Amazon.com Review
Looking to impress that special someone in your life? What better way than with homemade pasta. Villaware, a tradition of classic Italian kitchenware since 1906, provides the tools that make it easy. The Al Dente pasta machine, made of heavyweight chrome steel, is great for rolling dough and has a double-sided, 6-inch-wide blade for cutting spaghetti or fettuccine. The steel rollers are adjustable for kneading and there are seven thickness settings to accommodate individual preferences. Its manually controlled crank offers exceptional control, and a removable cutter head makes cleanup simple, while measuring only 6 inches wide--so you won't have to give up much counter space. The only drawback is that after tasting fresh, homemade pasta, it's hard to go back to the packaged kind. This easy-to-use pasta machine provides a great way to enjoy pasta just like they do in Italy. So pour that glass of red wine, toss a green salad, take the garlic bread out of the oven, and be ready to wow family and friends with a favorite pasta dish. Optional accessories are available for making angel hair, trenette, spaghetti, lasagnette, lasagna, and ravioli. Villaware makes it possible for anyone to make pasta that looks and tastes like it was made by the pros. Directions and a recipe book are also included to help you get started. This pasta machine carries a one-year warranty. --Catie Unger

We got this pasta maker about a week ago . So far we have used it twice.My wife simply loves it! She used to make pasta by hand , but this little machine simply makes the job so much easier, and faster.

I almost didn't buy this pasta machine because it had what looked like a scathingly bad review - but after reading said review more closely, I realized I should probably ignore it.
And I was right. This is a great little machine! I had been making pasta on my own for a little while, using only my rolling pin and and a knife, prior to ordering. This makes it so much easier. I rolled a bit of scrap dough through it to work out the machine oil, as suggested - and I highly recommend doing so.
Since then I haven't looked back. I can mix up one egg's worth of pasta dough anytime I want and roll out a great batch of noodles. It hasn't given me a lick of trouble - stays at the thickness I set, rolls smoothly, dough doesn't stick, cleans up quickly and I'm off to cook my pasta. I love it!
Fantastic pasta maker! March 30, 2008

It's simple and easy to use, and makes terrific pasta! The clean up is fast, and it is very well made. You get to control what goes into your pasta too. My wife and I are very pleased with this machine, and we have a lot of fun making our own noodles.

Initially, I was quite frustrated trying to get the roller to work. The dough kept tearing and it was impossible to get strips that were long enough. However, after some experimentation, I found it was easier to make long ropes of dough, flatten them by hand to 1/4 inch thickness, and then put them through the roller, instead of cutting 1/4 inch thick slices as the instructions recommend. As soon as I figured that out, I was quite happy with the results.
To reiterate what a previous reviewer said, however: Don't waste your time with the ravioli attachment. It's WAY more trouble than it's worth. A ravioli stamp produces better results, and is much easier to use.
