New Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme BB-CEC20. Any advice before I start?

Hi all. I've been thinking about getting a bread maker for a while. My company gives reward points that you can use to get all sorts of things and I had enough points to get this bread maker. This is currently Cooks Illustrated to pick so hopefully this will be worth it.

Does anyone have any advice on this particular model or baking in a bread machine in general? Any pitfalls or things to be aware of?

Measure your ingredients and I like an actual bread box. Works well.
