Delicious bread with an all-in-one design!
*Update 5/6/2013*
Still working just as good as ever! The inside still looks like new. Only now after a few years is the exterior starting to show any wear. The white "Breadman" logo on the black glossy exterior of this bread machine has started to wear off a little (from being washed/wiped down with wet clothes). Other than that everything still looks and works as it always has.

Sill using it all the time and still loving it. Never had a single problem. The non-stick coating on the inside is still perfect, no scratches and is still releasing bread flawlessly. Over the last 2 years of owning this I've never once had a single problem.

Over a year later and it still works like it's brand new. I still make bread in it all the time and have never had any issues.

Upon receiving the Breadman BK2000B, the first thing I noticed was how visually striking this appliance is. It is large,...
Revised review! It just died, no power after 2 months!

Received the replacement, so far so good. I'll update if it suffers a similar problem as its predecessor did.

I finally received a call back, the rep asked me many questions to ascertain if it was fixable. It was not. As this is a brand new model, I was the only person to date that had encountered this problem, yay me! :-(
The solution was to cut off the plug & mail it in a padded mailer & upon arrival they will replace the faulty unit. I certainly will put the new unit to a MUCH more rigorous baking schedule than I had the previous one, to make sure if is is going to fail, it will while still under warranty! I will continue to post my results!

Below is a copy of my follow up email to the manufacturer after waiting DAYS for the return call (an option they give you after waiting on hold twice as long as they say your wait time would be, I gave up after 20+ minutes!)
If I ever get a...
UPDATED: A little bakery in a box
*UPDATED
I have had the Breadman for 2 years now and use it fairly often. Some things have broken: the nut dispenser was DOA and badly designed. (But not worth the packing up and returning for a new one.) One of the collapsible paddles broke from metal fatigue. And they never really collapse to the flat profile that is promised. What I tend to use is one or two of the 1 lb loaf pans and the non-collapsible paddles. I baked a white wheat-buttermilk bread with golden flaxseeds (my recipe) on the 1 lb, Whole Wheat Cycle, last weekend and it's some of the best bread I've made. I would say, this unit is not as durable as I'd have liked, but it has done well for me. However, if I had a big household and baked every week, I wonder if the unit would have lasted me as long.
We have a non-wheat eater at home, and we are not alone. Many people these days have found out they are intolerant to gluten, and others eat low-carb breads while losing or maintaining weight. Standard...
