I found an older model of the Breadman, brand new, at a thrift store. I've used it a couple times now and love the ease of having fresh homemade bread. It came with a manual with recipes, you can use ready made bread mixes and just bake, you can make pasta dough and you can even make jams. I cannot wait to make some jam! My house is smelling so good and now I need to up my workouts because I love bread!
