throwing a wobbly over a bread maker - suggestions please

We got a Breville Bakers Oven a few years ago for a wedding present and worked fine until loaf #4 when it just stopped working on the kneading bit. today I dragged it out of the cupboard and pulled the darn thing aprt to discover it was just the belt had slipped off the thing so I fixed it and took it for a test run only to have to pull it apart twice more to put the darn belt on. I am going to throw it away.

I am so over it. I want to make my own bread so can anyone suggest a decent bread maker? I don't want to cook bread in the oven if I can help it because we are on bottle gas and I can't be baking for hours every day (we eat a tonne of bread) or if anyone has a great oven cook recipe that won't take forever to bake.

HELP

We have a Sunbeam one from about seven years ago that we use on and off and has never failed us.

Schmickers was it a very expensive one?

My SIL has a sunbeam one and she loves it but she spent quite a bit of money on it also maybe thats what this years tax return can go on :rolleyes:

Don't remember. I think it was under $200.00, though. Can't have been too much, we'd only just moved out of home at the time.
