ProCook Pizza Stone - Round - 28cm - Ceramic Stone for Homemade or Shop Bought Pizza

So, I've had a pizza stone previously that came with my electric oven. I didn't realise just how expensive they were to buy separately and was just going to soldier on with my stained one until I spotted this - much more the price point I was envisioning.I did wonder how it would come packaged as they are relatively fragile. It came in a large box with the large bubblewrap covering the base of the box, the pizza stone in a thin (non-recyclable) plastic bag, another sheet of bubble wrap and then the rest of the box crammed full with paper packing roll. Even the most determined delivery operative would have to go some to break it! Although it meant for a lot of recycling I can see why it would need so much packing and I was pleased with the level of thought and care given to maing sure you got your product in one piece.I was disappointed to find that it is only one sided because the base has ridges on it that mean you couldn't really put a pizza on it. However, the instructions tell you to dust lightly with flour before putting it in a cold oven to heat up. This is a game changer, I really wish I had known about this trick before. The pizza slides off so easily once cooked and no nasty sticks or stains. How it will hold up to a really loaded cheese pizza I don't know but I am optimistic.Good size for cooking a 9" pizza which is all I really need it for so that works - plus a 12" pizza won't physically fit in my oven without part of the crust touching the glass door.It does say to wash in warm water. Due to the porous nature of the stone I have no intention of washing it, that way leads cracks and breakages when absorbed water turns to steam - not going to be pretty methinks.Budget price but a premium product.

They make good pizzas but soon look decidedly dirty.

Arrived quickly, packaged very well. Great for the money compared to similar products. I will need to purchase a pizza shovel as its difficult to slide on and off the hot stone whilst its in the oven and stone doesn't move/slide well, presume they're all like this though. I follow the care instructions implicitly as have read a few have broken. I have used it twice so far will see how it stands up to multi use but so far so good. Pizzas from it taste better than shop bought acording to my grown lads.

I bought it some time a go but firstly I wanted to test the termal rezistant, beacuse of some bad reviews I read in here.It's a very good product that las if used correctly, must be put in the oven from cold... Will crak only if you put it in when the oven it is hot.Only reazon I give less stars its because it's is stain:)

Cheap and cheerful pizza stone- as a pizza novice this is ideal. Takes a bit of pre- heating ( at least 30 mins at 200) but works fine.I don’t worry about marks left after use, it will be heat sterilised after all!

I've never used a pizza stone before and bought this to try out on our outdoor wood burner. I've actually only used it in the oven so far, but that pizza came out infinitely better than my usual pizzas on a normal tray. Crispy bottom! Great purchase.

Still not 100% it has made a difference to either homemade or frozen pizzas.

Cracked on first try
