Marcato Atlas Drive Motor, Made in Italy, Powers Pasta Machines and Attachments, Silver

This thing makes pasta and it's easy to do. My kitchen counter doesn't hold the pasta machine due to the setbacks under the counter that defeat the clamp. I am not Vishnu with 8 arms so I can't hold the machine, crank it, feed the pasta and guide it out. No clamp needed for the machine with the motor and it works smoothly, easily transferring from roll out to one of the cutting options. A recent national review said this and the matching pasta machine were not Rolls Royce models but were like a Camry - works every time and gets the job done reliably. I agree.

I would order this again in a heartbeat. It is a bit louder than I expected but still love it.

Why would anyone in the United State buy this Atlas Drive Motor with 240v and a power cord for 240v??? I can't believe Amazon would allow them to sell this unit in the U.S. I emailed the supply twice and received absolutely no response from them. I called Amazon and they said they cannot do anything about this. So I asked Amazon if they could send another unit and could the shipping Dept. please check to see if has a 120v power supply (like what is pictured in the ad). NO SUCH LUCK! I received a second 240v unit. This is a complete mess. Now I have to ship both back.

You will never go back to hand cranking your pasta once you start using this! Made my pasta so much faster and easier. Love having 2 hands to handle the dough while processing it through the pasta maker. Worth every penny.

I bought the Atlas pasta roller when I lived in Italy. My landlady showed me the difference between store-bought and fresh pasta, plus all the variations. In Italy everything is 220 volts, and I bought the 220v motor. Moving back to the States meant I couldn't use the 220v motor and had to hand-crank the pasta roller, which is a pain. The 120v motor is strong, but not too quiet. I don't care, I just want great pasta without the work of hand-rolling. I haven't bought pasta in 15 years, the roller and motors are indestructible. A good companion is "The Silver Spoon" cookbook, over 1000 pages, in print only in Italian for 50 years and now in English, about $32. Buon mangiare.

Speeds up polymer clay rolling by orders of magnitude. Works great. But high pitch whine required ear plugs if used for more than a few seconds or minutes.

I got what I wanted but the picture is false. It's a European power cord that come with it. If you want to use it you'll will need a European to US adapter or buy a IEC C7 2.5A 250V cord.

USED FOR FIRST TIME TODAY. I AM SO PLEASED. I WILL BE USING THIS FREQUENTLY IN FUTURE. DID A RECIPE OF PASTA IN LESS THAN HALF THE TIME AND IT WAS SO THIN AND TENDER. STAYED IN PLACE WITHOUT BEING ATTACHED TO COUNTER,

Fits my 180 slide Atlas pasta maker beautifully. Genuine product as described. Came with Australian plug.

Ürün çok güzel kaliteli işini çok güzel yapıyor. Yaklaşık 2 yıllık kullanımdan sonra benim fikrim şu. 300- 500 - 700 gr hamur için hiç gerek yok el ile çevirmeye devam edin ama bir kilo ve üzeri için alın çok ta rahat edersiniz

It looks & feels very well made. It works excellent with the atlas & makes pasta making very easy.

Parfait avec ma machine à pâtes ATLAS 150. Je m'en sers surtout pour mes travaux manuels, le travail des pâtes polymères de type FIMO, CERNIT, PARDO, et redoutablement efficace pour rendre les pâtes plus malléables. Astuce, j'ai branché un interrupteur à pied (type pédale machine à coudre), cela me permet de travailler plus facilement avec mes deux mains. Tout est nickel, à recommander.

Dieser Motor erleichtert mir die Arbeit sehr. Es geht viel schneller und macht somit auch gleich mehr Spaß. Wenn der Teig etwas dicker eingelegt wird, merkt man, dass der Motor etwas arbeiten muss, aber er schafft es. Nur die Lautstärke ist wirklich laut. Aber das muss man halt in Kauf nehmen. Schöner gefunden hätte ich noch, wenn das Gehäuse aus Metall und nicht aus Kunststoff gewesen wäre. Der Preis ist halt schon ziemlich hoch für den Motor. Wer das nur gelegentlich nutzt, für den wohl zu teuer. Lohnt sich erst für regelmäßiges Benutzen
