Anymore, I buy my bread machines used at thrifts and garage sales. I
bought a couple for the parts (pans and paddles). Not only do I use
them for making bread, but for kneading dough for pizza and stolens, and
they work quite well.

If I need any kind of custom control on the kneading for a non-bread
machine backed good, I switch to my stand mixers (both kitchen-aid in my
case, but there are several good competing brands). Unlike bread
machines, however, I almost never see a high end stand mixer at a thrift
or garage sale. Occasionally at an estate sale, but even that's rare.

Hope this helps.
