Очень смешно читать, что на сети пишут по-русски про хлебопечные машины. Мнения разделились географически. Из Америки: это полезнейшее изобретение! Оно изменило всю нашу жизнь! Самая нужная вещь в доме!! Из России: но позвольте, зачем?! Выпекать хлеб дома?.. Какой смысл?

P.S. Хлеб я предпочитаю печь в духовке.
