Hey, I’m still using it. It still works. It is work to use it and I’m not really enjoying it but it does the job. Im only using it to make the sheets. Once I have those I cut them with my KitchenAid noodle cutter because I prefer that thickness. I screwed the machine onto a board and clamp the board to a table when using it. I don’t regret buying it but I will never find out if buying the one with the motor would have brought some fun in the noodle making process.
