Best Electric Pasta Makers for Five Kitchen Roles

How the Five Compare on the Numbers

The five picks on this page differ most clearly in what their manufacturers publish about power, capacity and included tooling. The GVODE is the only one published with a 700W Pmax rating, while the Newhai is published at 135W and the Philips 7000 Series at 150W. The VEVOR and Marcato do not publish a wattage at all. On capacity, the VEVOR states a 500g flour capacity, and the Philips states up to 8 portions, but the other three do not publish a portion count.

Included tooling also separates them. The VEVOR is published with eight pasta molds and four automatic modes. The GVODE includes a sheet roller, a fettuccine cutter and a spaghetti cutter. The Marcato includes a handcrank, a clamp and a Pastadrive motor. The Newhai is published with two noodle sizes, 1.5 mm and 4 mm. The Philips 7000 Series title lists 8 discs but the feature text does not name them.

The table does not tell you how any of these machines performs in a kitchen. No one at Lush has used them. It also does not tell you the pasta-making time for the Philips, the wattage for the Marcato or VEVOR, or the size of the Newhai, because those figures are not published. Treat the table as a list of what each maker states, not as a comparison of results.

What Each Machine Is Published as Making

Extruded pasta and mixing functions

The Philips 7000 Series is published with ProExtrude Technology and a mixing function that the maker states can be used for cookies and to start pizza and bread dough. It is the only pick on this sheet whose feature list mentions a mixing function beyond pasta. The manufacturer states it makes up to 8 portions in one go and that parts are non-stick and dishwasher-safe.

The VEVOR is also an extruder, published with a two-way kneading rod and four-dimensional mixing. The maker states it has four automatic modes and includes eight pasta molds, a flour measuring cup, a liquid measuring cup, a spatula and a cleaning brush. It is the only pick published with a 500g flour capacity and a stated time of 14 minutes for about 4 people.

Rolled pasta and manual options

The Marcato Atlasmotor is a roller machine, published as making pasta sheets up to 150 mm or 6 inches wide. It includes a handcrank and a Pastadrive motor, so the maker states it can be used manually or electrically. The adjustment knob has 10 positions, and the maker states it is compatible with 11 separately available Marcato accessories. It is the only pick published as made and assembled in Italy.

The GVODE is also a roller machine, published with a 3-in-1 attachment that includes a sheet roller, a fettuccine cutter and a spaghetti cutter. The maker states it has 8 thickness settings from 0.4 to 2 mm, 2 speeds and a reverse function. It is the only pick published with a stainless steel housing and a 700W Pmax rating. The Newhai is a roller machine published with two noodle sizes, 1.5 mm and 4 mm, and a dough sheet width of 5 inches.

Cleaning and Maintenance as Published

What the makers state about cleaning

The Philips 7000 Series is published with non-stick, dishwasher-safe parts. The Marcato states that resin scrapers clean the rollers during use, and that remaining dough residue should be cleaned with a dry brush after sitting out for at least 30 minutes. The GVODE includes a cleaning brush. The VEVOR states that parts should be left to dry naturally and then tapped to remove flour, and includes a cleaning brush and spatula. The Newhai does not publish a cleaning method in its feature list.

Running habits the makers state

The GVODE is the only pick whose maker publishes a running rhythm: 15-minute batches with a 5-minute cool-down between them. The maker states this is the most important habit for motor life. No other pick on this sheet publishes a duty cycle or cool-down period. The Shule, which is not among these five picks, publishes a note about machine sound, but none of the five picks here publish a noise figure.

Which One Fits Your Kitchen

If you want recipe guidance built in. The Philips 7000 Series is the only pick published with app-based step-by-step recipes, including vegan and gluten-free options. It is also the only one published with a mixing function for cookies and bread dough.

If you want to crank by hand sometimes. The Marcato Atlasmotor includes both a handcrank and a motor, and is published as made in Italy. It is the only pick on this sheet that can be used without electricity.

If you want a stainless steel housing. The GVODE is the only pick published with a stainless steel shell, and it is the only one published with a 700W Pmax rating. It includes three cutters for sheets, fettuccine and spaghetti.

If you want the most published pasta shapes. The VEVOR is published with eight pasta molds and four automatic modes, and states a 500g flour capacity that makes noodles for about 4 people in 14 minutes.

If you want a published efficiency figure. The Newhai is the only pick published with an efficiency rating of 11 pounds per hour, and it is published with two noodle sizes, 1.5 mm and 4 mm.
