MarcatoAtlas 150 blue, Aluminium

While it may be a little more expensive than some other brands, this is a really good quality product that feels like it will last a long time (but somewhat like a gremlin, it must never be washed with water! This doesn't matter though because it never really gets 'dirty' as such).In-case it's not clear, the product does come with both a wider tagliatelle style cutter and a narrower spaghetti sized cutter (in one), which is removable and can be replaced by other attachments if you can find where to purchase them.The rollers are smooth and the cutters slice through the dough like a knife through butter. Just looking at it you can see what they mean with the 'wellness' branding in that the metal isn't the kind to leave deposits in your food.The red casing is a little darker than it may appear on screen, not the bright red I was expecting, but the finish is still exquisite to look at and it is well built and sturdy.The clamp is strong and doesn't move at-all, in fact I kept lifting the worktop off the cupboard when rolling, should probably sort the kitchen out a bit.The basic recipe isn't particularly comprehensive if you've never made pasta, although in many ways it's much simpler and more enjoyable than I expected. You can find a hundred recipes and they'll all be slightly different, but the gist of it is the same, as long as your dough is not too dry and not too wet it will roll and cut fine. (from my limited experience one egg per 100g strong white bread flour is just right). The first time I made pasta I put 3 eggs in 400g and it was really too dry and kept getting holes when I was rolling, but it still worked out ok (albeit I had muscle ache for days afterwards), the next time worked out so much better with the extra egg and rolling was far quicker.If you ever roll the rollers backwards with a bit of pasta in there, you will probably get a bit of pasta inside between the casing and the rollers which will be a hassle to get out, but this will be the case with any roller I would think.

Really lovely piece of essential kitchen equipment. Super sturdy when clamped down and easy to crank and turn. An absolute joy to work with, the shape of the rollers and their surrounds makes to pasta stay in line and shape when being fed into the machine. Cleaning was a cinch, we just used a skewer and it turned out well. Be sure to flour the surface of the dough to prevent it sticking to itself. 10/10 would buy again, and would buy more attachments in future except the pasta package is perfect as is!

So shiny, sturdy, easy to use, easy to clean.I love it.Did I mention it's sooo shiny!

I bought this machine more in hope than expectation. I wouldn't consider myself much more than a dabbler in things culinary. I fancied the idea of making my own pasta but wasn't sure if I'd be able to. I did a little bit of research on pasta doughs and picked up some tips about keeping the dough away from the air etc. Armed with this knowledge off I went to make pasta. What a brilliant success :). The best part was the way the kids joined in. Feeding the pasta through the rollers would have been a bit finicky without the aid of my daughter who cranked the handle. If you are making pasta on your own consider buying the additional motor to drive the machine. The machine looks great, functioned perfectly and was well built. We had great fun making and eating our own pasta.

After only ordering the machine yesterday morning, I have just received it today! Fast delivery! Although, I havent used it yet, the silver logo was missing and I found it in the bottom of the box but Ive glued it back on and when I turn the handle, it makes a ticking noise at a certain point continuously so yet to find out if this is normal or not. The machine had been put in the box upside down which cause the silver logo to come off also there was hardly any paper inside the box to support it from moving around which means it would have been moving around alot which could have caused the two faults. Box was to big and not enough support inside. It does look good though. Have just spoken Amazon and they told me to order a new one (which I did) and I will receive in the morning! (its now just after 6pm! great fast service mind!)and Yodel are picking up the other one tomorrow as well and to refund me. Fingers crossed this one is OK! I know I will love this item regardless and with being Italian, it will be a staple in my home! OK...received the second one and this was also upside down in the box like the first one (why they put it in upside down I will never know!) so I knew before I opened it that the silver logo would be off, and it was, but just glued it back on again. Keeping this one as it seems fine but not making pasta with it for another month when the husband is back from work.

The media could not be loaded.  I purchased this machine as I made the mistake of buying a way cheaper machine that ended up being a disaster. I’m new to making pasta but this machine makes it effortless. I would highly recommended!

Absolutely love this machine use for clay runs clay smoothly

Marcato have changed the size of the hole for the crank but it only works on the cutter attachment. You have to get a 2nd crank which sort of fits, but it isn't included in the box.

The media could not be loaded.  This manual pasta maker is absolutely well-constructed. It’s elegant, cleans easily, and is truly one of those items that does one thing very very well.It’s pretty intuitive to roll pasta with this, but if you get stuck, there are YouTube tutorials with excellent tips and how-to’s.

A entrega foi muito rápida. A máquina tem se demonstrado perfeita. A limpeza dos cilindros de corte demanda mais atenção, mas é muito fácil. Encontrei as dicas no youtube de como proceder nessa limpeza.

Muito fácil de usar. Ótimo acabamento. Eu nunca fiz macarrão caseiro antes e este foi o resultado da foto. Fiquei animada para comprar outros acessórios.
