"i am very disappointed as i was very excited to find a cheap blender with good reviews"

"a lot of wasted money on this and thought i was getting a good deal"

"it is also comparable to more expensive versions so i'd suggest pocketing that extra money and choosing this one instead of the blenders shown on tv or instagram"

"only problem is i can't fit my hand in to clean it but that's nothing a £1"

"i used to have a very expensive kenwood blender but got so fed up with it leaving lumps in my smoothies and it was big and heavy and so hard to clean!"

"so it can still be used but it is so much more difficult and not the easy blend in the bottle and take off that i was hoping for"

"i unwound it and put it back in but it still does not work"

"the noise increased and it's now a lot noisier than my old one complete waste of money"

"so disappointed this was a total waste of money"

"lumps remained in all blends it was nowhere near as good as my £15 kenwood extremely disappointing "

"but not even 3 weeks into having it it leaks when i use it and i end up with milk all over the base i just can't be bothered with the hassle and will be throwing it away and ordering a better quality one"

"do not recommend this product as fire hazard"

"i've had it for like 3 months now and i've made juices with it smoothies with it and also powdered nuts like almonds and cashewnuts with this machine!"

"it probably isn't powerful for chopping nuts finely but it does most soft fruits and vegetables and so it does what i want it to do"

"i have blended fruits to make smoothies and for veggies mostly used spinach and avocado which it does fine"

"but quite noisy when you add frozen fruit so i defrost first"

"therefore if you are expecting a really powerful smoothie maker you might be disappointed but for our first purchase i was reasonably happy and it does the job"

"so unfortunately it's gotten worse and i found it increasingly difficult to remove the lid with the blade so i ended up sticking this sadly in the cupboard"

"so far i've been blending frozen fruit spinach leaves ice regular fruits milk yogurt etc"

"unhappy customer!"

"the blade and unit get hot the noise it alot louder and there is plastic residue left in the base after use and a burning plastic smell"

"i twisted the clean spare bottle into the unit pressed down and removed the blade housing easily"

"the only two downsides to this product are that you have to keep your finger on the button whilst blending trivial i know and that sometimes after blending some of the smoothie has leaked down into the base of the blender although im not sure if its actually meant to do this"

"i've not tried to blend ice or frozen ftuit yet but i'd be surprised if it is a problem"

"buy a packet of frozen strawberrys and fill the nutribullet 2 3rds up"

"life changer very easy to make smoothies now it can take frozen vegi or fruits which produce cold juice straight away"

"for some more dense frozen fruits such as strawberries or the bunches of frozen spinach from the supermarket i have found that they will only fully blend if i start off by mimicking a "pulse" with the blender first before holding in the button to complete blending"

"i was blending some sliced frozen kiwi in a smoothie which has broken the blend mechanism"

"this is a nice idea but poor execution"

"the blender cap can get stuck in the machine sometimes and then it's very messy trying to unscrew it without unscrewing the bottle and pouring smoothly everywhere"

"the downsides are though when the smoothie is too thick the blades would stuck and it is easier to wash using a bottle brush as hands wouldn’t reach the bottom of the bottle"

"it just doesn't have the power for these types of smoothies and mine has worn badly around the plastic parts which interlock during operation due to excessive vibration"

"tried to blend kale with fruit and ended with a lumpy mess"

"i had the same one that lasted 4 years and sadly broke"

"i also blend frozen fruits and it cones out perfect"

"the only issue here they should reinforce somehow the bottle plug so that what you see in the last photos does not happpen "

"some fruit like coconut doesn't break down so well and can be a bit lumpy not sure if this is to do with the motor or the blades or even a bit of both but i expected this"

"today my breakfast smoothie was oats almond milk a spoonful of almond butter cinnamon and a couple of dates which are notorious enemies to the blender and in less than 6 seconds it was perfectly smooth!"

"lower price than most means a less powerful motor 300w compared to 600w on some 'big brand' blenders but it hasn't made any difference to mine so far"

"reason for giving 4 stars and not 5 is that after one year of using this product one of the bottles have started to leak but this isn't a major issue as it only leaks when drinking from the bottle its still fine when blending i can always buy another bottle"

"the blades lid got stuck into the blender it makes a terrible sound"

"turns out the blade you screw on top of the bottle to blend is extremely flimsy and just leaks so i can't use it anymore"

"it will only blend harder fruit veg when adding a sufficient amount of liquid"

"what i really like about this is that the blend button simply won't work unless the bottle is locked in properly meaning you can't have any silly accidents where it comes open and spills all over you like some other brands out there!"

"very noisy but it’s what you’d expect"

"worse than that the spinning mechanism has grated against itself and is now damaged so it doesn't work"

"terrible piece of kit"

"the mechanism on my first one stopped spinning so have replaced it though so if you're willing to make some compromises i would say it is worth it"

"the only thing i would say is that as with many plastic appliances the blender will initially smell of burning plastic but this should subside"

"it isn't a juicer but it can deal with frozen soft fruit chopped rhubarb chopped apples etc my 13 year old son has greatly reduced using the soda stream which is brilliant and loves making himself shakes and juices before and after school"

"the only thing bad is that the motor isn't that powerful so if you plan on using frozen fruits or ice you will notice the drop in power"

"this blender is great for a starter personal blender it has handled all vegetables and fruits i've thrown into it easily and most frozen fruits also"

"also you can't buy just replacement lids"

"i looked on there website and they do not sell replacement seals"

"double check on that one spareparts availible for purchase check as i m doing mostly smoothies handfull of spinach leafes and 1 ripe banana water and blend "

"1 thing i will say about the bottles is make sure you clean the lids thoroughly because there is a bit in them that can be susceptible to mould or other nasty things you don't want to drink with your smoothie"

"just now i went to make my smoothie and the base stayed in the machine as i twisted the container to come out the smoothie went over everything my clothes my floor and its a huge sticky mess"

"i would of returned however my uncle had flattened the box and ripped it apart for the recycle bin"

"noise level is a bit high for my sensitive ears but for me it's a minor issue"

"1stly it is so loud we have had a noise complaint from 2 houses away!"

"i use it predominantly to prepare my post workout shake for the morning and my mid afternoon mrp"

"i had two which broke quickly from kenwood the button wasn’t a continual press down and may have been as a result of overfilling and leaving on"

"i am very disappointed as i was very excited to find a cheap blender with good reviews"

"i can report that the printing on the bottles does become faded over time and frequent use but this is not a major problem at all"

"i've had this blender a couple of years whilst i initially used it every day i now use it only occasionally and whilst it does the job it s not as hardy nor doesn't blend as well as the other more pricey options"

"there are 2 handy transportable beakers in which your smooothie is made direct no extra bowl to clean"

"have been using these and they haven't spilled once in my backpack even cycling to work "

"i have the 600ml bottle and the only issue i have is that blending fruit is rather difficult"

"although this product does what it is supposed to do very well there is a design fault which renders it useless when it kicks in"

"plus even to get to a lumpy smoothie it takes much longer than others"

"i haven't put too much stress on the bottles but just carrying around or in the side pocket of a backpack they have never leaked on me so far!"

"i got this for my very sick mother and i don't know what we would do without it now!"

"life changer very easy to make smoothies now it can take frozen vegi or fruits which produce cold juice straight away"

"the only negative would be the green blender is a bit in your face"

"if i had kept the box i would've returned this as not being fit for purpose"

"1 put your chosen fruit veg liquid in the beaker 2 screw on blade attachment 3 invert and screw into blender 4 press the blend button for a few seconds it's done 5 swap the blade for the drinker cap and you're ready to go 6 really quick and easy to wash and clean"

"i had one of these for 3 4years and it lasted well apart from eventually the blades stopped rotating and it broke"

"there is one design flaw however: the bottle blender head screw is in the same direction as the blender head blender body screw"

"i recently purchased this product because i drink protein shakes after my gym sessions and every time i find myself having massive lumps in my drink even after trying my best to shake them out"

"i have now applied this every time when removing the bottle gently press down with one hand and twist out with the other hand and had no more problems i rinse the blades after use and wrap in kitchen paper"

"it should either be a left hand thread or it should attach to the blender anti clockwise to ensure it won’t unscrew as you remove it from the blender"

"surely they could throw in a couple of spare seals at the cost of under 1 2 pence to solve this"

"even though the fault occurred a couple of years after purchasing the blender it hadn't been used that regularly so build quality must be considered as a potential issue"

"also it doesn't blend very fine so there will be bits if you don't strain them"

"it just doesn't have the power for these types of smoothies and mine has worn badly around the plastic parts which interlock during operation due to excessive vibration"

"now after 4 months 1 of the lids pictures has broken completely and the other is cracked!"

"was fantastic when i first used it but after a few uses the blade rotation seems to have slowed or dulled the pulse isn't as strong & the smoothies aren't very "smooth""

"blender came with the wrong base"

"these little blenders will overheat if you don’t give them time to rest in between pumps so do follow the instructions and don’t run for more than 30 seconds at a time without resting it for a minute"

"fast delivery and good price only thing is drinks are sometimes a little bitty as it doesn't completely shred everything"

"lumps remained in all blends it was nowhere near as good as my £15 kenwood extremely disappointing "

"it was leaking terribly from what i assume was the rubber seal breaking and it was struggling to mix the smoothies i needed"

"i have discovered that the bottle can be removed on its own easily by twisting and not pressing downwards"

"so what does one do to report a faulty item blend active personal blender & smoothie maker ?"

"bearing in mind i am blending soft fruit this really should not be necessary"

"the low rating has been given because the safety switch that detected the correct attachment of the bottle stopped working and would not blend even though the blender motor still worked by using other means to test the switch"

"the lid closure is very tight to start with which is great but over time that weakens the spout and eventually cracks is so it doesn't 'click' closed and leaks everywhere unless you have it upright not useful when its supposed to be for when you are out and about and being 'active' eventually it breaks"

"i have seen online that someone even uses this to 'whisk' eggs and milk together for a quick fuss free way of making scrambled eggs"

"but when testing it wouldn't work as expected because a screw holding the blade component would come loose each time i tried to operate the device and even with my attempts to put it back on it would simply fail again each time"

"you do not need to take out the rubber gasket to clean it food does not go underneath"

"it does a fine job blending just not as well as my previous blender"

"so this product didn't really fulfil its purpose for me however it still works quite well and rarely overheats"

"it was good during the first 2 months then i has presented many issues"

"after few months i noticed the writing has washed off the bottles but that doesn’t bother me at all"

"i have been using it most days for the past month to make smoothies out of leafy greens apple banana and frozen fruits and i am completely happy with it"

"a bit disappointed in this as it can't handle frozen fruits and it will just stop spinning and smoke coming out of it"

"but still waste of money"

"my partner used it and not only did he fill the container to the very brim he didn’t read the instructions he also didn’t realise you twist and unhook so he turned the blender upside down and it started to leak god knows how he did this so a great product but make sure all users read the manual!"

"this product has an extremely dangerous design flaw and after having it for a few months the motor has now slowed down considerably which results in overheating"

"i would definitely not recommend buying one of these"

"good that it comes with 2 bottles however unfortunately i can only use one of them because on one of the bottles the lid doesn't fit close properly so drink would spill out if in your bag"

"totally useless!"

"i mix the powder with ice and water and this makes a perfect thick shake"

"i bought this in july 2019 & now it's broken march 2020 so not too impressed cos my previous blender lasted me years!"

"had a more expensive blender previously and lasted only 3 months"

"only slight negative is that it’s not easy to clean the inside of the base"

"as many others have i resigned myself to the possibility that by paying £20 for a blender i’d soon regret not paying more for a ‘better’ product"

"put your chosen ingredients in and it copes fine with frozen fruit whizz it up swap the blade top for the lid give the blade a quick wash and ta da you're all set to go"

"i really recommend because i thought this product would not last longer due its cheap price but i was wrong"

"had it for about a year and thought it was decent enough during the time but now that i've switched to nutribullet after this one broke completely the liquid started to leak from the bottle when blending nothing compares to the blending power of the latter"

"i use this probably about 3 4 times a week after my work outs for smoothies protein shakes and it hasn’t lost any power"

"like every other blender i have bought the seal came off whilst in use and got caught up in the churning spikes"

"unfortunately cleaning bottles not that easy needs re washing sometimes even after dishwasher"

"the blade and unit get hot the noise it alot louder and there is plastic residue left in the base after use and a burning plastic smell"

"for me the proportions of this product aren't quite right as the opening of the bottle is very narrow making it not very easy to reach in to clean but accessible easily with tools"

"however around 2 weeks after purchase it broke"

"i have attempted multiple smoothies made from frozen berries and fruit but those attempts have always left me kind of disappointed"

"quality wise it has no problem blending frozen fruit and the button is very handy"

"a word of advice: i made banana strawberry smoothies and left them in the fridge overnight but they deteriorated turned brown and lost the original taste "

"edit: ok i've persisted a bit with the unit and the key to using it is to not put too much content into it it's quite good at blending powders just not great at vegetables and harder things"

"i have just missed the return replace window by about 20 days"

"i have to turn the entire thing upside down before i unscrew it and then use pliers to remove the blades"

"a word of advice: i made banana strawberry smoothies and left them in the fridge overnight but they deteriorated turned brown and lost the original taste "

"i was expecting some cheap plastic but the product is very sturdy"

"used several times a day since january quality not the greatest has a tendency to leak whilst blending no matter how tight the blender attachment is put on and the lids that come with it are broken easily "

"the only thing i would say is that it is really loud but i think that's probably the case for most blenders"

"i’ve also had problems with the blade assembly getting stuck in the blender and have had to turn the whole thing upside down to remove the bottle and then had to apply some force to the blade assembly to remove it"

"i was somehow uncertain looking at the multitude of smoothie blenders out there but after prioritising certain factors i ve bought this instead "

"or just whatever you have in the house it's really hard to go wrong!"

"i always leave the covers to dry on draining each before putting them away so"

"very poor service"

"this really is the most simple blender out there you just put your chosen items inside screw on the blade cap insert the bottle upside down with the blade connector at the bottom into the main unit twist into the lock position and hold down the blend button"

"i have only used it so far on meal replacement powder shakes so not a significant test of its blending power but it does that in about one second flat"

"a bit disappointed in this as it can't handle frozen fruits and it will just stop spinning and smoke coming out of it"

"another time it leaked because of the very cold ingredients in it"

"the only recommendation i have is that it is a right hand thread on the blender lid and you screw it into the blender it’s self by turning clock wide tighten this gives the lid the risk of coming off when taking out the blender as you turn it the same way to remove from blender as you do to remove the lid"

"but quite noisy when you add frozen fruit so i defrost first"

"i have lost a stone in two months just by eating more fruit and veg and walking more"

"there is only 1 button to operate the blender which is a doddle the nutribullet required some force to be pushed downward then locked in position"

"i had the same one that lasted 4 years and sadly broke"

"the only shame of this product is none of the accessories in the range are heat resistant"

"when you're done all you have to do is add a little soap and warm water and give it a blend then rinse away the soap job done!"

"note that you cannot blend frozen fruit straight from the freezer with this blender"

"i prefer a switch on & leave it to do its job but it doesn't stop me from using it regularly"

"wouldn't recommend"

"i chose this one based on : low noise when blending check good reliable motor wattage check fast blending check easy to use check easy to wash ckeck easy to store check bargain price!"

"the press down button stops this and i’ve been using for weeks without breaking"

"lower price than most means a less powerful motor 300w compared to 600w on some 'big brand' blenders but it hasn't made any difference to mine so far"

"bad experience altogether"

"at times it feels like the unit might just stop altogether and struggles to get everything mixed"

"i tried bananas strawberries granola nuts and this thing just rips through without breaking a sweat"

"i tried to ring the support number provided by amazon order and the number seems to be inaccessible"

"then i have to clean the blender base from the leaked liquids"

"i suspected that it wouldn't last long due to the suspicious smell from the motor every time it was used and it has now died completely after 4 months of use"

"if you do not believe try it waste your time a bit"

"it is rather loud and can be difficult to clean out but that’s the only “fault” i can think of"

"it did not work from out of the box the blades did not rotate and it was shedding bits of black plastic instead of gripping it and rotating the blades"

"there is only 1 button to operate the blender which is a doddle the nutribullet required some force to be pushed downward then locked in position"

"the only issue here they should reinforce somehow the bottle plug so that what you see in the last photos does not happpen "

"it has no power whatsoever"

"the blade chopper occasionally gives off a burning smell when in use but you never need to 'blend' for very long so it hasn't bothered me too much"

"update 21 06 2020 issues with the bottle lid and with the lid plug as you will see in photos initially i intended in sending the botle back but with the use of a fine very fine drill i managed to work something out and secure it properly "

"after only a handful of uses the blade attachment has started leaking and now i cannot use it as anything inside it just leaks through into the actual blender and leaves a mess everywhere"

"i wouldn’t buy again"

"the downsides are though when the smoothie is too thick the blades would stuck and it is easier to wash using a bottle brush as hands wouldn’t reach the bottom of the bottle"

"this also makes it not ideal for cleaning but as long as you have a long handle its no problem"

"i usually freeze all my fruit such as bananas and strawberries and add it straight in here which makes it very cold without watering it down with ice"

"with this little blender you blend everything in a bottle that you can directly drink your shake from or fasten the lid to take away no transferring to different containers leaving half the shake behind on the first one no extra washing up"

"use it in short bursts and give it a little shake if it freezes up which sometimes happens if you put cold things in with juice"

"to add on having two different bottles in this product is outstanding since you'll regularly buy a blender which you have to poor into a glass and create more washing up"

"it is rather loud and can be difficult to clean out but that’s the only “fault” i can think of"

"it’s light and got 300w but because of the bottle form style and ugly placed blades it’s just mixing not blending or grinding etc"

"spend a whole day trying to get through without success"

"have been using this blender for more than 6 months and i should admit that this is the only blender that i was able to use everyday"

"the plastic housing has melted away on both sides see picture "

"i tried to blitz apples but it struggled a bit with that"

"if you are looking for personal blender with no fuss look no further"

"if the replacement bottles were cheaper it wouldn’t be as much of a problem"

"the bottles are great for soft veg and hard veg"

"another bad thing i've noticed is when you screw the bottle to the motor seems like everything is going to break soon"

"but it blends down ice and frozen fruit with no trouble"

"i also found that frozen fruit was too hard to blend"

"it is nice to have such a small appliance which takes up so little storage room"

"it's stopped working now possibly broken from overheat"

"this product leaks it is the second one i have i replaced the first one because it leaked thinking that it might have been a faulty one but the second ones leaks even more"

"once it's gone it will leak and render the blender useless"

"i use frozen fruit and it blends them nicely i occasionally find some of the fruit hasn't been chopped but overall it does a good job"

"only complaint is that bottle lid got stuck cause i did it too tight but honestly left it over night and the pressure undid and it was good as ever"

"i was so excited in the begging but later on i try to do some cold coffee i have the small size of ice i blend it for 1 2 minute and after stop works the same is with the smoothie when i put frozen fruits small size with some juice it stop work"

"however friends have bought this one and they say it's fab so possibly just not suited to me"

"the blades have trouble if apple is put inside and you will have to shake the blender take lid off and adjust fruit inside in order to blend even when small slices "

"i gave it time to cool down and tried again then realized that the rubber barrier wound itself around the blades"

"2ndly it only cooked veg that was directly on top and the rest just gets squished to the sides and you have to undo it all and move it with a spoon every minute to get anywhere"

"i've been looking to replace my old blender for weeks now "

"the blade chopper occasionally gives off a burning smell when in use but you never need to 'blend' for very long so it hasn't bothered me too much"

"only complaint is that bottle lid got stuck cause i did it too tight but honestly left it over night and the pressure undid and it was good as ever"

"ok blender smells like plastic is melting after 10 seconds of use"

"the lid closure is very tight to start with which is great but over time that weakens the spout and eventually cracks is so it doesn't 'click' closed and leaks everywhere unless you have it upright not useful when its supposed to be for when you are out and about and being 'active' eventually it breaks"

"im only taking a star off because it doesn't feel super powerful not that i need it to be super powerful at the moment and it is a teeeeny bit tricky to clean"

"i use this for meal replacement shakes and add ice to them if mixes everything up really well however ice isn’t crushed that well"

"we replaced and after only a few uses the blade area began to leak"

"you do not need to take out the rubber gasket to clean it food does not go underneath"

"i have had many blenders in the past which have all broken but this is still going strong and i have used it everyday for two years"

"i do my little ones milkshakes and my smoothie plus i even use it to whisk if making sauces for meals etc you have to do it in short bursts or you can smell hot plastic and the bottle slightly warms but this is my first blender so i dont know if thats the norm with them all"

"going on to the breville website this seems a common issue but they haven’t fixed the problem"

"with this little blender you blend everything in a bottle that you can directly drink your shake from or fasten the lid to take away no transferring to different containers leaving half the shake behind on the first one no extra washing up"

"have made smoothies with avocado spinach banana apple peeled pineapple oranges carrot and kiwi fruit without any problem"

"it just means i have to defrost the fruit before using it which doesn't bother me but it might bother others"

"i have been using it on a daily basis for the past 5 months and it still is in a good condition and i do not thoroughly wipe it after every use the bottles are starting to get old though and i feel around 6 7 month mark they will need to be replaced"

"i like this product because it’s not very big and it doesn’t consume lots of kitchen space"

"it didn’t grind the nuts"

"yea it's noisy but it takes less than 30 seconds for a perfect smoothie so i don't care at all"

"smoothies fruit soup sauces"

"however if you like to go freestyle with your smoothies and add frozen fruit yogurt etc"

"i guess it all depends on the size large pieces of ice and frozen fruit will not blend and can damage it"

"your hand would not fit inside"

"i brought this one instead of the amazon basics version not much price difference"

"i've added whole apples including the core and seeds cut into chunks frozen cherries ice cubes kale more types of frozen fruit oats everything has blended up smoothly"

"the blade isn’t broken or bent and the base still makes the blending noise but it just doesn’t turn the liquid"

"this is probably to ensure leak free usage however i have ended up snapping one of the flip lids right off the hinge while struggling to open it"

"did have a problem when using and it wouldn’t work as i couldn’t press the button after about a month however i got a replacement and it seems completely fine"

"try to make sure frozen fruit doesn't get stuck in the container and that there is liquid around the blade for best results"

"only thing is if you freeze your own fruits and blend them not all are blended smooth"

"the product support phone number is not working there is no one else to contact"

"with this little blender you blend everything in a bottle that you can directly drink your shake from or fasten the lid to take away no transferring to different containers leaving half the shake behind on the first one no extra washing up"

"don't consider buying it if you've little strength in your hands as it's quite a wrench opening it to get at the contents"

"very disappointing!"

"i've had one of these before where it started once you put the power in which was very annoying"

"tried to make raw vegetable sausage mix tales a long time to get through the whole mass but doesn’t work so great if you use small amounts"

"this is the second time i've been let down by which so i'll be cancelling my subscription as their testing is clearly not what it used to be"

"the motor unit does not spin at all"

"also the bottles are too narrow and high so it's uncomfortable to put the fruit inside and also to wash them"

"must wash it straight away"

"may be worth to spend a little more but having a blender working properly instead of cleaning the mess left after every single use"

"so quiet compared to my last one not breville "

"i read some reviews saying it’s overheated or even caught on fire i haven’t had any of these issues however as it is a personal size blender and so powerful i try not to overwork it so i’ll pulsate and then blend and so far so good!"

"not from same sit but same prices and boxes had so very little size difference to even notice til i wrapped them"

"having read the tons of positive reviews of this smoothie maker i decided to purchase one after my old one died"

"on top of that it also leaked on me and then the other cap that’s not broken is growing mold in the crack and i’m having a hard time getting in there"

"however when it said in the description that it was good at crushing ice i assumed frozen berries would be no different"

"it comes with two bottles and drinking lids too which adds to the value"

"amazon points me to a page saying breville will sort it out 'replace missing or damaged parts & troubleshoot technical issues' and state a telephone number that is constantly busy and occasionally 'this number is temporarily out of order' !"

"had high hopes for this but feel a bit let down"

"the only thing bad is that the motor isn't that powerful so if you plan on using frozen fruits or ice you will notice the drop in power"

"can't fault it for the price"

"blade bit stuck in base so when i unscrewed it this morning the bottle came out leaving it behind and the smoothie is now all over the kitchen top"

"however these two issues with the blade and support is why i give it 3 stars"

"very disappointed"

"i certainly won't be buying bread from a supermarket again and just wish i hadn't wasted money on the cheaper machine which was a logik l1bms11"

"but the version which can do it is more expensive"

"only problem with that is it outs you off other bread it is a must for any house hold"

"so dry and at times inedible also very expensive"

"more difficult was to choice which one to buy from panasonic choice dint bother about price just to ensure i got what i need dint bother about this model as i wanted timer automatic nuts raisin dispenser and more options spend few days on compare and ask questions plus speak with wife and almost brought the top model until i find out it’s useless for my needs wife needs "

"it seems they haven't googled it at panasonic adding extra water does not work"

"i have tried a different recipe as suggested initially but that did not rise at all and was a total failure"

"the bread maker has been a huge disappointment and i will never purchase another panasonic bread maker again"

"total kaput and so much hassle returning it so i decided i have to get something which will last forever but also has to be simple without these unnecessary drawers and dispensers"

"i do not recommend the nasty cheap brown and cream plastic bread cutter on sale the thin plastic of which bends out of shape while you are trying to saw the bread the wood and metal one is outrageously expensive so i am just using a breadknife"

"bread nevers fails to rise"

"i was looking for a bread maker and had lots of stores from friends and family about how bad bread makers are and there experiences"

"and importantly has 'gluten free' setting but beware if you use the 'gluten free' setting the recipe given in the handbook will not produce a good loaf and possibly damage your machine"

"product failed just as warranty expired"

"there's a lot of nonsense said about bread needing salt for it to rise"

"put the ingredients in the breadmaker in this order: a sploosh of olive oil about one tablespoon all this does is make the dough workable and easy to tip the loaf out at the end 280ml of tepid water 30 seconds in the microwave to make it tepid will do don't make it too hot or you'll kill the yeast 400g of strong bread flour with 1 teaspoon of dried bread making yeast stirred into it"

"my only gripe is that the quick program is rubbish compared to the proper way which kneads and rises twice"

"by adding 2 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of dough improver available from lakeland to the mix"

"produced about a dozen loaves and several dough batches all good though still learning how to tweak things a little"

"unfortunately it turned out loaves which were either brick like or didn't rise properly so that the tops were all gnarled and twisty and on slicing the bread it was just too hard"

"only minus it’s that you will need take off blade from bread after and was little messy plus was little bit of flour on it and around which needed go away"

"beware buyers"

"the only tiny disappointment is no viewing window but this really isn't essential"

"i am very unhappy"

"i was buying gf loaves at £3 per loaf which were tiny dry greasy no flavour or all of the above"

"it wouldn't stop me buying the machine but it is an unnecessary niggle"

"it has got slightly more noisy after a year of use 3 times a week or more at least but we put it downstairs by the back door or in the spare room if we want it to work overnight"

"however the yeast dispenser on the sd zb2502 is unbelievably noisy and could wake the dead"

"also i must add it has a ridiculously short mains lead"

"it can't whisk the cake batter and you have to line the pan with baking parchment?"

"however the programmes for wholemeal are up to 5 hours which is very long and the shorter 3 hour version produces inferior results"

"one slight problem their site makes it extremely difficult to register this product!"

"occasionally i've had a slight issue getting the loaf out of the bread pan"

"this bread maker now is heading straight for the bin as the 30 days is up for returning same"

"i do not recommend the nasty cheap brown and cream plastic bread cutter on sale the thin plastic of which bends out of shape while you are trying to saw the bread the wood and metal one is outrageously expensive so i am just using a breadknife"

"previous breadmakers have been noisy and as we have two small nervous dogs i gave the last one away"

"the seller magic discounts amazon and panasonic are referring my problem to one another without accepting liability for a refund so i'm stuck with a faulty product that i can't return"

"one slight problem their site makes it extremely difficult to register this product!"

"the most expensive model i've bought but well worth the extra money for the excellent results"

"unfortunately gluten free bread is not the best but that's not the bread makers fault!"

"also a complaint i’ve read in other reviews so why doesn’t the manufacturer take notice the bleep at the end when the loaf is ready is pathetically quiet"

"when my last panasonic breadmaker stopped working i was a bit worried by some of the negative reviews on here but still decided to purchase another panasonic model"

"he got a better loaf by making the dough cooking it in the oven so i can't really compare so you can make the cheap ones work but i'm lazy"

"so the panasonic is the option for busy people : if you decide to buy panasonic buy sd 2501 as it has seeds dispenser"

"it will also bake pre mixed dough if one wishes to mix a special cake recipe"

"changed the yeast changed the flour but still flat bread"

"almost too high"

"i am not bothered by the lack of any window in the lid but i do so wish it had a louder beeper however i simply put the on cooker timer which is nice and loud for the same amount of time"

"learned one valuable thing keep the yeast in the fridge and throw away when it reaches its best before date"

"i doubt we'd make jam or cakes in the machine but we will use the timer as the granary loaf took 5 hours and it would have been nice to have some for lunch instead of tea!"

"it has encouraged me in a new hobby for my enthusiasm for baking my own bread without a machine was waning rapidly"

"one small niggle is the end of loaf beep is quite quiet i did contact panasonic but was told that was how it is"

"you certainly don't need a seperate recipe book as the recipes in the panasonic booklet are more than ample for most people"

"the panasonic sd2500 is the 4th breadmaker we've had over a number of years and is by far the very best"

"bought after two very efficient panasonic breakmakers"

"my previous machine panasonic sd254 was brilliant purchased from amazon in september 2009 but it died on me after six years of making beautiful granary loaves on bake rapid"

"if you are having problems i would suggest trying a stronger bread flour as the difference it made was amazing and i would replace this with the same model or maybe the 2501 if it broke down"

"as with this bread maker you will get a hole in the center base where the dough paddle sits i can live with it!"

"yeast was not mixed flour not mixed properly and the bread was not baked"

"some longer programmes so delivers a better result"

"don't waste money on cheaper models this is an investment in good food for years to come"

"i put another much louder timer on to let me know"

"i bought this to replace a previous panasonic breadmaker after the drive became noisy"

"it was almost gone for dinner so i made the second one on timer was ready at 7 am both large loaves second is medium crust"

"my loaves have never been so large and after my old noisy breadmaker this one is so quiet i don't know it's on"

"so far i have made white wholemeal white fruit and fruit malt loaves exactly as described with the enclosed recipes and they have come out fantastic"

"opened the scales and not being gentle about anything i think its a bloke thing threw together the flour yeast salt butter etc into the pan without doing anything to the pan or mixing blade some find oiling the blade or rubber spatula for the pan helpful against sticking but i never had any issues whatsoever !"

"i have always found the panasonic bread machines far superior to the other machines i have had and replaced my old bread machine with yet another panasonic"

"then i bought a bag of marriages bread flour and everything seemed to click into place"

"therefore as you can clearly observe on page 10 where the list of bread types and baking options are listed there are two columns one for sd 2501 and sd 2500"

"the only weakness is the drawer that dumps in fruit known issue can do tricky home repair or spend £20+ on new one so as we almost never use the facility we've gone for the basic machine this time with no door"

"you do however need to take the loaf from the tin very soon after baking otherwise the loaf steams and spoils"

"if you are having problems i would suggest trying a stronger bread flour as the difference it made was amazing and i would replace this with the same model or maybe the 2501 if it broke down"

"nothing is broken and it seems to me like nothing will be broken soon yes sometimes the bread maker is making a "strange noises" but it is simply at the time when the machine is mixing the dough after that is very quiet "

"it is only useful if you use the delay timer which i do not and adds to the list of things that could go wrong and the 2501 costs a lot more"

"made six loaves five of which were poorly mixed and leaden and the sixth barely risen despite following trouble shooting advice"

"if you are having problems i would suggest trying a stronger bread flour as the difference it made was amazing and i would replace this with the same model or maybe the 2501 if it broke down"

"the first loaf i made on basic rapid that is 2 hours and dark crust"

"the longer program seems unnecessary"

"i purchased this product some 16 months ago and in the last few months have started to experience the flat bread syndrome referred to by so many reviewers who have given the product 1 star as a result"

"i purchased this product some 16 months ago and in the last few months have started to experience the flat bread syndrome referred to by so many reviewers who have given the product 1 star as a result"

"bakes bread dough cakes and many more things"

"the non stick coating seems to be tough but i did notice some faint marking after using a whole grain bread mix so i'm not sure how long it would last if i did this too often"

"only reservation is that it can be tricky to line the pan when baking cakes"

"i can now eat bread that does not contain any chemicals or suspicious oils"

"i bought a cheap argos one which sufficed but a bit basic and i felt i could do better"

"there are also recipes for apple and ginger cake banana and walnut loaf boozy cake fruit tea bread gingerbread hazelnut and many more within the full manual that's included and available online at the panasonic website"

"i do this as i personally don't like the tall loaves that all bread machines produce or the paddle that is baked into the loaf leaving some weird slices which is my only criticism"

"no need for a yeast dropper as i understand it's insanely noisy in operation no night baking!"

"the old one lost anti stick on the pan was going to buy a new pan but saw this at similar price"

"my dad bought a cheap bread maker for less than half the price and he altered the recipe bit by bit until it worked perfectly and he used it for 10 years until the motor burnt out"

"dough recipe 16 on bread maker"

"i purchased another brand of bread machine a few years ago and it was complete rubbish i never made a successful loaf and subsequently gave it away"

"the non stick coating seems to be tough but i did notice some faint marking after using a whole grain bread mix so i'm not sure how long it would last if i did this too often"

"the machine loses a star for the following: end of cycle beep too quiet with no facility to adjust the volume the lcd display lens scratches easily the whole thing is solid but some of the plastic parts could fit better"

"i just get a stock reply"

"the panasonic is miles apart in terms of the quality of the bread it produces"

"opened the scales and not being gentle about anything i think its a bloke thing threw together the flour yeast salt butter etc into the pan without doing anything to the pan or mixing blade some find oiling the blade or rubber spatula for the pan helpful against sticking but i never had any issues whatsoever !"

"more difficult was to choice which one to buy from panasonic choice dint bother about price just to ensure i got what i need dint bother about this model as i wanted timer automatic nuts raisin dispenser and more options spend few days on compare and ask questions plus speak with wife and almost brought the top model until i find out it’s useless for my needs wife needs "

"put the ingredients in the breadmaker in this order: a sploosh of olive oil about one tablespoon all this does is make the dough workable and easy to tip the loaf out at the end 280ml of tepid water 30 seconds in the microwave to make it tepid will do don't make it too hot or you'll kill the yeast 400g of strong bread flour with 1 teaspoon of dried bread making yeast stirred into it"

"great bread maker only wish i had gone for the 2501 for the dispenser tray but this still works really well and makes great bread although i prefer half white half wholemeal so i had to play with the liquid amounts a bit to get them right"

"have tried different batches of flour and yeast to eliminate that as cause of problem"

"don't mess with the recipes leave them as they are panasonic have got it spot on"

"i decided to make just a basic white load for my first attempt"

"all previous machines i've had tend to get noisy over time so i'm not worried about it"

"on another occasion i had a deformed loaf but again it was my fault as i later realized i hadn't added enough water"

"made six loaves five of which were poorly mixed and leaden and the sixth barely risen despite following trouble shooting advice"

"the bread was flat as a pancake and very heavy"

"the result is a horrible dense cake like bun"

"total kaput and so much hassle returning it so i decided i have to get something which will last forever but also has to be simple without these unnecessary drawers and dispensers"

"it doesn't make too much noise thus being able to stay around while it's working without too much nuisance"

"put the ingredients in the breadmaker in this order: a sploosh of olive oil about one tablespoon all this does is make the dough workable and easy to tip the loaf out at the end 280ml of tepid water 30 seconds in the microwave to make it tepid will do don't make it too hot or you'll kill the yeast 400g of strong bread flour with 1 teaspoon of dried bread making yeast stirred into it"

"after several bad experiences with breadmakers i was persuaded to buy this one"

"no one could fail to hear that!"

"no more shop bought bread for this household"

"good unit i have made several loafs so far buying premixed from supermarket and very considtant"

"my previous ones pan same make model was no longer non stick and it was impossible to remove the bread"

"it's difficult to slice as it buckles due to lack of firmness"

"my old bead maker finally died of overwork so this one was a must and i can't say anything negative about it i have never owned any other make so i can't compare but i wouldn't contemplate any other"

"the brioche burned in the bread maker after just 1 hour and 55 minutes even though the finish time was 3 hours 30 minutes"

"i’ve only given four stars for durability simply because the lid feels a bit flimsy but handled gently it hasn’t been a problem"

"this panasonic breadmaker replaced a cheap supermarket machine which after 10 years gave up the ghost"

"the first machine i received was faulty so i returned it for another"

"waitrose refunded me the cost of the duff bag but it wasted a bit of effort"

"the only downside is that the beep that sounds when you can add extra ingredients isn't loud enough so you could miss the time slot"

"the bread comes out much easier with the non stick baking tin"

"got the hang of it after 2 tries"

"the paddle has survived countless dishwasher cycles and the pan has remained incredibly non stick despite a few over enthusiastic scrapes with a knife from little ones"

"no need for a yeast dropper as i understand it's insanely noisy in operation no night baking!"

"also whole grain breads come out heavy and undercooked"

"i have made wholemeal granary white brown fruit and various others including ready mixed where only water is added "

"i can't wait until christmas fresh bread on christmas morning fresh wholemeal for the smoked salmon starter and no panic buying of too many loaves on christmas eve"

"i purchased another brand of bread machine a few years ago and it was complete rubbish i never made a successful loaf and subsequently gave it away"

"i can't comment on the recipes because i am not that good at following them"

"we have tried all combinations of flours and yeasts and the bread refuses to rise"

"the bread is inedible uncooked heavy and damp inside"

"this happened also in a previous model but is worse in the sd 2500"

"the only very slight negative is that underneath the options panel the metal strip is a bit buckled and i wonder if this will get worse with time"

"also a complaint i’ve read in other reviews so why doesn’t the manufacturer take notice the bleep at the end when the loaf is ready is pathetically quiet"

"my only minor criticsm is the "pinger" at the end of the bread making cycle"

"bought the breadmaker to replace an old and very worn out breadmaker had a few problems in the beginning but discovered it was due to my yeast was in date but had been stored for quite a few months "

"i have made hot x buns and 2 loaves and now the machine is defunct"

"i had always wanted to make my own bread but had always been under the misconception that it was a messy and timely occupation i was wrong"

"it replaced another make which produced quite primitive shaped loaves"

"its large number of settings and instruction book which come with exact measurements for different products make it a one stop product for home baking"

"service centre which wanted £40 just to look at it so decided to go for new and bought the fairly basic sd 2500 wxc"

"very puzzled i bought this years ago and wore it out!"

"the only shortage is missing rye bread production"

"having spent years making half decent loaves in a morphy richards i purchaced the panasonic sd 2500 after reading the reviews"

"it didn't make the chocolate chip brioche as the chips melted and the loaf was heavy and not really edible but this has been the only disaster"

"yeast was not mixed flour not mixed properly and the bread was not baked"

"when my last panasonic breadmaker stopped working i was a bit worried by some of the negative reviews on here but still decided to purchase another panasonic model"

"nothing is broken and it seems to me like nothing will be broken soon yes sometimes the bread maker is making a "strange noises" but it is simply at the time when the machine is mixing the dough after that is very quiet "

"some never made good bread and some did if you got the recipe just right but after a year or two the stirrer seised up or the bread pan began to leak around the stirrer"

"the problem with all bread makers is the paddle sometimes coming out with the bread but not all the time"

"we expected to 'hear' machine start and when it didn't it was a rest cycle thought the timer had not functioned"

"the seller magic discounts amazon and panasonic are referring my problem to one another without accepting liability for a refund so i'm stuck with a faulty product that i can't return"

"the panasonic entails mixing the ingredients then removing them then lining the tin then putting the mixed ingredients back in to the tin"

"it is worth reading the recipe book carefully as it has good tips on what to do if the bread is heavy has air holes in etc etc"

"having had a previous machine by this company which suddenly packed up i am so glad i heeded which report and replaced with same make updated version of course"

"this one has never put a foot wrong"

"it is only useful if you use the delay timer which i do not and adds to the list of things that could go wrong and the 2501 costs a lot more"

"i just regret i didn't bought it earlier"

"i would highly recommend this machine but i wouldn't pay the extra for the sd 2501 which has the dispenser it only means putting the extra ingredients in manually after about an hour which is no hardship unless you are baking overnight"

"i tried several different brands of flour morrisons asda tesco lidl etc and they all gave me similar results"

"i think i made the wrong one"

"in communication with panasonic re my complaint"

"previous breadmaker gave very moderate results with heavy stodgy bread"

"there are also recipes for apple and ginger cake banana and walnut loaf boozy cake fruit tea bread gingerbread hazelnut and many more within the full manual that's included and available online at the panasonic website"

"all previous machines i've had tend to get noisy over time so i'm not worried about it"

"to put it in a nutshell the bread isn't as nice nice than the cheapie but not as nice as the fastbake which although didn't have a special gluten free program made a very nice gluten free loaf"

"used it twice and sent it back as it didn't mix properly and the bread was flat and pale on top"

"the machine loses a star for the following: end of cycle beep too quiet with no facility to adjust the volume the lcd display lens scratches easily the whole thing is solid but some of the plastic parts could fit better"

"according to their model drop down menu this model doesn’t exist!"

"i primarily use the machine for the dough feature to make rolls and putting the dough into a normal 800g 2lb loaf tin and baking it in the conventional oven"

"the new one is slimmer and has a non stick surface on the bread pan and kneading blade which are coated with diamond particles that are apparently twice as tough and scratch proof as the old one"

"the raisin dispenser broke and stayed open even though we never even used it"

"however the yeast dispenser on the sd zb2502 is unbelievably noisy and could wake the dead"

"the reason i didn't get the 2501 was because of the seed dispenser which to me isn't a big thing because i can add the seeds manually"

"even if you don't fancy square shaped loaves i think these are great machines just to knead the dough then bake in your normal oven"

"two niggles the graduations on the measuring tumbler are difficult to read when filled with liquid and the volume of the bleeper to tell you when the bread is ready is not loud enough panasonic really ought to fix that"

"i have tried various recipes for both bread and dough settings and the results are always excellent delivering perfect loaves every time"

"use a lot for making dough esp pizza and wouldn't be without it now"

"the only tiny disappointment is no viewing window but this really isn't essential"

"to make matters worse i made several attempts and in doing so i went beyond the 28 day return period"

"i purchased this product some 16 months ago and in the last few months have started to experience the flat bread syndrome referred to by so many reviewers who have given the product 1 star as a result"

"i purchased this one as i never ever did use the fruit and nut dispenser on the other so this does the job at almost 1 2 the price!"

"my old bead maker finally died of overwork so this one was a must and i can't say anything negative about it i have never owned any other make so i can't compare but i wouldn't contemplate any other"

"i make a loaf almost every day and in 3 months of use have not had a bad one that wasn't my fault "

"note that this model does not have the automatic dispenser for seeds etc so you can't make some loaves on the timer as you need to add the extra ingredients when prompted"

"idiot proof hey if i can make great bread with this anyone can!"

"the non stick coating seems to be tough but i did notice some faint marking after using a whole grain bread mix so i'm not sure how long it would last if i did this too often"

"i can't wait until christmas fresh bread on christmas morning fresh wholemeal for the smoked salmon starter and no panic buying of too many loaves on christmas eve"

"3 hour function for granary bread was somewhat disappointing with the bread not fully raised"

"amazon far from clear on how to contact them over this kind of problem"

"do not buy this model!"

"struggled a bit with the instructions and they don't mention that the 'rest period' is at the beginning of the cycle and the machine does nothing for an hour"

"the beeper is just not loud enough"

"whatever i do the bread is doughy soft and not fully cooked"

"immediately set to trying it out but the plastic measuring cup supplied for the water was found to be cracked"

"two things which could i feel be improved on a warning that the breadmaker begins with a rest period which made me at least think it wasn’t working at first"

"it doesn't make too much noise thus being able to stay around while it's working without too much nuisance"

"one has only to google the "panasonic breadmaker paddle problem" to see how many people have experienced it"

"i was buying gf loaves at £3 per loaf which were tiny dry greasy no flavour or all of the above"

"i have wasted 2 lots of flour etc and the loaves have not processed at all"

"whatever i do the bread is doughy soft and not fully cooked"

"as for the dough paddle it does not stick at all and never has you have to let the machine cool completely before cleaning or putting any water on the metal bread making container the loafs we have are lovely and crusty with a fabulous taste so far to go as the best bread i have tasted in 50yrs"

"won’t buy another loaf!"

"no detergent is needed the dough will brush off easily"

"a buttered cake tin in an oven is far less aggro and the result will look like a cake rather than a loaf shaped cake"

"the only weakness is the drawer that dumps in fruit known issue can do tricky home repair or spend £20+ on new one so as we almost never use the facility we've gone for the basic machine this time with no door"

"to make matters worse i made several attempts and in doing so i went beyond the 28 day return period"

"nothing should break it would just look classier"

"few drops of water too much or too little and the result is changed radically"

"if it doesn't pop out rotate the blade a little back and forth by moving the fitting under the pan on top now of course and shake the pan again"

"i am not bothered by the lack of any window in the lid but i do so wish it had a louder beeper however i simply put the on cooker timer which is nice and loud for the same amount of time"

"the only tiny disappointment is no viewing window but this really isn't essential"

"we sent it over to panasonic customer service and they replaced the lid"

"would be much better if the recipes gave weights as well as volumes for yeast sugar and salt much more accurate to measure and scale up or down if you have small digital scales"

"the loaf was easy to remove from the non stick pan and there was minimal cleaning up to do afterwards"

"we have purchased many and varied makes of breadmaker some expensive some cheap this is by far the best one we have ever had we use this at least 3 times a week so we will have to see how long it will last but up to yet the best"

"we previously had one which worked perfectly but decided to upgrade a big mistake"

"there is higher model that has a nuts dispenser but i decided not to pay for that feature as i didn't think i would use it all that often"

"only quibble is crust could be crustier but it is my first machine so some fine tuning may be required!"

"last one died recently so i had no hesitation in getting another"

"one thing i found was that the bread recipes are only approximate because the result depends on the batch of flour and where it is sourced from and that will affect how much water you need"

"my previous ones pan same make model was no longer non stick and it was impossible to remove the bread"

"for menus 7 and 20 meaning bake rye and dough rye there is a line explaining that this option is not available for your breadmaker as it was not designed for this purpose"

"try it for yourself i doubt you will be disappointed"

"can't argue with that"

"5kg' avoid this flour!"

"secret is measure the ingrediants 100% do not just guesstimate"

"my old bread maker morphy richards was good but wearing out"

"i bought this on the strength of other reviews to replace an old morphy richards that we had been using daily"

"delighted with the panasonic its far better"

"our last panasonic breadmaker lasted eleven years and is still going strong as it turned out we were using old yeast rather than there being a problem with the breadmaker"

"obviously washing all user parts with a soft sponge and soapy water is the only prep i had done and my first loaf is a corker i went straight for the 1kg loaf not to do by half measures lol and the only thing i have to say anything about is that even on dark crust setting the loaf has a light to medium colouring and not as dark as i would like it but im sure i will find a way to get it a little darker still but this was done on prog 2 rapid loaf so it mat be darker if i used the full baking prog 1 ?"

"first week was difficult as stop eating gluten it’s not easy as to find replacement for diet and keep eating enough calories min 1000 per day"

"i bought the model with the raisin and nut dispenser for my daughter"

"did not bother with all the automatic gizzmos that come with some makes this one is plain and simple and works every time and the bread is delicious"

"the only downside is that the beep that sounds when you can add extra ingredients isn't loud enough so you could miss the time slot"

"it was not a good move although the breadmaker was smaller than the panasonic models there was no consistently about the quality of the bread"

"it didn't make the chocolate chip brioche as the chips melted and the loaf was heavy and not really edible but this has been the only disaster"

"makes great bread but it's a very big machine so finding storage space is not easy but would not be without it "

"just started a white loaf on program 7 and the dough is being mixed properly you can hear the difference in the force of the mixing between the old machine & the new one so problem solved!"

"the only very slight negative is that underneath the options panel the metal strip is a bit buckled and i wonder if this will get worse with time"

"more often than not the paddle stays in the bread but it’s easy to remove once the bread has cooled down"

"i have to say the wholemeal turned out to be very stodgy and not nice to eat at all"

"i’ve only given four stars for durability simply because the lid feels a bit flimsy but handled gently it hasn’t been a problem"

"breadmaker is as described perfect to replace an older panasonic one which broke down"

"the new panasonic has cured the problem"

"so easy to use you just can't go wrong"

"i cannot find any think bad about this product"

"some never made good bread and some did if you got the recipe just right but after a year or two the stirrer seised up or the bread pan began to leak around the stirrer"

"incidentally i didn't by the 2501 because it has the rasin nut distributor"

"it says it is suitable for breadmakers but it turned out 2 half cooked unrisen bricks"

"i found it very late"

"i bought this machine about a week ago having previously wasted money on a much cheaper bread maker which regularly produced loaves that were only fit for the bin and i don't mean the bread bin!"

"there's nothing like it"

"sth in the shop bread against mould and it unlocks diabetes and gaining weight"

"i have been using a panasonic bread maker for some years now with a good success rate but found after a period of time the non stick properties of the pan were not as good as they should be"

"i have made a fruit loaf in it and put the fruit and nuts in at the appropriate time without any problems and the timer i can hear from upstairs sometimes even though it's not that loud"

"returned without difficulty and i won’t bother again!"

"if the paddle remains in the machine the bread has only got a very small cut where the paddle was situated"

"i didn't seem to have a problem"

"it appears that the different brands blends etc affect the result far more with gf flour compared to normal flour"
