The Norpro hardwood rolling pin has two ends, one at each end of handle for multi-use ease. Great for pizza and cookie dough. One end has a 2-1/2-inch long roller and the other end has a 4-1/4-inch roller.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

The best roller for homade pizza
If you make your own pizza dough this is the roller for you. I actually buy mine from "Fresh and Easy" but it's still the same. I use to use a regular rolling pin but that didn't work out my mom got me this and I've been in love with it ever since. What's so great about it is it's small enough to roll the dough in the pizza pan. With the small rounded end it's easy to get in the corners of the pan and get a ridge on the edges without any effort with the bigger roller it's easy to spread the dough out from the center of the pan. The only thing that you have to watch out for is not to soak it or keep it in water for long, it tends to start discoloring the wood and then start splitting after a while. I season mine with oil every now and then.
I've tried the marble version but the handle was cramped and the wire roller holders were twisted (I twisted them back though). The marble version does have some advantages; it's heavier which makes it easier to roll the dough out, its...

It does the job :)
I like making homemade pizzas, I have all the gear and am perfecting recipes ... Though with some limited counter space, and the inability to manipulate the pizza dough as I want with a standard rolling pin, this Pastry/Pizza roller is perfect. Even if you HAVE a lot of counter space, it has the advantage to have more control over the dough when you roll it out.
Most of you that are looking to order this, already know why you may want or need it, but to comment on what I mean about `control' ... When rolling dough, and having a recipe (or desire) to make a nicely edged crust, a larger rolling pin can only flatten out the entire ball of dough.
With this, you can roll out the dough, but put more effort into the center, leaving an outer ring of un-rolled dough, which will rise more and create a `breadier' crust (should you want one). And, if your dough is not so circular, then it's even better when rolling smaller personal pizzas, square or uniquely shaped...
splinters, unfinished wood
The wood used for the roller is very soft, unfinished, and has splinters coming off all over it. I would never roll pastry or dough with something that would leave splinters. I am trying to sand it down but I don't think I'm going to be able to stop it happening some more. Shame, it's a stylish product and has potential to be very useful.
