Product Description Think about how lovely it would be to wake up to the aroma of baking bread, and how equally satisfying it would be to present a warm, soft loaf of yeast or quick bread at the table for any meal. This programmable machine makes it so easy, there's no excuse for not making your own breads. You can put all the ingredients into the machine the night before, or the morning of, and program it to have the bread ready and waiting at the appropriate time.
Amazon.com Review What used to be a time-consuming, messy process is now a snap. Measure the ingredients into the Breadman Plus, push a few buttons, then go for a walk in the park. Return a few hours later--or after a good night's sleep--to the unforgettable aroma and taste of homemade bread. This machine will even make the jam to top it off.The Breadman Ultimate makes and bakes most kinds of yeast bread--white, whole wheat, rye, honey banana, or crusty French--as well as quick or batter breads. Try the recipes in the booklet or your own favorites--just be sure the dry ingredients total less than about 5 cups so the dough doesn't overflow the 9-1/2-inch (nonstick) baking pan. If your recipe calls for adding ingredients late in the kneading cycle, there's a tray to hold and automatically dispense them. If you want to make bread that doesn't conform to the loaf shape, the machine can mix and raise the dough prior to shaping for baking in a conventional oven. For the beginner the process couldn't be easier, and even if you're an old hand at making bread from scratch, you'll find yourself baking much more frequently. And this machine quickly pays for itself: think of how many $3 or $4 loaves you won't be buying over the bread maker's lifetime! One drawback is worth noting: If you're a fan of the Breadman Plus, you may be less satisfied with the mixing results of the Ultimate's single bread hook versus the Plus's dual dough hooks. --Toni Reineke

I love this breadmaker! August 5, 2010 Christine I've had my Breadman Ultimate for 8 years and I've used it HUNDREDS(!) of times in those 8 years. It has not broken down, not even once. It still looks and performs as well as it did the first day I bought it. It's amazing! I can definitely vouch for the quality and dependability of this brand. It's worth every penny and more.
The pan is very easy to clean. The kneading paddle is detachable, which makes it very easy to clean, as well. After baking, I usually soak the pan and the kneading paddle with water. After a few minutes of soaking, the pan and the paddle can be wiped clean.
There's nothing like waking up to the smell of freshly-baked bread. Just put the ingredients in the pan, set the timer and this breadmaker will have a loaf of bread ready for you to eat when you wake up. It even has a 60-minute power failure back up so that it doesn't lose the timer settings even if you lose power for a while.
90% of the time, I use the 'dough only' setting because I make rolls and pastries more than loaves. Many times, I have forgotten to take out the dough in time, resulting in the dough overflowing and spilling down to the heating coils. It takes a while to clean the coils, but even after incidents like these, my Breadman Ultimate functioned perfectly and never broke down. That just goes to show how sturdy it is.
I can't give a review about other brands because this is the first and only breadmaker I've ever bought, and it looks like I won't be needing a new one for many, many years.
Help me find a better breadmaker February 5, 2010 M. Farrell (Spokane, WA USA) I am on my second Breadman machine. I use it every day. The problem I have is: the pans wear out. I went through three pans with my first machine. Now the pan on my second machine is leaking. It is expensive to keep buying replacement pans from the company. So I am wondering if there is a better brand of machine. The Breadman is not cheap, but I purchased it because it seemed to have good ratings. Now I wonder if I should try another brand. As I said, I make a loaf almost every day of the year, so I need a machine that will hold up over the long haul. I don't need a lot of fancy cycles like the Breadman. I only use the whole wheat loaf cycle with the over-night delay and the dough cycle for pizza dough or rolls.
Suggestions welcome.
Great Workhorse! Wonderful flexibility to create your own breads. January 23, 2009 Mixamaster (Tucson, AZ USA) I have had my Breadman ultimate TR2200C for nearly eight years now. I bake one to three loaves per week, and figure I have made over a thousand loaves with this machine alone. I love being able to program and experiment with different recipes, rising and heating cycles, etc. If you are a real bread baker, or you want to learn and need the flexibility to experiment with your breads, this is the machine for you.
I have to say that mine has been a real workhorse--it keeps chugging away. I killed the first pan and paddle after about three years, and my second one is dead now. (The second one got better care.) I was considering replacing it, but the inside clips that are supposed to hold the pan tight are getting loose now. A few times, the pan has hopped right out and then there is a REAL racket! At this point I think there is just too much "movement" in the whole machine, but I *definitely* got my money's worth.
Pros: This machine just keeps working. The recipes were a real help to get me started, and I like having the cycles all laid out in the chart in the manual. (If you haven't seen it, the manual comes with a complete listing of times and temperatures for each cycle or cycle variation.) I don't use the add-in tray much and it doesn't seem to work anymore--this could be an issue of it getting gummed up though. This is a one-paddle model--if I haven't measured carefully the dough doesn't pick up everything from the sides and I have to scrape them down. However, it makes a distinctive sound when the dough is kneading properly, so I just try to stop by and listen while it is working. I've never had a yeast rising problem, but live in the Arizona desert for what it is worth. (Note: I always use baker's yeast and gently mix it in with the flour right at the top above the paddle.) I use delay bake all the time and never have a problem, but generally use a preheated cycle.
Cons: It took Salton four MONTHS to replace my pan and paddle. Lots of nice people with promises, but it was back-ordered "10 days or so" FOREVER. Now that the machine is wearing out, I have to be very sure the pan is clipped in, or it will "jump up" above the shaft and bang around. This is a very recent problem though. I will be buying another Breadman high-end model, just haven't decided which one.Breadman TR2200C Ultimate Bread Machine
