Philips Avance Pasta Maker Plus - $200
$200.00
This deal ends 4/27 so jump on it if you want this! I've been eyeing this pasta maker for a long time and the price has finally come down enough to buy. The standard comes with 4 disks but this has 8! The 4 added disks usually runs for $40 online so this is an amazing bonus. Perfect for Mother's Day ☺️

In case anyone else wanted to know what disks:
Spaghetti, Penne, Fettuccine, Lasagna, Tagliatelle, Pappardelle, Angel hair and Thick spaghetti.
Traditionally, fresh tagliatelle is the same *shape* as fettuccini, but made with egg and dried into nests, so I'm not sure what the difference in the extruder disks would be. No linguini, which would be the more obvious addition if this extruder couldn't manage the force for a turned shape like rotini.
It's still a good price, if you eat fresh pasta often enough and either don't have a mixer with attachment capability or consider the minor manual effort of a powered roller attachment too much. but other than the penne, there's nothing here that isn't going to be really easy to make with a mixer's pasta attachment, and I've seen extruders with disks for fusilli, rotini, cannelloni, manicotti...
- Pasta is better than boxed, worse than true hand-made
- Obviously way easier than hand-made, but still requires a fair bit of cleaning after you've made a batch
- The standard disks aren't all that interesting, spaghetti, fettuccine kinda feel the same. Penne is decent, but buying another 2 disks (tagliatelle + pappardelle) costs $50 and looks much more fun
If you love pasta and don't already have too many appliances cluttering your kitchen, go for it
Buying a $70 mercato off of Amazon will make far superior pasta AND it's faster.
Pasta is like playing with play doh, it's super forgiving. The mixture is forgiving as well. 2 cups of flour, two eggs, and then four egg yolks, mix it and you can have a ton of linguine in 25 minutes (10 minutes of that is just covering the dough ball in plastic wrap and letting it rest and autolyse )
Fresh egg pasta cooks also quicker you will save about 8 minutes of boiling time.
This takes longer than hand made and then cleaning it takes like 15 minutes. It's a joke. (You just wipe down a mercato with a paper towel the cleaning is essentially zero)
It's not even about price I literally wouldn't use this if it was given to me for free because the pasta is extremely thick, i would just go to the store and buy thin dried egg noodle pasta.
