Yeesh. You could buy a Lot of good bread from bakeries for that money. I think it would take me at Least a year, buying specialty bread weekly, to balance out the cost of the bread machine itself, not to mention the cost of ingredients, time and effort, electricity for the machine, etc. You'd have to really like baking for that to be worth it.
Just to reiterate:

You could buy a bread machine at Sunsimexco near Central Market for $65, but that was three years ago. My old post on this: general-chatter/visit-december-t16165-20.html Aeon mall and the electric appliance shop in Sorya Mall (level 3 ?) also had them.
Thanks, I saw your post from a few years ago. I checked at Sunsimexco in tow locations today (including the one near Psah Thmey). They said it is out of stock and not clear when they will get it in stock. But I'll check back again if other methods don't work.
The op checked this out and they were out of stock and so I posted where he could get one now. Pointing out it was a Kenwood and of course you will know that Kenwood appliances are good quality and expensive. Its one option that solves his problem immediately if he does not want to wait for Sunsimexco to restock.

Sorry, I didn't mean to hate on your helpful recommendation. That comment was just my surprise that they're so expensive here.

I just noticed a "similar topic" down below is "8 People Poisoned Eating Bread, Siem Reap" or something like that. Even if you got the most expensive bread maker, it might be a bargain compared to the alternative. :beer3:
Do you think the parents of baby boomers whined so much when the boomers started changing society? And yet the whiney ones like to call young people "snowflakes." Hmm...

Thanks for your suggestion, I believe you mentioned a table oven... we do have one of those actually, I'll try it first.

If I was you I would learn to make doughs without a machine...you can then make different breads.
I make pizzas...yorkshire pudding...yeast rolls...cookies...cakes..coffee cake...and baguettes.
Make dough ...portion it...freeze what you don't bake..
I am making falafel this week and am going to make some pita dough...probably cook on the stove though..
It has been my experience that breadmakers lose their luster and gather dust...
A nice oven will come in handy all the time.
A nice workout for your hands and working with doughs is fun...I have used every kind of mixer with dough hooks from counter top to huge floor ...
But, I prefer working the dough manually.
YouTube has a ton of recipes...
Thanks, we do have a table top oven actually. Sounds like you made some great food.

One challenge we face is the lack of internet... it's hard to do anything new without internet! I bought some flour and yeast a few days ago and can try to make some bread at home.

As I've never had one and don't really know what it can do, it seems a bit over the top to spend that much on an appliance that we don't know how much we will use it. At that price, I'm more inclined to try the 'old fashioned way' as others have mentioned and just use a normal oven.

But again, not really clear what a bread machine can do...
