It’s compact and easy to use. Plus it has some amazing recipes for you to try! I’ve used it multiple times now and each time the bread comes out wonderfully.

While the machine works well, I am disappointed the 'light' setting still gets the crust so dark I have to 'saw' through it. Not my first bread machine so I can compare.

I bought this t o replace my broken bread machine. I have many cuisinart appliances, so I like the brand. This bread machine, makes a vertical loaf, (I prefer horizontal) but I can adapt. What I don't like is the crust color, even when you choose light, is dark and the bread is over-baked and dry. very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’re sorry to hear that your bread machine did not meet your expectations. For a lighter crust and softer bread, many customers find adjusting the crust setting or reducing baking time slightly can help. If you’d like additional guidance or assistance, our Consumer Assistance Center is available at 1-800-726-0190.

Been testing the recipes provided during purchase. After at least 6 loaves of basic white bread using all brand new ingredients, there's still room for improvement. Medium crust is still light and loaves seem so dense regardless of size.

The bread maker is very easy to use. The bread it made turned out very nicely. The size of the bread maker is perfect for a smaller area. I would definitely recommend this product.
