Dried pasta is good. Fresh pasta is extraordinary. The techniques are not difficult and the result is well worth it. Press a ball of dough through two rollers to form a uniformly thin sheet for slicing into fettuccine or noodles. If you don't want to crank by hand there is an electric motor attachment available.
Works Like A Charm I really wanted a metal manual pasta machine, but was discouraged as I read details about other machines. I finally opted for the Atlas 150 - it was reasonably-priced, made in Italy, and had garnered positive reviews.
I am posting because I want to tell you that this machine lived up to its billing. It is easy to use, convenient, and a cinch to clean. My wife (she's half Italian) and I previously made pasta by hand. Thanks to this machine, our process has been signficantly reduced. We are eating fresh pasta more frequently, and the pasta it produces--if working with a reliable recipe (which we do)--garners compliments at our dinner parties.
I recommend that you have two people to work with the dough as you crank it through the machine. Trust me, it will make your life easier. Plus you can enjoy conversation and time spent with your partner.
I bought this machine around Thanksgiving (2006). Absolutely no regrets. Highly recommended!

Love it I love gnocchi and with this machine it is a snap.My aunt has one she bought 20 years ago and it still works great. Just make sure you follow the recipe included with the machine. Make sure you don't have sticky dough or I promise you will never want to try it again. I will be buying more of these to give to our daughters.
