two different breadman TR875 - difference and wattage rating: Does anyone know how many watts they are, and what is the difference between these two machines?

I'm so sorry about your old breadmaker -- good luck finding a decent replacement. Really. I even spent nearly $200 on the Zojirushi last summer only to have two different defective machines that burned one end of the loaf while leaving the other not browned at all. I returned it for credit at the store where I purchased it. My Sunbeam makes a realiably good loaf of bread and is very inexpensive to purchase, but the bread pans leak lubricant which you don't even realize unless you take the uncooked dough out and examine it before baking (we realized this was happening when making pizza dough). The posts for this Breadman machine are not encouraging. Probably not worth considering. I'll be buying something else. What machine did you use for 21 years that worked so well? Get another one like it is my advice!

I use "Breadman." I use the basic setting for 3 hrs, 5 min. It comes out perfect every time. Had this for about 2 years. No problems.

I just checked my mixer (Bosch Compact mum4405)... 400 watts is correct and I agree with the other reviewers. This is plenty of power. I like the compact machine much better than my previous cast iron mixer which was very heavy (and less powerful). The Bosch fits well inside my kitchen cabinet and it's easy to lift and to set up. I bake more often now and have reclaimed much needed space in my pantry, which was the only place where my previous mixer would fit.

I e-mailed KitcheAid and asked them this question. I have the 9 Speed. It was almost a year ago but I think they said it was 220 watts. I have a 30 year old KitchenAid K5SS stand mixer that is still going strong. I do not abuse it. It was made by Hobart and there is a tag on the side of the mixer saying so. Their quality has really gone down. The KitchenAid 9-Speed mixer I bought lasted one mixing. Dealing with KitchenAid is like dealing with the government. I was fortunate that I bought the item from a reliable retailer. I returned it and got a new one which I have never used. I still use our 20 year old $20.00 mixer as it is only 110 watts and seems to be just as powerful as the KitchenAid. I stay away from their products even if they get good reviews.

Mine is 325 watts. It is the Artisan model. The base model is 300 according to the specs on line. I believe the Pro600 which is the lift bowl model, has 575 watts so it is significantly more powerful. You may need a little more oomph in your circuits to support that to keep from blowing circuits according to my semi-sparky hubby. I hope some other bakers weigh in on this as I am a neophyte.

Aurelia, let me go check out the manual, which by the way, really does stink; I must admit the manual stinks. Lookit that: not only does it not mention the wattage range, there is no Underwriter's Laboratory information. Nor is there an information regarding the engine's power. I guess we would mark this up as a con. I do not see a switch on the machine from 110/120 to 220/240.

It's 400 Watts but it feels like more. It's perfectly capable of making bread dough or whip egg whites to perfection in few minutes. It has plenty of power. I also own the Bosch Universal Plus but it is too large unles you are making large batches of bread dough which I do when I bake to freeze it. I love and prefer the Compact machine for my everyday baking.

Price is the only difference I can see. Save yourself a few dollars, this one works great - I also use it to make Cuban sandwiches & it does a great job!

No wattage is noted on the machine. It makes great waffles, two squares at a time, and does not draw enough to blow a breaker. That is all I care about.

From looking at the specs the only difference I can see is the "portable" unit has a couple new custom heat settings and an upper power level of 1800 watts vs. the "counter top" units 1600 watt rating. I have the counter top unit and it does everything I want. You could probably mimic the extra heat settings on the portable by playing with the heat level and timer settings. I don't believe those small differences in the portable are worth the extra 50% in price over the counter top unit.

have you called Hayward for assistance? I read 'wanda's' owners manual. I dont see anywhere it says what watts, amps or gph the motor should be. I had an IRobot Verro. It just died last year. I was looking for an alternative. apparently 'wanda' is not the one! Sorry I cant be much help but thanks for yours!

Looks like the pdf manual can be found here: http://www.blackanddeckerappliances.com/products/cookers-and-steamers/bread-machines/one-and-a-half-pound-bread-machine-bk1015w.aspx

I really do not know because I bought a Bread Maker for that. I do know that it has a lot of power. Professionalsuse this machine. You can 'googol' this question. That is what my husband does before we buy anything. He looks at the reviews.

Absolutely terrific machine, I would gladly buy another as a backup (sorry not sure of the wattage but plugs into ordinary 3 prong socket) But will not get another till I find one here in LA already. I built Tripp-Lite a new one after it was delivered from Chicago. The delivery box was in shreads. I blame TL for a crap box although it really is Fed ex or UPS that makes the delivery but no matter I would have bought another except for that problem. thanks dave

I would stick with the one specifically mentioned for your model of bread maker. I have the older one and always buy the replacement pans and paddles for that model. The machine itself is over 10 years old now and still going strong. I bake a fresh bread every single day, sometimes two in a day. I buy a new pan and two sets of paddles about once a year.

Beem in Germany makes a non-teflon breadmaker. Amazon.de has it. I can get a step up transformer to go from 125 VAC to the 230 VAC that it needs, but we have 60Hz. power in the US and Europe uses 50Hz. this would make the kneeding motor run faster. I do not know if this would cause a problem and neither does Beem who I contacted. If anyone is using the Beem D1000310 here in the US with a power adapter would you please post any info you can including what power adapter you are using. Thank you.

I have been getting the same results. This is very disappointing with such rave reviews for an incredibly expensive machine. I have not had problems with my Panasonic or Breadman machines (that I couldn't track down). I am happy with how sturdy the pan is and need to buy a new machine as my Breadman's pan is in bad shape.
