~~ SMELL LIKE A BAKERY WITH THE SUNBEAM 5891 BREAD MAKER ~~
Nobody who knows me would ever accuse me of being Martha Stewart. Much more like Stuart Little, always getting something knocked over, spilled or ruined. That is me trying to bake bread in bread loaf pans, from scratch, just my mom and grandma before me...

Pros:
Quick, easy to use, easy to clean, price
Cons:
It broke, have no idea why
Bottom Line:
It broke after about six months of use, but it is a great starter machine for the clueless.

Exceptional Value, Good machine
I've had my 5891 about three weeks. My wife and I were going to consider getting one for Christmas, but when we discovered that Amazon would deliver one for a total price of less than $40, we decided not to wait. This is bread machine number four for...

Pros:
Works very well and was an excellent value. Much better than expected.
Cons:
Recipe book is sub-par.
Bottom Line:
You can pay lots more for a fancy machine, but unless you are a pro and need a complex machine, you won't find a better value!

Nice for the price
I bought this about a year ago and make about 3-4 loaves a week. It had some wobble issues on my unlevel counter but a piece of cardboard fixed that right up. This really is a good machine for the money. I would recommend it to anyone who likes fresh...

Pros:
Cheap. Long lasting. Selectable loaf size and color.
Cons:
Instruction book could be better but with the internet you can get past that.
Bottom Line:
Buy this if you want a cheap bread maker that will last. Mine has proven its worth over and over.

Sunbeam 5891
The Sunbeam 5891 has a weak motor that kneads the bread far less effectively than two other breadmakers I have used. I had a Sears Kenmore private labeled breadmaker that was very similar to the present Breadman TR2500 for 4 years, making 1-2 loaves a...

Pros:
Inexpensive. OK for gift when you think the recipient will not use it much.
Cons:
Unacceptably weak kneading process.
Bottom Line:
If you really want to make bread, find one that kneads better.

Breadman TR2500BC dead, Sunbeam 5891 replacement
My Breadman TR2500BC died read that report for more information. Replaced it today with the Sunbeam 5891. Ok it is simple to use, no user defined menus, book sucks big time. Doesn't give times of cycles except basic one only. So if you want to...

Pros:
Made a real good loaf of bread first use. Simple controls, it works (No Frills)
Cons:
No back lighted screen, very poor manual, non-programmable, no pause mode
Bottom Line:
Does what you want, makes bread, does that well.
Simple no frills operation.
User manual stinks. Use some else's for recipes.
Remember Measure correctly.
