For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Since we got ours about 2 years ago, we have never bought bread. It's a Panasonic SD-253.
It takes about 5 minutes to prepare the ingredients, put them in and press the buttons. It does take 5 hours for a wholemeal loaf, though, but the smell of baking bread during the last hour is wonderful!
The pan is very easy to clean (non-stick).
If you Google about a bit, you will find some comparisons/opinions of bread makers. That's how we decided on the Panasonic - the general consensus was "it might cost a bit more, but the results are worth it".
If it broke down irreparably, I would go straight out and buy another one.
I'd also like to add my 2ps worth and say the Panasonic is great. My mum, and her 5 brothers and sisters, and her mum, all have had various panasonic models for at least 2 or 3 years and none of them have gone wrong. They all use them regularly. Whenever I go home to visit I always make myself a loaf to take home. THe slices are so lovely and big!!! Makes me wonder why I buy the 'plastic' bread from the supermarkets the rest of the time.
When I have a job and my own place it is up there on my list of things to buy, along with a dvd player, digibox etcetera. How sad is that.
