    Amazing find!

    DAK was a source for many Christmas gifts. A special one to our family was the DAK bread machine for my grandmother. Arthritis took her ability to knead bread dough so she had stopped making her homemade bread. She wasn’t technically inclined, but she became an expert on that machine and her bread making resumed. Great memory.

    Many thanks.
