I first bought this roller a few months ago. I loved it. Clay didn't stick to it, it was durable and solid, and very easy to clean. A few months after using it, I noticed that the roller's surface began to crack and split. I honestly have no idea why it did this (I keep it in a closed bin with other tools I use), but now the surface chips off and has been getting worse and worse, leaving printed marks (from areas that have chipped off) when I roll out a piece of clay and sometimes chipping off into my clay (which then makes me have to take the chipped off bits out of the clay).
The rolling pin was good while it lasted, but I'm going to have to purchase another one and, sadly, it won't be another one of these.
