I tried Lakeland's bread maker with sales 776 percent up and here's my honest review

Recent data shows Lakeland reported a 776% year-on-year sales increase for its Compact Loaf Bread Maker, a £69.99 appliance measuring 31 x 21.5 x 25cm that produces a 1lb loaf.
A recent Lakeland survey found 31% of UK adults say they are cooking from scratch more than a year ago, rising to 35% versus two years and 44% versus five years, which Lakeland linked to booming sales of small appliances.
The Compact Loaf offers 11 presets, a knead-only setting, and a delay-start timer with tactile controls and a recipe booklet.
After a few weeks of use, customers say the machine becomes part of weekly routines, providing warm breakfasts but may not suit households feeding four or five.
Beyond sales figures, Lakeland's social channels increased exposure for the bread maker, supporting a broader shift toward cooking from scratch and ingredient control, Lakeland said.
