I think you've hit the nail on the head. Frost-free freezers thaw every few hours to keep the frost from forming. Makes ice cream have ice crystals too, yuck. I'd keep bread a non-frost-free freezer and see if that helps?
We love our Sunbeam Breadmaker -- almost too much, yum:

1.5 loaf size looks the most like a loaf of bread... 2 pound loaf size is extremely tall and I can't figure out how to cut it without a slice being about 8 inches tall! We got for $35 but the price has gone up?
