Was looking for a well-reviewed breadmaker a little while back and settled on this one and then I came to buy it today and it was half price!
Very good deal for 50% off.

  • Rapid bake for fast results
  • Gluten Free Programs
  • Bakes 750g and 1 loaves
  • 23 automatic programs for a variety of bread and dough
  • Power interruption protection

Obviously there are more expensive ones which might do a better job but for < $100, can't go wrong.
Some Amazon reviews state that their breadmaker arrived used so make sure you check for that.

      Most end up in landfill, garage sales or op-shops within two years….alongside foot spas, back massagers, pie/waffle/donut makers.

      Most prospective owners see "savings!" up in lights and then realise that there's more to quality bread than an automatic machine and a box of bread pre-mix.

            @muncan: It does the kneading and proofing easily.
            I use second hand.ones but I often put a few pizza doughs through on a Sunday cook while In do other things. I portion and bag them for later in the week (about three day it is at its best) or freeze for much later.

            They drop dough.making down to a milkshakes worth of effort.

      You're not wrong. I bet some people are going to buy this because of the discount, make like 1 loaf of bread, then lose interest and never use it again. It'll just sit in the cupboard for 5 years then get thrown out for hard garbage (not even sold on gumtree).

    I've had this model for years. Got over the bread real quick - small loaves with that crappy defect in the bottom middle from the mixing paddle taking up too much - but still use it often enough for pizza dough, worth $99 for that.

    • ShouldIBuyIt on 04/08/2022 - 22:56

      Same here. Also bought it for $97 couple of years ago.

    • [Deactivated] on 04/08/2022 - 23:15

      In America I've seen bread machines with double paddles that flop over flat after the mixing stage. There's probably still a bit of a bump but nothing like what we have to put up with.

      • dill-pickle on 04/08/2022 - 23:52

          +12

          Ok, didn't know that.

          My solution to the paddle depression is that home made bread is nicest the day it's cooked… so I cut the middle paddle part out and eat that first (because the bread is nicer on day one so the paddle depression bothers me the least), then push the two ends together, and into a plastic bag and suck out the air. This keeps the loaf fresh longer because you're pushing two faces the exact same size against each other, and if you keep taking one slice from each side of the middle, you're not chopping the crust end off which allows more air in.

    Buy a stand mixer and a bread tin. There's literally one extra step and you get a much more usable set of appliances + bread that doesn't have a hole in it.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/08/2022 - 01:03

      I know people who do it that way, knead themselves, no-knead bread too, put clay pots over the top, spray water on, etc. They're always experimenting with this or that, new mixes, etc and that's great for them. When they get it down pat they produce better bread. But if someone just wants to tip the same ingredients in every time without thinking, push the same combination of buttons until they don't need to look at what they're pressing, then walk away and get the same result every time… it's a bread machine that wins.

      Most loaf tins (yeah I'm glaring at you Wiltshire) have an inferior non-stick coating compared to bread machine tins too. And those are the kind of loaf tins most people will buy. I bought a few of their baking trays recently, same coating as their loaf trays, used one just 3x times to bake root vegetables and the coating is already rubbed through in places with the tray rusting.

      I know there's better cookware out there, but that's kinda what I'm getting at… a bread machine is just "nup - don't wanna think about it - just want it to work, right from day one, or I'd rather buy bread"… whereas doing it "manually" lots of peoples eyes glaze over, even though it's nearly the same. They want: "Tip same stuff in every time, press the same 3 buttons every time, walk away, watch cat videos… BEEEEP! Oh yeah… the bread… guess I better get up and make sandwiches."

      • Zephyrus on 05/08/2022 - 09:12

        In response to your comment about loaf tins, just use baking paper. Solves the sticking problem easily.

        But I get your comment, one extra step is 50% more effort, but you don't have to experiment if you don't want to.

        • [Deactivated] on 05/08/2022 - 14:51

          Oh ok, thought it would burn. (I've tried baking paper under baked vegetables and it burned/made a charred mess.) So the only thing I've been using baking paper for is in a bamboo Chinese steamer basket so food doesn't stick to the bamboo, and under cookies in flat trays. (It doesn't with cookies because they're only in the oven for ~20 minutes.)

          • jm010 on 05/08/2022 - 19:51

            @[Deactivated]: Real baking paper definitely shouldn’t burn baking vegies. I use the compostable stuff that has a bit lower heat tolerance, but was still fine at 210° under the sweet potato tonight.

    • nanonoise on 05/08/2022 - 12:39

      Being able to bake nice big loaves, multiple loaves and bread rolls and whatever else is handy too. I just added a temperature controlled seedling heating mat to the kit so we can prove the dough at the perfect temperature for consistency, and bonus I can use it for germinating seeds as well. A few more lettuce plants and I will be able to put a down payment on a house.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/08/2022 - 17:23

          Start with store pre-mixes from the supermarket. Pour in packet + water and press go button.

          Next up, add other stuff to the pre-mix. Fruit and spice, seeds like poppy, maybe cheese and roast veg.

          You can buy various pre-mixes in bulk from baking supply stores or some of those health food bag-your-own stores. Similar to buying coffee beans, bunch of small odd stores in unexpected locations.

          Finally, you can buy flour, instant yeast, salt, etc and follow basic recipes. Difference to a pre-mix is you have to experiment with water %, ratios etc since each flour is different.

  • stevelo on 04/08/2022 - 23:53

      Bread machines come with a recipe book with a few/several recipes including small and large plain white loaves. You put the ingredients in, usually added in a certain order is best, into a tin box coated with a non-stick material. That tin presses down and locks into place with clips onto a motor drive shaft and a heater element in the bottom of the machine. The motor and element are turned on/off by programs in the machine. You select a program and it kneads, rests (proves), and cooks at certain times to try and produce the best result for that item.

      So the tin is slippery on the inside and dead easy to wash out. If a bit of bread "bakes on" you just leave it full of water for a couple of hours then it wipes right off.

      I've owned several bread machines and a few different brands. Sometimes their book recipes don't work in their own machine. So if you have any problems you can download the user manual for other machines and try their recipes instead.

      The most consistent plain-white loaf recipe I've found that seems to work with all machines that I've used, is:

      260ml tepid (slightly warm, not cold, not hot) water
      1 tbsp margarine
      420g plain white flour
      2 tsp sugar
      1 tbsp skim milk powder
      1 tsp salt (don't leave it out - I tried it a couple of times and the bread was yuck)
      1.5 tsp Bread improver powder
      1.25 tsp dry yeast powder

      Sometimes I don't even bother with the tepid water part… just use cold tap water. Usually though I turn the hot tap on and stick a measuring jug under as the water just begins to feel warmer than cold.

      • Presence on 05/08/2022 - 10:53
        +1

        Just wanted to add I own the exact model in this bargain and it costs $2.50 per loaf for ingredients as per the manual. It won't save you a lot of money but the bread is a lot better than the cheap supermarket stuff.

        • [Deactivated] on 05/08/2022 - 14:00

          That price seems quite high. Flour is obviously the greatest quantity ingredient, costs $1.10 per kg for a 2kg bag, and there's often extra in the bag… So I usually get 5 loaves from 2kg. ($2.20 divided by 5 = 44 cents.) The other ingredients are tiny amounts. Maybe they're calculating using top brand names. I just buy the cheapest flour. Doesn't seem to make a difference.

          • Presence on 05/08/2022 - 14:17

            @[Deactivated]: I did the maths myself from Coles. I used bread flour, not normal white flour.

            It needs milk powder, yeast, oil, sugar, salt so even though the amounts are tiny it does add up.

            Of course you could buy ingredients cheaper from other stores.

            • [Deactivated] on 05/08/2022 - 14:34

              @Presence: Yeah I think bread flour has the improver already included. I forget now.

              It was only after we got a bread machine we realised we were going to ColesAldiWorths every few days for milk and bread. When we started buying the dry ingredients (which included milk powder) we started mixing up our own milk too. Suddenly we weren't going to ColesAldiWorths 2-3 times a week, which meant less impulse buying from us wandering through the store "while we're here" plus our petrol cost went down. So while a loaf may still be pricey, it tasted better, and meant savings in other ways due to buying less food and wasting less fuel.

      My wife and I have baked hundreds of loaves over the years, one every 2 or 3 days. The novelty and saving never wears off. ;-)

      Actually the plain white loaf from our bread machines tastes as good as the "country style" ones (curved top with flour sprinkled) from AldiColesWorths that cost $3 to $7, and their cheapest plain white square loaves (if we ever do have to buy it for some reason) that we used to eat all the time, now feels like eating cardboard.

    • opposablethumbs on 05/08/2022 - 09:51

      Have used ours every second or third day now for a few years (family of 3).

      The wholemeal and rye loafs we use it to bake are preferred by all of us compared to store bought. The Laucke packet mix for brioche also gives a great result for the odd weekend treat.

      Timer is very useful for set and forget, to get fresh baked loaf ready for when we wake up in the morning.

      Once you get used to using it and optimise your recipes via a bit of experimentation, very little effort to get consistent, yummy bread and very convenient for pizza dough too.

      YMMV

    Some Amazon reviews state that their breadmaker arrived used so make sure you check for that.

    I bought a Panasonic online and a Retravision store tried that on. Opened the package, saw the box seal had been broken, didn't even lift the flaps any further… Phoned the store it was shipped from. He swore it had not been used, that they only open them before shipping to check all parts are there. So said ok, hung up, opened the flaps, hmmm, look at that… phoned him back… "So you open the box to check the contents before shipping?" "Yeah." "So why is the yeast measuring spoon missing and the tin have FLOUR in it from baking at least one loaf?" Him: "Can't you just wash the tin and order another spoon from Panasonic? it's only 3 or 4 dollars." I couldn't believe it. Contacted Panasonic and the spoon would be about $17 delivered. Which would have wiped out the sale discount which was the only reason I'd purchased at that time.

    So I phoned him again, asked him to send me a spoon out of another one… "But then I can't sell that one as new because it's been opened." SERIOUSLY!? So you send ME an opened one, used, parts missing, now say you CAN'T SELL opened ones AND expect me to buy a replacement spoon… Then he whines… "But you got it at a good discount. And what are we supposed to do with ones people open and return because they change their mind!?" LOL - unbelievable. Here's an idea… How about NOT REFUNDING when someone BAKES BREAD IN IT and decides to STEAL THE MEASURING SPOON that you… you know… checked was in the box before shipping it out!?

    Then he wanted me to pay return shipping AND pay to ship the replacement AFTER receiving the first one back. Now taking it well over full price.

    Fed up, I contacted HO, told them all the above, how they'd outright lied because the measuring spoon was missing, had said it wasn't used but had flour residue in the tin, thinks online orders is a good method of disposing of his used or display stock at full price, wouldn't dream of doing the same to someone who walked into the store in person though, and now wants me to pay shipping both ways while acting like I'm in the wrong for expecting a new appliance when I buy… a new appliance.

    HO made him phone me, arrange for return shipping at his expense, and send me an unopened one. I could tell he was gritting his teeth the entire call, still pouting and acting like I was ripping HIM off. Oh and I nearly forgot… when I taped the outer packaging back up ready for the courier to pickup, I saw a nasty black scratch on the white plastic lid which would have been impossible to miss, even if they didn't notice the yeast spoon was missing.

    Retravision has since left NSW.

      Australian retailers: why aren’t people supporting local stores?

      Also Australian retailers: see above.

        Bing Lee recently tried to the similar for me, bought many items in the past 7/8 yrs, never ever.

        Yeah look, if it was my store I'd sell returned products at cost. It's not worth earning a bad rep over. A customer who gets a cheap price because a product was a display, used once, or missing a part, is going to tell a few people about their bargain, forget, and shop there again. A dissatisfied one will tell a few dozen people and never shop there again - and the store will never know why they lost customers and closed down. (I did a sales course years ago where they had researched figures similar to that… people share positive experience with a few people, but negative ones get shared with 3x times that number.)

    Anyone make bread like the 'Coles Bakery High Fibre Low GI 7 Seeds and Grains Bread Loaf ' in the bread maker? Or another very healthy recipe? How does it turn out/tips?

      Packet mixes are too expensive for us, so the only ones we ever tried had been marked down for being close to use by date. They all failed where plain white never did. So maybe it was due to the use by date, but it was too expensive to keep risking failure. If you make enough of it, try looking for a bulk supplier. We found a wholesale place that supplied bakeries. They sold… 25kg bags I think it was (similar size to a bag of cement) of premix. White, wholemeal, etc. You just add water and yeast. Cheaper than per box at supermarkets. We didn't use it up fast enough though, and the eating quality got less over time as you used up the bag. So we went back to plain white.

    I have this bread maker. Have been using it for about 10 years and still going strong, I think its fine. You can pull the paddle out after the last knockdown which pretty much gets rid of the hole in the base

    I haven't made normal bread for a while in my bread maker as I don't eat much bread, but I do like making raisin bread in mine. So much better than the overpriced stuff at Coles/Woolies and tastes amazing - more like the "cafe" style raising breads.

  • itsmattaitken on 05/08/2022 - 12:53

    The box the breadmaker came in had been opened before and resealed. The tray had flour or dried dough in the corner which is very concerning for me as I am coeliac and even a tiny amount of gluten sends me to hospital.

      The order from this deal?

      • itsmattaitken on 05/08/2022 - 14:12

        Yup

        • superforever on 05/08/2022 - 14:28

          Are you sure from Amazon AU not from third party?

    • Slave1 on 05/08/2022 - 14:56

      Hang on, there's a review in the listing with your exact words from 28 July…are you sure it's not from a third party? Mine has just been delivered but am not at home to open it.

    Just received mine as well from this deal . Upon inspection, the box seemed to have been resealed. Also the metal parts in the bread maker seems scratched pretty bad, the 3 pin plug and it's cable tie seems loose in the box. It all indicates either it was used or been tested. I am missing parts like the fruit dispenser, measuring spoon, measuring cup, blade hook. Looks like I m returning it

      I hate that. I posted my Retravision experience above. New should = new. When a store tries to get me to accept an open one and I refuse, they always look at me like I have two heads. But most times I've bought an opened appliance there's been something wrong with it. There's no way they test them upon return (e.g. with a bread machine by baking a loaf) before shipping it off to someone else… So your warranty can be rejected for what the previous person did. They might have dropped it down some stairs, panicked they might have broken it, so send it back unused for a refund just in case then buy another one a month later. Or mixed their kids playdough or cooked meth in it. Who knows. It's why I won't buy some things online and will go to a store to pick out a sealed unit, with no obvious dings in the box, etc.
