re: salt and sodium - they are not the same thing. salt is NaCl, whereas Sodium only tells you how much Na is in there - which is basically cheating, as Na is never present on its own, but always in NaCl = salt.
so, when they say 'only 2.2gr of Sodium', read Salt = sodium x 2.5
nice, isn't it? immediately, you realise how much salt is in the dish they tried to flog as 'low salt'
OOOoooo you have got e going now..... do they cost a bomb.... I'm very, very, very tempted!!

Mine's not a Panasonic, but can't remember what make it is offhand. Its great for white and speciality loaves, but cr*p for wholemeal, and dire for brown bread. With those I remove the dough at the end of the dough cycle, and leave it prove overnight in the normal oven, before cooking it next day in the latter. Its great for things like Cheddar and chilli bread, or caramalised onion bread, if you like interesting flavours in your sarnie, and you use hardly any salt or sugar.
It is fair enough to make your own bread normally from time to time, but if your husband needs low salt intake *all* the time, then it will soon get tedious. With delay timers you can have the lovely smell of fresh bread to wake up to as well... Wonderful...
Ours is Panasonic too, I think. It had the best reviews at the time. Although you might be able to get a bargain, be aware that one or two aren't so good - a friend of mine has an "Anthony Worral-Thomson"(?) one that produces lead, no matter what recipe you use!
Ours has lasted 4 years of fairly constant use, so at £80, I'd say it has cost a maximum of 25p per loaf plus ingredients, so definately cheaper than buying the nice fresh bread from supermarkets anyway. _________________ *All* tiles now up in the bathroom!
