Perfect for polymer clay!I already owned the Norpro pasta machine motor, but it would not fit my other pasta machines. This machine was a great value, and of course, the motor fits perfectly and works like a dream. Great buy!

Gets the job done.This certainly gets the job done but honestly admit that I had spent the extra $30-40 for a nicer machine. But, it does the job. My biggest complaints are really about the design of the machine.The first design flaw is in the handle design. The handle often comes out of the machine when it is being cranked and the handle needs to be angled more so that the machine can be used in different ways. The way the handle is designed right now it REQUIRES you to have a counter top that allows the handle to go off of the right hand side so that the handle can be turned by your right hand. (The handle extends too low basically). I only have a countertop that allows for a lefty, so it has been a bit challenging in that respect. Also, the plastic on the handle is cheaply made. It came apart the first time I used it. But, with a little bit of glue it went back together just fine. If the handle was angled away from the machine more it would allow for a more versatile setup.My second design comment is the design of the clamp. It really isn’t that effective and I’m frankly disappointed with it. It doesn’t keep the machine in place securely, it doesn’t ‘fasten’ into the machine beyond a slight groove in the clamp and honestly… it’s not that great. It needs to be fixed.My third design comment is one that is actually prevalent in many of the nicer and more expensive models too. The rollers are encased almost completely and that’s a sanitation problem. I didn’t have anyone teach me how to make pasta and I admit that I still struggle with rolling the dough. I can tell that part of the problem is the machine and part of it is getting the right dough consistency. If your dough isn’t the right consistency it will stick to the rollers and it will get caught up inside the encasement. If the encasement were more of a shield (not completely closed), it would allow the user to clean them more efficiently. I know that part of the problem is me, but this is a serious design flaw in terms of keeping things sanitary.I’m giving this product a 3/5. It gets the job done, but it has problems too.

Works like a charm…if you have the dough at the right cosistancy….Works like a charm..if you use it with repect. I have used it to make many noodles (remember…the dough has to ‘rest’ for a while for it to be ready to use, I cut the dough into comfortable sized pieces (about the sixe of a 2 to 21/2 inch ball), and keep them in a small bowl, with a loger bowl inverted over it, until I am ready for the next process. The dough rolls well if the constancy of fresh PlayDough. After rolling out the dough, before cutting, I let it lie on the floured board to dry a bit before running through the cutters. Roll a ball of doush into strips…let dry while you roll the nest ball. Then cut the noodles from the first strips, turn the second set of rolled dough over and let it rest while you roll the nest ball of dough… that that dry/rest, while you cut the preceding strip. Remember to keep a shaker of flour handy to dust the strips as you work.I also use the noodle roller to roll out dough to cut for my pierogie press, and pie crust for individual sized pies.I admit to using my food processor to make the dough quickly, and avoid time consuming kneading.By the way…In Old English Cookbooks you will find recipes for “Duff”. Duff was spelled that way, and pronounced as spelled, just remember the way we pronounce “enough” as we look at Dough and Duff. Duff could be as simple as a flour/water paste used to seal the top of a crock for cooking, or the Duff used to make meat pies (penny pies, Pasties), the early “Take+away” in late 18th and 19th Century London street venders.I shudder to think of the Duff used for the penny pies baked by Mrs Lovitt with the assistance of Sweeney Todd.All in all, a nicely priced and very easy to use itme.It carries my personal seal of approval!

Directions missing from box- had to wing it and figure out on ownI recieved this and also the Fante’s Grandpa Dante’s Ravioli Form as Christmas present from husband. Here is it April 29 and I just now used it– I think I was waiting for a day when I would have the ‘time’ and be able to sit and just ‘enjoy’ the pasta making process. Well with busy lives I guess that day will never come– so I decided to open up this present and start to enjoy it (4 months after the fact!!)Very disapointed that my instructions and recipes were missing! Brand new sealed box and they were not in the box. Also directions missing from the Fante’s Grandpa Dante’s Ravioli Form — not sure if coincidence or what but both were bought off Amazon.com.So here I am pasta dough has been made and my ravioli filling has been made — I am ready to go and there are no instructions- I had to just wing it and not sure what I pulled and turned and adjusted but after a few tries I think I got this machine going– and I am going to rate it just as being ‘okay’If I had directions and knew what lever was what I might rate it different but dissapointed that two items which I recieved for Christmas 4 months ago– both brand new and never opened were missing the instructions.Now I need to try and contact vendors for instructions– what a pain!!the dough recipe I used from internet and my own cheese filling recipe which I use for lasagna were fantastic and I will have to say after a few hours of putzing with no instructions my ravioli turned out good- maybe next time with instructions they will look prettier. Anxious to try this again

good for beginners and occasional pasta makersA good device if you were just starting out in experimenting with making your own pastas, pierogies, or what have you that has a dish that benefits from you making your own pasta. It does have a bit of a learning curve to it however, so I highly recommend those who are interested in costume making watch a few YouTube videos to get an idea of what you are really in for. Case in point, the first time I made noodles with these they kept falling apart even though I was following you folding instructions for the pasta precisely. I went online and found that the problem was that the recipe called for salt, never add salt to any recipe that is intended for use in the pasta maker as salt slows the dehydration rate.My only complaint about this model, is that the crank handle has a tendency to fall out absurd Lee usually. That’s probably because there is no locking mechanism for the crank so either keep your feet well away from the edge where the crank is likely to fall, or when you stop cranking give it a quick shoved back into the unit, your toes will think me for that advice. Trust me.

Makes Delicious Pasta!It’s so easy to use and the results are fantastic. I’ve had mine for a month or two and it works as it should.I have to open the kitchen drawer to clamp it onto the counter, so you may have to get creative too. It’s adjustable though I don’t see why it wouldn’t be able to clamp onto any regular table top if your counter doesn’t work.The crank does fall out if you aren’t careful, but you just pop it back in. The gear works fine.It did take running a lot of dough through the machine in order to get all the grease and metal bits out, but we got it taken care of.No one has ever gotten metal or grease in their food!Cleaning it is challenging, but that’s the nature of pasta makers. I just brush mine out with a hard bristle brush and run a few paper towels doused olive oil through the machine.

Surprisingly well made!This machine is pretty heavy, which to me in a world of plastic feels like quality — All metal except for the plastic handle on the crank. It took me a while to figure out the correct dryness of the pasta, but once I’d run some through the machine I became pretty efficient at it. I have not been able to get the vermicelli blade to cut the pasta (it all comes out stuck together) but I’m more of a fettuccine person anyway and was able to get a decent result from that blade. I need to do more research and practice but over all I’m happy with the machine. The clamp fits perfectly on my granite counter top. I’d looked at pasta machines in the past, even when we were in Italy, and they were all expensive. This one is a good deal for the price.I’m looking forward to making egg noodles for soups this winter. Last night’s pasta turned out fantastic!

Good purchase, rough edges on product quality.Received this very quickly – two days within ordering it. The box it was in was coming apart – some of the edges hadn’t been sealed too properly with the glue. I had to use packaging tape to reinforce it. It’s an easy tool to use, cleaning isn’t too difficult – except for the fettuccine/spaghetti components – the manual shows cleaning them with a brush. The brush should have been provided and now at some point I’m going to have to swing by the hardware store to grab one.My two complaints – that damned handle keeps flying out. You have to be conscientious to keep pushing it back into the gear opening since as you turn it it will slowly slide out from the opening it is in. My other complaint has already been mentioned – which is that the brush to clean the fettuccine/spaghetti attachment is not included.Otherwise it works fine – it does an excellent job pressing and smoothing the dough and I haven’t run into any major issues with the fettuccine/spaghetti attachments. Other people have complained about the clamp but I haven’t had a problem with it – it’s kept my pasta maker GLUED to that countertop.

Simple and fun way to make pasta!This is my second Norpro Pasta Machine (gave one previously as a wedding gift)… These are amazing! If you don’t own a Kitchenaid or don’t want to invest the money into an expensive attachment, this gadget is for you. It hooks onto the counter or any sturdy enough table and set up takes less than two minutes. Making the pasta dough itself is a simple flour and egg recipe – I prefer to make ravioli than long noodles as I find the blades may not be as sharp as I’d like and I’m left pulling the strings of dough apart by hand.All in all, this is a fun activity to do with family or friends and is very easy as far as setup and clean up. I usually pull this out once a month or so and have truly enjoyed!

Lots of workI’m familiar with pasta being a lot of work. I’m fine with that, and I’m dedicated to making my own pasta, because the gluten-free varieties on the market aren’t all that great.I find using the pasta machine to be fun, this is a decent quality pasta machine, and you get the attachment for fettuccine and vermicelli. However, there is the issue of cleaning it.Before the first use, you have to remove the oil on the rollers, but you cannot wash it. That was a pain, and it took forever. Also, you cannot actually wash it. No water should ever touch the pasta machine. To me, that’s more than a little unhygienic. There is proper maintenance of wiping down the rollers, then coating them with a small layer of oil. I’m okay with that, but let’s just say that I’m glad pasta gets boiled.Bottom line: It gets 3 stars for being fun and generally easy to use, but high maintenance. Using it is straightforward, but be prepared to work, not only for your pasta, but also prepping and maintaining the machine.
