[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine makes pasta in a breeze. I set it up and prepare the pasta while I wait for the water to boil, this is how easy and fast it is! It is the perfect size for a family of 3-4, otherwise you have to make two batches. It is easy to clean and most parts are dishwasher safe. I wish there were more shapes of pasta or even the cookie shapes like the bigger model.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how easy it is to make fresh pasta and how cool it is to test out new ingredients. This thing is amazing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It took a couple of times to get the pasta correct. I believe outside environment makes a difference on using less or more liquid. But it’s perfect now.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Machine very effective and easy to use but the shapes are all too thick which gives flourish tasting pasta

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So easy to use, after reading the directions well! I’m so glad I have this. I’ve made lasagna noodles, Spaghetti noodles they all have turned out delicious!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this pasta maker on a weekly basis. The machine is easy to use once you get the amount of flour to egg (or water) ratio right. One cup = 1 + 1/2 cups of flour. The directions say one cup, but it’s not enough flour. I tried 2 cups and the weight is wrong and the machine calls for more flour and won’t start spinning.
Getting the machine to spin too a bit of patience. If the flour weight isn’t right, you have to recalibrate the machine by taking the flour out. So I dump 3 cups of flour in first (for two servings). Force spinning it does not alway work for me, so it’s a delicate process.
Overall, I like the machine. I wish there was an option to turn the auto weigh function off.
