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.

It’s all about the peel if you make homemade pizza! It’s the one item when bigger is not better. This is the perfect size peel to fit my small Amana conventional oven, leave me with a little wiggle space to maneuver around & land perfectly on the baking steel, PLUS... enough area space to make decent sized New York pizzas! Definitely measure your oven interior space first to make sure this will fit! This peel is exactly what I wanted: a long wooden solid handle (not a foldable/removable) that is comfortable to use, with a good size aluminum paddle for stretching & topping dough, as well as sturdy blade that is easy to slide under & lift without any trouble. Period. This peel has performed perfectly each and every time and not only for pizza! It’s comfortable to use and maneuver. I have had perfect slides with no issues of dough sticking to the paddle. To date, I have made 8 pizzas, 4 italian loaves, 16 baquettes, and 2 sandwich loaves using King Arthur bread & neapolitan ‘00’ flour & semolina flour on bench/peel. One trick to avoid sticking is to work fast and not allow your dough to rest too long on the paddle. The overall length of the peel is 26 inches which translates to it not fitting in any of my kitchen cabinets (unless the pantry counts). A quick solution and way to ‘wow’ your friends as a pizzaiolo, is to drill a hole in the handle so it can be “stored” on your wall. Overall, this is a simple, efficient, well constructed (American made), middle range pizza peel with the blade rivet solid in place making it extremely durable and a lifetime investment. It’s also easy to clean by hand washing. 5 Stars! Seriously, you can’t beat the price for the size and quality! *P.S. The peel comes covered in blue film that must be peeled off prior to use.

Seems well made and works great with my pizza steel. Holds heavy pizzas with ease.

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."

I have never owned a pizza peel for all these years I’ve been making my own pizzas at home and it’s probably a shame that I didn’t. After looking on Amazon at all the ones that folded and seeing that those always broke right at the fold, I came across this one which doesn’t fold but seems sturdier and when I saw it was American made I knew it was the one for me. It’s a really good size and will handle any frozen or homemade pizza, along with breads and sandwiches and anything else you would need it for. It’s lightweight and very well made and a fantastic price. I started out simple with a frozen pizza, and it was the first time I ever baked it directly on the rack. That made all the difference with the crust and made a frozen pizza into magic. The peel slid easily under the pizza with no problem. Next I will try my own homemade crust that uses 00 pizza flour and see how that turns out. I always get a nice rustic crust when baking it on a stone, so it’ll be interesting to see how it bakes on the rack. My recipe yields a dough that isn’t a sticky dough, so I hope this won’t turn out to be a disaster. I also plan to make crusts and par-bake them for freezing, which will make it quick and convenient to whip up a homemade pizza.

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.

Excellent, works great, feels well made, not flimsy.

Dose the job decent quality why pay more

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

Good quality item, the dough drops very well.

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.

Awesome product, must buy.
