    4 out of 5 stars pretty good   July 24, 2010
    Veronica Lee (Fargo, ND USA)
    It works.
    You can get various degree of thickness but possible type of noodle setting is only two kind. Linguini flat wide and spaghetti round. If you want more variety then you've got to buy their extra component which they promptly tout in the brochure that come together.

    Tip:
    before you flat them out knead very well and always start with the thickest set. That makes dough much smoother and also makes lot easier for you.
    After you flat the dough, before you put it through the grid, make sure you put 'a lot of' flour on the dough. They tend to stick together when they come out. If you get a bunch of stuck together noodles, what's the point, right?
    It's not machine's fault, though.

    One complaint : the handle tend to fall out and hammer your toe very easily. I don't know how to improve it. They could've made it stayed more firmly but then wouldn't that have made it difficult to put it(the handle) in and out?
    This machine is already heavy enough so if you are making just a little noodle and don't want to bother you don't need to use the attach gear.
    I'd say you'll get what you want for the resonable price.



    3 out of 5 stars Can't Clean It   July 22, 2010
    Kat (Washington, D.C.)
    It certainly made pasta pretty good, but you can't clean it. The instructions say do not wash with water. After the first use, inevitably there was pasta stuck inside the machine - even though we used flour and everything to keep it from sticking. Those pieces dried and upon the next use they would mess up the new pasta going in. Some pieces were impossible to get out.

    Finally, about the 3rd day we owned it we noticed that it started to rust on the blades of the cutters. So we returned it and are looking for one that is cleanable.

    In addition, as noted by others, the handle doesn't fit very securely and it does keep falling out. It wasn't a deal-breaker though.



    4 out of 5 stars Nice pasta rolling machine   July 13, 2010
    Joanne (CA, USA)
    I haven't had this very long but I've already used it to make flat pasta for home made ravioli. It worked well...rolling the pasta out as thin or thick as I wanted it. I haven't used it yet for fettucini but the flat sheets came out great for ravioli. Since I have an old kitchen with an old counter, I wasn't able to attach it to the counter. I had to use my kitchen table. No problem...it still works, but I'd rather use it on the counter.


    5 out of 5 stars MOST Excellent!   May 23, 2010

    This pasta machine is easy to use - clean up is a snap and the price was right - what more could you ask for?? Oh, I have yet to have a problem with the handle falling out - it works great!


    2 out of 5 stars you get what you pay for   April 17, 2010

    I spent a number of hours looking over what pasta maker I wanted, but ended up going with this one basically for the price and the few good reviews. I figured the bad reviews were just people who had flukes. I was wrong. This machine looks like most any other pasta maker, but the fettuccini and spaghetti attachment is flimsy and broke the second time I used it. Fortunately, I'm good with putting things back together and was able to figure out what broke and put it all back together. However, it shouldn't have broken in the first place. The biggest problem is that it's only held together with 2 screws.

    Be sure to run a batch of pasta through it multiple times before your first true use to get all the grease out. I'm glad I knew enough to do that. There was plenty of grease.

    The rollers on my machine aren't lined up properly. The side closest to the thickness dial is closer than the side closest to the handle so it rolls the sheets of pasta out unevenly.

    Be sure that your coat your pasta with a thin layer of flour so it rolls nicely. Also, the cutter doesn't cut all the way through, so I spent a long time separating the individual noodles from each other.

    All said and done, it was a pain to do, but the end result was a very yummy dinner, even though it took me two tries to get it right.
