Unfortunately, however good the produced loaf will be, the poor design of those pan holding clips mean that I am not terribly confident about using the timer function. In addition, the booklet has not made clear to us the distinction between rapid bake and quick loaf. The problem of the bread pan popping out was solved by bending the clips, but with the side effect of making it quite awkward to remove. Even though I had looked at other places for bread makers, when I saw this one at Lakeland - I had confidence.

Seem like a design fault to me, the bread pan is very flimsy and I guess it gets knocked out of shape during kneading. Take advantage of the 15-hour delay timer or, if you're short of time, the 85-minute ECO bake programme is one of the fastest around, saving you time and money. The first 500g loaf is in preparation as I type this and so far, I've had to reposition the pan 3 times as it lifts and pops out of it's proper position when kneading which leaves the motor running but without the blade doing anything. The additional 5 "personal" programme settings allow you to set your own timings for each of the stages involved in bread making (pre-heat, kneading, rising and baking).The issues I have experienced with this include the fact that the bread always collapses and there is always a hole at the bottom of the bread as the mechanism can not be removed. Measuring cup and measuring spoon Programmes:basic, wholewheat, sweet, French, sandwich, dough, cake, jam. The one time we tried making a cake, it did not mix very well, and I think cakes are better off being made in the conventional way. And the crust and base weren’t overdone because the breadmaker’s “keep warm” function worked better than most thanks to the fan in the lid which gently circulates warm air. The clear, bright display panel is easy to see but the controls could do with more written graphics.
