Canadians Buying Bread Machines

I've decided to buy a Zojirushi bread machine after spending a couple of months reading about different bread machines on the market and getting input from other celiacs.

I've done some comparison shopping this week and am passing the info along to others. Americans can get some better deals because some stores do not ship to Canada (eg. amazon .com has good prices but won't ship appliances to Canada). Other companies may charge very high prices for shipping to Canada (as much as $75 USD in some cases).

I'll list some of the sites I've found below. I do not have any connection to these companies or vendors and am not endorsing them in any way... just passing along what I found. Also, I have never purchased from any of these companies in the past, so I can't provide any information about the reliability of the companies.

The following price comparisons are all for the Zojirushi BBCC-X20 Home Bakery Supreme™ Bread Maker- all new models (since used could be contaminated with gluten of course :o) ).

(1) E-Bay Store: BigBuyCity

Open Original Shared Link

Price: $144.95 USD

Shipping & Handling $44.95 USD + Shipping Insurance $4.95 USD

(2) Kodiac Health

Open Original Shared Link

Price: $199.95 USD

$15 USD shipping to Canada (limited time offer)

(3) Galtak Houseware Ltd (located in Canada)

Open Original Shared Link

Price: $270 CAD

Free shipping to some parts of Canada- but there is a shipping surcharge to some postal codes which varies from $12 to $72 CAD.

PST charged to residents of Ontario.

(4) CityChef.ca Kitchenware

Price: $275.00 CAD

Free shipping within Canada (with some restrictions depending on geographic area- see website for more info).

(5) Golda's Kitchen - Kitchenware for Canadians

Open Original Shared Link

Price: $290 CAD

Shipping ????

Hope this helps any fellow Canadians who are planning to buy a Zojirushi for themselves.

I have a suggestion for you - I, too, live in Canada and close to the border (but in Niagara). Do you have any friends in Michigan area? Sometimes I ship things to a Buffalo friend from Amazon.

Thanks for the suggestion.... but we don't know anyone in Michigan near the Canadian border.

I went ahead and ordered one from BigBuyCity for $194.85 USD including shipping and insurance. Also, when I contacted them to ask about shipping costs, they offered to ship it by USPS air to save me $$$ on customs.

BTW... for anyone who does have friends in the states that they can ship things to- there are good prices from NewEgg.com as well as from amazon .com, plus the shipping charge from BigBuyCity is less if shipping to the states instead of Canada (they had 2 Zoji's remaining on their ebay store this week).

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
