This is my second bread maker and I have made bread many times the old-fashioned way.
I found the bread maker easy to use and produced consistent results in the half dozen loaves made so far. The instructions could be clearer. The user guide has no table of times for each program and cycle. Instead I am annotating the booklet so I can anticipate when to remove the paddle. I am left with blind experimentation to find a program with the proper rising or bake times.
My biggest disappointment is the lack of recipes. The two I have made result in dry, dense loaves. I am looking for a European-style hearty mixed-grain bread.
My attempts to find recipes online have not been successful. My suggestion to Cuisinart is either to sponsor people to develop recipes or to underwrite the development of guidelines for modifying recipes for the bread maker.

This is a fabulous little bread machine. It makes it easy to have homemade bread in my house. The recipe book is easy to follow and there is a great variety to pick from. I would recommend this to anyone who likes fresh bread

Difficult to get a properly shaped loaf of bread. I have to take the bread out after the last rise and put it in an oven. I’ve very disappointed.

Small and fits in limited space. Good recipe booklet, works great! It has easy operating controls. Bread taste great and clean-up is a snap. Love making fresh jam.
