With a lot of positive reviews I decided this might be a good way to make great pizza simply by using my 4 burner Weber gas grill. I’ve bec Me skeptical over the years but hey - why not give it a shot.The product took about a week or two to arrive, and it was very well packaged. I got to assembling it, and I must say I was pleasantly surprised at the decent build quality of the unit. Everything fitted where it should with reasonable tolerances, and the finish on the product was also excellent.I followed this directions to make some dough first. It’s a fairly typical good quality dough recipe, which translates to “it’s very good, but it’s complicated, messy and it takes a while”. It also makes a lot of dough - I’d say enough for 8 pizzas or more. In the end i’ll make it again but just know that good pizza Doug does take time and effort.I also followed the directions for the tomato sauce, and that was super simple and is actually excellent (tastes just like the tomato sauces in Italy).And so today I made two margarita pizzas with the dough and the tomato sauce, some good quality olive oil (make sure you know that it’s real because it’s worth it), some vegan mozzarella cheese (vegans here) and some fresh basil.On various reviews here on Amazon and also on some blogs, many commented how their pizzas burned, with the advice being to get the oven really hot (30 mins) and then keep rotating the pizza. So I was super careful. And color me impressed. I did make the first pizza a little large, like 13 inches or so, and this did make it difficult to load and rotate. However the pizza cooked top and bottom quite evenly as long as i kept rotating it about every 45 seconds or so for 3-4 minutes. This first pizza was delicious - great crispy crust, cooked on top, lovely textures and overall it was real pizza oven quality.I then created another one, this time about 11 inches across, and got to cooking it. Because of the slightly smaller size, it loaded easily and was much easier to rotate inside. Also, this time i went a bit slower, and so cooking for a bit longer (maybe 5 minutes this time) but still rotating every 45-60 seconds. This was even better and very much reminded me of the great pizza flavors I’ve experienced in Italy. You can see the heat radiating from the top, which cooks the pizza to perfection.So I’m very impressed - this works as advertised and delivers outstanding pizza for the fraction of the cost of building your own outdoor pizza oven. I’ll be using this every weekend for sure, especislly with guests. I am going to try some store bought pizza dough just to see what happens, but it’s definietly 5 stars from me.

Our family absolutely loves the BakerStone and the pizzas it makes. I received this as a father's day gift and we have used it every week since, even multiple times in a week. I see a lot of reviews here commenting on the heat up time being long, 25 - 30 minutes or more, but I have not had the same experience. The trick is, assuming your grill is large enough, to close the lid as much as possible. The BakerStone manual says to leave the grill lid open, but I'm not sure why you would want to just let all of the heat escape. I have a 5 burner grill, but only use 4 burners (with heat plates) to get the BakerStone up to pizza cooking temperature in about 10 minutes. Once the BakerStone is up to temperature, I even turn all of the burners to low. Even though my grill is quite large, I still cannot close the lid completely, but about 3/4's of the way, which seems be enough to keep the heat in and the warm-up time much, much shorter. Even though the grill lid is 3/4 closed, I still have access to put the pizza in, rotate, and remove without any problems or messes. As others have mentioned, pizza cook time is very fast, 4 - 5 minutes fast. At a recent pool party, I was able to cook enough for a group of 10 in a very short period of time with many stating it's the best pizza they've ever eaten. We've turned pizza night into a fun event for our young children by allowing them to select toppings and prepare the pizzas for cooking with a little help from Mom and Dad. The kids like to watch the pizzas cook and from these picky eaters, I have never received a complaint.PROS:- Easy to assemble and very sturdy- Heats to cooking temperature quickly (see comments about closing or partially closing grill lid)- Cooks pizza in 4-5 minutes- You have to stay on top of it, but pizza is cooked consistently throughout and crust is always perfectly crispyCONS:- Honestly can't really think of one, I love this product.

I received a Bakerstone Pizza Oven for my birthday last year, and after using it a half dozen times, I really like it. The assembly was very simple and straight forward, and the build quality is great (all powder coated metal parts, and precision cut stones). On my standard 4 burner Charbroil grill, this thing preforms very well. In about 20-25 minutes, the interior temp reaches between 600 - 650°F and stays there. This is for the bottom, the top and the sides - very even temperature all around. A 10" personal pizza will cook in about 4 minutes, and tastes great. It does have a taste that is typically associated with being 'wood fired', and that is from the charring the crust gets from the bottom stone. The reaction is different than the dough against stainless steel as in a typical oven. We've had a couple of build-your-own-pizza parties, and while kind of messy, are a big hit as people can experiment with toppings to suite their own tastes.Making your own pizza from scratch is kind of time consuming, and a pretty involved process, and so is not for everybody. But if you do like doing that, this is one of the best ovens to do it with. A friend has one of the gas fired dedicated stand alone pizza ovens, and it is difficult to get that one up to anything over 375°F (which takes a much longer time to cook, and doesn't get that charring), so this beats that $300 oven hands down.I think the only criticism I'd have is that the cover that it comes with is not for outdoor use, and disintegrates pretty quickly. I would like the option of a solid UV rated cover that allows you to store the oven outside. Other than that, I have no complaints about this at all.
