Much fridge food ‘goes there to die’

The "good" expensive bread that is sold in the US at $5-6 a loaf never lasts more than a few days anyway - it's just too tasty and gets eaten quick

And the imitation "sandwich" bread that tastes like cardboard and sawdust easily lasts for 3+ weeks regardless of where and how it is stored. Which makes me marvel at what it's made of that it doesn't go bad in a month.

Bread machines are tricky and very messy. They don't produce enough heat to fully cook bread through like it would in a proper commercial oven. At least that was my experience with all the consumer-grade bread machines. YMMV

I have a breadmaker and love it. Pop the ingredients in as you go to bed and come down in the morning to the smell of fresh, warm bread. The bucket is non-stick so really easy to pop out your loaf and clean up. You're right that some models are a poor experience though. If you ever fancy giving one a go again, I'd recommend one of Panasonic's (https://www.panasonic.com/uk/consumer/home-appliances/breadm...) machines. I'd never use anything else.

Once you get the bread bug you have to keep getting better and better bread till you just end up making home made sourdough
