Question: Does it make any difference that there are no handles (better or worse)?
Document: This is better for me to use than a traditional rolling pin in every way--it's more comfortable, more intuitive, and does a better job. I didn't think it could make that much of a difference, but it surely does and I love using it! Highly recommended, especially as the price is only slightly more than you'd pay for a regular kind of rolling pin.
What can I say? It works great, even though it doesn't have handles.This thing is LONG and takes a lot of space in the drawer. Make sure you need something this big.
This is my first rolling pin and my last, unless something freakish happens to it. I love it. The tapered handles make it easy to get tortillas super thin and it cleans easily. It sticks a little, but I think that's just me learning how to bake haha!
My only regret is that it took me so long to convert from the awkward kind with handles on ends. Doing a lot more baking lately and realized I needed better tools. This design gives excellent results. Beautifully simple and functional.
What a difference a quality made product makes. Ilove it. Have told several peple about it and thay were going to order it!
My wife uses this to make roti, naan, and pizza crust as well as some other things. She loves this rolling pin. It's the perfect size and the taper makes it easy to roll out dough.
I really like using this tapered rolling pin. It does a good job. I like to make my own pastry dough and a good rolling pin is part of the process.
I make homemade pasta a few times a month and this quality rolling pin really does the job.... I feel like it is something I will pass along to my kids....
needed this and love it because it is thin and does the job just as good if not better than the big ones.
It's a french pin. It's flat in the middle then it tapers around the last 6 inches or so  on either side. The wood isnt sealed but is smooth. I oiled it with mineral oil to seal it and it helped make the pin a little nicer in appearance and in cleanup characteristics.
Answer: yes, definitely.  I have worked with handled rollers for years and this takes some learning time.  the big advantage to this type of roller is that you can really work the dough when making pie shells.  You learn to move your hands as you roll to move the dough left-right and thin-thick.  very clever once you get the hang of it.  I watched the Europeans use these for years before deciding I could learn to do that.  give it a try.  It is a classic roller.
