up-dated model replaced my ancient model
What a difference! I have had the same exact machine for many years, except there was no clamp and no option for a motor. Now, I have both, and am back in the habit of making my own pasta with my own chickens' fresh eggs. No sweat or sore arms trying to hold down the machine as before. I also got the cute little rack on which to hang the properly cut pasta. It's like a little clothes line, and it is much more neat than drying them on parchment paper all over the kitchen.

23 years and still going strong
I received this as a wedding gift, and after 23 years it still looks and works as beautifully as the day I first tried it. Wish I could say the same about the bride (that's me) . . .

This machine is easy and fun to use
I was looking for a pasta machine that was well made and would last for a long time. After researching available models I decided to get the Atlas Marcato Pasta Machine, 150 and I really like it. It is easy to use and easy to clean. My 13 year old son and I have enjoyed making pasta together. He likes it so much he wants to use it every day. I know we will be using this machine for a long time. I highly recommend it for all pasta lovers.

Simple but perfectly functional
This is my second machine, lost the first in a move. It is simple to operate, durable, with no electric parts to go bad. Worked perfectly all the time! Many great meals were had because of this machine!

Excellent Addition To The Kitchen
This machine was given to me as a gift. I had never made pasta before but was excited about the possibilities it offered me. The first batch of pasta (after using about half the dough to clean the machine) turned out exceptional. It is very easy to use and makes great pasta. My kids help me when I make a new batch and it has become a family friendly event in the house. Not to mention that fresh pasta is so much better than the store bought brands. A must have for the kitchen!!!

First pasta maker
I liked this product. I have never made pasta before and was a bit worried about making my own pasta. But it turned out quite easy and the machine worked well. Easy to use and clean.

High Quality Pasta Machine
I was impressed by this machine from the moment I opened the box. It was heavy and appeared to be well made. I used a very good pasta machine at cooking school in Florence and hoped to find a similar one after getting back to The States. This is it. Easy to use and I expect it will last me forever. So much of what we buy today is simply junk. Not the case with this Atlas 150 pasta machine. It will definitely not disappoint.

This great machine will last your lifetime!
I purchased my Atlas Marcato Pasta Machine 150 in early 1970's for $39.50 with an extra attachment for $19.50. I still keep it in the original box that has the price stickers on it. I have used it hundreds of times and even taught a Pasta making class with it and loaned it to a number of students to try. It is so simple to make pasta dough with a food processor and then knead and cut it with the Atlas. It's fun to make in front of your dinner guests and they will think you're a genius for making your own tender pasta just like your grandma used to make noodles from scratch. It is is welll worth the money for the delight it will bring to you.
