Messy but fun to use
By Mary from Claremont, CA
On January 13, 2011:
I'd never made pasta before, and it was easier and more fun than I thought with this machine. Two small complaints: One, the "Marcato" logo was just glued on, and the first time I used the machine, it got stuck on a piece of dough and fell off. Two: it is a serious pain to clean out the bits of dough after using -- it would be nice if they gave you a tool for that. I ended up using a wooden kebab skewer.
