[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like to bake and maintain my own sourdough starter, but it's often hard to justify the effort involved in making a homemade loaf. I typically use no-knead recipes to minimize the work required, but I often wonder what you lose by not kneading the dough. This little machine makes it very easy to bake bread including all the proper kneading. Getting it started is trivial...just dump in the ingredients in the order specified, select the proper settings, and press start. A basic recipe can take just a few minutes to get going, and a few hours later you have hot bread. I've made a french loaf, and also used it to knead and rise a sourdough loaf that I then baked in the oven and both attempts resulted in excellent results. There are very few things in life better than fresh baked bread and this machine makes it so easy.
I would recommend this to a friend!

this thing bakes the crust too dark even at the lowest setting. I think the thermostat is faulty and bakes at a higher temp than it's supposed to

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a bad machine. The loaves are much smaller than the conventional machine even when I use the same amount of ingredients.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought my first Cuisinart Compact Automatic Bread Maker in 2018 and have been using it ever since to make ALL bread for my family. It is a wee bit tired at this point and I am getting ready to order another one. It has worked flawlessly. When people say that it doesn't "bake bread" the way they want it, it is undoubtedly the recipe or the quantity of certain ingredients that is the problem. Although I have found that in many cases, the actual baking time listed in the recipe book is far too long. I usually stop the machine with about 37 minutes remaining on the number 1 cycle. Now that we are going to start milling our own wheat berries, I will be experimenting and expect some hockey pucks before I get just the right formula, but with my new replacement machine (which I will be ordering) I plan for another 9 years of beautiful fresh bread! Thank you, Cuisinart!!
