4 out of 5 stars Excellent Thick Baking Stone   February 26, 2010
J. Gant (Somerville, MA USA)

My stone arrived triple boxed, surrounded in multiple layers of bubble wrap & packing peanuts. It was in excellent condition.

The actual stone is about 1/2" thick, with several feet to raise it off the floor of my oven. I set the stone directly on the bottom of my gas oven at all times, and it really does help maintain the temperature when baking in general. My preheat times are a very reasonable extra 10 minutes, and my oven cycles on much less often with the warm stone.

My first bread did get a bit burnt on the bottom, but the it was still good. The recipe I was following wasn't for using a stone, so it needs to be adjusted. The stone is now nicely blackened, which is good for the stone. If it gets dirty, I plan to just turn the oven on to 500 degrees for 30 minutes and burn off any of the contaminates. No need to really wash it with soap or anything. Just the occasional wipe down and rinse.



5 out of 5 stars This does the job.   February 11, 2010

There are no moving parts, so "It Works"! It's big enough to accomodate a small pizza or loaf of bread. Those things are, in fact, crisper with than without. It stains if you get oil or sauce on it, but that is not a problem if you clean off the excess. It is small enough to easily remove from the oven and wash it in the sink.

I had been holding out not wanting to spend money on an item I thought was unnecessary. I now wish that I'd bought one of these years ago - it's great! I use it primarily for baking bread, which it does beautifully, and the occasional pizza, which produces wonderful results.


2 out of 5 stars Chemical smell!   January 25, 2010
Timothy Morris (Littleton, CO)

I bought this stone in April of '09 and didn't use it until September. When I used it for the first time it gave off a foul chemical smell that permeated the entire house. The reason I am giving it two stars instead of one is that it did bake the pizza evenly, which I ate (not sure I should have considering the chemical smell), but Amazon did refund the purchase entirely. So, beware, it appears some people have received the chemical-smelling stone and others not.


1 out of 5 stars Same problem as many report... cracking   January 15, 2010

There is a crack in the stone, and I've only used it twice. I do not recommend this product.
