I have one and almost got rid of it. Whenever I made bread, and I followed the directions exactly, the bread came out heavy. Instead of tossing it I bought a bread machine recipe book. I've made a few loaves and so far they've been much better than the recipes that came with the machine. I haven't loved any of the loaves yet so I don't even have a recipe to share. I do what to try a few different recipes to see how those come out. That is if I can ever remember to do it!
