5.0 out of 5 stars
a good product,
This review is from: Ronco Pasta Maker (Kitchen)
We had ours for 10 years. The plastic parts are easy to clean as the dried dough doesn't stick to this very slippery plastic material. It does have a lot of parts which need to be cleaned after every use. I don't know of any way around this however as any automatic pasta machine must have a lot of parts. The machine comes apart and reassembles easily in seconds. Buy a couple of stiff bottle brushes (of different sizes) and cleanup becomes pretty easy.
The dough recipe takes some experience to get right as it must not be too dry or too wet. Mistakes are easily fixed as the undesirable dough is simply put back into the machine and reprocessed as many times as you need until it comes out right. With experience, you can add a little water or flour to get the mixture exactly right as the machine mixes the dough. This takes a little practice. We used to use semolina flour ar first, but now we just use all-purpose flour. The pasta still tastes good. Do not think that making your own pasta is going to be as simple as opening a store-bought box of dried pasta. The work to make your own however is worth it. It tastes so good for those who are not lazy to take the trouble! If you like to cook, then you are not a lazy person, and will probably enjoy this machine. If you don't enjoy cooking, stay away from all pasta making machines.

Ronco PM1005WHGEN Popeil Automatic Pasta/Sausage Maker (Kitchen),

This review is from: Ronco Pasta Maker (Kitchen)
1. I just made my first pasta in my Ronco Popeil Pasta Maker, it turned out well, the first time I tried, and the pasta is delicious. All, I did was follow the Ronco instructions for making pasta, that came with the machine, and within minutes I had pasta that was exactly mixed as covered in the instructions and it was starting to come out of the machine, after I switched on the EXT buttons, again according to instructions. The machine, quickly went dead, and I thought here we go again, as I remember another reviewer had this same problem. However, in investigating the problem, I found all I had to do was make sure the mixing bin was pushed backed properly against the inside rear wall of the pasta maker, and this immediately solved the problem, as the machine instantly started to extrude pasta again. For my first pasta, I used the Fettuccine disc, and while the pasta was being extruded, I quickly boiled a pot of water to cook it in, using the induction burner I previously purchased from Amazon, and wrote some review comments about. So dinner for me tonight, will be a fresh salad of lettuce/tomato/onion with a spray of olive oil & venegar (using the Misto Sprayers, also previously purchased from Amazon.com), the Ronco pasta I made, along with a home made tomato based sauce with "Gourmet Spinach & Asiago Cheese Chicken Sausage", a glass of Merlot wine; and, for dessert, a dish of pear cobbler, home-made using pears from my own pear tree, a scoop of Vanilla ice cream (I have a lot of it, in the freezer) made in the Cusinart Ice Cream Maker I recently purchased from Amazon & reviewed online here, and some home brewed espresso, brewed in the auto Delonghi Espresso Maker I also purchased from Amazon.com and reviewed here, some time ago. Not bad, for the first pasta I have ever made & that I can quickly and easily make more of, as well as other types, whenever I want. Unlike, what some others have said, cleanup, for me is very fast and easy, as all I did was let the machine somewhat dry (it did so, within minutes at my house), and then I easily picked/brushed off any remaining pieces of dried pasta (threw them out as a treat for the birds, as I do with all my left over bread and dry grains/cereal type foods), and instead of even washing the parts in the dish washer as can be done, within all of five minutes or so, I had washed them by hand in soap/ water in the same pot I had used to boil the water for cooking the pasta.
2. I purchased my Ronco pasta maker from Amazon.com, just days ago after returning to Amazon, a pasta maker of another Brand/Manufacturer that didn't work out for me as I could not even get it to make any pasta at all, no matter what I did, and all according to that manufacturers supplied instructions. With the Ronco Pasta Maker, on the other hand, I had delicious pasta, ready to eat, within minutes, and using general purpose flour I ocassionally purchase in bulk from Sams Club, and so always have plenty of it on hand anyway, as it's the same I use in my Automatic Bread Maker and for general cooking. Thanks, to both Amazon and Ronco, gone are the days when I purchase my pasta from stores again; and, Amazon Prime, was a perfect way for me to purchase my Ronco Pasta Maker.
