Purchase Advice & Experiences Looking for wedding gift bread machine recommendations

Hello! I'm looking for recommendations on a bread machine as a wedding gift, ideally below/around $150. One of them likes to make their own dough, and I'd love to make it easier for them.

I'd also like to get one for my household, but I have a bit more price flexibility in that regard.

I'm open to any recommendations (as well as the opposite) and advice. Thank you!

My KBS also has a dedicated sourdough setting (now if I could only find a recipe using live starter with it…)
Disclaimer: my Breadman Pro finally died, I loved it. I bought this JBS because it was black, lol, and because it has probably the most “flat” bread pan I could find, aside from the $500 machines.

Rose Homestead has a sourdough sandwich bread recipe for the bread machine! It’s the first recipe I made with my machine and was a slam dunk. Incidentally, she also has the KBS Pro and seeing her video on it is what convinced me to buy mine.

Thank you, it’s the first I am seeing. The KBS’ program recipe requires dry starter.
