At about $5 per box it would take 800 boxes (about 8,000 matzahs) to break even. I only got 4,539 matzahs before mine broke down. Yes, it's convenient to not have to go to the store especially if you live in a rural area, but, hey, that's what Amazon is for. It's a bit of a pain to clean too. My advice, keep your hard earned dollars and wait at least until the price drops to below $2000.
