 good qualityJul 30, 2009
For those who think that this rolling pin is too heavy, you have to remember that it is SUPPOSED to be heavy. The weight is the whole idea here, it is the weight of the pin that applies pressure to the dough so that your hands do less work when you make flat syrian or pita breads. There are also some recipes for no bake cakes that call for large quantities of crushed or even pulverized nuts and cookies. This pin will spares your wrists big time, your regular light weighted pin is just not going to work. If you feel that the finish is not smooth enough for you simply spray the pin with oil before you start using it, it cleans off really easy as well. And oh yes, marble is not cheap, this price is very reasonable.

Great productMay 19, 2009
By Royce D. Warner
Couldn't find anything like this locally, so I looked here. Couldn't believe the price and it really is the best rolling pin I've ever used. Keeps the dough cool and has never been "stuck" to the marble pin either. The cradle comes in really handy as well, since it can be hard to find an appropriate place on the counter or in a drawer without worrying about rolling all over the place. I definitely recommend it to anyone in need of a weighted, affordable, rolling pin.

 Nice for the priceOct 10, 2007
By Kevin L. Collins
"Jack of Three trades-King Of One"
Pros:The pin is worth the money.
The weight is nice & heavy *(if thats what you prefer)
The base makes it safe to sit on the flat work bench or table.
Cons: The spin device is not as fluid as I would like but thats what you get for the money I guess.

Perfect Pastry PinJan 21, 2011
By Sharon Beverly
Rolling pins are intended to be heavy and this one's a hefty six pounds. I place mine in the freezer for 30 minutes prior to rolling out pastry dough and it does a fantastic job. As you know, your options for making a flaky crust are to use either a marble slab with a wooden rolling pin and cloth sleeves (to pick up excess flour in the rolling process and prevent sticking) or, to chill the pin and work on a lightly floured surface. The chilled rolling pin prevents the breakdown of the fat in the dough and helps maintain the quality of the crust. I prefer this latter method.
Here are this product's pros and cons:
Pros
* Weight is appropriate for its purpose
* Marble provides a perfectly smooth dough
* Handles are sufficiently long for larger hands yet, excellent for smaller ones
* Base cradles the pin allowing it be placed on a counter or, stored on a shelf without the chance of rolling away
* Dough does not stick to the marble
* Cleans easily
* Long-lasting product
Cons
* There just aren't any, which is why I'm re-ordering exactly the same rolling pin 15 years later
We frequently complain about planned obsolescence in many of today's products. Not this one!

okOct 14, 2010
By S. Cam
I purchased this rolling pin because it said 18" and I thought it would be longer than the others at a lower price. However, the 18" includes the handles so it was much smaller than I thought it would be. I had a marble roller for many years that was much bigger so was disapointed in the size. The quality seems good and I would recommend this to someone who doesn't mind it a bit smaller ( although I'd compare prices first).
