I have the Breadman Ultimate and I love it. I know nothing about the Panasonic, so I really can't compare.

Is price a consideration for you? If so, what prices are you looking at between the two?

i have the breadman ultimate and love it but......
one thing to consider is whether spare parts would be available to purchase for your machine. They don't seem to be available for the breadman
(my pan got scratched by someone who didn't know not to use a sharp knife to get the bread out

and I can't get another one)

I decided on the Panasonic after reading a ton of reviews at eopinions , one of the factors was the ability to get parts.
Thank you for replying

I got the machine a few days ago today I tried the sandwich bread cycle it came out wonderfully... I couldn't be more pleased and I got it for a great price from Ebay.

Sorry I didn't see this before but in my opinion you made a great choice in getting the Panasonic. I had a cheap breadmaker for years and it made really crappy bread, I hardly ever used it. Then when I moved down here and started working in the big house the housekeeper was telling me about the great bread she made in her bread machine and she brought me in a loaf one day. What a world of difference....my bread that I had made in my bread machine was like a door stop, her's was wonderful and fluffy and had a great texture, consistency and taste. Her bread machine, the panasonic....needless to say my husband and I splurged on one and I haven't looked back, have been making all my bread in it ever since and have never had a dissappointing loaf!! I even recommended it to Nic from on here, and she got one and is really happy with hers as well. Once again, an excellent choice!
