NeretvaBread Maker, 20-IN-1 2LB Bread Machine Dual Heater Bread Maker Machine Automatic with Nonstick Ceramic Pan, 15H Timer & 1H Keep Warm Set, Low Noise, Stainless Steel Breadmaker Recipe-Green

The media could not be loaded. I’ve had this Neretva bread machine for about two years now, and it’s consistently lived up to its promises. The build quality is solid, and I appreciate the all-metal exterior and nonstick ceramic pan—super easy to clean and feels healthier than some other options with chemical coatings.There is a bit of a learning curve at first, especially when it comes to the order you add ingredients (liquids first, then dry, yeast last), but once you get the hang of it, it’s very straightforward to use. I’ve tried several of the preset programs—basic, whole wheat, sweet bread—and they’ve all turned out well. The dual heaters really do bake the bread evenly, and the crust color options give a nice level of control.The delay timer is a great feature if you want to wake up or come home to fresh bread, and I haven’t had any issues with noise—it’s surprisingly quiet during operation. I also like the included accessories and the clear instructions.If you’re looking for a reliable, versatile bread machine that doesn’t feel cheap, this one is a great choice. It’s held up great over time, and I’m still discovering new ways to use it!

I absolutely love my Neretva Bread Maker—not only does it work flawlessly, but the color options make it a stylish addition to my kitchen! I chose the pastel green, and it adds such a fun, retro vibe to my countertop. But the real magic happened the first time I used it for an overnight bake—I woke up to the incredible aroma of fresh bread filling my home, and it was like stepping into a bakery! The settings are easy to navigate, and the bread comes out perfectly golden with a soft, fluffy texture inside. If you’re looking for a bread maker that’s both aesthetically pleasing and delivers amazing homemade bread, this one is a must-have!

After using the Neretva bread machine for a little over a month, I can say I love it and I recommend it. My only caution is that immediately after the baking finishes, if you want to turn off the warmer, you have to hold down the button rather than just pushing it. That button is rather warm, so I use a hot pad or a wash cloth. It doesn't burn your finger without using something, but it's not comfortable for me.Other than that minor thing, I love this little machine. It says it will bake 1.5 or 2 pound loaves, but I have successfully made 1 pound loaves in it. I set it for the 1.5 (750 gram) loaf size, and my 1 pound loaves come out great. I really like having the dual heating elements. I think that helps bake the bread evenly in the tall container.I got the silver stainless steel, and it looks great in my small kitchen sitting on the countertop. It's not huge, so it is a machine I can leave out, and it's not in my way.Many people think they won't have time to bake bread even in a machine, but this could not be further from the truth. It's much easier than you think. You just measure out your ingredients, put them in the loaf pan in the order recommended, set your settings, turn on the machine, and walk away. Three hours later you have a nice loaf of bread that slides out of the pan very easily.A great companion to this machine - or any machine - is the The No-Fuss Bread Machine Cookbook: Hands-Off Recipes for Perfect Homemade Bread by Michelle Anderson. Her book gives ingredient measurements for 1 pound, 1.5 pound, and 2 pound loaves. It really is a "No-Fuss" cookbook. It's well worth the price to get this book, as the Neretva manual is not very detailed. The one pound recipes in the No-Fuss cookbook are the ones I use in my Neretva.I highly recommend this machine! If something ever happens to it, I will buy another one to replace it immediately. I'll never be without a bread machine again!

I like this machine It is very easy to clean, takes not much counter space, and It seems to cook well, I think, but I can't be sure until I try a few more recipes other than the ones included with the machine. , I do have to complain a little about the instruction/recipe book. The instruction book gives no recipe for anything like banana bread, and doesn't say anywhere what setting to use if making banana/zuchinni/etc. bread. I've tried two different setting now (banana and zuchinni bread) and neither cooked through without adding an hour of time. The French bread recipe, which I made, was very unlike any french bread I've ever had before. Basically it was just a loaf of plain, dense, white bread that had a soft crust. And please manufacturer, what the heck is "toast dough", or "dessert"? I couldn't tell from the recipes and there was zero explanation. And my even bigger question, what is DRIED MEAT FLOSS??? I'm stumped onthat one too. Meat floss? Yikes. Oh yeah, there is a setting called ferment, which is basically just for thawing store-bought frozed dough. Really? If I was doing that, why would I pay this much for a bread machine? There are a very minimum number of recipes, and for the most part they look to be pretty useless. The instruction book doesn't say what temp that the cake setting heats at, so I don't know how to adjust for a different cake recipe.... But, all that aside, I think that the machine is going to work great once I fine tune a few things in what settings I need to use. This is my 4th bread machine over the years. I wore out all my other ones, so I am not a novice at this, but I wish I could go back to one of those older machines I had that didn't the excessive number of settings that I really don't want or need.

Love the color! Easy to use and quite an adventure! The bread was ok. My only complaint is the user manual, which is pretty useless. It barely explains how to operate it and, other than a chart of times, has nothing at all about how long to cook, etc.
