My old Breville BB 400 gave up after about 20 or 30 years so I bought this as a replacement, I'm very happy with it, It bakes bread very well and has an extra large size loaf. I really like the fold down paddle that leaves a much smaller hole at the base of the bread than the old bread maker. I also tried the jam function but the jam did not set properly. I'm not sure they have the right recipe for the jam. Anyway the bread making is the main reason I bought it and that is going great.
