Providing myriad options, this automatic bread maker embodies the marvels of 21st century electronic convenience and choice. Yes, it mixes, kneads, rises, and bakes bread in three loaf sizes up to 2-1/2 pounds. But its digital controls go much further, offering settings for white, whole wheat, multigrain, and French (crisp crust, open texture) breads, each made according to what's best for that particular style. Other settings permit rapid baking and baking sandwich bread with a soft crust. For raisin (or other dried-fruit) bread, a beeper signals when to add the fruit so it's not crushed during kneading.

Nothing better than fresh bread!!

Pros: Three sizes of loaves (1.5, 2, 2.5 lb)
Cons: No timer function for pizza dough!!
The Bottom Line:
If you want a GOOD and versatile machine, I would recommend the Panasonic. I've been very happy with it since I decided to retire my 1.5 lb loaf Oster.
I'm in love with this bread machine! I had an Oster for 5 years, and I'm not slamming it, it was also a great machine, but I was limited by the pan size. This Panasonic has no less than 3 sizes of bread that you can make! I've used recipes geared for the 1.5 lb, 2 lb, and 2.5lb and every one turned out a winner! Since I'm not new to the bread machine world, I was looking for a machine that would perform to my specifications. I will make bread (and bake it) in the machine, and I also use the dough cycle and do a 2nd rising on the counter in regular bread pans. The machine kneads beautifully every time, and the separate yeast dispenser is a real plus. I have used the timer function to have hot bread ready to come out of the machine when I get home from work and just walking in the door and smelling that heavenly hot, fresh baked bread smell is to die for!
I have used a variety of recipes, and even purchased a set of bread machine cookbooks that were geared for the larger size loaf pans. All have been winners!
My only warning is that you need to make sure that you measure your ingredients carefully. I have a digital scale and when I use that to measure flour (by the ounce), I've never had a bad loaf of bread!
