"Great!" star star star star star I'd been wondering about buying a breadmaker for ages, but was always put off by the cost, size and by people who said they never used the one they had bought. However, with a lot of Lakeland vouchers begging to be used, I decided to take the plunge. I used it for the first time on Friday. It is now Sunday, and so far I have produced two loaves on the Eco setting, rolls and three 12" pizzas. The rolls gave me the best of both worlds - the machine kneaded them whilst I got on with other cooking, and then I knocked them back and shaped them. I don't think I'll buy pizzas again - the bases were so much better than shop bought ones. Very happy with this purchase so far.
"Whoopee!" star star star star star Just turned out the first large loaf (1kg) in the new machine. Beautiful results with everybody gathering for a slice. Good open textured,lightly browned, with a fine even crust. The machine is not cheap but it is value for money when the results are so tempting. Never mind cake! "Let them eat bread"!
"The Perfect Loaf" star star star star star Although it's a lot of money, it's well worth the investment.The texture is light, for a white premium loaf, and the crust, crusty. (That's for the smallest size, 500g, loaf.)Having used another brand of bread maker, and then gave up due to density of the loaf, I came across this one. The thermafan makes a huge difference and it's a doddle to use. All-in-all, it's worth it!
"Makes great bread!" star star star star star This was a replacement for a previous slightly different Kenwood bread machine, which Lakeland kindly replaced for me when the lid broke. I can recommend this bread machine to all - I make bread every 3 or 4 days and every time I have success. The smell of fresh cooked bread throughout the house is wonderful. Highly recommended.
"Love this machine" star star star star star Bought the machine last week from one of the stores and love it, I have had bread machines over the years but this machine in my opinion bakes the best bread ever and so easy to use, Looks and tastes as if its been bought from the bakery, I think the secret is the fan assisted oven, Love it
