does it work well with pasta attachment?

Yes! The pasta attachment is amazing! I've made all of the shapes, but especially like the rigatoni style. Just be sure to check the manual for speed needed, as each shape requires a different speed. Also, after using it often, the best way to clean up, is to set all the pieces out over night and let the extra pasta bits dry in the plate. They will brush right out in the morning.

I do not think so. This attachment is for the marcato pasta machine. The kitchenaid pasta attachment is built differently. You can't attach the marcato attachment to the kitchenaid mixer.

Works great for rice without the basket. Pasta is tricky, with or without basket, make sure it has room to roll with the boil, or it will stick together. I use it mostly for steaming veggies with water level below the bottom of the basket.

It does.... but you have to cut it size. Don't waste your money on this machine. Its very noisy and hard to make the pasta come out correctly. Hard to use. Good luck

While the drive shaft of the motor should fit the pasta maker, I'm not sure how you would keep the motor from falling out of the maker....mine has a spring-steel clamp that holds it tight to the pasta maker.

No but it has a mechanism (pin) that attaches it to a hole in the pasta machine. You may want to verify such hole/slot is present in your pasta machine.

Sorry for the delay. This looks like a great pack. Yes it has all you need. You use the pasta roller first. Then attach any of the other attachments to make the type of pasta you want. Looks like there is fettuccine, spaghetti etc. cutters. Also it has the Ravioli attachment, that's all you need. happy pasta making. You will notice the difference in taste and quality with your homemade pasta, and doesn't fill you up as much as store bought pasta. Yummy.. Naturally there are other attachments that you can buy. Such as the pasta extruder attachement to make large or small macaroni, fusili, rigatoni, bucatini, or spaghetti. Hope this is helpful Sorry for the delay. This looks like a great pack.

This is more than enough to make flat pasta types. however there is another pasta press kpexta that makes hollow noodles of different types. Of all these accessories i found the only disappointment to be the ravioli attachment. You are much better off making those by hand after making sheets of pasta with the sheet press.

It depends on your taste. Using the Marcato Pasta Machine I had really good results with the '6' setting.

The attachment did not work well at all. It was very difficult to use. I found it easier to roll out the dough,stuff and place in ravioli dish and cut with pastry cutter.Size was about 1 inch-very small.

Annie, depends. I use my machine for rolling out gum paste for making flowers that I use in cake decorating, I do secure it, but not sure if it would be absolutely necessary. Have never made pasta with it. If it is convenient to secure it in your case, I would do it just to be sure.

You cannot make stuffed pasta like ravioli or cannelloni with this attachment, but you can make rigatoni, which could then be stuffed. I can imagine using a pastry bag to pipe a filling into the rigatoni, then sealing the ends. My favorite Italian restaurant makes such a dish and it is fantastic. But this attachment is meant mainly for making the long or tubular pasta shapes, not stuffed pastas. Consider the ravioli attachment, but you would also need the pasta roller first to make the sheets. Good luck!

Yes. The set comes with a roller and two cutters. You use the roller first to flatten the dough to the desired thickness. Do not try to feed a too large chunk through; it will be impossible to handle. Some experimenting is required. If you mess it up, don't worry. Just fold it over and feed it through again. Start with a #1 thickness setting [the thickest] and gradually work down to the desired. I found that for spaghetti, # 6 works best. If it is thicker, the strands will not separate. I roll out all the dough sheets first and stack them with plastic wrap between them after dusting with flour. I then change to the cutter and run them all through, again, dusting both sides prior to cutting. If you don't have a drying rack, you can spread the strands out on some paper towels; however, I do recommend a rack or two, depending on how much you will be making. Do NOT fold them into small piles; they will stick together and form a gob of dough when cooking. This is a great attachment; you can fix a large batch in no time once you get the hang of it. I made an eighteen-egg batch in two hours. That's a lot of pasta. And $149 is a good price; I've seen it vary up and down for a high of about $200.

You will need to have a separate attachment to roll your pasta. To see how this works, there is an excellent video on YouTube with Peter Pasta http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dufoH9mFEeE

Don't know yet. The base machine with linguini and spaghetti cutters works very well. Have not used other cutters, including the small ravioli cutter attachment other than the initial waste product cleaning process. the small noodle/crinkle edge attachment looks interesting and want to try it next. If all work as promised, the price is a good one for the entire set. If you don't use it regularly or put a few attachments in deepest recesses of cabinets, they are just expensive toys. The machine itself is top notch.

Yes but I wouldn't really recommend this product. I think the pasta comes out mushy or all stuck together. It's easier to wash a pot...

It slides on to the press on the same tabs as the fettuccine/spaghetti attachment that came with the press. It attaches very nicely and works well.
