I bought this because I decorate cakes with fondant and gumpaste. It's very hard to find the right tools in my area so I have to improvise. I use this tool to create different edible objects for cakes.
It's easy to use but a little time consuming. The press is like a screw...instead of just pumping the material out, you have to twist, and twist, and twist. The discs are great; you can create so many things!!
It is hard to clean, but my standards of clean are probably a little higher since it's being used for food.
Overall, I would say it is a good investment for me.

This clay extruder should not be considered just a toy. It is a wonderful accessory for clay artists, beginners as well as seasoned. It would be great if on the packaging there was mention of other accessories available and a picture or two of completed projects. That, to my way of thinking would promote sales. The Makin Extruder is the best in this price range, my opinion. Do buy one and search out projects on the net. Kids, with some supervision, with patience and a love of working with polymer clay would be amazed what they could accomplish using their imagination and this tool.

For those of you who have tried to force hard clay through a sub par extruder you will love this! It makes clay extrusion a snap! The only problem that I can see so far is that the black ring that comes with it is awkward.
Honest reviews on Makin's Professional Ultimate Clay Extruder
I bought this extruder from a local store for use with fondant and gumpaste. This extruder is definitely easier to use than the push models. The twist handle, though still tiring from the repetitive motion, is much easier and takes less strength. That said, the metal is very thin on this model, and the threaded ends where you screw on the cap that holds the disc are very weak. I knew from a few other reviews that this model was delicate, so I tried to be gentle with it. I wish I'd headed the reviews. Mine literally split along the threading during the second use, and I had to return it. I bought the Walnut Hollow extruder as a replacement. The Walnut Hollow has a more comfortable crank handle and a more sturdy, thicker metal design than the Makin, with all the same discs AND a plastic storage case. I'm more pleased with the Walnut Hollow extruder. Walnut Hollow Clay Extruder Set

This is a wonderful tool to use with fondant and gumpaste. I have always hand rolled my ropes which took forever and never were perfectly even. With a twist of the handle and the right tip I get perfect ropes, hair, tassels and other shapes. I highly recommend this tool for cake decorators and sculpters.
