Best Buds Metal Rolling Tray Large — Your Herbs Deserve a Proper Surface
The Best Buds Metal Rolling Tray Large is a heavy-duty metal rolling tray measuring 17.5 x 27.5 x 2cm, built to give you a clean, flat, lipped surface that keeps your herb exactly where it should be. If you've been rolling on book covers, laptop lids, or the back of your phone, this is the upgrade you didn't know you needed — until you stop losing half your grind to the carpet.
Which Design Should You Pick?
The Best Buds Metal Rolling Tray Large comes in four variants, each with its own graphic print. The tray dimensions and material are identical across all four — this is purely a style choice.
| Variant | SKU | Vibe |
|---|---|---|
| Dabbing | HS0812 | For the extract enthusiasts — bold, concentrate-culture artwork |
| Pineapple Express | HS0813 | Tropical, film-nod energy — the crowd favourite |
| Purple Haze | HS0814 | Classic psychedelic palette — looks good on a shelf |
| Smoke Me | HS0815 | Playful, Alice-in-Wonderland-adjacent — conversation starter |
No wrong answer here. We'd lean towards the Pineapple Express if you want something that pops on a coffee table, or Purple Haze if you prefer something a bit more understated. They all clean up the same way.

Complete your rolling setup: pair this tray with a proper metal grinder — the SLX or Black Leaf 4-piece will sit nicely in the corner of the tray while you work. A set of unbleached rolling papers and some glass filter tips round things out. Everything stays on the tray, nothing ends up between the sofa cushions.
Why a Dedicated Rolling Tray Actually Matters
We've watched people roll on everything from vinyl records to iPad screens. It works — technically. But here's what actually happens: you lose herb over the edge, crumbs end up in your keyboard, and sticky residue builds up on surfaces that weren't designed for it. A magazine might seem flat until you try to sweep kief off a glossy cover and realise half of it is stuck to Rihanna's face.
The Best Buds Metal Rolling Tray Large solves this with a 2cm raised lip around the entire perimeter. That lip is the whole point. Anything that falls off your paper, spills from your grinder, or gets nudged by your elbow stays on the tray. At 27.5cm wide, you've got enough room for your grinder, papers, filter tips, and the actual rolling — all without things crowding each other. It fits on your lap, which matters if your rolling station is the sofa rather than a desk.
The honest limitation: it's a flat metal tray, not a magnetic closing case. It doesn't have compartments, lids, or built-in storage. If you need something you can throw in a bag and take to a mate's house without spilling, a tray with a magnetic lid would serve you better. But for home use — sitting on your coffee table, always ready — this is the format that works. We've had the same style of metal tray behind our counter for years. They don't dent, the print doesn't peel, and they wipe clean in seconds.
How to Use Your Best Buds Rolling Tray
- Place the tray on a flat surface or your lap. The 17.5 x 27.5cm footprint fits comfortably on most surfaces — roughly the size of a small chopping board.
- Set your grinder, papers, and filter tips on the tray before you start. Having everything within the lip means you're not reaching across the table mid-roll.
- Grind your herb directly over the tray. Any overflow lands on the metal surface instead of the floor.
- Roll as normal. Use the flat surface to your advantage — it's easier to tuck and seal on a rigid, smooth surface than on a textured one.
- After rolling, tilt the tray gently towards one corner to collect any leftover herb. The raised edges funnel everything neatly — nothing wasted.
- Clean the tray with a damp cloth or paper towel. For sticky residue, a quick wipe with isopropyl alcohol brings it back to fresh. Dry it off and you're done.
