Frieling Crafted in the USA Maple Rolling Pin - Grande 2.75 x 15-Inch Wooden Rolling Pin with Handles - Baking Dough Roller for Cookies

The ATK recommended rolling pin would not deliver to my area so I purchased this one and it does not disappoint. I'm happy it's American made and of good quality.

Just what I was looking for. I wanted a rolling pin that was not super small in diameter or short in length. This fit the bill. Not real heavy but has some weight to it. Fits in my drawers. Feels like a quality tool and is well made and smooth. I consider this a perfect replacement for the handled spinning pins. This rolling pin puts you one step closer to the dough you are rolling. You get a better feel for the dough.

Solid wood. Smooth. Good weight. I'm happy with my purchase.

Purchase this for a pizzeria used it for less than 2 months and fell apart I thought I was buying the best rolling pin out there because it was made in USA it was more money but was very disappointed I'm hoping the company will make good on it

The Frieling Maple French Rolling Pin is a beautifully made hardwood rolling pin. It truly is a classic. It is made with very nice wood and the length and taper are just right.However, seasoning: On the wrap Frieling says to season it wiht mineral oil about the size of a quarter. In the first picture (the full size, it is shown before it is oiled. (I went over it, perhaps 20 times over the course of half an hour) and used half a bottle of mineral oil, and I am not sure I am done yet. It is still absorbing oil! (and I am in a VERY wet environment, the second wettest on earth, I understand). I must be kiln dried wood because it is very dry. It is worth taking the time to season it properly. In the close up you can see wood shavings on my stove top. These were still coming off the wood after I had worked on it for 15-20 minutes. You do not want that in your dough.I oiled it on top of my pizza peel (knowing it could use another coat). That is made with wood which is not as nice as the Frieling, but after 10+ years of maintenance has some very nice color and finish. I typically use beeswax (and some very good beeswax). Whatever you use, made sure that it is food safe. Either buy food safe mineral oil, or beeswax (as good as you can find). Sadly 99% of what I have bought as beeswax on Amazon is not, it is a petroleum product. What I have been using is some lovely beeswax from Spain, which I did get on Amazon, but with a very good cutting board, and I wish I knew where to get more. I would recommend getting it from a local bee keeper, and if you can not find one, from a health food or organic food store. It is worth it.I am expecting that ultimately, the pin will approach the color of the peel....but that will take some time.

This rolling pin is crafted of solid maple and is sturdy and easy to use. I have always used a rolling pin with handles. My last one was not a very nice one and the rolling assembly broke so it was very difficult for me to use. I found this one and although it was a bit more expensive than my previous one, I am very glad I got it. For one thing it is heavier than my old one. That makes it easier to roll dough as you don’t need to press down as hard. The rolling assembly is smooth and quiet. You could always hear the “rolling” in my old pin. The handles are very ergonomic and a little bigger than my old one so it much easier to hold while rolling. Because it is crafted of slid maple and it is meant to last, it does need to be seasoned prior to the first use and every so often after that. You just take some food grade mineral oil-you can get this online or at the hardware store-and rub a little on to penetrate the wood. This will keep it “sealed” so no dough will stick to it and it protects the wood. This is just a really nice rolling pin and it has a lifetime guarantee. Let me repeat that. It has a LIFETIME guarantee! Great product and a great value for what you get.

Rather than for baking, I ordered this rolling pin to do wood burning on. The smooth wood is perfect for creating an amazing piece of art. This is a wonderful, high quality natural wood rolling pin. Highly recommend for artists!

This a quality rolling pin , the wood finish and smoothness show the quality of hand made product
