Rolling out dough by hand is a bear. You have to roll pie, pizza, pasta, cookie or croissant dough to perfect evenness with just a rolling pin and your hands, while ensuring it stays cold and solid. Enter Brod & Taylor’s countertop dough sheeter. It combines a sturdy, aluminum-cored board with dual aluminum rollers that easily adjust from 0–26 millimeters in thickness so you can roll doughs to uniform thickness quickly and effortlessly. According to our testers, who have used both commercial and at-home sheeters before, the board is what sets this one apart. It provides an elevated work surface to support soft, buttery doughs with no issue, and it’s reversible so you get two surfaces in one. As for the rolling component itself, it’s sturdy and stable, with suction cups that hold the stainless steel-and-aluminum body securely on your counter as you work. There are simple, clearly marked adjustment knobs on either side of the rollers, which allow you to select a precise thickness within one or two millimeters. (The 0–6 millimeter range adjusts in 1-millimeter increments and the 6–26 millimeter range adjusts in 2-millimeter increments.) Once you’ve selected your desired thickness, crank the handle to pass your dough (and the board) through the rollers; the manual operation means there’s no electricity cost or awkward, tangled cords to manage. Short on counter space? Don’t worry—this sheeter folds up and comes with a sleek storage case to keep it safely stowed in between uses.
Commercial sheeters cost tens of thousands of dollars and weigh hundreds of pounds. Now you can have a countertop sheeter that costs under $1,000 and turn your kitchen into a professional bakery.
