Why the Highest Rating Goes to the ThermiChef

The ThermiChef carries the strongest buyer feedback of any pizza steel in this review. Its full 16x16-inch square surface is larger than the 14x16-inch Original Baking Steel and suits both pizza and bread baking, which matters for bakers who use their steel for more than just pizza.

At 17.6 lbs, it is a heavy plate to handle, as any full-size steel is. As with any full-size steel plate, confirming your oven has true 16x16-inch clearance before buying is the main practical consideration.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • The strongest buyer feedback of any pizza steel in this review

Cons

  • At 17.6 lbs, it is heavy to maneuver in and out of a hot oven
  • Full 16x16-inch size requires adequate oven clearance

Bottom Line

The ThermiChef has the strongest buyer feedback in this review, and its full 16x16-inch surface suits both pizza and bread baking. Confirm your oven has a full 16x16-inch clearance before ordering.
