+ Nice design, easy to store

- Bread does not last long, crusts are too hard no matter what setting you put it on.

+ Ease of use; collapsable blade minimising hole in bread at the end of baking; reliable recipes.

- Very small breadmaker so not suitable for a large family!

Angela, Hanbury

+ This machine is perfect , it is much quieter than my old bread maker which was also a Morphy Richards . It is easy to use and sits nicely in the corner. The quality of the bread it makes is good . Hope it lasts as long as my last one (14 years). I make a loaf at least 5 times a week and every -one has been perfect.

Jacqui, Porthmadog

+ This is a compact breadmaker and using the small bread setting makes a loaf using half a pack of most bread mixes, which is the perfect size for fresh bread daily for two. The recipes provided are fine too.

- The worst feature is the one i thought would be best - the folding paddle. It does fold - every time, but is always completely buried in the finished loaf of bread. The loaf is often a devil to get out of the pan and then I always have to dig the paddle out of the bread, and it's harder to remove than a conventional paddle. This results in a slightly mangled loaf with a hole in the bottom. It makes me wonder who tests these things.

+ Compact, very easy to use. Good recipe book included. Have already recommended to family and friends

- Sometimes the paddle is awkward to get out of the loaf, leaving a small hole behind. Because of not being able to immerse the baking pan fully in water, the spindle at the base of the pan can be difficult to clean properly if the bread has baked around it. However, rubbing with a dish cloth with remove any residue eventually

Deletta, Aldbourne

+ Easy to use with consistently good results (as long as bread mixes are not used).

- The mixing paddle always ends up embedded in the loaf.
The viewing panel and operating buttons are on the top of the breadmaker and can therefore be difficult to read.

Vivian, Battle

+ It replaced my previous Morphy Richards breadmaker, so I was familiar with its controls. I find that it is better, more even baking

- Probably need to familiarise with instructions more, but after baking completed, it sometimes switches the element back on

+ Easy to use. Compact. Easy to clean. Incredibly easy to make jam!

- I need to keep it at front of worktop in order to read the various settings - I wonder if there is some way that they could be shown on the front instead of on top?

+ Good all round bread maker with little problem in use or results. We have been using this breadmaker for several months now and except for the paddle (see bad points) have had no trouble.

- The paddle persistently sticks in the base of the bread and we have to dig it out. Its not a major thing and something we have got used to.

+ Produces a good even loaf of bread.

- Blade is difficult to get out and the bowl is hard at first to twist in and out of the breadmaker but once you get used to it, it is ok.

- The blade is hard to remove from the finished loaf. At first, the machine made metal on metal grinding noises. These have stopped since the third time of use.

+ makes lovely bread in about 3 hours, from adding mixture to turning out to cool. Every loaf has been a success.

- sometimes difficult to get hot inner basket out as it needs to be turned and has a flimsy handle, so need to use oven gloves..

+ Small, easy to use, excellent value for money.

- Blade a little fiddly to remove from bread but OK once you get the knack. Makes a 3/4 size square loaf rather than a really big rectangular one, also have to add extra ingredients such as currents manually rather than having an automatic dispenser. However, given the price and compactness of this model I am still very happy with it and use it several times a week.
