Bread Maker Reviews
Written by admin on July 5, 2009 – 3:16 am -
The following review of coffee makers is synthesized from ConsumerSearch.com. They have taken the results of numerous other reviews from reputable sources and present the following conclusions.
Best Full-featured Bread Machine
Est. $210
Reviewers agree that the Zojirushi is the best breadmaker overall. Owners say its one- to two-pound loaves are more horizontal-looking than most other machines' taller loaves. The Zojirushi has two mixing/kneading paddles, which experts say is an advantage over single-paddle machines. The Zojirushi has a sourdough starter cycle, three custom-memory settings and a 13-hour delay timer. The Zojirushi gets solid reviews from owners, but we did find a smattering of complaints about durability. If you don't care about creating custom cycles, the highly rated Panasonic SD-YD250 costs much less and also gets great reviews.
Best Basic Breadmaker
Est. $130
The Panasonic bread machine doesn't have custom settings, a jam cycle or a viewing window, but reviewers say these are features you might not miss, especially if you are mainly interested in a breadmaker that's easy to use. The Panasonic bread machine makes horizontal loaves, but with just a single paddle, it sometimes doesn't mix quite as thoroughly as dual-paddle breadmakers. Still, the Panasonic breadmaker gets great scores for its 1.5- to 2.5-pound loaves. It also has a dough-only cycle, which is helpful for making pizza and bagel dough.
Best Budget Breadmaker
Est. $55
The main difference between the Sunbeam 5891 bread machine and pricier models is that the Sunbeam bakes vertical loaves. That means the 1.5- and two-pound loaves will be tall, rather than long and wide like traditional sandwich bread. Still, reviewers say the Sunbeam 5891 is a good, no-frills breadmaker with 12 preprogrammed cycles and a jam cycle. We did read a few complaints about the LCD screen, which reportedly can be hard to read.

The Zojirushi BBCC-X20 is definitely worth the extra money. This is an appliance you will have for a long time, so do not skimp.
