5 out of 5 stars Bakes great bread!   July 15, 2008

I love this breadmaker! I am a novice at breadmaking, and this machine produces lovely bread and also lovely dough. It makes me feel like a pro. I love it!

On the first attempt to use this product smoke started coming out of the vents and the paddles stopped mixing the bread. I ended up with a lovely baked pile of dried flour with mush at the bottom. The machine was then completely dead. I have read about this prouct on consumer reports websites and everyone listed the same problems. It is immorral for this company to have not already issued a recall, and to continue to sell this faulty product. I'm sure it is also a fire hazard.

Black & Decker All-in-One Automatic Bread MakerI used my old Black & Decker breadmaker for years and never had a problem, unfortunately it died. I bought the Model B2300 several months ago and I absolutely hate it. First, the settings are difficult to figure out, second it burns every loaf on the outside and the inside is doughy, inedible. Second, there are no recipes in the book that I really care to make and it won't successfully make the recipes from my old book.
Third, who wants to make jam in their bread maker, ugh. I am so sorry I bought this machine and I wish I had my old bread maker back. Go back to selling the old machines Black and Decker, this new one is ruining what I previously thought was your good name. I might add that I am not a novice cook and have made my own bread for years. With increasing arthritus in my hands making this painful to do, I thought this supposedly new, up-to-the-minute machine would be a godsend. Not so much.
Colour me disappointed in the extreme.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent machine with great results...   November 20, 2007

I have owned and used several bread makers in the past, but I was attracted to this machine for several reasons. (1) Good past experience with Black and Decker Bread Makers, (2) it uses a horizontal pan verses the older style vertical ones, (3) has the ability for large loaves (upto 3lbs).

I have not been disappointed in any means. I was actually suprised by some of the other reviews because my experience has been so positive. It is so easy to use and every loaf that I have made in this machine has come out awesome. I know that it is not just my own opinion on this--I have actually had a friend and my mother go out and buy this same model after seeing the results that I have had. To me this says a lot, especially with my mother already having another bread maker at home that she didn't need to replace yet.

This Black and Decker model has lots of various settings for all types of breads. Very easy to use and clean. Definitely buy this model --after doing my research I concluded that this is the best model currently out on the market.



1 out of 5 stars Burns the bread, impossible to clean, lousy customer service   September 19, 2007

I bought this machine (a B2300) to replace an aging B&D B2005 that I knew was on its last legs. It sounded good as it is a dual paddle machine and could make a 3lb loaf.

I could not find any settings where it would not burn the bread, not only that but recipes that I had used for years simply turned out horrible grainy textured bread. I think this is partly because its cycles are too short, and partly because it cooks the bread at too high a temperature.

Unlike the B2005, the lid does not come off for cleaning so if you get a loaf that rises too much and sticks to the inside of the lid then it is almost impossible to clean the lid.

Because of these problems I called Applica and asked for a replacement under their warranty program. They sent me a completely different model (the smaller and cheaper B2250) as a replacement with no explanation as to why. When I called them about this I was told they considered the two bread makers of 'equal value' and that they had fulfilled the warranty.

Sadly the new, smaller machine is no better - it also burns the bread and its lid cannot be removed for cleaning.

I am still using my old B2005 but when it dies then I will be looking for a new bread maker that is not branded Black and Decker.
