I got this for Christmas and this is my second time using it. The first time the loaf was quite dense but this time it was a bit better. Seems to sound like it is straining during the kneading cycle. I think next time I will use my old recipe. I usually just make the dough in the machine then oven bake but this seems to bake it nicely.
Thoroughly enjoy this bread machine. I haven’t had any problems at all with it. I continue to bake bread with this machine twice a week. Perfect bread every time. I love this machine.
1 this product ‘walks’ across the counter so beware. I lost one because it fell off. 2 I put the bread maker in for 10 mins(see initial start-up. Then as soon as that is done I put the ingredients in the bowl, in the bread maker so it warms the ingredients. The 700g loaf reaches the top of the pan and is light and fluffy. If I don’t preheat it looses about 3” and is fairly solid. I did not receive any incentive for this review, but I am open to any....
We woke up Sunday morning and Lori was going to make rolls with her old bread maker and low and behold it gave up the ghost. Now, she makes the best breads and rolls so I said go buy her the best bread maker and I am so glad I bought the Starfrit brand. Awesome features, lightweight, and easy to operate and clean. So happy with purchase!!!
