Looks great in matt silver. Quite light, which is handy if you keep it in the cupboard when not being used, as I do. Easy to understand instructions. Very quiet and the first loaf was a great success. The non-stick coating is an improvement on my previous bread machine (also a Panasonic), which was used a lot but finally stopped working after several years.

Very good quality item. Cooks bread very well. Beats store purchased bread hands down. Just a pity it doesn’t slice the bread also.

Brilliant and versatile.

So glad I bought this Bread Maker! It's simple to use - espcially with the separate yeast adder and seed/dried fruits adder. It also keeps very clean as the bread making area is non-stick. On top of that we are very happy with the white and brown bread we have made and use it every few days. Pizza dough is my next test, but I'm sure it will pass it with flying colours. Good value for money and great quality.

Replaced an earlier Panasonic bread maker which worked well but had fewer features than this and very pleased with its performance, especially the rye option and automatic yeast and raisin dispenser. Top quality as usual from Panasonic .

Our old Panasonic bread machine was well over 15 years old and still working, this new one steps up a gear making loads of different breads effortlessly , but it's a Panasonic just get one and forget the rest.
