Was unsure at first, but so glad we got this. It doesn't come with a recipe book but easy enough to download a specific one from their website. Bread comes out really light and with a firm crust. We have managed to turn out a decent wholemeal loaf yet but trail and error. The machine it self is easy to use and keep clean, and just does what it is ment to. We didn't plan on spending so much on a bread maker as we didn't know if it would get the use, but so far used every day and have not bought from the shop since purchase. We prefer the .750kg loaf as the 1kg is just taller and won't fit in the toaster, and a bread slicer is a must to get proper slices to make it worth while.

This bread maker is easy to use and clean and makes great bread without the big hole in bottom like some machines. Great buy

Used straight away after unwrapping, easy to use but the best bit was the smell and taste of freshly baked bread, it’s fantastic. Just a side note didn’t get much of an he bread as everyone who came round wanted some, have to bake more.

Be aware that this bread maker comes without documentation. Our package contained just the main unit and two paddles; one fixed and one retractable. There was no instruction booklet or even a recipe book despite there being a holder on the rear of the machine to keep them in! Conatcted Sage who sent me a link to some PDFs!! Not the best customer service so beware.

Well made, stylish and very easy to use. Bread is cooked nicely and there are plenty of menu options.

Well made and the collapsible paddle means there is no large gaping hole in the centre of the base of the loaf. Easy to programme with delicious results.

This is a great little machine, sturdy build and very easy to use. The display is clear to read and follow. It takes me 10 minutes to get the ingredients together and start the machine on a baking cycle. As long as your ingredients are correct, you get a lovely loaf everytime. One thing I don't like is that the kneading paddle is a little difficult to get out, so I can clean the baking tray properly (I might be doing it wrong). This is the reason for dropping a star, otherwise it would be 5 stars.

First of all fantastic next day delivery-well done! Considered this Breadmaker some time ago but was too expensive in UK. Now reduced by £100 I decided to buy one. It has made 2 very nice white loaves so far. The fully user programmable settings look very useful as I can change the times and the temperatures but not tried yet. The folding dough hook works as expected and helps reduce the size of the hole left behind. Those reviews complaining about this are over critical in my opinion. Disappointed that the recipe book and measuring cups are not included which is penny pinching ! The dough mixing cycle includes a reversing action, which none of my previous machines had, which probably helps. Overall very pleased so far.
