I have the small one for the face and love it  I stopped using it for a bit because I couldn't tell if exercises were firming my skin or the roller, and therefore couldn't properly evaulate my exercise regimen. It really does thicken the skin (I use it 2x / week on average, but I have fragile skin), even if it's not the most relaxing massage ever. Only use it at night if you have sensitive skin. I end up covered in tiny red marks that take a little while to fade - the only drawback.
soda173 (ebay) was very professional and courteous, and I received my roller in only two and a half weeks. |

I bought Tonya Zavasta's Rolling Bed of Pins in 2009. Last year I purchased the smaller-sized Lyapko roller on eBay.
I like them both; they leave my face feeling nicely stimulated. However, I prefer the small roller. It's a little easier to move around the face and get into some of the smaller areas, like around the eyes. It's lighter weight, of course, and just feels more suitable for facial work.
I usually spend five minutes rolling it over my face before using my NF Trinity. I use the large roller for my scalp, as it's said to be beneficial for the hair.
To clean the rollers, I have a spray bottle of 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide that I mist them with. I emailed Penny at Tonya's site to make sure the spray wouldn't damage the pins or cause them to rust, and she said she didn't think it would rust or damage them in any way. |

I have both Tonya's (Universal) and Face one.
I like Face one much better, and use it on my face/neck for a few minutes a day (on top of topicals).

Mine is the small one which is just under 1.5 inches wide and just over 1.7 in diameter, I guess to me it seems the spikes look scarier (hence bigger) in the pic than they seem in real life! 
Yours sounds about the same size wise to me!
ETA: It could be just the screen size and my display settings! |
Yeah, it does sound like we both have the same size. It occurred to me after I posted that it might have something to do with the display settings.
And yes! Those spikes do look pretty scary!  |
