Lakeland breadmaker spares

[Vir Campestris]

This thing uses a teflon-lined bucket to make the bread in. You chuck all the ingredients in, it stirs it about, then cooks it. So you can't line it, and any greasing will be off by the time the bread is cooked.

Most of the manufacturers seem to regard the bucket as a consumable - and you can get replacements. Expensive, but you can get them.

Not Lakeland. A big black mark in my book.

Does any one happen to know who else uses the same design of bucket as a Lakeland My Kitchen Compact Breadmaker? Before I go out and buy another one from a company that does do spares?

Panasonic take the piss with their pans - over £100, which if more than I paid for the breadmaker.

Mrs McGregor has the same problem

Lakeland have told her they will be intouch.

I've never had the bucket fail. I have had the bearing seal where the paddle goes thru fail.

I don?t bother with spares, get another from a yard/boot sale for much less money.

I was more interested in Paula's squeamish shaped loaf.

Give up and make bread by hand. 5 minutes kneading, half-hour rising in oven at coolest, half-hour cooking at 250C, job done.

[Tim w]

Have to agree. A stand mixer to knead, then you will be able to double the quantity and bake half as often. Tim w

My Panasonic is 18 years old, and doesn't need a new pan yet. (The paddle is not as non-stick as it was, but I usually remove it after the knock-down, so that doesn't matter.)

[Eoin]

I believe this is the same as the lakeland one and have just ordered

[GB]

That's very reasonable. £16. It looks v similar to the panasonic version, which costs £72.

Anybody care to comment on why panasonic charge as much for the bread pan as for the whole machine?

[Vir Campestris]

It certainly looks like it. Let me know if it works - I've bought a new one, but haven't got around to throwing away the old one yet!

It's not faulty - it's been mistreated. Metal implements in the teflon bowl.

I'll give it a go. Thanks!

Quote from weblink "Bread Pan Assembly Stock Number: ES509586

Manufactured by Morphy Richards (This part fits select models)"

That's nicely ironic - we had a Morphy Richards bread maker that was a PIA, and was pretty erratic in how well it made bread. Finally it did oblige u s by dying and HID went off and bought a Lakeland's one. She has sung it's praises ever since and even I can get it to produce a good loaf!!

Hi, did ES509586 fit your Lakeland bread maker? Cheers John

He's probably forgotten. It was four years ago.

Can you please leave a link to the one you bought, is it the Espares Morphy Richards one listed earlier in the forum? John Burns
