does it work well with pasta attachment?

Yes! The pasta attachment is amazing! I've made all of the shapes, but especially like the rigatoni style. Just be sure to check the manual for speed needed, as each shape requires a different speed. Also, after using it often, the best way to clean up, is to set all the pieces out over night and let the extra pasta bits dry in the plate. They will brush right out in the morning.

Just received my set, it comes with 4 attachments of which one of these attachments makes two different types of pasta. One attachment makes spaghetti, one makes ravioli, one makes reginette, and the attachment with two makes fettuccine and tagliolini. It also states it makes lasagne on the box.

No, it wouldn't work, it will "rice" potatoes or eggs, but they come out so short/small/fine, noodles wouldn't stay together, better off with pasta maker

I while I did not try it for perogies, I did try a cheese ravioli and was unimpressed with the machine and mess. The pasta roller attachment is great and easy to use, but I found it easier to roll out my own filled pasta. Good luck.

I use this for both pasta and panettones. Works better than US all purpose for these. King Authur makes a good 00, but they don't really sell it over 2 pounds.

The dough needs to be soft to work with this pasta maker. Thick dough will not press through it. If the dough is the right consistency, this product works well.

I haven't tried it for grain, but it works for everything else. I made pasta sauce by grilling some tomatoes that were drizzled in olive oil and some spices, then pulsed them in the blender and it made a perfect sauce.

I used Ronzoni Smart Taste Thin Spagetti and was only able to fit two in. I've never had a problem with cooked pasta leaking through and the water drains nicely. I still love it, it hanging on a hook inside my cabinet taking up no space!!

It depends on your taste. Using the Marcato Pasta Machine I had really good results with the '6' setting.

I had to buy a new pasta machine because my Atlas did not fit with the Norpro Motor. I think I bought a Norpro pasta machine so they would be compatible. But it was worth it, because now I can make my homemade pasta in half the time and I can do it without my husband's help and no more sore arms.

I believe it will. There's an accessory drive on the front of the unit, and as long as KitchenAid makes a pasta attachment you should be in business.

No. It comes with 2 studs beside the drive shaft which fit into 2 holes beside the crankshaft hole on certain types of pasta machines. If your model of pasta machine does not have these holes you can't mount this motor. However if you are comfortable drilling metal, it is relativly easy to add them.

Yes, i own this pasta machine and yes it will make tube pasta like Pene although, I have not used the Pene attachment yet. The attachment is for regular Pene and not Pene Rigate. This machine works great and it gets easier the more you use it. Clean up isn't too bad either. I hope this help. Thanks,D.

You will need to have a separate attachment to roll your pasta. To see how this works, there is an excellent video on YouTube with Peter Pasta http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dufoH9mFEeE

No I have not tried the other attachments. I pretty much just use it to dice onions, tomatoes and garlic. I am sorry that I was not that much help.

If you are a twirler then prob. not. But like me if you are a scoop and slurp then not to bad.But for other pastas like macaroni it just fine. Plus I find it works just fine for sticking mostmeats as well. Raven
