Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Vic Firth French Rolling Pin
Customer Review: Nothing fancy, but gets the job done very well
Summary: 4 Stars
It is just what it looks like, a shaped piece of wood, but it does a great job in rolling out pie crusts, pastries, etc. Not sure why Amazon decided to send it in a HUGE box, though. Regardless, a very handy rolling pin, only caveat is that, unlike stone pins, it doesn't weigh very much, so, depending on the application, you may have to apply some force of your own (not a big deal, just different if you're used to a heavier pin).Customer Review: SMALLER DIAMETER THAN EXPECTED
Summary: 4 Stars
I AM IMPRESSED WITH THE QUALITY OF THIS INEXPENSIVE ROLLING PIN. THE WOOD IS WONDERFULLY SMOOTH. I WAS SURPRISED, THOUGH, TO SEE THAT THE DIAMETER OF THE ROLLING PIN WAS SO MUCH SMALLER THAN MY TRADITIONAL ROLLING PIN WITH HANDLES. THE LENGTH SEEMS TO BE ABOUT RIGHT. I HAVE YET TO USE THE PIN, BUT I'M CONCERNED THAT THE DIAMETER MIGHT MAKE FOR MORE WORK.Customer Review: Vic Firth Rolling Pin used once so far.
Summary: 4 Stars
We (my wife) used the rolling pin today for the first time, and she said it gave her more control to roll the pie crust evenly (closer to the diameter of the pan with less waste.) It feels so different in her hands after using a regular rolling pin for 37 years that she needs to get used to it. All in all it seems like a good product.Customer Review: Works very well
Summary: 4 Stars
It's the perfect size, light weight, not too big around so it rolls out very well. I just used it to make homemade pasta and it was an excellent tool. Pie crust will work equally well. This is the only kind of roller to use, all others are inferior. I've been baking and using roller pins for 30 years.Customer Review: Beautiful rolling pin
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very nice quality rolling pin. It is easy to handle and clean. I have used it on stiff and soft doughs, and works well for both. It is relatively easy to use when rolling dough into a particular shape, ie for scones, or pie crust.
