Gourmet Chef Hand-Operated Stainless Steel Pasta Maker for $23.99
Clamp this pasta machine to your counter or table edge, choose a setting, and you’re ready to turn out fresh homemade pasta. This hand-operated pasta maker features adjustable stainless steel rollers with 7 thickness settings that can knead pasta dough into 4" wide sheets, perfect for making ravioli or lasagna noodles. Or slide on the stainless steel cutting attachment to make spaghetti or fettuccine noodles. You’ll never want to resort to buying dried, store-bought pasta again.
These gadgets tend to cost a lot more ($32 - $90 on Amazon), so even with $4.99 shipping this looks like a good buy for someone who wants to get started making his/her own pasta.
Could be a great deal, but it doesn't provide the brand. Could be a cheap Chinese knock-off that is cheaply plated with chrome that will start to come off into your pasta. If you want cheap pasta, buy the cheap dry pasta at the store. If you want good homemade pasta I would spend a little more for a known brand with their reputation out there. Either way this is a gamble I am not going to risk throwing away $30 on.
Gourmet Chef is the brand. It's one found at Wal-Mart and the like. Cheap brand, makes ok products! Not a bad price.
I don't own this particular model, but when cleaning any sort of pasta maker constructed like this pay close attention to the cleaning instructions. Often, the blade housing is basically an assembly, and any water with soap in it will immediately cause the blades to rust.
