Marcato Atlas 150 Pasta Machine Set with 3 Attachments
Our Verdict
The benchmark Italian hand-crank roller, bundled with raviolini, reginette and spaghetti attachments for six pasta shapes straight out of the box.
Why it's number one: Full marks for shapes and thickness range (six shapes across ten positions) and the best build score; no allowlisted outlet has published a rated review of any pasta maker here, and Amazon AU owners rate it 4.6 stars from 1,529 reviews (the same roller sold bare is 4.7 from 27,129).
The Marcato Atlas 150 is the pasta machine most home cooks picture when they think of fresh pasta, and this set bundles the chromed-steel roller with three cutter attachments so you're not buying add-ons later. Out of the box it makes raviolini, reginette and spaghetti via the attachments, plus lasagne sheets, 6mm fettuccine and 1.5mm tagliolini from the standard cutter, which is six shapes before you touch any of Marcato's optional accessories. The 10-position regulating knob takes dough from a hearty 4.8mm down to a translucent 0.6mm, and the clamp locks the machine to the bench so you can crank with one hand and feed with the other. It's sold and shipped by Amazon AU, and buyers have given it 4.6 stars across 1,526 reviews, one of the strongest track records in the category. It's a premium spend for a manual machine, and the attachments in the box are a big part of why, but it's built to be the pasta maker you buy once and hand down.
Owners is the 4.6★ Amazon AU rating from 1,532 reviews, weighted toward the category average when there are few. Fewer than two published reviews of this exact model, so the owner rating carries that weight too. Tick marks show the category average.
How we scored it
Each measure is marked against the category's rubric, where 10 is the best you can buy, 8 is strong, 6 is basic but sound and 4 falls short. The bars show that mark on the Top7 scale (a 6 reads as 7.0, an 8 as 8.5); the notes quote the rubric mark.
- Performance 8.9 (rubric 8.5): Rolls from 4.8 mm to 0.6 mm across 10 positions on chromed rollers; no allowlisted test, but the bare Atlas 150 (same roller) carries 27,129 Amazon AU ratings at 4.7.
- Build 9.3 (rubric 9): Chromed steel body and rollers with the category's largest clean owner record (27,129 at 4.7 for the bare machine, 1,529 at 4.6 for the set); warranty not stated on the card.
- Versatility 10.0 (rubric 10): Six shapes out of the box (lasagne sheet, 6 mm fettuccine, 1.5 mm tagliolini plus raviolini, reginette and spaghetti attachments) across 10 positions: the top band.
- Ease of Use 8.1 (rubric 7.5): Bench clamp and a detachable cutter unit, hand wash only; the card says hand-cranking takes practice and no cleaning brush is listed.
