Hamilton Beach Automatic Bread Maker Machine, Digital, Programmable, 12 Settings + Gluten Free, PFAS-Free Nonstick Pan + Kneading Paddle, 2 lb Capacity, Black

I had a bread machine several years ago and found it in the closet last year and decided to give it to a neighbor who loves to can and bake because I felt it wasn’t anything I would use again. Started seeing everybody using bread machines and decided to buy this one and try again. I love it! I mainly use the dough cycle and bake whatever in my oven but if you like a harder crust on your baked bread there is nothing wrong with baking it in this bread machine. I don’t find it noisy at all. My mixer makes more noise than this! It is easy to clean and I have found making bread fun again! Experimenting with various recipes I have found a great one to use all around for bread, dinner rolls, hamburger/hot dog buns, hoagie rolls and cinnamon rolls! You won’t be disappointed in purchasing this machine because it has so much you can do with it and is very easy to use!

Love this bread maker! Use it at least once a week! The recipes are easy to follow. Even found more recipes online! It’s so simple add ingredients per recipe set your desired settings and hit play! It notifies you once it’s completed!

Works great! I use it a few times a week since purchase which was a couple of years ago.

Seems to be struggling kneading bread but from what I can see it's kneaded throughly- very easy to operate.So far it hasn't bounced around on countertop either. I'm making basic white bread. I'm not big on cup they provide because it's hard to read- that could be an improvement.- although I did use it. So if you're looking for an easy operate bread machine like I was- this is it! And the price was good. It is larger than I expected size wise- not a compact bread machine- so I'll have to do some rearranging to store it somewhere. At the cost of groceries in our economy- I can make several loaves of bread out of the ingredients purchased for the bread machine- cheaper in the long run to purchase a bread machine and make your own. I rated it a 4 star ONLY because it seemed to struggle kneading and I did notice as it was kneading the glass steamed up so it was difficult to see inside. I don't think you'll regret this bread machine- so go for it - I had it in my cart for awhile before I decided while looking around- the win- win was easy operation for me.

Absolutely love this machine! I make a loaf of bread every 4 days. I use the dough cycle and bake it in the oven simply because I like the shape of oven baked bread better. I also use it to mix dough for yeast rolls on Thanksgiving and Christmas. I highly recommend this Hamilton Beach bread maker.

This makes making bread so easy! It is easy to use and clean. It takes up less space on the counter than my air fryer. The instructions book explains all the settings. It’s really easy to use! I have made several different kinds of bread and they have all turned out. The machine is consistent with cooking the bread. It’s definitely worth the money.

TLDR: The #3 menu setting for gluten free is programmed incorrectly. You need to use a spatula to help mix the ingredients and then it kneads (3) times, resulting in an inedible, solid brick. Gluten free eating is frustrating and expensive enough, get a machine that has positive *gluten free* ratings or is fully programmable. This one isn’t it. -- Hamilton Beach is my go-to brand or now, was. I purchased this machine and made multiple loaves; none were acceptable. I tried different recipes, different ingredients and spent quite a bit of money. Frustrated, I turned to YouTube, which I rarely visit. I found “GFJules” who reviewed this exact machine. She offered a tip to run your machine without ingredients to ensure you know what the cycles do. After this one started the second knead she boxed it up and returned it. She did offer a suggestion though, to try “Basic” or “Quick” settings looking for (1) mix, (1) rise and (1) bake. Since I had tried using it longer, my return window had closed. I contacted Hamilton Beach asking if this machine was defective, and if they would provide an expanded matrix of the settings. (My previous machine manual fully explained each setting, with X minutes for 1st knead, X minutes for rest, X minutes for 2nd knead, X minutes to rise, X minutes to bake, etc.) I want THAT information and consider it mandatory for any bread machine manual. Here is the exact response I received from Shelinda at Hamilton Beach “Customer Care”: Unfortunately, the break down times of each cycle for the settings is not provided. We do apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you again for contacting Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc. So, Hamilton Beach is aware the machine is programmed incorrectly and isn’t interested in a correction or even providing a potential work-around. Don’t waste your money with this unit. To be clear, I did NOT use any of the other settings. I would imagine this is an adequate unit for regular loaves, and the ability to put the pan in the dishwasher is spectacular. My review is related to Gluten Free ONLY.

I recently purchased the Hamilton Beach Bread Maker Machine, and it has been a wonderful addition to my kitchen. This machine is incredibly user-friendly and versatile, with 12 different settings that cater to a variety of bread types, including gluten-free options. The digital programmable feature makes it easy to set up and forget, allowing me to focus on other tasks while the bread is baking. The 2 lb capacity is perfect for my family, and the dishwasher-safe pan and kneading paddle make cleanup a breeze. One of my favorite aspects is the ability to customize the crust shade and loaf size, ensuring that every loaf comes out just the way I like it. The machine operates quietly, and the viewing window lets me keep an eye on the progress without lifting the lid. Overall, the Hamilton Beach Bread Maker Machine has exceeded my expectations. It consistently produces delicious, fresh bread with minimal effort. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy homemade bread with ease!

This is the most aweful machine, comes with a 2 pin plug, is so noisy, moved around so frightened to leave it without supervising ( once fell off the work surface it moved around so much) even with the right setting for the right sized loaf. Hardly used I am so disgusted I am going to throw it away

Perfeita.

This thing has been put through the ringer and is still going strong. Works well and makes great bread

Me gusta que es silenciosa y eficiente.

BETTER HALF MAKES FANTASTIC BREAD WITH THESE THINGS!!! They are NOT for use a few times a week though..lol..this is not our first one. They sure don't last that long..BUT still receive a 5 star rating
