Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Old Stone Oven 14-inch Round Baking Stone
Customer Review: Good Price - Good Delivery - Great For Baking Bread
Summary: 5 Stars
Although this product is sold as a pizza oven stone, it's also great for baking light, fluffy scratch biscuits and loaves of homemade French or Italian bread. Both come out lighter and more evenly cooked than from a baking pan or baking sheet in the same oven.
I love the results from my baking stone and have been thrilled with my purchase. You'll find that it's heavier than many other baking stones, so be prepared to get a good grip on it when you're handling it.
Customer Review: Stone arrived chipped
Summary: 1 Stars
Arrived with a large chip on the edge. Amazon's packing seemed adequate but the stone came in a cardboard box from the factory with no padding. I'm returning it for a refund since I have no reason to believe another shipment would fare any better, and I have better things to do than schlep it back and forth to and from the post office.
Update: I purchased a stone at a local kitchen wares shop where I could actually view the item before purchasing. I got a decent stone at a reasonable price. Sometimes mom-and-pops are actually preferable to mail order.
Customer Review: Good value, does the job
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a really solid product for anyone looking to bake pizza or bread in the oven. I purchased this after buying the book Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking. This stone works great for baking the few types of bread that I've made, and I've also cooked pizza on it.Customer Review: 1st one arrived broken...exchange was EASY and stone is great, buy one!
Summary: 5 Stars
Several people have left poor reviews because the stone arrived broken. I have had good experiences with Amazon and decided to risk it. Sure enough, my first stone arrived in 2 pieces, split down the middle. I filled out an exchange request online that evening and had my new stone within a few days - it's been living in my oven for a week now, made pizza twice, focaccia once and is as good as the happy reviewers indicate. Manufacturer says stone will harden with use - don't let concern about breakage sway you, this is a fine stone and it is trivial to exchange if it arrives broken.Customer Review: Arrived broken, as with many other reviewers
Summary: 1 Stars
I do my best to purchase everything through Amazon.com (I get points back from my Amazon Visa :)
I had seen that some people complained that their pizza stone arrived broken. I rolled the dice and lost. It arrived cracked in half, quite useless.
I'm curious what percentage of this item actually arrives at the customer in one piece. It looks good, and those who receive it seem to like it. I just suggest anyone purchasing it be comfortable with the idea of returning the item as well.
