I got my 1st bread machine way back when they 1st came out & used it happily all the time, it was a great tool for me as a single man & then...
After going wheat-free it was given away.
More recently we got into wheat-free bread making & found it works out great with our newer bread maker that has a gluten-free program.
The bread maker is very, very appreciated for the goodness it brings us.
As to EVs...that is a 'revolution' I'll be delighted to miss altogether, thanks.
