 Great Machine February 18, 2010
Wayne B. Lyons
I don't ordinarily write reviews but I felt compelled to share my experience with this machine with anyone looking to purchase a manual pasta machine. First off I am a Chef and restaurant owner and in years past have worked with a couple of pasta machines. In my opinion this little machine for the money is GREAT!. So far I've made approximately 10lbs of pasta and the finished product has been amazing. I'm looking forward to creating many more Specials with this machine.

 You're kidding, right? December 25, 2009

I will be brief, and brutally honest. This machine was purchased to resolve an illness/handicap with my mother. Her arthritis has gotten worse in her hands/elbow and I felt that a machine could help her with the custom holiday cooking.
From the pictures, the machine is actually tiny. Ofcourse it mentions "6 inches", but I would have imagined a more 'robust" appliance. It is built cheaply, and I am not sure if shipping made it slanted (like it was hit slightly).
I took others recommendations here to get the motor attachment (noisy, confusing instructions to attach, and wobbles like the gearing inside isn't aligned).
I am afraid to allow my 80+ yr old mother to try this machine so like a good son, I will make the dough and pasta for her. Atleast when this machine breaks (and it will), it was not more than $50 (with attachment and motor). For this holiday, my brother and father went ahead without her help and made the traditional ethnic foods.
I would love to see something heavier duty, wider (we all don't just make noodles) and durable. And hey, you do get what you pay for.
(Kudos to Amazon Customer Service for taking back a duplicate order!)
Works good for the home chef December 16, 2009

This machine works well. The price is GREAT (compared to the Atlas). Most important thing to remember, no matter what machine you are using, the dough must not be sticky. Yes, the handle does fall out when you are not paying attention, however I don't know of any model that doesn't fall out (even my mom's 70's era Atlas machine does that)
Overall: great price for the home chef.

I'm new to the pasta machine and I'm using it for polymer clay. Other than the handle falling off easily, it's worked out quite well for what I need. The price is really good and it sure beats trying to roll by hand!!
cheap gears August 18, 2009

I stripped the gears (for the rollers, not cutters) on this on the 3rd use. Total waste of my money. I know how to make pasta and use a pasta machine, if wimpy arms like mine can strip the gears, so can you. In good faith I called Pragotrade/ Weston to see if I could order new a gear but they will not sell them separately (I like fixing things instead of throwing them out).
Lesson: save the receipt or buy a more reputable brand, these are cheaply constructed.
