Pros and cons

According to our bread maker expert

Has a special program for making gluten-free recipes.
With the quick program, you can bake fresh bread within 60 minutes.
The stainless steel casing can get warm while baking.

Description

The Kenwood BM450 has an automatic feed with which the bread maker automatically adds extra ingredients to the bread mix; that's useful, because you won't have to worry about it anymore. You can put nuts, raisins, or olives into a separate container in the bread maker beforehand, so that they can be added at the right time. This bread maker has 14 programs with which you can make cake, jam, and pizza dough, but it's also suitable for gluten-free recipes. Choose the desired size of your bread and adjust the crust color to make bread exactly the way you like it. You can prepare fresh bread at any time of day thanks to the 15-hour timer function, and the keep warm function keeps the bread nice and crunchy.

real beast

nice design
Quiet
Easy to operate

My wife had been whining for a bread maker for weeks. I'm sure she's only going to use it twice like the food processor. But come on, to get rid of the nagging, I surfed to the Coolblue website. We quickly found this Kenwood through the handy decision aid. Of course it was delivered the next day. The device has a beautiful design, a nice sleek stainless steel housing and a black glass control panel with touch buttons. My wife is one of those girls who speaks English all the time and she opened the Coolblue box with an Oh My God. She wanted to test the machine immediately but was too lazy to go to the store, so she used yeast that had already expired two years ago. Of course, the flower had also expired since 2014, but there were no bugs in it yet, she said. Miraculously, the Kenwood quietly made a perfect-looking white sandwich in under three hours. Except for the smell, at least. The bread smelled strongly of yeast and I did not eat it. My wife, stubborn as she is, insisted it was tasty. We threw the rest of the bread out for the birds. All the birds in the neighborhood now have diarrhea. The next day I bought myself a bread mix with sunflower seeds. After all, the troela couldn't do anything wrong with that. With the timer function, the sandwich was ready in the morning at the set time. This time it was a success. The bread is very light and the crust color is perfect. I'm already looking forward to the next bake. The machine is very easy to clean. Almost no residue remains. The only downside is the small hole at the bottom of the bread. This Kenwood is a real beast. This review is based on true events.

Nice product, but too expensive and broke way too quickly

Beautiful design
Broken within 2.5 years

In the beginning I was able to make good use of the bread machine. However, after a few months, the dispenser for adding the nuts/seeds stopped working, solved by Coolblue, but in fact the device continued to falter with regard to the dispenser (which would actually be the biggest plus of this Kenwood) . However, the mixing arm in the can is really super large compared to other brands, so what you get is because of 30% of your sandwiches a part is missing where the mixing arm has been during the baking program. In addition, the non-stick coating of the baking tin was quickly released, which did not look free and meant that I had to let the tin cool down before the bread could be removed instead of knocking the bread directly from the baking tin. Finally, the mixing arm has failed after 2.5 years because the rotating part that is attached to the can has come loose. As a result, the tin leaks when you put ingredients in it, which leaks into the device, which increases the risk of fire, etc. I can no longer use the product after 2.5 years. Very honestly, go for a different product if you want to use a nice product for a long time. In terms of price it is top end, then you can expect a bit more I would say

Great machine and beautiful too!

good results
many programs
nice design
recipe booklet only on CD

This bread oven is both convenient to use and very beautiful in the kitchen. The operation is clear, there are certainly more than enough programs and the results are very good. You can light a light in the machine while working, which makes it very easy to see how the dough looks.

Compared to my earlier (cheaper) bread maker, this machine kneads the dough much better and the bread is also tastier. I also think it's a pretty quiet machine. I think it's great that you can program 5 programs yourself. I can't say anything about durability yet, because I just got it.

Another plus is that you can make small loaves of 500g, something that many other machines can't do.

However, it would have been nice if the recipe booklet would also have been printed with the device, instead of just on CD. They probably did this because it needs to be available in so many different languages.

Highly recommended!
