Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oster 5838 ExpressBake Breadmaker, White
Customer Review: Great Buy
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this machine for 3.5 years. I like it, i like it a whole lot. One of my favoirte recipies is the French Bread recipie that comes with the machine. If you are looking for a bread machine and don't know where to start, I'd get this one.
My wife makes a lot of different types of breads with it. Its verstile. Sometimes when you bake, the breads don't turn out. This is going to happen and generally means you did something wrong with the yeast. As you get better, the breads get better. I'd imagine people get used to cooking with a certain type of bread machine and so they change their recipie to suit that machine.
Customer Review: Burns bread, even on the light setting.

After first buying a cheap Sunbeam that didn't work at all, I decided to upgrade to the Oster, which I soon discovered was also made by Sunbeam. After burning several loaves of whole wheat bread, I carefully check and timed the cycles (the cycle times are not in the manuel). I discovered that the only difference between white, whole wheat, etc. is the time it rises. All cooking cycles were 60 minutes. That is 20 minutes more than my old machine. Way too long for any type of bread that I know of. Customer Review: Little luck

Heard people rave about bread makers so I bought this model. I think only one attempt came out acceptable. The others failed to rise even though I used different brands of bread mixes and followed the directions.Customer Review: bakes too hot
Summary: 2 Stars
Every loaf we've made with this machine has come out over baked. It just seems to bake at too high a temp.Customer Review: This machine is going back

I have owned two bread machines in the past and both worked excellent. The first one was a small inexpensive machine so I bought an Oster 3 or 4 years ago. It worked great but I finally destroyed 2 paddles and eventually the pan. I just bought an Oster 5838 and for the past week and many attempts, I am taking it back to Kohls. My old recipes don't work, the ones that came with the machine don't work. I have tried new and different brands of bread machine flour and yeast and no luck. I tried adjusting my recipes their recipes and the only ones eating fresh homemade bread are the birds and the squirles in my backyard.
