Panasonic SD-YD250 Bread Machine

Pros: This bread machine "thinks" like a professional baker.
Cons: So far- I cannot think of anything I do not like about this one!

I am a homeschool mother of 3 and in demand all day every day. I desired to bake healthy, whole grain breads for my family, overall because I really want them to eat nourishing whole foods, but also because health issues such as ADHD effect one of my ...

Pros: great fresh bread, easy to clean, easy to use
Cons: Um, maybe size? I have no complaint!

I purchased my Panasonic bread maker a few months ago, and I wish I'd done it sooner! It replaced a small Welbilt I've had for some time. Just toss in the ingredients, and bingo! Fresh-baked bread without the hassle.

OK, you really do have...

Pros: easy to use, clean, and store - great bread
Cons: slightly limited cookbook

We have had our bread machine for 3 years now. It's wonderful! Of course, we haven't tried every recipe, and we don't use it daily, or even weekly. I think if we did, our calorie intake would increase by just too much! Oh, it's wonderful!

Pros: Great Bread!
Cons: Takes a while

I have had my bread maker for years. I love it. I notice that I go through spurts with it. I will use it a lot for a while, and then barely ever for a while. But over all, I really appreciate the bread it makes. The main draw back is how long it...

Pros: excellent bread, beautiful domed crust, great manual, recipes for three sizes, solid construction
Cons: it's really more vertical than horizontal, except for the smallest size

I did a lot of online research and decided to go with Panasonic -- I have never had a bad experience with that company, and the reviews looked good. I ordered from Amazon, which means free shipping and good reliability. I never had any complaints about ...

Pros: Wonderful bread, beautifully cooked, perfect almost every time
Cons: Difficult to clean inside the machine, occasional 'flops'

A brief history as to why I have entitled this opinion as I have. When my friends were married 7 years ago, they were bought this bread maker (or its earlier version, the SD) by her parents. We spent a couple of summers round their house (they ...

Pros: Timer function up to 13 hours; excellent quality loaves
Cons: The hot bread tastes so good that there's never any left for sandwiches!

I've had my Panasonic Breadmaker for 4 years and I still use it 3-4 times a week. If I use the timer function to coincide with my son's alarm clock, getting him out of bed is not a problem. He appears in the kitchen for breakfast as soon as he smells...

Pros: Consistently produces great bread
Cons: Pricier than other choices on market and sometimes difficult to find.

I approached the purchase of a bread machine seriously. I frequently make my own bread by hand so I was comparing what I could produce with a machine to homemade bread and not just the grocery store variety. I purchased several types of machines and...

Pros: A well made, capable machine.
Cons: I'd like to see a manufacturer resolve the bearing problem. It is doable.

Panasonic SD-YD250 bread machine. We are cooks, bread makers and big bread eaters and we have owned many bread machines over the years. More importantly, we know what a good loaf of bread looks, feels and tastes like. The Achilles’ heal of ...

Pros: Delicious!
Cons: Don't burn yourself!

When my mom replaced her old bread maker with the Panasonic Automatic Bread Maker, I was hesitant. The price was deffinate cause for pause. However, the Panasonic machine blew the other out of the water. The machine is convenient to use... put in the...

Pros: Eat Healthier, overnight program, automatic yeast dispenser.
Cons: A little large

After I saw my mother in law's bread maker in France I told my self I had to also enjoy the wonders of waking up to the smell of fresh bread in the morning. I did a few searches and finally decided on the Panasonic SD-YD250. I've come to trust ...

Pros: Durable and easy to use
Cons: A little expensive

I have owned my bread maker for about 6 months now. My husband bought it for me as a gift. I love it. I'm one that can't cook a lot of yummy things without burning them or totally messing them up. Now I can make all different kinds of breads, donuts,...

Pros: Makes great breads with great crusts
Cons: Recipes in manual very American, No network card :)

Moving from Germany to the US one and half years back was a great thing. I love the US and am happy here. But (there is a "but" to it, of course - would be too picture perfect if it wouldn't) most of the bread you can buy here is really different from...

Pros:  - Timer feature  - Lots of options  - Recipe book included
Cons:  - Blade removal occasionally difficult - Beeping - Can't use timer for dough

I would make two loaves a day just to keep the kitchen smelling like freshly baked bread! I purchased this machine, the Panasonic SD-YD250,  for my parents because it is going to be kept in a vacation home in location where a loaf of regular ...

Pros: Healthy, whole grain bread
Cons: Hole at the bottom of loaf -- can't pass off as oven-baked!

I bought my Panasonic 100% Whole Wheat Bread Machine when it first came out about 10 years ago, and I have to say that it is the most durable of any appliance I have ever bought. I have used it WEEKLY for the past ten years, and although I only make...
