Works perfectly for our family pizza nights!!! We started cooking pizza on Fridays and needed the fixings and this is a great cutting board that is shaped perfectly to place our cooked pizzas for cutting. It’s thick so won’t damage, easy to use, and after we cook the pizzas I just slip the pizzas on there and we cut and serve.

So I'm trying to get into making my own pizzas at home and have found that making your own pizzas requires a little planning and some equipment. One of the must haves is a good pizza peel or, in my case, three of them! This bamboo peel was a fraction of the cost of the one from the oven manufacturer and, frankly, it looks, works, and cleans great. I don't understand why someone would pay nearly $50 when you can buy a peel like this for a way better price. In fact, you could probably buy 2 or 3 for the price. In any event, this peel is a bit thick (and I think it is supposed to be) and, because of that, really is intended for making the pizzas on it, launching them into your oven, and serving the pizzas from it ... it actually is quite nice looking. It also is helpful that there is a pointed edge along the front, which does help to launch the pizzas into the oven, but, again, the peel may be a bit thick to use for retrieving any pizza that still has a somewhat soft crust. That all said, this peel is nice looking, appears to be solid and well constructed, and it has worked exactly as intended and is a solid general peel for a very fair price. Now, go make some pizza!

Happy with my purchase. Cost was lower than alternatives and it's well made. Width is perfect for the standard Ooni.I build and launch pies with this wooden peel and rotate/ remove with a metal turning peel. Background- I'm a middle-aged IT nerd who loves pizza and worked at a pizza place in college decades ago. We have an Ooni and a metal peel. Even with my "professional" experience, I still have issues with the dough getting stuck on the peel - toppings fly off or the dough rips. It happens when letting the dough sit on the peel too long. If you build your pie with the dough on one of the metal peels with holes and are not quick, you're in for a mess.Wood helps with this, as your dough can sit longer with less flour before getting stuck, as the wood absorbs some moisture. We have pizza parties where the kids make their own pies, so they sit for a while when we stage them up for cooking. Tip, flour your peel and dough ball with 50/50 mix of your dough flour and semolina. Before you launch with this wooden peel, shake to make sure it's not sticking. Rotate/ remove with a metal turning peel because the lip on this is pretty thick and will be hard to get under a pie. Finish is nice and it's also quite heavy, so I expect to last quite a while. Looks nice enough to also use for cheese and charcuterie.

I previously ordered another 12 peel that was 12" on the width, but only 10" on the length of the paddle. So, too much of the dough would hang over at one end or the other and the peel was returned. This paddle is better as the paddle length is only an inch or so short of 12". Although I have a wider pizza peel, my current outdoor oven will accommodate only a 12" peel. I can deal with the paddle being a bit short.I prefer a wood pizza peel for delivery to the oven since the pizza dough is less likely to stick as long as you coat the peel with flour and don't leave the pizza sitting on the peel for too long. For retrieval of the pizza from the oven, I prefer a metal peel since it is much easier to get it under the pizza.Since this pizza peel is made of bamboo wood, I suggest that it is treated with a coating of either mineral oil or a wood oil to prevent drying and cracking.I hope this review was helpful for you.

I used this pizza peel today to launch my pizzas. This was my first time using a pizza peel.This peel seems to be made out of genuine bamboo, seems high quality enough as well. It’s perfect for a 12inch pizza oven and should be ok for a 16” pizza oven, or a regular oven. It may be too short if you have a much bigger pizza oven.Just some things to note. Since it’s bamboo, it will get burned if you rest it too long on your pizza stone. That’s a function of a beginner though as the longer you use it the better you will become.Bamboo peels are better for launching pizzas - I was told. But be sure to add flour such as semolina flour to help prevent sticking.

Works well! Easier to launch pizzas than my metal one. Easy to clean too.

Good quality! We've already used it twice, and it seems good, works well.
