Having the Kitchenaid do all the cranking is great - and the Spaghetti maker actually makes ROUND spaghetti, not just tagliatini type little flat noodles.

NOTE for those that say the attachments turn and go around, read the instructions. YOU HAVE to insert if far enough into the mixer so that the little pin on the pasta maker fits into the notch near the tightening screw. IF you don't do that, it will go around and around.

The Ravioli maker was a surprise, it is manual, but I guess that makes sense, That is the one I haven't used yet.

I just got done eating raviolis made by this ravioli maker. Due to all the negative reviews I had some trepidation but I always make up my own mind using the products myself. This ravioli maker was E-A-S-Y. None of my raviolis came undone in the water. I do admit I only put 2 raviolis to boil for the 5 minutes as a test, they turned out fine so I threw the whole batch in the water. This machine is fabulous. I thinned the dough out to #5, pricked a hole in each ravioli and it came out delicious. Not a single one burst while cooking. I made a shrimp, cream cheese, ricotta, garlic, cracked pepper and sea salt filling. I added a little cottage cheese as it strings like mozzarella when hot. This is not my first time making pasta but it was my first time using the ravioli maker. I give this machine a 5.

For regular pasta, this set is a dream. The ravioli maker, though, is a total piece of junk. Different friends and I have attempted to make ravioli with it on four different occasions. It shreds the dough and wastes all the fillings. After I bought it, I went back to read the reviews and there were dozens of reviews attesting to the same problem, not a positive review among them for the ravioli maker. Wonder what happened to all those negative reviews?

For rolling out and cutting flat pasta, this is a great set. But, unless you need another door stop, don't order the set that includes the ravioli maker.
