   I bought this right after our Italy trip where we had a pasta making class and the instructor used a similar product. This one is nice and heavy and easy to use.

   I have wanted to make homemade pasta for years, I was a bit scared to do it and I didn't have the right machine. Something made me want it this year, maybe because I was overwhelmed with the idea of making pasta? I didn't even know if I liked fresh pasta. That box stuff is really good. Well, I bit the gun (actually my husband did since I ordered this on his behalf for me for Christmas) and thank goodness it happened because I don't know how I lived 29 years without ever having fresh pasta! It's awesome, a bit of flour, semolina, eggs, water if needed, do the knead thing, let it rest and then bring out your CucinaPro and make whatever you want! I think I'm going to get the ravioli maker because I have recently found out I love homemade ravioli too!

   I did some research on the net and this product seemed to be the best one available. I did read all the other reviews as well as watching a few videos on YouTube about using the product. It arrived today and I attached it easily to my table. The piece is VERY heavy duty! I made a basic dough, approximately 2 eggs to 2 cups of flour. However, realize that the amount of flour used is going to vary depending on all sorts of factors, humidity, size of the eggs, type of flour, altitude, etc. Make about 1/2 the flour into a well and pour the beaten eggs into it. Then just keep working flour in until it will no longer absorb any more. Now, wrap it in cling wrap and let it rest for an hour or so. If you have never made noodles before, I recommend making them a couple times at least by hand so that you know the right consistency for the dough. After an hour, work the dough in your hands and make sure it is not sticky, if it is, add more flour. Cut the recipe in half and flatten the ball into a strip about 2 inches wide, then put it through the machine. I did it on all thicknesses, then ran it through the cutters. Then rolled the other half and sent it through the spaghetti cutter to make sure everything was clean.

   If you make your pasta dough properly this pasta maker works perfectly. But if you do what I did on my first attempt and try to feed too wet dough through it…..welcome to nightmare land. There is no way to disassemble it without hand tools. I did not do that, because all my life I have always found taking something apart, is waaaay easier than putting it back together. So I had to let the wet dough harden, and then use a butter knife to chip out the dry chunks, then start again. My bad, but it would have been much easier to try again sooner if it was easier to disassemble this thing to clean it out.

   First time using this table top pasta roller. The pasta for my raviolis came out PERFECT!!! Just the right consistency. They were a hit. Made mushroom ravioli with a mushroom cream sauce. And a butternut squash ravioli with a brown butter and sage sauce. Thank you very much for making my job easier.

   I was debating between this pasta machine and the other well known Made in Italy brand. I know this chef from Italy and I asked him for his recommendation and it was the Imperia. I bought it without hesitation and I am glad I did. I love this machine. I make fresh pasta every weekend now and I am getting better and better. This machine is very well made and I don't have any problems with it at all.

   The press works well. The unit is pretty durable for home use and far easier than manual rolling dough. There are a variety of attachments but really for home use, hand cutting different widths is easy.

   I wish I had ventured into the world of fresh pasta years ago. My only issue with this machine is I find it difficult to turn the thickness dial with flour on my fingers. I imagine people with arthritis would struggle as well.

   I have used this pasta machine several times and I am thrilled with the product it produces. This is easy to assemble, use and then clean. The booklet comes with recipes for pasta that call for flour other than AP, but since that is all I had, that is what I used. The finished product was delicious!
