Test Notes:

This bread machine produced nice sized loaves across the boards with beautiful crust and crowns.  The Limpa-Sweet Rye did have a split in the upper side but it did not affect the size or crust.  It’s easy to program, easy to remove the bread, reasonably priced, and has the shortest bake cycle out of the machines we tested. We highly recommend this model to anyone baking numerous types of breads who doesn’t want to spend a lot of time reading the directions.
