bought this after a previous machine (different make) was faulty and changed to this Panasonic after much research – love it, the bread pan is well made and sturdy. so far have made bread every day, made Jam and baked a cake, its versatile and well made, love it. like the bread mix program, and like the machine overall

I’ve only had it a short while. I had moderate success with bread mixes, but the first attempt at normal white bread produced the best tasting bread I’ve had in a long time. I used Allinson’s bread flour and I’ll stick to that now. Lots more experiments to come but I’m quite impressed.

I bought this bread maker a month ago after seeing its recommendarion by WHICH magazine. Have used a handful of times now and really happy with how easy it is to operate. The nut/seed dispenser works well (it was a bit temperamental on my last machine) and the delay function is very easy to set. Would defo recommend this machine.

Bought this make as a friend already had one. After using a bought bread mix which was a disaster, i have had no problems using raw ingredients. No shop bought bread ever agai

My first loaf looks and tastes exactly as it should. I have had three cheaper bread makers over many years and the only decent ones have been the Panasonic models. I only changed because my previous Panasonic’s pan and paddle has lost their non stick coating – after 15 or more years.
My first loaf with my updated machine is lovely. Great machine, early days but….can’t see why it won’t do another 15+ years…less than 10 a month. Good value.

I am using the bread maker few times a week, children love the bread.
Overall I am happy with the product.
The disappointment was that if I choose setting 2, rapid , the bread is not baked properly, especially the top part. Option 2 was the main reason for which I have opted to by this specific bread maker .

What a great machine! I never thought that we’d be able to have fresh bread baked at home but this machine makes it not only possible but simple to achieve.
We’ve had it about a month now and we’ve made simple white bread and wholemeal loaves as well as sourdough (using a bought mix) and multi grain bread. And it really couldn’t be simpler. Our first effort was a nervy affair but it turned out great and it’s been plain sailing ever since.
I’ve marked it down a star because of the instruction/recipe booklet. The instruction are clear enough but the recipes are rather limited and we ended up buying a bread making book to help us expand our range.
So glad we bought it.

Excellent break maker, it’s quiet enough, very sturdy and selection of programs is more than enough. It’s not smallest one, but it does impressive job. If recipes from attached booklet are followed, result will be perfect every time regardless of what you are making in it. I was a bit concerned about not having a window on top but there is literally zero need for it, trust me.
If nothing else, lack of window makes a bread making experience even more interesting!

Only bad thing about whole purchase is the manual, it’s 15 pages long and that’s with recipes included, paper quality is not good and print will be worn out with time but this detail should not be a deal breaker as same maual can be found online anyway.

If you see one on sale, do NOT hesitate to buy it, you won’t be disappointed.

bought this as panasonic very good. but first attempt was a disaster and was very close to sending back.
instruction manual very poor. i had all ingredients in but couldnt work out how to set up.
At last managed to do it and was a success. Has some one else has said item on work surface and cant read screen think this a very poor desig

I had access to a Panasonic 10 years ago which I loved. Then I moved and bought cheaper versions which for me never reached the same quality. I am very pleased to have returned to the only make that I have ever found to work properly. My new SD-B2510 arrived without a user manual, but there are lots of recipes on line and the format is quite user-friendly. I’ve had it 2 weeks and I already love it, and the wonderful smells it generates.

Highly recommended
I purchased the black, I found a spot on a shelving system in my kitchen as it does take up a lot of space, did not want it on any worktops. It is expensive but it a very good quality product. I used it for the wrights’ bread mix, it was 5, months out of date and the bread still came out excellent and tasted okay, as it was the first time, I had used both. Purchasing bread mix is a quick alternative, as to having flour skimmed milk and yeast, I never add any fats to recipes even if it is on there.

I do not like having soya in the bread that is shop bought, and difficult to find bread without i

This is the second Panasonic bread maker we have purchased, it makes delicious bread and we would highly recommend it to everyone.

Our first Panasonic breadmaker lasted at least ten years without problems although it is worth pointing out that we never use these machines for anything other than making dough and then on average every three days for the past fifteen years. The second one stopped mixing after just under two years but we bought another Panasonic because of the dough programs, the simplicity of operation and they used to be inexpensive!! This third one lasted ten months and Amazon were brilliant in organising a payout under the twelve month warranty.
We decided to stay with Panasonic despite these recent failings and the much higher prices of white goods because when the machines work, they are the excellent.
Two batches already (one of wholemeal and one of white) and it has done all that I required without fuss.
Criticisms include the smaller display on this machine (2510) compared with our last two (both 2500), the less useful orientation of the machine that has the same footprint but is side-on rather than end-on meaning it takes up a greater length on the counter. It is definitely noisier and the bucket seems awkward to fit into its holder. None of this is a big deal but reduces my ratings accordingly.
I hope – I really do hope – that this one lasts a good few years because it was not cheap and the bread consumption in our small household has been homemade only for fifteen years and I don’t want that to change!

So easy to use. Great variation on programmes and produces excellent bread.
Fantastic buy and great value for money.

I have had 4 bread makers and it seems you really do get what you pay for. This is as least w-3 times more than I have paid for a machine before, but the results are 10 times better. The basic white loaf alone is light and fluffy, compared to the s9 much denser loaves I have had in the past. You also get a fruit/nut dispenser which I have never had before. Highly recommended

Fantastic ! Easy peasy to use . Tastes yummy . Even using a bread mix from Tesco ( 85p ) it is excellent ! Just put ingredients in , press required buttons and leave , then eat !

Exceeded expectations on easy of use and results – already recommended it to friends and family

I love this bread maker, so easy to use. Bread tastes gorgeous and rises beautifully. Recommend this machine.
