We only had ours since 1984 so it’s hard to tell about quality and longevity 😎 But it’s one hell of machine for baking bread, we seldom buy bread, large batches for holidays and smaller for everyday use. We also have the meat grinder, veggie slicer and other stuff, they all work great. We have a...

If possible, put the gas tank in a water bath, not boiling hot but warm to hottish.

Yes I get that, sorry if I was unclear, what’s the benefit of the enamel, why not stainless steel??
