Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Wake up to the smell of freshly baked bread with this programmable bread machine. Simply add the ingredients, choose from several options using the touch-pad controls, and it takes care of the rest. It will mix the ingredients, knead the dough, let it rise, and bake it to perfection--soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. Choose from 1-, 1-1/2-, and 2-pound sizes and three crust settings--light, medium, or dark. Once the baking has completed, the machine switches to a one-hour keep-warm cycle that keeps bread warm without over-cooking. The unit's 12 program settings include basic, French, whole wheat, sweet, quick, brown, and super rapid for 1-1/2- and 2-pound loaves, plus dough, bagel dough, jam, and bake settings. Other highlights include delay start, an audible alert for adding "extras", a viewing window, an easy-to-read blue backlit LCD control panel, and a non-stick pan for effortless loaf removal and quick clean-up. Recipes come included. Attractively housed in durable stainless steel, the 490-watt bread machine measures 13-1/2 by 12-1/2 by 11-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

So far, so good!,
This review is from: West Bend 41200 Programmable Bread Machine, Stainless (Kitchen)
Purchased this West Bend model after hours of research on the internet. Was unwilling to risk problems associated with other brands/models. I was looking for something under [...], reliable, relatively quiet, easy to use, preferrably stainless (although not absolutely necessary) and of course, made a good loaf of bread. I also liked the fact that this one was a little smaller than others I considered. So far, I'm very happy with this machine, and if it continues to hold up over time, I will continue to pass on good reviews.
***Update 9/2009 I've learned the key to good bread is, of course, having a good recipe, and using yeast specifically made for bread machines. I've found two recipes I really like on [...] and am passing this on to help others avoid wasting time and money like I did! (The two I am using are the whole wheat w/cereal, and the raisin cinnamon. I don't know that the flour makes a lot of difference, but I'm also using the Gold Medal mixed with Hodgson's Mill Whole Wheat, and putting in the extra cinnamon and a bit more raisins for the other recipe.) Easy and delicious! I'm very glad I bought this machine and started making bread that is so much healthier and tastier than most of what you find at the local supermarket!

Still Working After All These Years.,
This review is from: West Bend 41200 Programmable Bread Machine, Stainless (Kitchen)
Though the shape and design has changed over the years, my West Bend is still going strong. It was given to me as a gift at least ten years ago.
Making bread has never been easier. Pour in water. Dump in flour, salt and yeast. Push button. The bread machine does everything else, including that dreadful kneading. I've experimented many times by adding garlic, olives, cheese, pepperoni, or whatever I can think of. I lessen slightly the amount of water when tossing in wet ingredients such as black olives. It's fun and the bread is delicious. If this West Bend ever fails I will seek another.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: West Bend 41200 Programmable Bread Machine, Stainless (Kitchen)
I'm a novice breadmaker, but the West Bend machine is just what I was hoping it would be. Easy to use and super easy to clean. And the bread is terrific, with a nice crust.
