Review: Perfect for complete novice - First I must admit I am a complete novice. I had never even baked cookies in my life. However, I wanted to eat some fresh bread, and healthier bread (I don't like that store breads have like 20+ ingredients) So I researched for a relatively inexpensive breadmaker to try it out. I have only used it 5 times, but wow, I am thoroughly impressed. I was a little overwhelmed with the comments of users and my research that said how important it was to have exact measurements, some people claiming to use a scale instead of measuring cups to get exact numbers, and how a little more or less: sugar, salt, yeast could cause terrible consequences, etc, etc. I am not here to judge bread experts, since I am a complete novice, but in my 5 loaf experience, I have found the statements above to be false. By mistake I added 1/4 of a teaspoon more to a recipe (active dry yeast and instant yeast have a 1.25 conversion rate according to most sites) and the bread came out just fine. On another bread I added a about 1/3 of a cup more liquid (pineapple juice for a very good pineapple bread) and it came out just fine. Oh, I also tried a glutten free bread for a recipe that wasn't for a breadmaker, and the bread came out fine still. Sure it wasn't a perfect rectangle/square, it looked rustic and was as fluffy as any glutten-free bread I've ever tried. In general, I love the ease of use, and don't let bread experts scare you away with those pesky exact measurements. Just try to keep it within what the recipes call for, but you don't have to use any fancy scales or worry about an extra gram of salt falling in the pan. The machine talks about a precise order of ingredients - this too does not matter at all if you're making the bread right away. Feel free to put the yeast first with the liquid, in fact you can let it "activate" even if its instant if you want, then add the flour, or add the flour first and then the liquid - again none of this matters at all. However, it could be a good practice to do the liquid->dry->yeast order for when you want to use the time delay feature - its only important then. Also, did I mention this product is super easy to clean? The convenience is simply great. The only negative thing I can say about this machine is that the LCD is of very poor quality, and you can barely read it under a bright kitchen light. A few more notes: - Using a kill-a-watt to test it, the machine uses between 3 and 6 cents of electricity in the "basic setting" in almost 3 hours, depending on peak hours and settings. So - Whole Wheat bread flour is awesome - makes incredibly fluffy bread! (Even my local supermarket carried it - WINCO for those in the northwest) So what did a complete novice bake successfully? - The super cheap but good white bread. (costs about $0.38 cents to make a 1.5lb loaf, including electricity. Even cheaper if you used all purpose flour, but I have liked my results with bread flour so I'll be sticking with it - specially the whole wheat one). White bread flour, water, a little salt, yeast. Used the basic setting, and medium crust color. - Pineapple bread (I decided to add half a cup of pineapple in addition to what the recipe specified, and it turn out just fine). Whole wheat bread flour, sugar, pineapple juice, butter, 1 egg, yeast. This one was about 1.10 or so to make (most of the cost from the pineapple for the juice and fruit, fruit is expensive :/. But you can easily make this with just pineapple juice and that would take the cost down to like 75 cents per 1.5lb loaf. - Glutten free bread (glutten free bread mixture, soy milk, salt, sugar, yeast, 1/2 cup of eggs (2 full eggs, 2 egg whites) - (update) Banana bread (it was gone in less than 24 hours, and it was made with brown sugar and whole wheat bread flour on the "cake" setting on the machine) - (update) Whole wheat honey bread - really good and filling. All 5 turned out really good. I cannot say enough good things about the whole wheat bread flour. You can easily substitute it 1:1 in any recipe that calls for flour/white bread flour/all purpose flour. Well, I cannot say that with certainty, but I did substitute it 1:1 after doing some research and the result was just fine in all 3 loaves I tried that on. Conclusion: even a novice can make great fresh bread. Note: I will update this as I make more loafs. But so far, despite the poor LCD, this is a great investment of $50 dollars. (as of February 2012) Updated on 2/20/12 with more recipes.
Review: Great breadmaker, even for 1 lb loafs - I read some online reviews about this breadmaker being a best value an have to agree it is. I got this from desertcart for less that $45 about a month ago and it was an extraordinary deal. It does just about everything more expensive breadmakers do, and makes excellent bread. It has settings for most every option, but only 1.5 and 2 lb size loafs. However, I regularly use the 1.5 lb size on the light crust setting to bake 1 lb loafs without any problems. Any 1.5 lb recipe can be modified to 1 lb simply by using 2/3 the ingredients (there are conversion tables on the internet for tbsp to tsp, etc.). I had looked at some expensive 1 lb bread machines and saw reviews complaining that there weren't many 1 lb recipes available (I guess these people didn't realize there aren't special ingredients for 1 lb loafs and you just convert 1.5 or 2 lb recipes). My favorite so far is the King Arthur Flour bread machine white bread recipe. I did a bit of internet research on this model and it appears that it is sold in a number of other countries under different names. Two I saw mentioned were Brazil and the UK. It is probably made by some Chinese company and Sunbeam simply buys and re-brands it for sale in the US. This machine is not perfect though and is a lower end model, but these issues are minor considering it is such a low price. The instructions are rather sparse, leaving out some key facts. One is the beeping that occurs about 20 minutes into the cycle signals when to add fruit and nuts to the dough, if you want. Another is explaining what the wire hook included is for, which is to remove the paddle from the loaf if it happens to get stuck in there. The third issue is that there are very few recipes that come with the machine, but getting a book of recipes is not why you are buying a low cost bread maker. You don't buy other kitchen appliances for the recipes, and bread is not a unique food. You can make any bread recipe in the machine, and the best thing to do is search the internet for some. There are loads of them out there for free, most tailored for 1.5 or 2 lb loaf machines, as well as some books you can buy. My last issue is that the bread pan is rather thin, thinner than the top of the line breadmakers. This causes the bread to get a thicker crust when baking. If thicker crust is an issue for you, you may want to look at the high priced breadmakers which have thicker pans, since lower priced models seem to have the thin style. Also, take the bread out of the machine as soon as it is done baking, leaving it in longer will make the crust harder. A helpful tip I read elsewhere is to put some cooking oil on the post you place the paddle on in the pan. This keeps the paddle from getting stuck to the pan. However, if it does get stuck, simply put enough water in the pan to cover the paddle, soak for 15 minutes, and then hold the gear underneath the pan firm and you should be able to pull the paddle off. Holding the gear under the pan while pulling makes removing a stuck paddle much easier. I don't know how long the Sunbeam will last, but overall an excellent value for the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What can I do about my Sunbeam Bread Machine? It will not make a decent loaf of bread. They don't rise. Fresh yeast used. Probably can't return it now**
A: We have had ours for several years. We get 25 lb bags of bread flour at Sams Club. Bread turns out wonderful. We use the express loaf setting always. I have used small bags of pilsbury bread flour with poor results. Yes the flour and yeast can make a big difference. Also put in the warm/hot water and the salt, oil,sugar in first then flour and yeast last. In 58 min you have a delicious tall loaf.

**Q: what are the 12 cycles ?**
A: You are probably referring to the 12 settings, not cycles. You can look at them and answer most of your questions by looking at the manual here- http://ec1.images-amazon.com/media/i3d/01/A/man-migrate/MANUAL000063299.pdf This is a great machine for the money. I'm on my second one now only because it was about as cheap to buy a new one as to buy a new basket. I had damaged the seals on the bottom by forcing the paddle loose rather than simply letting it soak- my fault. No, I don't work for Sunbeam, I just like my machine.

**Q: Can I use this machine to make gluten-free bread?**
A: Yes. I have been making GF bread for several months now, using a recipe from Bette Hagman's "The Gluten Free Gourmet" © 1990. It turns out so well I haven't tried another recipe! In a subsequent book, "More From the Gluten Free Gourmet," Ms. Hagman includes a discussion of useful attributes for a breadmaker, the main requirement being a strong blade, which this Sunbeam has. There are a dozen specially created recipes. Both books were revised in 2000.

**Q: Does anyone know where I can buy a pan for the 5891 model?   Mine leaks.  Love the breadmaker.**
A: The pans are the weak link of this machine. Do a google search. Last year I found a nice company in the Midwest that supplies all sorts of appliance parts at reasonable prices, including this pan.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very decent quality, works well, good capacity for counter space
*by S***A on January 10, 2014*

This is a bread machine. That's not high praise, but it is indeed praise as many similar items I've used in the past could be called so many worse things ranging from 'tiny broken washing machine' to 'garbage' all the way up to 'expensive garbage.' This, however, is exactly what it claims to be and works as well as you'd expect. It does what it says on the tin. It is of mid-range capacity and if left to its own devices (i.e. you put ingredients in the pan and press the White Bread button) it makes perfectly acceptable sandwich bread (In a sort of crazy rectangular block with a stirrer-sized shape missing from the 'bottom' of the loaf) But no one should be using these machines in this fashion. Instead, bread machines should primarily be used as a dough-kneader so that you can concentrate on whatever else you're doing for prep and when the machine is done you let the dough rise / settle / punch down, whatever it is the recipe calls for after kneading. As a side benefit, you can set them on a timer to make you fresh bread when you wake up (that sort of thing) or use the built-in oven to mix jams (something these are also fairly good at.) So I'll review it in that vein, as a dough-kneader. This is a GREAT dough-kneader and I've used it to make delicate breads like French Loaf, Baguettes and even croissants with excellent results but I've also used it to mix up Pumpernickel and other hearty wheat breads (some so thick I hear the motor straining a little) and the machine has trucked through them without issue. But another result of this power is that the stirring mechanism no longer fits tightly to the post on which it rests at the base of the mixing basin. It has not deformed, overall, however and still kneads the bread fine. It has not slipped or stripped - it just removes easily. The stirring mechanism and the entirety of the inside mixing basin is coated in Teflon so cleanup is exceptionally easy. Do not soak the entire basin in water as the mechanism traveling through the base of the basin has been greased by the factory and sealed. Simply fill with water from the top, agitate, pour out, wipe down with a dish mop / paper towel. Easy. It is an odd shape though its overall footprint is not demanding on your countertop. It's unwieldy, rather than large. Be creative and find a place where its odd shape fits. Move other rectangular objects (which can stack together easily) elsewhere so this can have that one odd corner into which it will stay nicely out of the way. You can store it away, of course, if you don't make bread all the time as I do but you'll find it takes up the same odd space in a cabinet so good luck with that. Bread makers are a dime-a-dozen in the availability of various styles and brands but they are not literally 12 for 10 cents in actual cost so it's very possible to waste time and money by buying the wrong one. Know then that this one is a simply solid performer which is worth the amount on the tag, as so few things are.
