What's the best breadmaker?

[monkeytrousers]

For making multigrain and speciality bread?

Panasonic

Any panasonic? I'm interested now.

I'm looking on Ebay...

Panasonic is the best, or so I've been told. my friend's got one and she makes lovely seeded bread by pre-programming it so the bread is ready by 7.30 every morning - lovely smell fills the kitchen.

mmmm!

Panasonic seems to get all of the best write ups.

Had a kenwood rapide that only lasted a year

Seems that u get what u pay for

Panasonic

our panasonic rules. works brilliantly, easy to clean, looks ok too.

it has a grain/seed tray in the top. i always make multigrain wholemeal and it's yum.

Anyone got the PANASONIC SD-251? Is it ok?

dont do it
youll just eat it

Mine's an SD 253, I've had it almost 2 years - use it most days. Its brilliant!

LOL RedRug!

It's true, I put on over a stone thanks to my breadmaker. It has now been banished to a cupboard whilst I try and undo it's wrongdoings, or mine.

You have been warned!

panasonic came tops in the last which report - cant remember which one - think the only minor niggle was that there was no viewing window.

panosonic SD 253 is definitely the one to buy! We bought ours due to a MN Reccomendation!!!!! They retail at £100 but we got ours online for £80 - cant remember which site though, also this was last christmas............

The only niggle I remember from the Which report is that the bread was so good the testers ate too much.

I like a loaf to be wider than it is tall so it looks like a real loaf of bread. I also think that a viewing window is important. My Morphy Richards cost about £50, has the right loaf shape and a viewing window, and makes great bread. I chose it mainly because it could make 3 sizes of loaves, but I find that I almost always make the med size anyway.

another Panasonic SD-253. Its so easy to use and clean. I use it nearly every day. We do a medium loaf so its lovely to wake up in the morning to freshly baked bread.
Had mine for three years now and love it.
