Pros & Cons
Pros
Quality of the machine is top notch. Only complaint is with the instructions and cookbook that came with the machine. It's a big appliance but it's not a big deal.
You need a small scale that measures in grams to make the measurements exact. Follow the liquid to flour ratio exactly. Conch shell, hippos, kitties, minions.
No more mistakes. No more fails. A few suggestions. This works, but it needs a bit of learning curve.
My son's favorite is similar to linguini, only much thicker and wider. It is still al dente, which literally means for the tooth.
Cons
Would not extrude the past dough. Measurements on the screen are in cups, but the tool they provide to measure is in ml, so i either you have to do the conversion math everytime (thank god for alexa), or just not use the cup they provided.
Highlights
Quality
I was hesitant to purchase this expensive item, but i am very pleased with the end product.
I've used it several times in the last week and i'm really happy with the results.
What i was doing wrong was measuring cups of flour with a cup measure rather than using the cup that comes with the unit.
Only use the cup that comes with the machine, not your own measuring cups!
Price
Took a chance when the price dropped.
Packaging/appearance
As for cleaning, i disassembled the parts and left them out on the counter until the pasta remnants dried up.

It takes a little trial and error even with a good recipe basically the dough should still be a little crumbly and not a solid mass before extruding

I’ve tried mixing the flour with semolina as recommended in the booklet but the result tastes the same to me and looks the same

It’s a lot easier to clean all of this by just letting the dough dry on it
