Providing myriad options, this automatic bread maker embodies the marvels of 21st century electronic convenience and choice. Yes, it mixes, kneads, rises, and bakes bread in three loaf sizes up to 2-1/2 pounds. But its digital controls go much further, offering settings for white, whole wheat, multigrain, and French (crisp crust, open texture) breads, each made according to what's best for that particular style. Other settings permit rapid baking and baking sandwich bread with a soft crust. For raisin (or other dried-fruit) bread, a beeper signals when to add the fruit so it's not crushed during kneading. Crust color--dark or light--can be selected as well. The machine automatically adds yeast at the proper time from a dispenser on the unit's lid. It also bakes non-yeast, quick breads-- like banana and gingerbread--and sweet cakes. And it mixes, kneads, and rises doughs for pizza, focaccia, croissants, and other pastries without baking them. A timer permits the machine to be programmed up to 13 hours in advance so fresh bread or cake is available for breakfast or dinner. For cleanup convenience, the baking pan is nonstick. Clad in metal and packing 550 watts of power, the machine measures 14 inches wide, 13.5 inches high, and 9 inches deep. Its instruction booklet is exceptionally easy to understand and includes recipes for 40 breads and doughs along with an insightful guide to baking basics and illustrated tips for making pastries. --Fred Brack

 Worth the money July 19, 2008

I only had limited experience with this machine so far. It is very very good. The crust and chewy center are excellent. There are bread machines at 1/4 of the price but it's worth every penny.
 ACCESSORIES OVERPRICED!!!!! July 16, 2008

I love this bread machine. I've been using it consistently for about a year, making about 2-3 loaves a week. Unfortunately, the nonstick coating is coming off of the bread pan and the kneading paddle. I called Panasonic for the replacement parts. The total with the shipping would be $99.00. That's insane!!!! I'm going to buy a different bread maker. The parts are too overpriced.
Panasonic SD-YD250 Breadmaker a winner July 12, 2008
Federico Santi (Newport RI)
Just finished a Corned Beef on my home made Rye and it was great. Feel a little more independent being able to make such a wide variety of bread in my own kitchen. With bread often selling for $5.00 and not really knowing the ingredients, I can now make my families bread easily and more economically that in the recent past.
Thanks
Excellent machine July 10, 2008

My parents have used a Panasonic Breadmaker for over 10 years in England with tremendous success. I used their one and was so impressed with the ease of use, and the results, that I came back to the States and immediately purchased this model from Amazon.
I have made white, wholemeal, and 10 grain bread, all with amazing results. I have used the machine to make dough for pita bread and baguettes. The pocket bread recipe was in the British Panasonic book, but similar to those available on the web. Fantastic result - all puffed up in the oven and so much better than the purchased ones. I am now looking at sourdough recipes and seeing if I can adapt that to the Panasonic. I see that the Zojirushi has a program for that but I didn't want to buy that make because of having such good results with my parent's Panasonic.
My only criticism is the state of the packing job by Amazon. The first machine came in the Panasonic box that had a big gash in it. That box was loosely placed in an enormous Amazon box. The machine was on it's back and when I opened the box it had a dent in it's side, right by the computer part of the breadmaker. I called and e-mailed Amazon and it was collected the next day by U.P.S. - excellent service. The second breadmaker arrived a couple of weeks later from a different distribution point but very poorly packed, once again ignoring the manufacturer's instructions and arrows to stand on the breadmaker on it's base. I closely examined the machine and have used it successfully. Maybe Amazon doesn't have the right size boxes to pack Panasonics but if that is the case they need to use better packing materials around the contents. There was no packing under either of my machines and flattened inflatable bags on the top of one (the damaged one) and loose brown paper on the second.
If Amazon reads this, please pay attention!
Great Breadmaker.
