Panasonic SD-YR2550 Fully Automatic Bread maker, with Yeast/Raisin & Nuts Dispenser, 31 Programmes, 4 Gluten-Free Mode, Dual Temperature Sensors, 13 Hours Digital Timer, Silver

This an awesome bread maker. It is large but have it in the corner of my kitchen worktop for ease of use when adding additional ingredients. Comes with instructions and recipes and is easy to use plus Panasonic has additional receipes on their website. Every loaf has been a success, I've made white, wholemeal and fruit loaves plus used it for making cookie dough. The bread is amazing and tastes like bread should, like when I was a kid with non of the nasties that shop bought bread has. It's durable and well made, and for me is good value for money, has a delay timer, for fresh bread every other day. Other than the smacking noise when the yeast is being added this is a low noise machine. So glad we've purchased and wished we'd done this sooner.

We had an older Panasonic but bought this one because it's thermostat is an upgrade. Being gluten free we hoped this would give a better result and it has. Makes a tasty well shaped gluten free loaf. Easy and qiet to use, easy to adapt the recipe, solid good quality machine. Definitely recommend.

The Panasonic SD-YR2550SXC Fully Automatic Breadmaker has revolutionized my baking routine, enabling me to create delicious, healthy bread twice a week with ease. Incorporating my favourite ingredients like sundried tomatoes and black olives has never been easier, thanks to this machine's intuitive design and functionality. One of the standout features of this breadmaker is its horizontal design, which not only saves counter space but also produces bread that closely resembles traditional loaves in shape and appearance. The inclusion of a yeast dispenser is a game-changer, ensuring that yeast is added at the optimal time during the baking process, resulting in perfect rise and texture every time. The variety of settings available on the SD-YR2550SXC is impressive, allowing for the creation of a wide range of bread types, doughs, and even jams. The ability to customise each bake to include healthy ingredients of my choice has been fantastic. The additional recipe book I purchased has been a great source of inspiration, introducing me to new recipes that the whole family enjoys. However, it's important to note that, like any kitchen appliance, there is a learning curve. One crucial step not to overlook is the replacement of the inside arm after cleaning. Missing this step can lead to a moment of panic, as I learned the hard way. Yet, once you get accustomed to the setup and cleaning process, it becomes second nature. The Panasonic SD-YR2550SXC is incredibly user-friendly, making it accessible to bakers of all skill levels. Whether you're an experienced baker or trying your hand at bread making for the first time, the controls are straightforward and the manual provides clear instructions. In conclusion, the Panasonic SD-YR2550SXC Breadmaker is a superb addition to any kitchen. It combines convenience with versatility, allowing for the creation of a wide variety of healthy, homemade breads. While there is a small learning curve, particularly with maintenance, the quality of the bread produced and the satisfaction of baking from scratch more than compensate for it. This breadmaker has certainly earned its place on my countertop, and I look forward to many more years of delicious baking adventures.

Absolutely thrilled with this bread machine. Absolute life changer!! Insanely easy to use and have fresh bread. I refuse to ever buy a loaf of bread again it is that good. 3 hours I have the most perfect delicious wholemeal loaf of bread with no nasies whatsoever. Kids love the bread too. Timer function is great. Size is perfect. I bought a new/used edition. There was a small cosmetic dint in the side wall but does not remotely affect its use. Very pleased for the price I was able to pick this up for too.

So far so good, have made a few different loaves of bread, follow the menus and guidance and it's remarkably easy. Very impressed by the results, I can't believe you just put all the ingredients in and it produces the finished product. Produces an excellent pizza dough, the ingredients added produced two large pizza bases, better than the supermarket ready made pizza dough in a packet. Easy to clean, just twist and remove the bucket and clean, ready for the next bake. Haven't had any problems with the rotating paddle stuck in the bread like others, if anything paddle can be stuck in the bucket needing a little wiggle to remove.

Excellent product I cannot fault it, all thr loaves I have made so far are fantastic much better than shop bought bread, very easy to use and clean, it is value for money as I am not wasting the bread, the texture and the taste is delicious I cannot wait for it to cool down, it is quiet

Great breadmaker. I like the yeast dispenser. Really handy when delaying the start of loaf. Gives a good rise. The display is helpful because it is clear what is happening inside. I would have liked a back-light to come onto the display when setting the programme. I have taken to using a torch so that I can see what loaf size that I'm selecting.

Love this machine! Im trying to live a lifestyle that has less UPF in it plus was diagnosed with a chronic illness that doesn't allow me to use my hands as I once did. I have been debating whether to get one for some years but since my diagnosis, it pushed me into purchasing one. I chose this one as it was highly rated. It so easy to use, effortless, and consistent loaves each time. I do nothing but weigh my ingredients, and push a few buttons, 3-4 hours later I have a loaf of freshly baked bread! Im so happy with my breadmaker, it's a must have gadget in my kitchen. I've baked white loaves, wholemeal, 50/50 loaves, white raisin loaf and a cinnamon raisin loaf. I baked around 2 loaves per week for hubby and myself. Our local bakery sells white loaves for £3.00 for a comparable size ! I purchased this back in July, I just wanted to use it a couple of months before reviewing, it still gets 5 🌟

Have only made a couple of loaves so far but pleased with the results. Not too many recipes in the manual and the settings are a bit difficult until you get your head around them. Seems well made and sturdy. Not too noisy. A lot of programmes which allow you to try a lot of different breads. Overall happy with my purchase xx

One of the best bread machine, doing everything amazing kneading and baking

Meine frühere einfache Brotbackmaschine ist mittlerweile kaputt gegangen, nach 10 jahren und wollte diesmal etwas besseres zulegen. Ich bin wirklich begeistert. Die Brote sind immer super. Der Teig ist einfach wirklich gut gemacht. Der Brotbackautomat schafft es den Teig immer irgendwie schön sämig zu rühren. Entsprechend ist der Brotteig nach dem Backen absolut homogen perfekt. Keine grösseren Luftlöcher oder irgendwelche Makel. Was ich ebenfalls gut finde ist, dass der rührer, also dieser propeller, wie ein stumpfes messer ist, dadurch schneidet es sich in 80% der Fälle durch den Brotteig sobald man das Brot aus dem Schüssel kippt. Das finde ich ganz praktisch. Ansonsten hat es relativ viele programme und einige gimmicks, wie Rosinen streuer oder hefe streuer, aber da ich meistens nur brotbackmischungen verwende, ist das mir persönlich relativ egal. Ausprobiert hab ich es aber und es funktioniert ansich auch einwandfrei. Hatten auch mal Kuchenteig zusammenrühren lassen, klappt auch ganz gut. Das Backergebnis ist übrigens auch gleichmässig, mit 3 bräunungstufen. Kann ich somit empfehlen.

Amazing machine . Fast and easy delivery . It came earlier than expected.

Works very well. The controls can be difficult to remember how to use if used infrequently. Several times I've thought it is running but come back an hour later to find a silent device.
