Philips 7000 Series Pasta Maker HR2660/00

I had been looking for a pasta machine for a few years. However, I had my doubts. Fresh pasta made so quickly could never be good and tasty, right? Now a few weeks ago I made the decision to invest in this and I am pleasantly surprised. If I had known this I would have bought a pasta machine much sooner! With a few simple ingredients and the push of a button, the dough is formed and the pasta comes through the mold after 3 minutes. The only disadvantage is that the first dough is dry and therefore unusable. I quickly solve this by putting it back in the mixing container so that it can be processed again. Lasagna sheets, Penne, Spaghetti, it all comes out neatly. Can be cut to the length you want. Especially useful with the Lasagna sheets. I adjust it to the size of my bowl. There is little residual dough left in the device, which means there is virtually no waste. Cleaning is also no problem as many parts can simply be put in the dishwasher. Since I purchased the pasta maker, we have been eating delicious fresh pasta twice a week. The supermarket bags of dry pasta no longer come into the house.

I am a pasta lover myself. I used to buy my pasta at the supermarket. I usually found the pasta in restaurants much tastier, so I decided to purchase the pasta machine. Once it arrived, I immediately tested it by making lasagna sheets. This worked out well, but I still have to get used to the ingredient ratio. The leaves were still soft and could quickly tear if I was not careful. Overall the machine was fast and the loading trays were ready quite quickly. This took about 10-15 minutes. The result was much tastier than with the lasagna trays from the supermarket. After using the device, cleaning the device was still a job. I have fairly large hands and could not easily reach all corners of the components. In the end we succeeded by using some wipes and a spoon.

The next day I made pasta again. This time penne pasta. The pasta was ready wonderfully quickly within 10 minutes. Big taste difference with pasta from the supermarket. In general, this is quite an expensive device and the question remains whether it is worth it for everyone. If you are a pasta lover and eat a fair amount of pasta, this is definitely recommended. If you do not often eat pasta yourself, the question remains whether you want to purchase this device or whether you will just continue to eat pasta from the supermarket. In any case, as a pasta lover, the choice was quickly made for me. Thanks for reading my review!

I bought this pasta machine because I really like fresh pasta. It is a nice machine, you have a lot of choice in the types of pasta you can make. The instructions are also easy to follow. You will have fresh pasta on the table in a fairly short time. Even the instruction booklet contains a few basic recipes, so you can quickly start making pasta. What I think is a shame on the one hand is that you have to let the remains of the pasta dough dry in the attachment. Before you clean it. The rest of the machine is very easy to clean. But hey, if you consider it with all the positives, it's still a great machine.
