There’s a 13 hour timer, multiple settings for different bread menus; and then there’s that heater set right on the lid, which gives even and uniform baking. The menu includes perfect cooking settings for different breads, including wheat bread, sourdough starter, quick bake loaves, jam pastries.

The breadmaker successfully bakes doughs for any bread including gluten free, and even has three home-made settings.

The Reviews

“I HAVE THREE OF THESE MACHINES . THEY NEVER DISSAPPOINT ME THE ELEMENT ON THE LID IS GREAT LOVE IT FOR EXTRA BROWNING OF THE LOAVES.” -J. L. Neill “FLORAL GAL”

The Zojirushi BB-PAC20 Home Bakery Breadmaker has achieved a superlative 4.2 star rating (out of 5), with positive, not to say glowing, recommendations from numerous satisfied customers. They praise its excellent tasting bread, right out of the box and one adds that he greatly enjoyed the Honey White loaf the Breadmaker produced, which he pronounced out of this world. He was supposed to save the breadmaker for Christmas, but could not resist christening it early. He made some fabulous holiday baked breads into the bargain, adding that the breadmaker performed beautifully, the crust was perfect and the unit was very user friendly.

Most of the reviews are in the same vein, calling the Zojirushi a great machine, high priced but worth it, while another called it the best bread machine ever! Another consumer says the “Zo” was a great heavy duty unit that makes a truly excellent and normal shaped loaf; his favorite is the rich egg bread known as Challah. The reviewer is so enthused that he proceeds to give the recipe.

Another labeled it worth the price, as she gets perfect bread every time, and, using the dough settings at least weekly, she makes loaves of sandwich bread every day. She went on to say that the machine exceeds her high expectations. And another caps it all by calling it the absolute best bread machine, adding that if anyone bakes a lot of bread, it is worth every penny.

Not everyone had a great experience, but it was close; there were only two negative reviews. One complained that the browning heating element did not function correctly, and his loaf tops were white. He added a caveat emptor at the end, and warned against purchase. The other had a complete dud of an experience: his machine did not even turn on.

What Are Customers Saying About Zojirushi bread machine

“My other Zojirushi bread machine is over 15 years old, still works,but, tops were starting to be underdone. So I upgraded to the Virtuoso. I love it as much as my first one and hope i get the same service! Zojirushi’s are more expensive, but if you bake a lot of bread, they are worth every penny.” – Terri A. Suddreth “tas“
