18-Inch Pizza Dough Roller Machine with Hand Crank - Pasta Maker, Dough Sheeter Features Non-Stick Rollers with Thickness Control - Solid Steel and Aluminum Construction

I have a wood fired pizza oven and it's always a challenge to make the pizzas as fast as the oven cooks them with the real bottleneck being rolling out the dough. I was hosting a party and bought this hoping it would help with advance prep. I was able to pre-roll a dozen perfectly round pizza doughs in advance... huge game changer. Not sure where some of the negative reviews are coming from... I just made sure the rounds were well coated in flour before rolling and took each one through multiple rolls of decreasing thickness. All dozen were stacked between parchment in the fridge in advance. Come time to bake they were nice and chilled and easy to work with. The only negative is that the base is made of particle wood... would have expected at least a food grade plastic. Maybe a bit expensive given the construction, but if you make a lot of pizzas it's worth it for the convenience.

Have been making home pizzas for 50+ years. Always had to roll out the dough with a rolling pin. Even upgraded to a marble rolling pin and marble plate. Almost bought a sheeter at an auction one time. Glad I got outbid at $700 because the unit was very heavy and too large to store in our kitchen. Have looked for a home unit for years, and even considered building one. Was delighted to find and try this one. This unit is great. It may not be all that sophisticated, but it is constructed simply enough to be affordable. The adjustment method of turning set-screws makes sense for keeping it affordable, and they work quite well. After a few experiments, the number of turns needed for the correct thickness is easily learned. Of course it requires constant applications of flour on the rollers, but rolling pins require that also. We got it down to 3 passes through this unit with 3 increasingly smaller settings for a great pizza dough that was consistent in thickness (much better than with a rolling pin). Yes, there is a lot of flour to clean up, but putting parchment paper under the unit and on the counter makes it much easier, and saves a lot of flour for re-use. And the unit cleans up quite easily by spraying it off in the sink. We don't immerse and wash it. If a person understood the requirements of a good commercial sheeter and the cost to make it good, they will understand and appreciate this great little unit.

I purchased this dough roller to use for my dog treats. When it arrived I was disappointed in the construction, very cheap and light for the purpose. The base is particle board so too much water will cause issues. The rollers seem to be ok but when used the dough sticks even with added flour. The dough does NOT pass through smoothly and requires you to push the dough through. You would need a second person or three arms/hands: one to push the dough, one to turn the crank and the other to catch the dough and try to keep it from sticking and rolling back on itself. The other disappointment is that the limited instruction and care card are only written is Spanish so I had to their web site and it was all in Spanish, no English. I ended up Googling a Spanish to English translator and then typed in the Spanish to see what I needed to do. If a company is going to sell internationally then they need to provide instructions in at least English, French, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese and maybe a few more. Don't waste your time or money on this product. I returned it for a refund.

Good product. Can accommodate 15-18” dough. A bit difficult to stabilize but it does a good job thinning pizza dough. Requires a lot of flour to prevent dough from sticking to the rollers.

Was concerned enough by reviews and product description that I almost didn't buy this, but I figured I could give it a try and, worst-case, return it via Amazon's policy if things didn't work out. Glad to say things did work out. Almost no assembly, and I quickly put it to work making a dozen calzones and a couple roll-up desserts with raisins in the dough. Both went very well; godsend on the calzones.You do need flour, but it's not some wild amount of flour; typical amount you'd need when using a rolling pin (this machine is essentially just two fixed/adjustable rolling pins with ways to manipulate them). Everything's accessible, so it's easy to clean (I'm sure manufacturer wouldn't recommend, but I found you can fold a thin damp rag and hold it back while having the machine try rolling it through to clean the rollers quickly and easily; it slips, gently scrubbing the rollers). I didn't adjust my dough or techniques otherwise in either case for the machine; it just worked. Definitely feels a bit decadent at $250, but it's a good product; very easy on the hands and makes short work of the rolling process (and also useful to make very long folded breads/deserts you normally wouldn't attempt).
