American METALCRAFT, Inc. 16' x 18' Aluminum Pizza Peel with 12' Wood Handle 3016, 30-Inch, Silver

A lightweight peel for 15"-16' inch pizzas with a handle just long enough for good on and off loading of the pizza. Works very well and fits in a double wide cabinet with ease. Good sturdy design and build that should last a very long time.

I purchased this item for a slightly different purpose. I use it when I am BBQing pork shoulders, hams, and/or Boston butts. When BBQing a cooker full of pork it can be difficult sometimes to get under that piece of meat and turn it over or just remove it from the cooker. This fit the bill nicely. My first worry was that it would be flimsily and not hold the weight of the meat that I was picking up. Not going to be a problem. I was very pleased with the construction of this from end to end. I deal with sheet metal of all different types on a daily basis. I found this to be a good sturdy piece of metal in fact it is perfect for what I need it for. This pizza peel can very easily pick up the heaviest of meats that I can possibly throw at it. My other worry would be where the metal meets the wood and would that be a weak point or not. Not! This is put together nicely and I believe it will last me for a long time to come. My overall opinion is that if you want this to be a great long lasting pizza peel then this is the one for you and it’s at a great price. I also think that this is perfect for whatever you can come up with. I will be buying another one or four for all of my many needs. Yes, I did. I paid full price for this item. And you receive my opinion on how I feel about the product after I’ve fully tested it. This I enjoy doing and I hope that I’ve helped someone come to informed purchasing decision.

I like its short, less storage space needed in a small home kitchen. its solid and used it many times and it works well and its well made, will last for years

The plastic protective sheet is a pain as you can't take off what's under the handle connection. It's fortunate the product is not designed to remain in the oven or get hot, or this would be a deal-breaker. They should have peeled away or cut the part of the plastic protection under the handle. As a previous reviewer said, it is a great product, but has workmanship issues. The one I got had both edges of the blade's connection to the handle lifted up and had to be hammered down, and there were roughnesses on the outer edges (not sure if it's the manufacturer or Amazon, but likely manufacturer as the bag it came wrapped in was pristine). Also, the bottom edge was sharp, not enough to cut, but sharper than expected. Sanding it smooth (and sanding down the damage) caused me to scratch the bottom face, but at least the edge is smooth now. It is big enough to handle a Costco pizza, which is great, but make sure they don't cut it or it's still a pain trying to get the sliced back on after heating. The size is a small problem with cleaning, depending on your sink size, but it's a must for a large family cooking up large pizzas. Don't regret the purchase, but just wish it came better "out of the box."

This worked perfectly for me. As others have mentioned, make sure you use ample amounts of cornmeal or semolina flour or similar between the dough and peel to make sure the dough won't stick. I make thin crust pizzas (~14+" dia.) and cook directly on a pizza stone to get a crispy crust, so I assemble them right on the peel. Note: If it doesn't move on the peel when you're done assembling the raw pizza, use a spatula or something to lift up the crust to sneak more cornmeal below the dough until it moves freely. (If not, you'll be cussing, as it will NOT come off in the oven either. The TOPPINGS will, but the dough will not). Getting the baked pizzas back out of the oven with this is easy too...no need for a wooden peel to remove finished pizzas, just keep the peel level, and all will be well. No flex on this peel, and no gripes from me about sharp edges...This is well made.

I'm absolutely thrilled with my American METALCRAFT, Inc. 16' x 18' Aluminum Pizza Peel with 12' Wood Handle! As a pizza enthusiast, I was looking for a peel that could handle large pies with ease, and this one delivers. The extra-large surface area (16' x 18') is a dream come true, allowing me to slide in and out of the oven with confidence. The aluminum construction is durable and lightweight, making it easy to maneuver, while the 12' wood handle provides a comfortable grip. I've used this peel for numerous pizza parties, and it's been a hit every time. The size and quality have made me the go-to pizza maker among my friends and family. Highly recommended! If you're serious about making pizzas at home, do yourself a favor and invest in this incredible peel. You won't regret it! P.S. The price is unbeatable for the quality and size you get. Don't hesitate, order one today! Just make sure you can handle the size...

This peel works very well, and was a fantastic price. I love mine and will be measuring my parents outdoor stone pizza oven to see if it will fit through the door of theirs so I can gift them one as well since they are constantly throwing pizza parties and even with their 3 current peels it seems that at times either the baker (my dad) is waiting for a raw pizza from the assembler (my stepmom) or the assembler is waiting for a peel. While their wood pizza peels are nice looking I hear too much cursing at certain points during the pizza retrieval process to let this continue. From what I've read around it seems that wood peels are best for getting pizzas into the oven since they have better release and steel peels are better for retrieving the pizzas as they are typically thinner, have a larger peel size, and have a longer handle. I do have to mention that even though I pulled out a measuring tape to get an idea of the measurements before ordering this peel was larger than I was expecting. It was delivered to me when my opposite set of parents was visiting (mom and stepdad) and they were laughing at the size of the box and when I pulled out the peel they initially though it was a gigantic metal spatula. Even though the peel is very large it works for my relatively small apartment kitchen, I just need to keep the counters a bit clearer than normal. So far I have had no release problems with this peel and the long length has kept my knuckles scorch free. Also, small children (and pizza naive adults) will easily believe this is a gigantic spatula and you will get a lot of funny looks and giggles.

Solid product for the price

la utilizzo come pala per pizza nel mio forno a legna, robusta e leggera,

Great deal. Nice and big. Looks well made. Really happy to have this to make our BIG pizzas with. We previously had a smaller peel and it was awesome but our pizzas got bigger and it got a bit messy. Very pleased we found one this size.

Diese Pizzaschaufel fällt durch erhebliche Fertigungsmängel auf. Nieten sind ungenau angebracht. Die Schaufel selbst ist sehr scharfkantig, teilweise verbeult und den Preis nicht wert

Buona qualita

Idéntica a la descripción . Muy buena calidad
