Imperial Tobacco Rolling Machine

Had one of those in the past and did trow it in the bin as I did quit smoking. That lasted 1 year.Bought the same model as the one I had before as overall quality is way better than other cheap stuff sold online. Built quality is very good!

I ordered this on a whim as they have the papers/filters in my local supermarket but wasn’t sure about the concept as my father had a machine years ago that was a nightmare, this is the total opposite easy to use (does take a while to get it right and stop leaving a half inch empty near filter) but once mastered I’m saving huge amounts buying tobacco that last 4 or 5 days over packs of cigarettes

Does the job

I am very pleased to use this very helpfully technology . I notice that some how, working mach mach better then old type which looks identical but they are not working the same. This machine is a real improvement. MY tubes are full fill up all the way. Worth all the money.

Not sure

I've used this for many years very happy

In theory, this seems like a good idea. But I tried repeatedly to make something approaching a decent looking cigarette. After about half an hour, I was surroundeed by blobs of tobacco, ripped, torn and discarded cigarette tubes and a desire to throw the thing out of the window. I gave it away instead. Waste of time. Apparently, you're only supposed to use the tobacco the manufacturer recommends, but I've yet to see or find it anywhere. They also refused a refund, as I forgot about it for a while. Best to give up....

This machine works perfectly, once you spend some time practicing how to use it. Too much tobacco and you'll tear the tube, not enough tobacco and you'll end up with a flimsy cig. There is a perfect amount of tobacco to use. It must also be compressed using the included presser, at just the right amount. Tapping the filter on a table or hard surface will ensure the tobacco reaches the end of the filter. You can then make a little sausage of tobacco and stuff it into the end using a cocktail stick or similar to complete the end. Or just simply cut the end off to get a really neat cigarette. I've gone through 2000 tubes now and maybe tear 1 in a 100. I roll a 30g of Marlboro hand rolling tobacco every 2 days and now I've perfected it it doesn't take long at all. I no longer need to wait for the tobacco to dry out either. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another if this one breaks. Although I'm not sure how on earth that could even happen! For those who are struggling, keep at it. You can get it right , it just takes time and patience.
