Comments about Rolla Roasters Marshmallow and Hot Dog Roasting Forks - Pair:

First you should know, I take smores very seriously. With that being said I ended up with these marshmelllow roasters and am very happy I did.

The best part is that they are made of stainless steel so they rust or corrode like many of the other roaster out there. Next they designed the fork to rotate with respect to the handle and they put a little plastic part on there that lets you rotate the fork with a finger. Its very nice to be able to keep rotating your mashmellow one handed. It gives you the control to achieve the perfectly browned 'mellow that we should all strive to achieve. The telescoping design makes these much more compact than other models. The only downside to that is there is a bit of flex when you have hotdogs on there. Not bad and not a concern at all with marshmellows.

If you demand excellence out of your smores, except no other!

Comments about Rolla Roasters Marshmallow and Hot Dog Roasting Forks - Pair:

These are the best roasters around. They're longer than the competition to let you stay farther back from a really hot fire. They also roll very smoothly and help you toast anything evenly. After accidentally sitting on one that was extended and bending it slightly (they are pretty skinny and lightweight though) it easily bent back into shape.

I even stuck a hot dog with cheese on a roll on the roaster to toast the bun and melt the cheese all at once and it wasn't a problem!

My fiancé loves marshmellows and uses these all the time, but marshmellow goo can be very difficult to clean off of the ends. If they could do something to make it easier to clean it'd be perfect. Expensive but worth it.

Comments about Rolla Roasters Marshmallow and Hot Dog Roasting Forks - Pair:

I am proud to say the first time I used these was in my hometown, just miles from where they were made. We roasted sausages and marshmallows over the fire in the backyard fire pit my Dad built. They are fun and easy to use for all ages. We take them camping and give them as gifts to friends who like sitting by a campfire with us.

Comments about Rolla Roasters Marshmallow and Hot Dog Roasting Forks - Pair:

If you have a campfire, kids and marshmellows these are a must have. Yes we had the coat hangers but after breaking these sticks out the coat hangers are a thing of the past. You know that these are a winner when your kids say " hey dad look, you don't have to keep turning it in your hand, just roll this little black wheel with your thumb.
Great product, a little hard to clean, but its made in USA and its made of stainless steel. A must have for serious smores eaters.

Comments about Rolla Roasters Marshmallow and Hot Dog Roasting Forks - Pair:

Bought these on impulse thinking they were way too pricey, but after a week of camping love them. Best part is they store very short, and extend very long, compared to others. Collapse down like an old fashioned antenna. I thought the roller feature was a little gimmicky when I got them, but found myself slowing turning marshmallows with my thumb all the time! The case is nice for storing, also.

Comments about Rolla Roasters Marshmallow and Hot Dog Roasting Forks - Pair:

Our Cub Scout pack bought a couple dozen of these 5-6 years ago. They have been on many campouts, packed/cleaned/transported by several different people, and used by kids of all ages without the most ideal care. They have held up fairly well. We still have about 6 that aren't broken. The main problem is that the extensible part is like a radio antenna. Once it gets bent, there is no way to bend it back like new. Also, if a boy pulls it out with too much force, it can be pulled apart and then it's never the same again.I see others claiming that these are easy to clean. Maybe they are easier than other toasting forks, but when I'm the one who has to clean the burned marshmallows off of these, I growl about it! The "roller" part of this item is just a gimmick; it didn't turn too well but most boys didn't even realize that they are supposed to roll. They just twist it with their wrist anyway.We need to buy another dozen to replace the broken ones. I have searched online and found cheaper versions of extendable skewers. The prices range from 50-90% of REI's price. None of the others are as long as the REI version. The "slider" version is harder to clean. Another brand is chrome plated steel, not stainless. Plus, when you add in the cost of shipping, you get a compromise product for almost the same cost as these. Considering all the factors, we will definitely go back to REI to get these Rolla-Roasters.

Comments about Rolla Roasters Marshmallow and Hot Dog Roasting Forks - Pair:

We use this product at home and away to roast hotdogs and marshmellows.
Product is easy to clean and store.
The price is great as they come in sets of two. The overall length when completly extended is perfect. The fork end could be bent if not careful.
It's not really weak but don't use it as a light sabre.
I highly reccommend this product!!

Comments about Rolla Roasters Marshmallow and Hot Dog Roasting Forks - Pair:

I didn't even know they made marshmallow roasters until I stumbled onto these in my local REI store. After I purchased them I saw some at the local big box stores and none of them were as nice as these.

These are nice and sturdy, even when extended all the way out. Growing up I always used unbent wire coat hangers and they kind of flopped around a lot. I was worried about my kids being able to hold them and they didn't have any problems with the Rolla Roasters.

The only con was not being able to clean them off easily. I stuck them in the fire to get most of the marshmallow goo off and then scrubbed them and there was a little bit of stuff left on them. Also, they didn't turn too well, which wasn't really a problem because of the rounded handle.

My friends brought these marshmallow roasting sticks on a camping trip. They seemed a little goofy, but now I want some myself. It’s a must-have for people that love roasted marshmallows. They seemed well made and sturdy. I really like the telescoping sticks and turning handle.

These things are great for marshmallows and hot dogs. I've used the same pair for three years and dozens of camping trips. A mainstay of my camp kitchen kit.
