This is our second bread maker. The first BBA was a unit of ALDI. After only one year (2 times a week bread baked) was this in the end. Spare parts were not getting. Since we already have a raclette machine Fa. Unold and knew their good quality, we decided at the BBA again for the Fa. Unold. The choice fell on the unit Backmeister from the ONYX series because it fits well with the stainless steel trim to our kitchen equipment. Another plus is the ability for the firm. Unold at any time, even after the warranty period (by phone, in writing, by email) to get spare parts for these machines. The machine has a dough hook. As we need bread to 1000g and 1350g prior to actually getting was too great, told us about the size of the device. He thereby takes away even less space in the kitchen. Who needs more bread, should take up a larger unit. The dough hook is perfectly adequate for the baking pan and kneading creates his perfect. He also is very quiet to work and astonished us very much. The ALDI-BBA was at least 3 times as loud. For the basic program with darker browning and size of 750g it needs 3 hours. Thanks to the Quantanium coating baking dish can be the finished bread quite easily seen (at ALDI machines this was the most difficult part). Positive us mitglieferte manual noticed. With many tips and tricks, even for beginners, and a lot of recipes. Even stollen (recipe in the manual) you can let knead at least in the BAA. We have our choice no regrets with the Uunold 8695 and these would meet again. CAUTION: When baking the stainless steel cover is hot!
