I got a call one evening, prior to the holidays. Check out this rolling pin, you NEED to buy it, my friend said. I have a rolling pin, what do I need with another one? This one has discs you add to the side to measure your dough thickness. The price was absolutely amazing! I scored it at a low, low price of $6.38! Yes, that's correct! A savings of almost $20!
Now, let me just say, I love to bake - biscuits, breads, cinnamon rolls, etc. When recipe called for X inches I'd do one of two things - I'd either guess or I'd take a wooden ruler and measure - what a pain in the @$$. The beautiful thing about this rolling pin is that there is no more guess work involved. You just place the discs on for the thickness you need, and you roll out your dough - it's just that easy.
The pin is just as easy to clean up as any other wooden rolling pin. I handwash the plastic discs, but I'm sure they could probably be washed in the top rack of the dishwasher.
As for the only downside, because of the width of the rolling pin (13.5 in.) add a little when the discs are on, you can't roll out wide pieces of dough. Most of what I bake don't require rolling out over 12 inches, but for things like big batch cookies, we separate our dough and roll out, problem solved.
I love this rolling pin and wish I'd bought more to gift when they were priced so low before the holidays. If I ever see them that cheap again, I will be sure to buy some to give as wedding presents or Christmas gifts!

Prepare uniform dough every time
Joseph Joseph's Adjustable Rolling Pin will take the guess work out of preparing pizza and pie crusts, cookies, lasagne sheets, and filo pastry. The rolling pin has four pairs of colorful, removable discs which raise the rolling pin to the required thickness of 1/16-inch, 1/6-inch, 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch off the counter. This clever design will ensure that the pastry or dough is rolled to an even thickness throughout. The rings are held to the rolling pin with plastic screws. Also etched into the wood is a width measurement guide. Hand-wash for best results. Do not submerge in water; dry immediately after washing.
Removable Discs
It comes with four sets of removable discs that raise the rolling surface by different amounts, to create exactly the required pastry thickness
Simply unscrew ends to change discs
Pin is made of beech wood and measures 13.6 inches long in length without the rings attached and measures 17 inches in length with the rings attached. The pin measures 1.75 inches in diameter.
Measurements on the rolling pin itself
Roll your dough to the exact size required. There are measurements in inches and centimeters etched into the wooden rolling pin.

High maintenance
I'm mostly kidding when I say this rolling pin is high maintenance, but really there are a couple of things to know. First, I wish Joseph Joseph would have sealed the wood with a food-safe wax before boxing it because the wood comes dry as a bone. The care instructions tell you to dry the wood part with a towel right after washing so that it doesn't absorb that water and then desiccate as it dries, which would lead to splitting. Definitely pay attention to that. Secondly, they tell you to oil your pin when needed. Well, it needs it immediately out of the box. I oiled it (with Boos Block board cream, though only in my dreams do I own a Boos Block board) and left it for about 4 hours. It completely absorbed the cream and still looked dry at that point, so I added another dime amount and left it overnight. When I wiped the excess off in the morning there was barely a hint on the paper towel, which really shows how dry and "thirsty" this wood is in the box. I suspect that’s where all the complaints of splitting come from. Looking at the uploaded pictures of split pins they look extremely dry. If your wood is looking white it is dry. It really takes about 30 seconds to oil your pin (or board, or wooden spoons, or knife handles) so it's definitely worth doing. I do wish Joseph Joseph had sanded the wood with a finer finish as well, it is much rougher than I expected. Overall it’s a clever, functional, and attractive design.

I got this as a gift for my mom and she loves it. She saw it online and thought it was just the coolest thing so I ordered it for her. I was very pleased with the quality. It's a nice and sturdy wooden pin and the rings on the edges are a hard sturdy plastic. She loves the different colors not just because they're cute but also it makes it easier to identify the different sizes. It even has measurements on the pin itself! You can clean it just as you would any other rolling pin.
Definitely recommend this for any baker wishing to make their life a little easier. So far my mom has really enjoyed using it. I hope this means there will be more baked goods around the kitchen for me to enjoy! ;)

This is a very helpful tool in my kitchen. I believe every home baker should have this rolling pin on hand. It takes the guesswork out of making cookies, donuts, pie crusts*, and so much more.
It does have some limitations. It's not wide enough. *This makes it difficult to roll out pie crusts for typical 9" and 10" pies, which require crusts that are 14"+ in diameter, but for a "bar pie" that goes in a rectangular dish, this is a great tool.
Tea cakes and sugar cookies are a breeze to roll out with this pin. My aunt borrowed this rolling pin to make 6 dozen tea cakes for a wedding, and they all turned out beautifully. The tea cakes weren't uneven, they were perfectly flat, which helped them cook more evenly during the baking process.
This tool can be used to laminate dough for French pastries, such as croissants and puff pastry. It can be used to roll out dough for pasta, which has been a great help for me, due to the fact that I don't own a pasta making appliance.
My tapered rolling pin still has its place in my kitchen. It picks up the slack when my adjustable rolling pin can't handle a job.
Overall, it's a decent product but could use some redesigning.
I've attached a picture of my Aunt's lovely tea cake recipe! It's great and very simple. I recommend decorating with a buttercream or royal icing. Enjoy!
