when I had the breadman pro machine I always had to change some items in the recipe to get the bread up to eating standard. if you are new to baking with machines, do yourself a favour, take ordinary recipes and put them into the bread machines according to their line, then bake it in your own oven. its easier than to battle with the machine for a perfect bread. not to talk about the fact that you get the bread at half the time.
