Atlas 8320 Review by David Paoletta (Albuquerque, NM USA)
I got this pasta maker based on feedback from this and similar web sites. As always, the quality of the pasta depends on the quality of the dough - and that takes some practice. Once I had a good recipe and decent results rolling out by hand, the addition of this machine made life great!
Despite the jokes about Fiats and other Italian machinery - this machine is world class. It is heavy, solid and built to tight tolerances. You need to cut your pasta to fit and it's nice to have another set of hands, but once you get used to it the results are amazing!
I also got the ravioli attachment which is awesome. This machine will last forever if you care for it (do not immerse!) and makes a super fresh pasta dinner in less than an hour. My Sicilian mother (rest in peace) would be jealous!
Atlas 8320 Review by Frances E. Baumbach "Frances Elaine" (East Texas)
Attempted making pasta last year with bountiful garden of basil. It turned out too thick no matter HOW many times I flattened it with my rolling pin. This little machine got it sooooooo thin and after cooking (which took NO TIME at ALL!) it felt like silk in my mouth! Every bit as delicious and better than dried pasta, as I was told it would be.
Immediately ordered the ravioli attachment and it arrived just last week. We are eager to put our imagination and ravioli recipies to work!
Only-est thing is it takes 2 to hold it onto our counter while turning the crank and feed the dough into the rollers. I wish it had a better "grip".
Atlas 8320 Review by Barry Musmon "Barry" (Central maine)
I had been making home made pasta and it was quite good but I had the hardest time getting it thin enough, I could but it was just so much work. I posed a question to my cooking group and they said get some kind of pasta machine. They all had recommendations but basically only two, the Atlas Original and the Imperza. As I researched them, there didn't seem to be much difference between them, both high quality and both made in Italy. I bought the Atlas because it had free shipping on Amazon and the Impreza didn't and the Impreza was not supplied by Amazon but another supplier through Amazon. Amazon has a such a great return policy, they even pay for the shipping should you have to return it. So the decision had been made and I ordered it.
In the mean time, I went to work designing a system to address everyone's complaint about any of the manual pasta makers, that is the clamp and the necessity to have two people. I don't want my wife in the same town when I make pasta, it looks like flour wars when I am through, but it is all cleaned up by the time she comes back.
I bought a board at Walmart for $[...] and I had everything else I needed. I hope this picture comes through if not I am also going to give the actual address that can be viewed in your browser.

With the saving on the shipping I bought Cooks Illustrated Pasta and Noodle instruction book, in my life time I would never get through all these recipes. Bascially I use their recipe for pasta, 3 cups of APF and 3 eggs, today I used 4 cups of flour and 4 eggs, simple enough, the extra cup was whole wheat, I have never done this before, so I don't know how it will work, I think it will be good. Whole wheat is somewhat harder to work with, but I suspect you would get the knack after a couple of trys.
I like working with the dough so this is just what I wanted and it looks like it will get passed down, really built well. If you want a pasta maker and don't mind hand making the pasta as opposed to the machines that basically mix the pasta and extrude the pasta, this is a very nice choice. I haven't tried the cheaper ones, it is possible you could get lucky, but I wouldn't mess around and get the real deal, you won't be sorry.
