Product Information

There are many different bread makers on the market, but not all are created equally, so you want to make sure you're splashing the cash on something that will actually make your life easier. To help, we consulted with our discerning army of Mumsnet users to find out which gadgets they've tried, tested and loved after extensive use. After all, who better to give their verdict on the top bread makers than the real parents who have put them through their paces with the wear and tear of family life? Are you a Bake-Off contestant in waiting? You really don’t need to be a budding bread maker to create the perfect loaf. There’s little room for error with an automatic bread maker. You may not be able to get to your bread as soon as it has finished baking and so the designers at Russell Hobbs have included an automatic keep warm function that will automatically keep your bread warm for 1 hour after the breadmaker has finished baking. Sarah rated the Russell Hobbs 23620 as very easy to set up. Her first impressions were that the bread maker was "amazing. [I was] very impressed and wished I had bought one sooner."

This nifty little breadmaker hasn’t left anything to chance and even features a crust control function allows you to select from 3 settings of how dark you would like your crust. As for the results it produces, Sarah was a big fan: "Amazing quality and very tasty. The quality of the loaf it produces is exceptional; it looks super impressive and smells so good, even as it is cooking." She also described the taste as "superb". We consulted with our Voices panel to find out more about the bread makers Mumsnetters love. After all, if anyone can give honest advice on the best gadgets that really work for family life, it's the parents who have tested these products through vigorous, long-term use. To ensure you have the versatility to bake up your favourite type of loaf the Russell Hobbs Compact Breadmaker has 12 programmable functions. With options from gluten free, french, whole-wheat, cake and many more!

Anyone who’s sampled the good stuff (by which we mean we mean home-baked bread) from the comfort of their own home knows the answer to this question. OK, it’s not one of life’s essentials, but it’s a definitely a bonus in the kitchen. You don't need to be a serious home baker, because a bread making machine will make fresh loaves — and plenty more, in fact — with just the touch of a button. What can a bread maker make? It’s little wonder that these machines have seen a rise in popularity (call it self-raising, if you like). It makes a lot of sense when you consider just how good homemade bread actually tastes. We don't know who needs to hear this, but shop-bought and homemade bread are not the same. A freshly baked loaf is a thing of beauty, and deserves to be celebrated. It's the star of the show, not the side. More manuals of Bread Makers Frequently Asked Questions about Russell Hobbs 23620 Compact Bread Maker
