i own this breadmaker, this is my 2nd breadman and i just love it. i bought one before for my daughter in law then my girlfriend bought one also, i had another breadman which was old but still worked but couldnt do the 59 min. bread or cheesecake my girlfriend never had the time to bake bread with all her familly working and she never used it so i bought it from her the best investment i made in 2007. through the years ive owned several breadmakers and now i would only own a breadman.
