 Excellent gift January 3, 2009
M. Rodriguez
I was given this bread machine as a birthday gift a few months ago and so far, no complaints!! The machine is used consistently (once a week) and performance has always been perfect when following the recipes included with the bread maker. Our favorite is the "sandwich" loaf. Non-sunbeam recipes have turned out well too, especially pizza dough. I would recommend this machine, it was the best birthday gift!
Pretty Good, I guess. December 30, 2008

I have used the Sunbeam 5891 several times and am somewhat satisfied with it. It's kinda noisy and vibrates much more than I like, but the bread comes out well. The crust is a little crispy at first, even on the light setting, but softens over a little time (usually the next day) which is how I like my crust.
Not my first choice in a bread machine, but for the price, I consider it a fair bargain.
Excellent entry level breadmaker but plan on replacing it soon December 29, 2008

With the cost of bread going through the roof I thought I'd investigate making my own bread. I chose this bread maker because it's very cheap and gets good reviews. I've never owned one before and I'm not a baker.
I started with a bread mix from the local grocery store. Not much cheaper than buying the bread but a good way to start. When I turned the machine on it was obvious there was something wrong with it. There was a dreadful sound everytime the dough hook turned as if something was slipping inside. The bread came out very well but I had to return the machine to the store to get a new one. Lost half a star right there.
I then tried a loaf using bulk ingredients. Much, much cheaper that way but still very easy. Just chuck the wet ingredients in, then the dry, and finally add the yeast into a hole you poke into the flour. Set the bake type (nearly always basic), chose the darkness and loaf size (1.5 or 2lbs) and hit the on button. Three hours later you have bread.
There are a couple of dough types the breadmaker struggles with - I can hear the motor groaning to turn the hook. I doubt I'll get more than 20-30 loaves out of this machine before it, too, dies. However the important thing is that I know I enjoy making bread and when it does die I'll happily spend $100 or so on a better machine.
The bread that comes out is fantastic (but it doesn't poke out the top like in the picture, thank goodness). The machine is very easy to clean although I do have to soak the loaf tin in water overnight to get the dough hook off. It comes with a weird hook thing that I assume is to pull the dough hook off with but it doesn't work.
The book that comes with it is minimal and only has a sample recipe for each of the 12 or so bake settings. I purchased an extra book for recipies but, quite honestly, they're all kind of intimidating. Great if you want to bake bread in the shape of a swan but not what I'm looking for. When I want something, say raisin bread, I just go to the Internet for recipies. They've all been good so far.
One feature that is missing is a beeper to indicate that the first kneading is over and you can add extra ingredients such as raisins, cheese etc. Not really a big deal, I just listen for the kneading sound to finish.
And yes - I'm saving a ton of money, especially now I'm buying my ingredients in bulk. And, again, the bread is better than any 'artisan' bread from the supermarket bakery.
Great Breadmaker December 22, 2008

I got this for my sister & she loved it. I never personally used it (not the cook in the family), but she was very pleased & she didn't pass out that kind of comment lightly, so it must've done a really good job...she passed away before getting to "wear the new off of it", but was thrilled w/ it.
Can't be beat for the Price December 16, 2008

This bread maker is great easy to use makes wonderful bread.Recipes are not abundant but are very simple and easy,I haven't tried my other recipes yet but am looking forward to see if they turn out as well.It is a little larger than I would like because I have limited counter space but the bread has made it all worth it.I haven't used any other machines to compare to but for the money I don't think you could do much better.
