HEADS UP !!
HEADS UP everyone. This is now working well overall but I had the devil of a time trying to get it to work and to stay on, UNTIL I removed the clear protective plastic 'shipping' tape that covered the control dial. It just wouldn't turn on and stay on, no matter which buttons I pushed and which selections I made. Then, I finally removed the clear plastic protective layer and it works like a charm!!! I guess it must have been sensing that protective layer and thought it was me trying to turn it off. So, keep that in mind if you are having trouble.* The material is good and the functionality is just what I wanted.* You cannot set INDIVIDUAL temperatures. Instead, there are 6 temperature options to choose, about every 9 degrees Fahrenheit apart from each other.* I like the 4 liter bowl. It is pretty large size. You can make and rise 1 loaf or a dozen rolls, or you can make up to 2 or even maybe 3 loaves of bread.* The soft, silicone rubber is not sticky for the dough and is easy to clean, but MAKE SURE to take out the heating element Control before putting it in water.I am not enamored of the fact that the rubber bowl collapses down to a flat 1 1/2 inches. To me that is a disadvantage, because I don't need to collapse it to store it and this makes it so that it could possibly collapse without your meaning to do so, just while using it, but the collapsable bowl does have its advantages for those who prefer it for storage.It is powered by a USB-C cord, and the cord comes with it but not the 'charging block.' It is low powered, but the rubber does not radiate the heat away as much as a metal bowl or glass jar would.The instructions are very minimalistic. It is not complex and not hard to learn to use, but I would have liked a bit more, especially when I couldn't get it to stay on, at first, before I figured out to remove the protective cover over the Control Panel, as I discussed above.Overall, this is actually a solid purchase for a dough heating bowl and I recommend it for all you home bakers who just want to make some rolls for dinner or make a loaf or two of bread, without too much hassle. You can also use it to ferment things like Yogurt, but how many people make their own yogurt?I do recommend it and can see myself using it over and over.
