5.0 out of 5 stars Works Like A Charm, December 29, 2006

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!

5.0 out of 5 stars So easy and so much fun!, June 17, 2006

I've read some horror stories about making pasta with a machine, so I was prepared for it to be a challenge. It couldn't have been easier! It rolled and cut effortlessly. The key must be the dough ... which can't be sticky or overly dry. I made mine with 3 eggs and 300 grams of bread flour in a Kitchenaid mixer with a dough hook. The dough was a little on the dry side so I added a few drops of water. Then I wrapped the dough in plastic wrap for 30 minutes and let it rest before rolling. There was absolutely NO clean-up needed for the machine when I was finished. Great fun!

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the money!, February 11, 2004

By A Customer

I just recently purchased this pasta maker after attempting to hand-roll my dough. As hand rolling took much time and caused hand cramps and ugly pasta, I decided to buy a machine. It's amazing! I don't think I'll ever go back to eating boxed pasta again! It looks better than pasta from a box and by making it myself, I can add whatever I like to the dough, such as fresh basil. Yum!
