I’d wanted one of these for a while but usually machines like this get put in the cabinet and not used because they’re a PIA to clean. Not so with this little Phillips Viva! My mom got a fantastic deal on it ($100 off on Amazon) and I got a whole bunch of bronze dies from Pastidea. It’s taken me some time to get the right chew I like for my pasta but it’s so fun to make and I’ve been having a lot of fun with it! Yesterday was Tagliatelle, lemon, butter, olive oil, shallots, garlic, red pepper flakes and Parmesan. Best one yet I think! Tackling ravioli tomorrow!

How’s the machine overall? Build quality? Did it come with plastic dies? Plastic or metal auger and chamber?
I saw you on the Group. This looks great.
Would you mind sharing the name of the FB group(if allowed)? I just got a Phillips pasta machine secondhand and while I’ve used it once, I’m not enjoying it as much as my atlas. Seems like I need to figure out the kinks!
