(+) The best bread you will ever taste, on a timer just ready in time for breakfast. (-) If you can't wait since it smells so good... you might burn your fingers like me!
Advantages: Price, size and ease of use. Disadvantages: Recipes aren't very successful

I have had my Kenwood breadmaker for about 4 months and I have to say that I have been very pleased with it.
I had looked at the more expensive breadmakers but decided on the Kenwood as I have other Kenwood products which Im very happy with.
To start with it's a good size, not too big and doesn't take up a lot of room on my work surface.
It's very easy to use, particularly the timer which I use a lot as I like to bake during the night using off peak electricity.
Initially I used the recipes provided with the machine but was disappointed. So I bought a breadmaker recipe book and I've been delighted with all of the results. From the basic white and wholemeal to the flavoured breads and rolls they have all been a great success.
There are two metal clips which hold the baking pan in place and I found these quite tight at first but they have gradually slackened off with use.
Overall I think the Kenwood BM250 is very good value for money and I would recommend it as long as you don't use the recipes provided.

Quick review of Kenwood BM250
I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.
I bought a BM250 in Jan 2008. The electronic programmer failed in October 2008 and ,as instructed, I took the breadmaker to the nearest Kenwood approved repairer on November 14. Despite repeated phone calls I am still waiting for the machine to be repaired 12 weeks later.
The Kenwood customer care centre take upto 45 minutes to contact and I have now given up and bought another breadmaker.
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT IF YOU ENJOY HOMEMADE BREAD. ...
