I've used it for several years, but I think it's still usable. It can bake delicious bread. It's also convenient for making mochi ☺︎ There are scratches on the bread case, so it's a little difficult to remove the bread after baking. Applying butter or oil before baking might make it easier to remove. Everything in the photos is included. The instruction manual shows signs of use. For those considering buying a home bakery and wondering what it's like, Why not try it at a low price?
