Best Rolling Pin? My Forearms Can't Take It Anymore!
Decorating By CakeInfatuation Updated 10 Aug 2010 , 12:04am by tigerhawk83
I have a 20" Wilton rolling pin. After just a couple of cakes my arms are aching a LOT these days. I'd like to get a rolling pin with handles and ball bearings but not sure which is best.
I'm thinking I want at least an 18" barrel. Any suggestions???
I have an aluminum rolling pin that is I think 18"long (the barrel only, not including the handles) and I love it, but I understand how you feel...even with that, when I have several cakes to cover...my arms and shoulders are killing me 
I'm going to get a sheeter next year someway, somehow! 
I use a marble rolling pin. The weight of the marble helps me roll out my fondant faster without much effort.
I bought this bad boy from Sams Club on-line and LOVE it...not to mention it was only about $17! there's an 18" and a 15" one.

The price will show up ($16.88 for the 18") once you put it into your cart.
Good Luck

I have this one as well and absolutely love it 
Well worth the money.
I've been using the OXO Good Grips rolling pin - it has a longer barrel, is relatively heavy so I don't have to push as hard - and I love the offset handles - keeps your knuckles off the counter.
