I bought this about a month ago. Its quiet compared to other bread makers, its compact, love the extra compartment for the nuts/ raisins. My only complaint is that the cover is wayyy too close to the bread pan, making it hard to try out other bread recipes than the ones provided with the machine. Other than that, I do not regrets buying this at all :)
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I got this bread machine for Christmas and I have to say that it is awesome. Its like a persision machine that makes and bakes wonderful loaves of bread. There are recipes included to try, and you can add berries or seeds and nuts to it because it has a special feature build in to do that. I find that it runs smoothly and make soft inside and crunchy outside breads, or what ever you choose. There are also different types of bread, and cakes, it is an awesome bread maker
Our old bread machine broke so while looking around for a replacement, we came across this Starfrit newcomer in the bread maker line-up of products. It had all the features we are looking for, and the price was right, so we decided to take the plunge and try the Starfrit bread machine.
We have only owned it for a short period of time but so far we are impressed with the product. Looks like we'll be able to make a wide array of yummy breads! We gave 4 stars instead of 5 simply because, of course, we are unable to comment on the durability of the bread machine but if, in a couple of years, it stills perform flawlessly, I'd be glad to review my current rating and add a fifth star!
