I logged onto this review page to see if I bought a dud... I too have tried to bake bread every way in this machine since buying it a week ago.. it doesnt rise, it is doughy and each loaf has been thrown out.. what is the issue here.??? i paid $159 should have bought the cheaper brand that my mother in law has and works perfectly

wont work

We have tried every conceivable variable in the bread making process and finally the machine's going in the bin as a total waste of time and money. 8 months and countless attempts. Rang customer service 2 times and no result. Bread doesn't rise, comes out undercooked and still pasty in the middle.

Simply doesn't work.

I've owned a breadmaker before with much success. I haven't managed to bake an edible loaf of bread with my new Sunbeam Bakehouse purchased a month ago. I've tried different brands of bread mix but they are still heavy, undercooked and stodgy. I'm not happy with this breadmaker at all.

This bread maker is excellent, so easy to use and you can wake to freshly cooked bread every morning. Takes less than 5 mins to put on and the machine does the rest, the bread comes out perfect every time. Pizza dough is the great too! So easy!! It is not time consuming at all to use.
Quality of bread made with machine and how easy it is to make top quality products
Absolutely nothing

I've had a breadmaker for ages and have made all our bread for 16 years. Since i got a Sunbeam Bakehouse My loaves are not risen and appear undercooked. Despite buying new yeast twice and fresh flour and tweaking the recipe - eg less water, more water, oil I have not made a decent loaf. The last one did not rise at all.
Nice looking. Easy to use
Bread falls often over an inch during baking. Bread is usually sticky and undercooked.

The first few loaves came out fantastic however I think there is now a malfunction with the machine as the bread no longer rises. Machine now appears to get too hot during the kneading process which takes hours & that would account for the no rising as it is killing the yeast
Initally the bread was great
only last 1 month till no rising was happening. Customer service refuse to accept it is the machine

I've wanted a breadmaker for ages. I choose the sunbeam bakehouse because its a trusted well known brand. I loved the look of the bakehouse better than the rest too - its perfect on my kitchen bench! 110% happy with its performance, I make on avg 3 loaves each week, the timer setting is a real blessing. Its awesome waking up to the smell of freshly baked bread in the morning. The turbo mode is so simple & quick, & I love the fruit & nut dispenser also. Great recipes ideas too.
Stylish look & excellent performance! Great value!

I purchased this breadmaker from an online retailer because they had a 30% off deal. Quite pleased with it - simple to use and easy to follow instructions. It is not too bulky so can stay on the kitchen bench when not in use. However after the kneading process, the dough can become mishapen or lopsided.
Easy to use, inexpensive
The crust is extremely hard, haven't been able to figure out why. Dough blade usually remains in the bread.

This product is amazing! It is so simple to use, easy to clean and bakes fabulous bread everytime I use it. The Bakehouse is compact in size so it won't take up too much space on your kitchen bench and very light if you want to store it away in the cupboard and only pull it out on a rainy day. The accompanying instruction book is full of fantastic recipes and has easy to follow instructions. It is so easy to make a variety of breads including gluten/yeast free, multigrain, fruit loafs, the list goes on. It has a timer delay so you can prepare it the night before and wake up to freshly baked bread each morning. I couldn't imagine life without it!
Compact size and so easy to use
