KBS Pro 710W 2.2LB Bread Maker, Stainless Steel 17-in-1 Smart Bread Machine with Healthy Ceramic Pan, Automatic Nut Dispenser, Tempered Glass Touch Panel, 3 Crust Colors, 15H Timer &Keep-Warm, Recipes

Ok, it’s been about a year now since I decided to buy this particular bread maker, so I can give you my honest perspective on it. Originally, I purchased the bread maker out of concerns that Covid was going to impact my family’s everyday life and of course Covid has done that. I thought bread was going to be scarce for awhile and it was for a short while. And I wasn’t too sure about eating good from restaurants, so I thought the bread maker would be a good idea for making home made pizza. Spin forward a year and I can honestly say that if you are thinking of buying a bread maker, consider buying one for making pizza dough. This machine makes great pizza dough and to date, we’ve made 57 pizza’s with our bread maker. We just put 1-1/3 cups water, 1/4 cup olive oil, 3-1/2 cups I bleached all purpose flour, 1 tbsp sugar, 1-1/2 teaspoons salt and 2 teaspoons of SAF yeast into the bucket in this specific order, and set the bread machine to setting 11 (dough mixing mode) and in 23 minutes, we have enough dough for 2 large pizzas! We cut the dough in two chunks and place them in plastic bags and refrigerate or freeze. The KBS make the process of making pizza’s so easy, that it’s now an effortless process for us during the week to make 1 or more batches. Yeas, we tried bread once, but as a result of Covid, I’ve found that making the type of quality sourdough you see in the pic I’ve provided, that hand kneading yields much higher rising. So I just hand mix and knead my sourdough. The rising is not an issue with the KBS, it’s just that sourdough rising is a process better left to a slow and easy kneading method. As far as the one bread loaf I did make, it was from the 3rd party cookbook others mentioned. I made a white bread loaf and I have to say so myself, that it came out beautifully. But because sourdough is healthier, I’m satisfied with the KBS making just pizza dough. In regards to the machine, it works flawlessly for us. The non-stick ceramic pot is what sold me when reading about the horrors of PTFE’s which are embedded in all the major brands that don’t use ceramic pots. And the ceramic coating makes cleaning up a breeze. Initially, I there was a flaw in the machine that I had read about where others were complaining that if you hit the start button by mistake, the bread machine would run a cycle with no way to cancel it, even if you unplug the device. Well, those people probably don’t use computers much. Being an IT professional, I figured it would be a simple matter of holding down one of the buttons for 5 seconds to reset the machine, and sure enough, by holding down the start button (I believe it’s actually called th Menu button) for a few seconds, you should hear a beat that will tell you that the selected mixing recipe has been cancelled. Other than this one initial flaw in the design, I can’t complain much. The people that complain are probably not used to using a bread machine of any kind and they’ll complain about bad results. The key thing to realize about bread machines is that the ingredients must be added in the specific order specified in the recipe for best results. Just winging things in the pot will get you sub par results no matter what machine you use. And as far as being made in China, tell me what machine probably does not have major internal components from the Far East. These days, we tend to blame the device when 9 times out of 10, it’s operator inexperience or improper use. One area that is poor is the user guide. That I will admit is pretty shabby. But hey! You can get a great guide with another bread maker along with some really tasty PTFE chemicals from their Teflon coated pots! Yum! The pics I’ve provided of my results tell the story. This machine is well made and it can make good breads, pizza doughs, etc. I can highly recommend it, especially if you’ve used other bread maker machines. It’s use is pretty simple with even the tiniest bit of intuitiveness.

I’ve been really happy with this bread maker and think it deserves 5 stars. This blue bread maker machine looks great on the counter. The stainless steel finish gives it a clean, modern look, and it feels sturdy and well made without being too bulky. I like how beginner-friendly it is. The recipe options and settings make it easy to try different kinds of bread without feeling overwhelmed, which takes a lot of the guesswork out of the process. The ceramic bread pan and paddle is also fantastic: sturdy and durable, non-stick. The dough baked in it is soft and fluffy, even better than bread bought from the supermarket. We also love its 15-hour timer and 60-minute keep-warm function. Putting the ingredients in at night and waking up to freshly baked bread in the morning has become our favorite daily routine. Cleaning has been easier than I expected. The removable paddle are simple to wash, and the nonstick surface makes cleanup quick and painless. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase. It looks nice, works well, and makes delicious homemade bread with much less effort. I would definitely recommend it.

This bread maker is really great. Easy to use, easy to clean, and the bread comes out baked to my expectations. I've used this machine a lot. I've used it so much that I had a warranty issue. I didn't expect much when contacting the company, but to my surprise they responded extremely quick and resolved the issue immediately with no hassle. If I even need to buy another bread machine, i'll make sure it's this brand.

This household loves homemade bread, but I am way past the do everything from scratch phase. The thought of gathering all the ingredients, kneading, letting it rise, punching down, kneading, letting it rise and finally baking got to be very old. I did that for years. I finally decided to buy a bread maker. After some thought, I bought this one and got it yesterday. So, this review may be premature, but I love this machine. The bread came out perfect. So tasty, the shape is perfect, the weight is perfect, the size is perfect. Even the crust is perfect. I already have a bread “slicer,” so when I went to carefully cut it with sandwich sized slices, I was delighted. I have used bread makers before and have never liked the way the loaf was baked. So I always went back to making the bread myself. This time, I think I’ll stick to the maker. Now, all that being said, the four stars (instead of five) is because of the instructions. Not great. The other thing is, that the recipe book uses metric only for liquids. Seriously, that is annoying. But not annoying enough to have me give up the maker. The bread is just too tasty for that.

I love homemade bread. I have been a bread making machine user for at least the past three decades. After 35 years of use, my old bread maker baking element died and I found myself searching to find another machine to replace it. After a long search, and several trials and returns of various bread making machines, I chose the KBS bread maker, for its quality and price. Since I got mine in November 2025, I made my bread using my KBS machine, twice a week for the past 9 months, before deciding to write this review. This is what I found: The machine came with a manual of course, and two booklets packed with bread recipes and pictures, all well written in English, with clear instructions that were accurate. I tried various recipes, using various flours. Their recipes were all accurate (I used a scale to weigh everything) though adding no more than ONE tablespoon of liquid to some of the recipes. Their recipes for bread making worked great, and all this time, the electronic timing was accurate and perfect. The KBS is a sturdy machine that stayed in place during each use. No worries that it would travel or fall off your counter, as other machines would. I love its nut dispenser. I used the latter everytime, over those past 9 months. Regarding the bucket: Easy to install and remove, it’s coated with non-stick ceramic, which did not flake or peal. Still in pristine condition after 9 months. After I used the moving paddle though, it got stuck to its axel a few times, even though I soaked the whole bucket in hot water and a soapy solution. The first time it took an hour of soaking to remove it from its axel, the second time a day, the third time two days and the fourth time it got stuck for a few days. To avoid the problem, I found a simple solution which I highly recommend. Wash the axel and the paddle thoroughly, as soon as you take out your bread. Make sure there is no trace of bread on the paddle, in its hole, or the axel. Dry both paddle and axel thoroughly and just before using, spray the axel and the hollow part of the paddle with non-stick original PAM oil. This will resolve any future problems. No more need to soak in soapy hot water anymore to detach the paddle from its axel. You will also receive a card to email John, if you have any questions regarding the KBS machine. I emailed John, who responded. He was very helpful and professional in his response. Some advice: Follow the KBS bread maker manual to the letter. I would try their white flour bread first. 1 1/2 lbs is ideal. After you become familiar with the machine, only then try other flours, like whole wheat, etc. It’s a great bread making machine, and I recommend it. I love my machine and I take good care of it. After 9 months, it looks and works no different that from the time I purchased mine. I highly recommend it for its quality and price.

KBS Bread Machine: Sourdough Notes, First Use: About: I'm an experienced baker & pastry chef, I have never used a bread machine before! For the sake of inexperienced and experienced alike, I make these notes. When baking bread I look for hydration, softness, smoothness, elasticity, stickiness, stiffness, pull, crumb, etc. The high gluten flour used for bread is considered high protein flour. Higher protein flour absorbs more water than lower protein flour. Bread flour may need more water than all-purpose flours lower protein content. The dough should be soft & supple, not too firm, nor too dry. Gluten & protein content of wheat flour: Bread flour = 12-14% (hard spring wheat). All-purpose flour (combination of hard & soft wheat) = 8-11%. Cake flour (soft white wheat) = 7-9%. Soft white wheat (lower gluten/protein) is good for non-kneaded baked goods like cookies, pancakes, pie crust, cakes/sponges, flat breads, soda breads, biscuits, etc. For gluten free bread; go with high protein rice flour, sorghum flour, tapioca starch, & potato starch. I happen to prefer my sourdough bread, daily bread, to be a simple 4 ingredient affair, excluding oils/fats, sugars, etc. Here's the recipe, based on bakers math, that I used for my first go at the new bread machine. Basic Sourdough Bread: 2lb loaf 3 2/3 c bread flour (organic unbleached bread flour) 1 ¼ c warm filtered water (higher elevation- added about 2-3 tbsp extra water- a small handful). 1 tbsp salt (pink Himalayan) ½ c + 2 tbsp prepared sourdough starter Sourdough Starter: Average room temperature between 68°F – 72°F. Altitude: 4487 Feet. Weather; Snowing. Average outside temperature, Low 22°F, High 43°F. Humidity outside between 92% - 99%. Sourdough starter was started 5 days prior to baking using organic unbleached bread flour, & warm filtered water. Starter is in glass container with inverted loose lid so it can “breath” (expel gasses, & absorb environmental microbial yeasts & bacteria), container sits on a thick cloth, on top of cool kitchen counter. Viscosity; after first 4 days, starter becomes the consistency thin pancake batter (manufactures directions), hydration level of starter is too high. Discard 1c of starter. Now into 5th day of starter growth; I've named my starter Gertie, short for Gertrude, I don't know why I like that name? Starter Fed; Increase flour (1c) to water (½ c); lower hydration ratio, sourdough starter is now the consistency of very thick pancake batter, it's 7am. There is approximately 3 ½ – 4 cups of starter. At 2 pm starter is considered a high viscosity, more sluggish and resistant to deformation, thick pancake batter. Starter smells slightly acidic- like mild vinegar, slightly sweet, with excellent bubble formation (carbon dioxide), fermentation is perfect! At this point starter should either be fed, used for baking, or stored in the refrigerator. Note: if you have extra starter, you could dehydrate it and use it dry, use 105°F or less temp! Starter is ready, bread making begins. Bread Machine Baking: KBS Bread Machine pan has been cleaned, paddle inserted (stirring knife). Generally; fallowing quick steps for making bread provided by manufactures pamphlet that is included with machine (liquid, solids, yeast). My steps: Into the fabulous Teflon free, ceramic coated bread pan (2nd reason for buying this particular machine); warm filtered water, bread flour, salt, prepared sourdough starter, stir it up gently with thin rubber spatula, don't want to scratch the bread pan! Insert pan, lock into place, plug in, Press menu button, unable to access menu! Press start button, machine starts on default mode. Press menu button, unable to access menu! Press start button, machine stops, still unable to access menu. Unplug, wait, re-plug machine in. Press menu button, unable to access menu! Press start, machine starts on default mode, again. Confusion reigns; call techno inclined friend for help! Press Start again, on second press of start button we realize it's going into Pause. Press start button third time in a row, machine now turns Off. Feeling like a total dunderhead, friend laughs with me, not at me, he was just as confused as I was! Press menu button while machine is in Off mode and ta-da, trumpets sound, sun comes out, joy abounds, do a little happy dance with friend..... The machine allows me to access menu mode! Smiling with sigh of relief, brand new machine works, yay! Mental note: Must remember to press Start, Pause, Stop to reach Menu! Choose Settings: Category #3 (1st reason for choosing this particular machine= categories); Natural Sourdough. Baked Crust Color- Lightest, Loaf size; 2 lbs. Hit Start! Machine works fine, perfect in fact, it tells me it has about 6 ½ hours till it will be done, no adjustments needed on my part & perfect for the breads state of development, (remember naturally fermenting bread like sourdough takes time; bakers yeast, bread machine yeast, active dry yeast, rapid rise yeast, etc., will be far, far less time, and have a different flavor!) But my friend is disappointed, apparently he thought the bread would be done almost instantaneously; hot, fresh, home-made bread, ready in seconds! I tell him to go home and come back later for a late supper, including the fresh bread :) Tasting notes: Bread has a slightly acetic nose, crumb is well developed and moderate, crust is slightly crispy and pale cream in color, a bit too light for sourdough (will try medium bake color next time!), slightly glossy finish with excellent spring, very tasty natural tanginess with slightly chewy texture! Friend likes bread so much he takes remainder of loaf home! Thoughts: Yes I had a technology learning curve dunderhead moment, normal for me; yes I named my starter after someone's grandma someplace, in the end I love this machine. Very convenient, 17 categories of bread/jam/yogurt/fermentation, three weights, three bake colors, nice looking design (3rd reason for buying this machine)- looks so pretty on my black counter tops, not to large, very quiet, so quiet in fact I periodically went over to check on it to make sure it was still good to go! I will hopefully enjoy this machine for years & years to come, thank you KBS (Jiangmen Kangbaishi Electrical Appliances Co., Ltd: China), you've made a really nice product!

We have been interested in baking our own bread to ensure that we are eating quality sourced ingredients, and to help lower the cost from purchasing the higher priced artisan breads from a local bakery. This is our first bread machine that we have tired, and we are very happy with the results! The KBS Pro Bread Machine is very easy to use. It comes with all the required parts to get going with baking your own bread at home. The instructions are very easy to understand, and there is a wealth of information on the whole process; there are also answers to many questions that might come up in the process of starting with baking bread. In use, the machine is very easy to understand and operate. Basically, the ingredients are added to the bread pan in the proper order, the machine is started with the desired settings, and in a short time there will be a wonderful fresh baked loaf! As we were completely new to baking bread, we were not sure if it would be too difficult, but it is very easy. There are little tips that we learn as we use it, and it just gets better. One thing I was curious about was the potential for the machine to use a lot of electricity, as things like toaster ovens can run around 1500 watts. The KBS bread machine will take around 3 hours to bake a loaf of bread, however, only about an hour of that time will it be in the “bake” mode where the heater element is on, and when I tested it, it only use about 550~570 watts. So, the KBS bread machine is an economical way to bake bread rather than heating a larger oven. As far as the KBS customer support goes, I will say that they are among the best I have experienced (speaking from someone who managed a customer service/support dept. for many years). I had a small issue that I contacted their customer support email (that is listed on every page in the manual); the support representative had a very prompt reply, and addressed my minor issue; exceeding my expectation for resolution. We ordered this KBS bread maker along with the “No Fuss Bread Machine Cookbook” that many people have ordered at the same time on Amazon. There are many great recipes in there that we have already baked with the KBS, and would suggest that as well. Overall, this is a fantastic bread making machine that comes highly recommended. We are very happy to have ordered it, and are really enjoying all the creative fresh bread recipes we have been making...and eating!

Me gusto mucho, el pan queda muy bien, es fácil seguir las instrucciones

love this oven so far. it is solid and reasonably quiet. it sure takes a lot of the work out of making bread. my only complaint is the nut and fruit dispenser release makes a lot of noise when it opens. the bread is always cooked and if you follow your own recipe the bread tastes great. i find the display hard to turn on while the unit is running without accidentally pausing the process. also it is highly sensitive if you wipe it while it is running you can change settings. accidentally or pause the timer. the window to view the bread fogs up very quickly and is small and dark when you are trying to see how things are going while it is neading or cooking. i find the instructions fairly easy to navigate though vague. and the recipes are pretty badly laid out and not enough detail to be useful. better to find instructions on youtube from people who have actually used this same unit successfully. Also the paddle hook for paddle removal is pretty useless.

المنتج ممتاز، فقط عليك قراء دليل المستخدم بالكامل بعناية شديدة. كل ما عليك فعله هو وضع جميع المكونات بالترتيب المكتوب في دليل المستخدم واختيار نوعية الخبز، فترة الإنظار، وزن الخبز، واللون المرغوب، بعدها يقوم الجهاز بالعجن وراحة العجين والعجن والتخمير والخبز. الحلة الداخلية سيراميك خامتها ممتازة ولا تلتصق بالخبز مهما كان نوع العجين أو درجة التخمير. الماكينة مناسبة للخبز من ٧٥٠ جرام أو كيلو. يمكن خبز ٥٠٠ جرام ولكن الخبز يخرج صغير. يمكن لنفس الماكينة صناعة المربى أو الزبادي، كما يوجد برنامج للتخمير فقط أو الخبز فقط. الجهاز ممتاز، ينقصه بعض الوظائف مثل التحكم في وقت الخبز أو التخمير بدوياً، ولكن بشكل عام وبالمقارنة بالسعر اعتقد ان هذا أكثر جهاز في أمازون يستحق سعره.

تصنع الخبز وانصح بها

works well, no problems. good product
