Summary: Makes rolling out pasta 100 times easier!
Comment: I have an Imperia pasta maker, which I love, and use all the time. I haven't bought dried pasta in months. There were some annoying problems with it though, such as: 1) clamping it to the side of the table, as it left gouges underneath and the table moved around as I cranked, 2) how long it took, and how much elbow-grease, to crank out the pasta strips, 3) how the crank handle doesn't attach, it just sets inside the slot and continually falls out, and 4) having only one hand to guide the pasta strip through the rollers or cutters.

This motor solves ALL those problems! With the motor, you can set the machine directly on your countertop and just go to town. It takes literally moments to crank out a strip. I just leave the motor running, fold the strip over, lower the width dial and slide it through again until I have the perfect width. Having two hands to guide it through at the top, and catch it beneath, is a huge help. And it sure saves on the amount of effort -- no more do I end up sweaty and out of breath! (Although I must admit, my right arm was getting rather buff.)

I know it's expensive in comparison to the machine, but believe me when I tell you it's worth it. Once you've mastered the art of making pasta strips (getting the dough consistency right, etc.) this will make your pasta machine as much a part of your kitchen as your coffee maker or toaster, it's that much easier.

More Reviews For toothsome texture and rich flavor nothing beats fresh homemade pasta. If you find you have relegated your manual pasta machine to a dark corner because it's simply too time-consuming and arduous to crank pasta through by hand, perhaps this little machine is just what you need. The other perk is that you can now operate the pasta maker without a clamp so it can be centered on your work space, making the process much more convenient.
