Two main selling points for me about this item: it's dishwasher safe (yes!), and it's made in the USA. The baking stone heats everything very evenly, and gives leftover pizza that "fresh out of the pizzeria" taste. I love that you can cut food right on the baking stone, and that you don't have to use any additional tools (other plates, etc.). Once it cools, you can put it right into the dishwasher if you don't have time to wash it right away. The baking stone is also very sturdy and can be put right into a hot oven when it's cold.
If you're new to baking stones, Rada Cutlery includes a really useful brochure with food suggestions, cleaning tips, and even recipes for pizza sauce and pizza dough. This is a great everyday cooking item, and I highly recommend it for avoiding that soggy or overheated pizza taste!
