"kenwood bread machine" star star star star star We have used this bread maker for lots of different types of loaf. Most have been made by my husband, who is not usually very interested in cooking. All have turned out well, and we have tried a few variations to the recipe book ingredients successfully. The one time we tried making a cake, it did not mix very well, and I think cakes are better off being made in the conventional way. The level markings on the measuring beaker are a little bit ambiguous, but this is a small negative point for a generally good product.
"Great bread and cakes" star star star star star I have had this machine for 2 months and have not bought bread since. My husband is the bread eater and he was the first to use it. He does not cook and is very impressed with this machine. The marmalade cake and tea breads are delicious. I use packet mixes as well as recipes from the kenwood book.
"This machine makes excellent bread" star star star star star I previously had a Panasonic bread maker which I thought was very good and served me well but this Kenwood is far superior. The bread has a better texture even on the fast bake option. The only negative point is that the glass lid has fragile plastic hinges and because the glass lid lifts off for cleaning you have to very careful. The hinge broke within a couple of weeks and Lakeland organised a replacement machine immediately. I am now very careful how I open and close the lid but perhaps that is what I should have done in the first place! I make bread every day and despite the "hinge" episode I would recommend this machine as an excellent bread maker.
"Kenwood Bread Maker" star star star star star This is my first bread maker and so far really pleased I purchased it. We have not bought shop bread since. Rapid bake is brilliant for our busy life styles. Bread consistency has been good every time and recipes really easy to follow. I'm pleased its not too noisy. It looks good in the kitchen as well with the rest of my stainless steel. I would highly recommend this product.
"" star star star star star This is the best bread maker I have owned, it looks good and produces a perfect loaf every time, with its easy one touch control panel and lots of different bread cycles you won�t be disappointed and it looks so good as well, when you get your machine you can order the round bread pan which is great for baking fruit bread etc�
