Zojirushi BBCCX20

Pros: Looks like bread, tastes like a dream--

Cons: When set for mornings, the smell wakes me up. But better than an alarm clock.

Review: I dithered and debated over buying this, given the price which was enough for a round trip airline ticket. But I also hated retail breads, except for the ones that cost $4 or $5 a loaf. Having not liked the bread makers that make inconsistent square...

Pros: Makes breads faster than the oven.

Cons: Every time I tried making my bread, it came out sticky.

Review: I bought this because I am tired of making bread in my oven. It's a really nice maker, and the bread tastes good, but the only thing is, is that, every time I make it, it comes out all sticky. But overall, it comes out good.

Pros: Works great, set up and clean up are very easy.

Cons: In my opinion the instruction manual is confusing and some important recipe points aren't explained.

Review: After reading the reviews of bread makers, I went with this machine even with it's higher price and am I glad I did! It surpassed my highest expectations! It's very easy to use, even with the somewhat vague directions included and clean up is a...
