I bought this as a Christmas gift to myself. I love it! I make bread once a week for my family and it's never been easier. I have also been experimenting with having the machine do all the work, then I form the bread into loaves and bake in the oven
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cuisinart makes a very nice bread maker. I first became interested in bread making when some of my family members developed problems with gluten. So, I looked for a nice bread maker and a good cookbook. The Bread Lover's Bread Machine Cookbook by Beth Hensperger is recommended. I have made a loaf of bread every week since I purchased the Cuisinart. It takes about 3 hours to make a loaf, so keep that in mind. Also, I always set the bread maker on light crust, because I have burned a loaf using the medium crust setting. You can put the machine on bake if the loaf needs more time, but the bread rarely needs to be baked past the light stage. I have made one gluten free loaf, which turned out dense but acceptable. I have had bread over proof, which makes the top cave in slightly after baking, but it still tastes delicious! I always thought bread making was too complicated for me, but the bread machine makes it easy.

We have tried different receipes from the book the crust comes out burnt or so dark and hard even on the light setting. Not sure if the fan is working . If we take the loaf out before its to dark the center isn't done.

This was a gift from my husband to enable me to be able to have fresh yummy bread again. It does an amazing job from start to finish. I have gotten a perfect loaf every time. I am still looking for more recipes but this is the easiest to use, fastest to clean bread maker ever1

Within two or three weeks of our purchase, the baking pan began to jump off the rack during the mixing and kneeling stage! Soon afterward, the motor began straining to kneed dough and would occasionally stall out. We returned it and purchased a machine from another manufacturer.

Paddle Failure

I loved it until the pan failed. Now I can’t beg, borrow or steal a pan. So what, now I throw the whole away? There have been complaints about the paddle system not holding up. I guess that is accurate. I am pretty upset that this is going to the landfill.
