Highlights
Quality
I am pleased with the bread it made and plan on trying several other recipes from the book that came with it.
I have been baking our daily bread for 2 months now with the panasonic sd-yd250.
Opening the lid means that one can be more in touch with the bread.
Bought this machine almost two months ago and am very pleased with its performance.
Price
The only concern we have that the cost to replaced it has risen up almost twice - we bought ours for $130.
Packaging/appearance
The bread is hard to get out of the container, the paddle sticks and leaves a whole in the loaf.
The only service it needed so far the was the replacement of the bread pan and the kneading blade.
Competitiveness
I won many bread competitions in county fairs and contests and always won first place.
It's not at all easy to access or remove the bearing, so i lubed it in place with 3-in-1 oil.
Save money, and skip all the additives in storebought bread.
