WHY WE LOVE IT: See the long loaf and rolls pictured above? They represent examples of what we consider the Zo's best use: kneading dough, then taking it out to shape as you please and bake in your oven. The Zo does indeed knead dough more effectively—and with much less user-time and effort—than any other appliance we've tried. There's nothing easier than putting the ingredients into the bucket, pushing "start," and coming back 90 minutes later to thoroughly kneaded, beautifully risen dough. Make pizza, breadsticks, dinner rolls, focaccia, sweet braids—anything you like. And sure, you can bake a loaf in the machine, if you want. But we prefer having a little creative fun and going beyond the standard loaf. Zo makes it simple.

What fun! I've always made bread by hand, very satisfying though it takes time. To try out the bread machine, I used a KAF bread mix, so add water, butter, mix, make a small well in the mix, pour in the yeast, close the lid, and press start. The scent of baking bread, a ping, and a wonderful loaf of bread. Oh, my.

I hesitated to get this bread machine because I remember the first bread machines that came out years ago and did not like the "steamed" quality of the bread. HOWEVER, I am so glad I got the Zo!! It is terriffic! The first 2 loaves that I made I baked in the Zo and they were good (my kids liked them). But my husband and I really like the artisan breads so since then, I have used it for the bread dough function (as recommended by the KAF bakers) almost on a daily basis! And I have to say they are great! It is easy to use and quiet. Right now, I am using it for my sourdough pizza crust! Thanks again KAF, another great recommendation...

I have had the zoji bread machine for years. Love it, I usually use the dough setting and bake 3 smaller loaves in the oven. Also make dough for cinnamon rolls, pizzza crust etc.

Is the Zo perfect? No. Is it nearly so? You bet. This is a tool, and as with any tool, there's a learning curve. In addition, bread baking is a wonderful chemistry experiment...too much or too little of this or that and the whole thing goes blooey. The Zo makes the process a lot easier, but you still need to experiment and tweak--which is part of the fun. I've had my Zo for 3 months now, and am absolutely delighted with it. Have 4-5 favorite recipes, and several others still in the process of being perfected.

I bought two Zo's before Xmas. One for me and one for my daughter. This is the perfect machine -- quiet, easy to use and make great bread. I had a Cuisinart that my husband bought be two years ago that never turned out a decent loaf of bread. I am now making bread every other day as well as rolls during the weekend. I'm sooo glad I bout a Zo!!

I have used other machines but like this one because it has the warm up cycle. All my breads had come out beautifully. I used the added cycle for the first time and it mixed up the way it was suppose to.

I've had my Zojirushi for about a week now and while I am resonably happy with it I have to agree with many of the common complaints i've seen here.
1) Loaf sides are brown but top is very pale or uncooked looking
2) Unless you reshape the loaf by hand it seems to come out lopsided
3) "Add" feature beep is annoying and the stuff you add (nuts, raisins whatever) doesnt seem to get well distributed and can get pretty mutilated.
My question to you; Is it reasonable to expect to get a well sheped, evenly browned loaf of bread by just adding all the ingredients to this machine (using the Zoj recipes) and letting it run on its own to completion (no reshaping, no post-bake browning using the broiler of your oven)?
I've made some nice bread with this machine, but it has required me to do some hands-on work to achieve.
I saw Molly's suggestion of making the blades face the same direction prior to starting. Not sure what that does as the are facing different directions after you pull the bread out. I dont think the two paddles are linked in any way. Is it possible the dough balls are too "stiff"? Is more liquid required? And what about the uneven browning?
But then again I never expected this to be a complete no-brainer. I am especially happy I can open the lid while the machine is operating (I guess engineering locked the lawyers out that day) so you can get in there and reshape the loaf. I also notice that there does not seem to be a pause button which was recommended in some of the bread machine books I've read. so far that has not been a problem. But all in all I like this machine and am having fun learning how to work it and happy with the results.
I would like to see some more comments regarding the top browning issue and the uneven loaf problem.
Generally you will get a better looking, better shaped loaf with a bit slacker dough than with a stiffer dough.It is better to err on the slack side. I always use the light crust setting. Zo has said putting some foil over the window helps the top to brown better.Mary@KAF

I've been using various bread machines for decades, and my previous favorite, a 10+ year old West Bend no longer made, finally gave in when the door hinge broke. The Zojirushi replaced it--and it's simply STELLAR! Every single loaf of bread comes out perfect. I've been using favorite recipes from my previous breadmaker and they're even better when baked in the Zojirushi. (I do find if you don't want the bottom crust to thicken and get a little too tough, you need to take the bread out as soon as it's done rather than leaving it in the "keep warm" mode.) I've made jam in the Zojirushi, used it to make dough for rolls, and done all kinds of things, but my favorite is to simply bake a loaf of incredible homemade bread in it. The bread rises high, is shaped like a store-bought loaf, and comes out tender, flavorful, and just incredibly good. I recommend this as the absolute best bread machine I've ever seen!

I just received my new Zo a couple of weeks ago. As a culinary school graduate and avid baker, I wondered if this machine would be beneficial to me. I love the machine and I will never buy another loaf of grocery store bread again. My kids love the white wheat loaf and the simplicity and versatility are great advantages. Bread machines have come a long way since they were introduced and this truly is the top of the line unit. I would highly recommend this machine to anyone that enjoys bread.

I have been eyeing ther Zo Supreme for 3 years and finally got one for Christmas. I read the manual, watched the instructional video, read a lot of the reviews here, and even emailed a KAF baker with a few questions before using the machine. BTW, the tip to spray the posts and paddles with cooking spray before adding the ingredients is a good one. I had no problems getting the bread out of the machine and away from the paddles. My first loaf of Basic White Bread came out beautifully and looked even better. My family loved the bread. I'm a big fan. Thank you KAF for your offer of a wonderful product and for standing behind it with great customer support.
