Best pasta maker :
a review of the Imperia SP150 manual machine.

• It’s one of the most well-established Italian companies.



• Its factory in Turin uses only the best Italian components and is staffed entirely of local Italian workers.



• The name is synonymous with high quality, durable products which virtually guarantee an unmistakable quality of fresh pasta every time.



• Its reputation means it exports to seventy-seven countries worldwide and is the biggest exporter of Italian pasta machines to the United States.

• The machine attaches by a clamp to a work surface and the rollers are turned by a handle on its side.



• There are two separate attachments : one comprising two rollers which can be adjusted to roll the pasta into increasingly thin sheets.



• Just feed your homemade pasta dough into the machine and watch perfect pasta come out!



• The second attachment then cuts the pasta into either a tagliatelle or spaghetti shape.



• Additional attachments can be bought to create a whole variety of different shapes.

• This is above all a sturdy, well-built machine. The best pasta maker needs to be robust - and this one is.



• The attachments are simple to fit and sit firmly on the machine.



• The handle mechanism and rollers work very smoothly, making it simple to use.



• Cleans easily - just keep it well floured when using to avoid clogging, and when finished, wipe clean.



• The additional attachments available (we love the ravioli maker!) make great birthday or Christmas presents!



• The machine is guaranteed against breakage for five years.

Are there any disadvantages?

Not really. There are cheaper models on the market but they are much less well-built and tend to fall apart very quickly. It’s well worth spending a bit more for this machine.
