I had a second-hand bread machine that served me very well for several years, until one day when it started vibrating like crazy and threw itself off the counter mid-knead. The whole lid smashed into about seven pieces and the dough went all over the floor. We still refer to it as "the time the bread maker committed suicide."
Anyway, that's how I ended up making all our bread by hand for the next four years or so.
Apparently I'm not alone in this. Though I don't think ours died, though we did give it away... Maybe it's the same machine, transferred several times until it finally found a floor that would finish the job.
My bread machine just slowly developed a leak and died. I decided my stand mixer would do and removed the crying machine.
