Kenwood BM256

It makes a nice loaf of bread

The controls are badly designed. The readout is at the far back and very small and it faces directly upwards thus you have to get directly above it to see it and you can't do that without pulling the machine to the front of the counter each time. Why...

Bad

In general I don't bake much bread in this, instead preferring to use the dough cycle and then bake it in the oven, which kind of defeats the purpose. I'm a little disappointed about the fact that it's so noisy. I wanted the timer function so we could...

Terrible

Don't buy this breadmaker, look for other brand, i used Breville before, i may go for that one instead.

very small size

Terrible

Utterly disappointted and disillusioned with modern standards. We really hoped that this would be IT, the ultimate, as it cost more than the others we considered. I think I may be going back to the "Pay a little and throw it out when it dies" philosophy.

It looks good. We wanted a really good one this time, so were willing to pay whatever price was necessary.

The display is hard to read. It is noisy. The bread pan gets loose in its place and bangs around, even coming to rest on the heating element - it doesn't seem to have anything by way of a locking device. I have to mix just part of the flour, then add...
