Title: Problems Baking and Paddles Flaking
Product review: We purchased our Zojirushi 2-pound Bread Machine from Amazon in April 2011, a little over 1 1/2 years ago.For reference, we have been baking bread at least weekly since the 1970s. We grew up on the Tassajara Bread Book and still make a more complex version of their standard recipe.Pros:- quiet- mixes and rises extremely well- cooks the sides and bottom of a loaf very nicely - crunchy, solid sides and bottom almost as if cooked in an ovenCons- does not cook the top of a loaf. After several attempts, I called customer service and, after sending a photo, was told my under-cooked top was "normal". When I make a complex, multi-grain recipe, the upper portion of the loaf was undercooked, almost raw.- the "paddles" that mix and knead the loaf have a non-stick coating that is now peeling off into my bread. Calling customer service, I was told to order another set of paddles from the Zojirushi website for $16.Lee
