    Hi Melanie - I bought the Cookie one earlier this year an love it. Just be prepared to do a lot of de-greasing when it arrives...and a tip, don't unpack it straight onto the living room carpet as I started to do!

    Thanks for that, it got unpacked in the shed, that was a two woman job! I've only degreased the smooth rollers, figured it couldn't hurt to leave it on the other moving parts :-)

    I am a part time volunteer in an ESOL class, so what bothers me is: can one refer to a set of rolling mills as one does to a pair of trousers?

    I am with ScottyC on this one.

    Its got to be Durston every single time.

    Like ScottyC I have had mine 23 years and they are in service every single day and have not had any problems with them at all.

    Shop around for the best deals and the cheapest on Durston mills.

    Buy British, buy the best
