MARCATO Made in Italy Atlas 150 Classic Manual Pasta Maker Machine, Chrome Steel with Black Hand Crank. Makes Lasagna, Fettuccine & Tagliolini.

There isn't much I can add that hasn't already been said by other reviewers about the Marcato Atlas Wellness 150 Pasta Maker. I purchased it based on the consistently excellent reviews and the fact that cooking schools use this model. I'm an experienced home cook but have never tried to make my own pasta. When I decided to take the plunge, I found that the Marcato Atlas is a "lifetime purchase", similar to buying a Le Creuset or cast iron piece of cookware. I chose the stainless model and I'm impressed with the workmanship. The only thing that would appear to be vulnerable to wear is the thickness dial for rolling the dough, but just about every reviewer on Amazon has reported that it has never broken. I made my first fettuccine last night using a basic recipe I found at Allrecipes and the pasta was top notch and very easy to do. The machine worked perfectly and made creating fresh pasta a breeze! My only mistake was not rolling the dough thin enough. Because of my naiveté in using a pasta maker, I used 3 as my final thickness and what I got was more like a Chinese noodle than Italian pasta. I now know that the thickness should be 7 before cutting it into strands. (On the other hand, I now know how to make a Chinese noodle for sesame sauce!) I am very pleased with this purchase. I know there are less expensive machines out there, and if you're unsure whether you'll really use a pasta maker over the long term, you might consider starting off with a less expensive brand rather than spending a lot of money on a Marcato. If you're someone who enjoys cooking, however, trust me that you'll love this pasta maker and it will change the way you look at pasta from here on out! From what I can see first hand, as well as cull from the many reviews that I've read, this is a solid piece of machinery that will last a very long time.

I’m Leary of cheap tools. The reviews I read basically said this is the reference pasta making appliance. Italy is synonymous with pasta, so it makes sense they would make a quality appliance. The machine is just beautiful in its simplicity. Heavy metal construction, this will last a lifetime. I imagine this is on every Italian brides gift list and she’ll hand it down to her grandchildren type quality. I am in the US, so we measure flour by volume rathe4 than weight. My first batch was one egg and just under 2/3 cup flour. Egg mixed with flour in the classic flour on the counter egg in the middle mix together. Makes a stiff, dry dough. Rested dough in a plastic bag (they say 20 minutes). I ran the dough through. Nothing stuck to the machine. Rolled out beautifully. Then cut some narrow, some wide. Again, nothing stuck. This is drop dead easy! I have made German Spaetzle for years. This pasta process is just as easy. There was no cleanup. Nothing stuck. I can’t even tell it was used. I can’t compare different machines having just bought this machine. However, works well, first time user has success, made by Italian company, has attachments, and is sturdy enough to last a lifetime. The machine is twice the cost of Chinese knockoffs. So what’s the extra $40 to you. Just buy this one, enjoy a quality tool that will last your lifetime and is a joy to use.

The MARCATO Made in Italy Atlas 150 Classic Manual Pasta Maker is impressively well made. It’s solid, heavy, and feels like it’s built to last. The adjustment dial is precise, and the hand crank turns smoothly even with thicker dough. It produces consistent pasta sheets with clean edges and uniform thickness, making it easy to create a variety of pasta styles. Cleanup is simple as long as you follow the recommended method and let any dough dry before brushing it off. Overall, this is an excellent manual pasta maker that feels professional-grade and performs exactly as expected. Highly recommended for anyone serious about making fresh pasta at home.

I received my new pasta machine yesterday and tonight I made my first ever homemade pasta. Out of the box the unit seems rugged and heavy. It comes with the handle and a cutter for fettuccine and spaghetti. I started by checking for some you tube videos using the machine, then set about making my first batch. Everything I read said the consistency of the dough and its "dryness" are the key to making good pasta. The dough should stick together, but not stick to anything else is the crux of what I read. I started using my small food processor with the hookie thing in the bottom. I added about a cup and a half of all-purpose flour. Then I beat three jumbo eggs with a teaspoon of olive oil. I added half the egg mix to the flour and pulsed until mixed. The dough looked too powdery so I added some more egg mix. The second test the dough formed a nice ball and didn't stick, but brilliant me decided to add a little more egg mix. Now the dough was very sticky, oops too wet. So I had to add some more flour to get back to where I was. My take home point from this is stop early, its much easier to add egg then to add flour. I balled up the dough in saran wrap and let it sit for a bit. I decided to use the pasta roller for the kneading. I attached it to the edge of my counter top using the supplied clamp. It helped to open the drawer underneath to get more room on the lip for the clamp to grab. I set the machine at 0, the widest width. I formed the dough into a thick slab and fed it into the machine. Now I had some big doubts. The dough came out stringy and tore in several places. But after several passes through the machine it finally looked like pasta dough. I then started dialing down the thickness one step at a time until I got to 6 on the dial. I was able to easily feed the dough through while also turning the crank. The dough was now in a long sheet that I cut into convenient lengths and then fed through the fettuccine blades and voila perfect fettuccine! I hung the noodles on the drying rack, but to be honest I don't think I really needed the rack, I could have just dumped the noodles in the boiling water. The machine remained firmly in place throughout my cranking and remained spotlessly clean afterwards, requiring just a quick wipe down with a kitchen towel.

I'd been looking at making fresh pasta for quite some time, and considered purchasing a Kitchenaid stand mixer (and all the very expensive pasta attachments) as well as hand-crank models that were decidedly less expensive, but perhaps required a bit more work. Thankfully, with the Marcato Atlas pasta machine, I found a reasonably-priced, very simple to use, overall excellent product that I'm very satisfied with! Best of all, I didn't need to invest in a new Kitchenaid stand mixer to make fresh pasta! I've never made fresh pasta before in my life, and I was most concerned about mixing the dough properly, which will be anyone's main concern in utilizing this roller to the fullest extent. My first time attempting to do this I was able to make the dough a fairly good consistency, but upon cutting the noodles (fettuccine was the first cutter used), I found they all stuck together too much during the nesting process. Not understanding I should have floured them more, I kneaded the dough back together and ran through the machine a second time. The second time went MUCH quicker, as I already felt like I had a handle on how the machine works, the number of times to move the pasta through, and the speed at which to do so. This time I hung the pasta over a tupperware container and had fresh pasta for dinner only minutes later! I would highly recommend this machine to others who are in a similar situation as myself. If you are able to mix dough either by hand or in a food processor (as I did) and get a good consistency, you will have consistently good pasta as well. One strange thing to note is that in the product description, this machine notes that it cuts spaghetti, fettuccine, flat dough sheets, and tagliolini. The actual cutter attachments that come with the machine are fettuccine and tagliolini, and you can also roll flat sheets; the spaghetti attachment is not included in the machine. We found the fettuccine a perfect thickness (5 is what the booklet recommended), and I'm sure by playing around a bit with the thicknesses (particularly on the tagliolini side), you could cut a pasta to your liking. I thought I would point that out for other customers considering this machine, in case they want to purchase the spaghetti cutter attachment alongside the machine.

For a simple machine, this is far from simple. With the enclosed instructions you more than likely end up searching the internet for additional information. Once you tackle that issue, you will need to continue to find out how to care and maintain the machine. Not clear in the instructions. The cleaning? You have to keep in mind, NO dishwasher, NO water. Removing the flour and stuck on pasta will require a small pick (toothpicks won't do it). Recommendation, and I haven 't tried it yet, but they say you can use "play-do" to 'attract' the residue and keep the rollers clean. Once I have a chance to try that I will update. The machine? Just getting into pasta making and not knowing a great deal of what is needed and what is not, this machine is certainly in the need category, and certainly one of the best on the market. For use, making pasta sheets, simplicity of use, function, and the list goes on. Just starting or classical chef, this machine will cover all needed bases. Although there is a good selection of add-ons for various pastas, what comes standard with this machine will get you a jump on making quality pastas. Well worth the effort and purchase. High quality in a small package. Small than what the pictures allude to, but that is not a deal breaker. Compact and easily stored. If you are wondering why four stars instead of five? A messy process and a lot of time to clean it. But it is worth it.

High quality pasta machine. I recently attended a pasta making course with an Italian chef while visiting Florence. This is the model machine he uses and recommends. Produces beautiful results.

This pasta maker/roller came well packaged with instructions included. I yook it apart(not shown in video), and this one does come with the metal gears NOt the plastic gears thankfully. There have been no issues so far. The hand crank works great and it actually very easy to turn. It is lightweight, and the included table clamp works great(be sure to not overtigten as to not mess up your table or counter top). The pasta rolls out smoothly(use Semolina flour when going to different thicknesses to help keep pasta from sticking). All in all a solid product so far. Attatched is my unboxing video(sorry I haven’t done an unboxing video in a good while), that shows the unit and attatchments. Hoghly recommended, and I would but from this seller again. ***SEE VIDEO FOR A DEMO ON HOW TO REMOVE THE RODS AND LITTLE SCRAPER PIECES TO BETTER GET THEM CLEANED*** As stated in the intruction manual, do NOT run the main unit in the dishwasher or soak in water. Use a damp cloth to clean the cutting blades(or a cleaning brush. Wear gloves if tou want to help keep yourself from getting cut). Easy to use. Be sure to heavily flour your pasta after it has rested for 30-60 minutes as you roll it through the machine to help prevent the pasta from sticking everywhere.

Marcato Atlas Pasta Machine is truly the best thing if you love making pasta right from scratch. Rolling the dough through it a few times gets a smooth finish and the setting for having different thickness helps a lot when the mood shifts from ravioli to fettuccine or spaghetti.

🔎 Overview 🔍 If I could recommend a better manual hand crank pasta machine, I would. But the truth is I can't. I can't find another pasta maker out there that has this level of support, this many attachments, backed with a 10-year warranty, and a near perfect design. All of this packed in a beautiful Italian design with great heritage. It's the Ferarri of pasta makers and it makes the best shaped noodles. This is the machine you want. This is the machine you need. ✅ Pros ✅ - Multiple attachment head options to make all sorts of noodle styles. I even made udon noodles with this! - Beautiful Italian design with a clean stainless steel finish - 10-year warranty! Who does that? - Smooth crank and cutters that don't eat up dough - Easily cleaned with a damp cloth and a brush ❌ Cons ❌ - Takes a bit of getting used to and sometimes will take a bit of strength depending on the type of noodle you are cranking! 📝 Overall 📝 5/5 ⭐️'s to Marcato! I will happily purchase this again once my 10-year warranty is up! The machine is beautiful, runs smooth, easily cleaned, and makes pasta noodles like it was born for it. The price reflects the quality and the craftsmanship behind the product. I would recommend this to all my friends and family getting into pasta making. I will never be buying pre-made pasta noodles again! At the time of review, the Marcato Atlas 150 Wellness is selling for $86.82 on sale!
