Definitely my breadmaker (but - confession time - my wife does most of the cooking). <searches wildly for the "embarrassed" emoticon - fails badly>

Anyway, we have brought almost no bread in the time (several years) I have had it (as a Christmas pressie).

Regards,

White

I wish I used my breadmaker more... I always forget I have it and so used to just getting bread out the freezer as and when I need it!

Oh here's the embarrassed smilie by the way... q45

I use mine regularly-at least twice a week. Feeling very noble, as I can't eat bread, due to a wheat intolerance. Am not keen on the gluten free/rice flours, so bake for evreyone else to eat... q12

I haven't used mine for a few weeks (shame on me) so it's probably seized up again. I have to take a pair of pliers to the thing that goes around at the bottom, under the pan. It always does the trick!

I am thinking of getting a bread maker. Can anyone recommend a good one?

I've had a panasonic for years-love it, and wouldn't be without it.

Mine's a Morphy Richards, I have had it several years and am pleased with it. I had stopped making bread when we started the regime, as I couldn't see the point of nice homemade bread and no butter. I have used it twice this week, as home made bread is nicer than shop bought, and I need to use up some eggs (I put an egg in with my other ingredients).

According to my gannets, homemade bread WITHOUT butter is much nicer, as you can fully appreciate the tastes and textures of the bread, and not have them masked by the butter.
