    Hi,
    My breadmaker died yesterday, in everyday use, and I can't find any store that sells them new, not in Ireland or the UK. Littlewoods and Curry's are out of stock.
    Even Amazon doesn't seem to have any listing, other than ones to be delivered from China.
    Ebay has some listings for new ones but they're bidding ones that have gone sky high on price.

    Anyone know of stores here that would sell them so I can buy one online please?

    I know your looking a bread maker but don't rule out a stand mixer with a dough hook.
    Our kitchen aid is on fill time duty !

    When flour and yeast went into constraint, I wondered if people would be trying to make bread by hand or buying breadmakers. Guess it's breadmakers :)

    Curry's sell some online. Mainly Panasonic. Not cheap but very good and you can easily get spare parts.

    For breads, I would look out for the highest wattage you can afford, and a big bowl. I find the Kenwood mixers give you more wattage and a decent sized bowl for the money versus the Kitchen Aid.

    Some will use more efficient motors so get the same mixing power at lower watts.

    This heavy duty professional kitchenaid is only 500W

    expensive of course but there could be cheaper brands using that style of more efficient motor. They are meant to be quieter too.

    this buffalo brand one is cheap & being sold as a commercial model and only 270W, though I do not know if it is using this style of more efficient motor so would want to check out reviews.
