Works for me
I almost did not buy this because of the reviews,however I am glad I did. I have never used a pasta machine or even made pasta before. I went to You Tube and watched a video of a Chef using this attachment (there are You Tube videos for all the attachments). I made some meat filling and rolled out some pasta sheets (to a thickness of 3) and cranked out a sheet of ravioli no problem! as I was feeding the pasta I used the scoop to press the filling as I went and had full ravi's. I then used a toothpick to poke a little hole in each ravioli and cooked them. Not one ravioli blew up or leaked. This attachment works.
At first I didn 't believe the reviews
I bought this attachment despite all the negative reviews because I love my Kitchenaid and all its other attachments. Unfortunately, the negative reviewers were correct, and I returned it within a week. It is true that, by using thick pasta sheets, little filling, and re-sealing most of the edges by hand, you can make ravioli in a slow hand-cranked fashion. But nobody who has eaten really good ravioli would settle for what this device can produce, and I can make better ravioli faster with my little $10 cutting wheel. The pasta rollers for the Kitchenaid are excellent, and I would advise any real pasta lover to get the roller attachment and fill and cut the ravioli by hand. It's quicker and produces a far better product.

really is a waste of money
I used this in a pasta/ravioli class and it is NOT worth $130. First, it does take practice, but so does using a ravioli tray or making them free hand. The ravioli we made came out better using a $20 tray or free hand with a $6 fluted cutting wheel than they did on this thing. Sure, if you practice you could get it to work...but it would take less time and practice to use a ravioli tray or cutter and save you more than $100. Even when we got "good" with it, it was not a major time saver, in fact, I could do more by hand in less time. You could buy dozens of cool sizes and shapes with the pans for the cost of this one piece of equipment. This is one place where KitchenAid misses the mark...
I will say that the roller is a lifesaver, ... Read More
This is an awful product!
Please read my review of the KitchenAid Pasta Rollers set. I love them. I love my food grinder and some other attatchments. So, I thought I'd love this ravioli maker as well. I've been making pasta and ravioli for 20 plus years and I have several presses for shaping my ravioli. I have taught classes on the subject.
It's impossible to get the air out of each ravioli. If there's air they explode when you cook them. I wrote to KitchenAid after returning mine. But they still make them. I told them that if a first time ravioli maker bought this, they'd think it was their fault that it didn't work. It is impossible to make a good ravioli with this type of machine.
