I swear by Panasonic. I'm on my second Panasonic bread machine. Here it is:

We have been using Panasonic 2 lbs breads bread makers and run them once or twice daily. The first one we bought about 26 yr ago. We have replaced parts and belts. Yup this one-

We use baker's yeast and grind our own flour.

I love my bread machine. I always use the dough setting which brings the dough through the first rising. Then, I take it out, put it in my regular loaf pan, let it rise a second time, then bake it. Works perfectly for me.
Personally, I have begun to not even shape my dough before setting it in the loaf pan. I just make sure it is evenly spread out in the pan. It smooths out as it rises. This doesn't take longer than if I had let the machine do the baking and I get a regular shaped loaf of bread.

I bought the Zojirushi bread maker to replace my old Breadman. I am very happy that I did! I love the Zojirushi and it hasn't failed to bake everything I put in it perfectly. It is totally programmable to make all your regular homemade recipes. It was a little "pricey" but in my opinion worth every penny.

When I was nineteen, a friend taught me how to make bread, as well as how to braid it. It became part of my weekly routine. Then I discovered bread makers. Oh happy day! About 20 years ago I bought an Oster. It made 2.5 lb loaves. I have used it constantly since then. I have made pizza, cinnamon rolls, and all sorts of breads. The bread that I make most often is an herb bread. It has dill, basil, rosemary and onions in it. I have made a variation using garlic and Italian seasoning. I have made banana/macadamia bread, whole wheat with honey and almonds, pepperoni cheese bread, rye bread, Pumpernickel bread, raisin bread, hamburger buns, etc. I wouldn't want to be without it. In the fall and winter, I make a lot of soups and stews and fresh baked bread is a perfect accompaniment. This winter I plan to try my hand at making bread bowls to put soup in. I love the way the house smells when I am baking bread. It makes my house smell like a bakery.
I am going to be looking for a new breadmaker soon. I want another one that makes 2.5 lb loaves, because a lot of the recipes that I like to make are for a 2.5 lb loaf. The last time that I checked, West Bend and also Zojirushi made breadmakers that could make a 2.5 lb loaf. Most of the others make only up to 2.0 lb. If anyone knows of a 2.5 lb machine, please let me know.

I also wanted to mention that for anyone looking for breadmaker recipes--go to Amazon, search for breadmakers, then check each one for a pdf manual and download a few. Most of them have an abundance of great recipes. I recently went to the Oster website and looked for the manual to my machine. I was able to download the pdf manual. Most of the recipes that I mentioned in my last post are in that manual.
