Before buying, check that you actually like homemade pasta. I bought Marcato Atlas knock-off and turns out I don’t like the pasta from homemade dough (1 large egg per 100 g flour), preferring Barilla, etc.

Marcato Atlas works great. TBH, I have never used anything else, so others can be good too.

I agree with everyone else (Mercato Atlas) and would add that should you ever want to venture into other pasta shapes, Mercato has a good range of accessories.

I was gifted an Atlas 150 for Christmas and as a beginner I really like it. It seems to be well made. It’s a lot of fun to use.

+1 for the Marcato Atlas
