Is it good for a first bread maker?

Yes. You pick a preset and press start, with no size or crust menus to work through. That makes it one of the simpler machines to learn on.

Can I choose crust colour or loaf size?

No. The machine bakes loaves up to 2lb and does not offer crust or size settings. You choose the programme only.

Does it handle gluten-free bread?

Yes. Gluten-free is one of the 12 presets, alongside white, wholemeal, French and sandwich bread, dough mixing and cake.

What can it do besides bake loaves?

It mixes dough and bakes cakes, and a keep-warm setting holds the finished loaf so it does not cool too fast.

Will it fit a small kitchen?

Its slim body is designed to take little worktop space and to fit in a cupboard between bakes.

How does it compare with option-heavy bread makers?

It gives up fine control for simplicity. Rivals offer custom crusts and sizes; this one gives you 12 presets and two buttons.

Our take on the Lakeland EasyUse 2lb Bread Maker

The Lakeland EasyUse is a 2lb bread maker built around two buttons: one to pick from 12 presets, one to start. It skips the size and crust menus most machines push at you, which makes it a gentle first bread maker. The slim body suits small kitchens and can go in a cupboard between bakes. It handles white, wholemeal, French, sandwich and gluten-free loaves, plus dough mixing and cake baking, and has a keep-warm setting and a viewing window. Against option-heavy rivals it trades fine control for simplicity, so bakers who want custom crusts and loaf sizes will find it limited.

About the Lakeland EasyUse 2lb Bread Maker

The Lakeland EasyUse Bread Maker is a simple bread machine that makes loaves up to 2lb. One button selects from 12 presets and another starts the program. There are no size or crust settings to choose.

The presets cover white and wholemeal loaves, French-style and sandwich bread, and gluten-free options. It can also mix dough and bake cakes. The machine handles the mixing, kneading and baking.
