Either electric or non electric.

It doesn't have to cook the rotis , even if it just makes the dough balls flat & circular , that's enough.

So you don't have to use a rolling pin.

Any recommendations ?

I have seen some wooden & cast Iron ones mostly for Tortillas online ..but none in store so far in GTA

Something like this , Flipkart India has it for around Rs- 1,500

Or something like this ( Non Electric ) ..which is just a press , but doesn't cook.

If i ask someone from India to get me the Jaipan Jumbo Roti Maker from Flipkart , will it work in Canada ?

I think there will be VOLTAGE issues & the PLUG that goes into the electric outlet will lead to issues , right ?

I know of the mechanical one though we use it for puris . We brought it from Patel Bros. Hyw 27 Etobicoke.

A search on the charcha reveals these 2 earlier threads :

The product's effectiveness is suspect .. Don't know why do I remember reading this at some India grocery store perhaps Patel Bros. itself : 'Roti makers sold would bot be taken back or exchanged ' ..

The above links also do not speak good about the product .

We use the mechanical iron one for flattening of puri dough and do not have any problem with that .

How about this one?

You can have a machine for FREE.

Usage cost for you would be approximately $20 per hour whenever you use it and you need use it a minimum of 4 hours each time you use it. Some maintenance costs may also apply. The best part is, it not only makes dough but also cooks.
