Breadman TR8752-Pound Breadmaker, Stainless Steel


Breadman TR8752-Pound Breadmaker, Stainless Steel
The Breadman TR8752-Pound Breadmaker is one of the most popular on the market today. I have done some research on the machine and have found some favorable reviews as well as some not so good. I will post 2 consumer reviews for this machine.

We've had it for a month now and my hubby eats more bread now than ever before. We eat whole grains that we grind ourselves. The bread comes out wonderful. I bought the first Breadman that was on the market and made many loaves of bread for my family through the years. It gave up the ghost about two years ago but I didn't get another one because the kids were all grown and gone and I figured I would just buy bread for the two of us. Well after almost two years of eating crappy store bought bread, I noticed we weren't eating much bread at all. It would go stale and end up as bread crumbs. We are getting older and need our fiber, so I bought a new machine and stuck with the brand I knew. I'm so glad I did.

This one is much nicer and more user friendly. It is louder than the old one but we don't seem to mind. I think the hubby likes the noise because he knows a fresh loaf in on the way. I use the dough cycle often to make dinner rolls, bagels, soft pretzels and pizza dough. I couldn't be happier.

I used to own the Breadman Ultimate Breadmaker (TR4000) and it was perfect, except it was loud. I sent it back to Salton and they were going to replace it, but ran out. So they sent me a check for my purchase price and I immediately went out and bought this model as it has great reviews everywhere. So far I've made probably 10 or so loaves from recipes in the book it came with, my old TR4000 book, and the Bread Machine Cookbook by Beth Hensperger and every single loaf comes out with pockets of flour around the outside and the top middle completely sunken. I never had this issue before with the TR4000 and am so disappointed that I ever sent Salton back my TR4000.

In conclusion It is my opinion that this machine is popular because of the price value. It seems to be capable of doing it's job but leaves customers wanting more. The general rating on this product is a 3 out of 5
