Hi..The sealed bearing that the paddle shaft rotates on is starting to fail. Soon it will freeze up entirely and you will need a new bread pan. Fill the bread pan half way up with hot water a few times and see if you can free it up to "buy some time" Hank
Hi, This is a common problem. The solution is to take the paddle out of the machine after the last kneading cycle and before final rise/bake. You may want to take the pan out of the machine to remove the paddle to be safe...unless your machine has a pause cycle. Hank
Hi, There is a sealed bearing at the bottom of the pan. This allows the paddle to rotate. The bearing has failed and is falling apart. This usually happens with age or use. Time for a new bread pan. If you are lucky you can find one on ebay. Sorry for the bad news....Hank

I have made the following recipe in my West Bend machine with great results. I just got a Sunbeam 5895 at a garage sale - it works great - just wanted a different "shape" loaf! I'm going to use this recipe in my Sunbeam - don't see why it won't work!
Here's the recipe!
1/2 cup softened butter, cut into small pieces for good blending
1 cup mashed ripe banana (personal note: if my ripe bananas don't measure up to 1 cup, I add enough milk to make it 1 cup. Seems to be okay)
2 eggs, large, slightly beaten
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Grease inside of pan and knead bar generously with vegetable shortening (I just spray with Pan Spray). All all ingredients in order listed above to pan. Lock pan into bread machine. Program for quick bread. After a few minutes of mixing, I usually take a rubber spatula and scrape down the sides and stir in any flour that has not been completely mixed. I didn't do this once and ended up with a loaf that had flour coated corners!
Good Luck! Enjoy!
Just follow the above recipe but if your using the Oster 5838 expressbake put the setting at expressbake 80min. It works flawlessly, also with the oster 5838 expressbake you don't need to use the rubber spatula to mix after a minute because it blends everything together nicely.
Thanks bobert.
Yes. I have tried several mixes & all have come out just great. The box usually has instructions on the order to put your ingredients in (so follow that). Yeast first, then mix, then liquids on top. I've even set mine up for delayed baking & they came out well too. Good luck!
