It isn't quite as good as my own handmade bread, but it is still pretty darn good for the money.

LOL! You're a better baker than I, apparently. Mine always has a good flavor, but the fluffy texture always eludes me.

Fluffiness requires a finer grind of flour than the “bread flour” that you can get in the store. I prefer rustic breads, so my loaves are not exactly fluffy. They aren’t heavy, though. The single biggest factor in getting a good rise is the yeast. The stuff they sell in packets at supermarkets is usually at the end of its rope. I get mine from a local Amish market.
