RE: Regal Kitchen Pro breadmaker - model K6725 - suddenly lost power - no longer powerful enough to turn the blade to mix and knead the bread

Hi - I have a Regal Kitchen Pro breadmaker (mdl K6725) that, up to now, I have loved. But suddenly, last week, it seemed to 'lose power,' it is no longer powerful enough to turn the blade to mix and knead the bread. I have had to discard one loaf that I let finish through baking (no good) and one batch of dough that was obviously not going to work. I used it all the time when I first got it, then it sat idle for quite awhile. I have, again, started using it for the last 3-4 months with no problem, until last week. I have also tried it in a different plug, but it didn't work any better. I really like this machine, is there any hope for it? Peace, Bev
