Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Ok, so these negative reviews are totally unwarranted. If you dont follow the directions, its not going to work. Two key things to get it right: 1) You HAVE to get it hot enough. A 4 or 5 burner outdoor grill does the trick. Anything else and it will take forever/wont work. 2) You HAVE to use cornmeal. If you dont, you will have a mess on your hands. Yes, it takes about 30 mins to warm up, longer than the manufacturer says. Each pizza takes about 4 mins to cook. The first time I didnt use cornmeal and it I had to toss the pizza in the trash. Since then never did it without cornmeal and it turns out perfect. I bought this from Kickstarter and now its sold on Amazon, BBB, etc. Going to buy a second one just in case they stop selling it. I would highly recommend it.My pizzas have never turned out better as they have with the bakerstone. Pros: 1) Looks gorgeous 2) Cooks quickly and evenly 3) Good weight 4) Nice and big on the inside as well as on the outside 5) Assembly was quick 6) Looks in water / air into crust. Moist and crunchy crust. Easily the best pizzas you will ever make. Cons: 1) Takes too long to get hot 2) Heat dissipates quickly 3) Tough to clean on the inside (build up of cornmeal, dropped toppings, etc.) Ill try to post some pictures. Updated as of: 09/05/2014 I have now used this grill over 50 times. Its gets better and easier every time I use it. So far this summer I have gone through 3 tanks of gas because of the regular use of the pizza oven. I used to clean and take the oven inside after every use. Now I just leave it outside (covered). It has held up remarkably well. No rust at all, the stones seem to be holding up well, no cracking or breaking that i can see. The pain on the sides of the oven has bubbled a but, but not sure if thats due to the quality of the paint or of the oil flames that flare up on the grill and scorch the paint. Its handled the abuse and damage I dish i pretty well. Still havent gotten a second one, but I definitely will...I would highly recommend this product. I love pizza and making pizza dough and fresh pizza is a blast. Good pizza dough consistency is a science not an art. Mix the ingredients in the proper order at the right time. Using this oven I have done parties for over 50 ppl and it turns out 12-14 pizzas in less than an hour. The keys still remain the same. You must be patient in getting the grill hot (I have an old, low BTU grill from target and it takes about 40 mins to heat). On a hot sunny day with no wind, it takes about 25/30 mins to heat up. And you have to be liberal in the use of your cornmeal. Make sure you use a nice wood pizza peel to get the pizza in the oven and a nice metal one to move it around and take it out. If you let the pizza sit too long on the peel, the cornmeal goes inside the dough and its tough to slide off. So have fun but be quick about it. Good luck! Ill post another update in a few more months. Update: 07/04/216 Decided to do another update because of a question that was asked. Its now coming up on 2+ years. Still works great. Still LOVE making pizza in it. No regrets.
