I love it. However, my husband is using pizza cutter on it. What reasons can I give him to stop?

Can't imagine doing that to my favorite cookie sheet, altho I wouldn't know if it harms it too much. Get your husband a pizza stone. It does a better job of cooking the pizza anyway.

Buy yourself a pizza stone and a pizza peel and use those things instead of this wonderful cookie sheet. As Grape answered, the stone will make a better pizza than a cookie sheet does. Even if you are just cooking frozen pizzas or take and bake ones, the stone is perfect. I can just imagine those awful cuts on your cookie sheet!

It's possible that your dough is too wet. It should be well floured before putting it on the hot stone. You can also sprinkle some flour on the stone as well. The flour will burn but it might help with easy removal. I had this problem the first time I used the pizza maker but after adjusting my dough, I have not had any difficulty removing the pizza. Good luck!

I use either a wood or bamboo cutting board. You can cut on a pizza stone, but it only dulls the blade quicker

I had the same problem. It won't hurt anything and will gradually go away. Its a great bread box.

dont try cooking pizza...too much direct heat from the top and not enough to do the crust properly...

I just started making Pizza's in the oven. I have made 12''. It looks like you can make 2 at the same time.I really like the oven.

I would not advise it. It's best to use a pizza peal to remove the pizza from the hot stone. The stone would probably dull your cutter and leave a mess on the stone. If you buy an uncooked pizza with a cardboard insert underneath then use that to cut the pizza on after removing it from the stone. The cardboard will protect your cutter and it can be easily thrown into the garbage.

I use it all the time to make dough for one pizza (following the Cooks Illustrated recipe). It is small, but enough for me. I find that not having a dough blade doesn't matter that much in this case.

Sorry, I have the same problem. My friend says the only fix is to get a slicer that is serrated.

I have this problem but I'm afraid I haven't used the grater as of yet. As far as the other pieces go I have had no issues with it moving while in use.

That is true! The same happened to me twice so I stopped using it as a slicer. Such a shame cause it was great. Cusinart replaced it both times but I stopped slicingever since :( happy to know it's not just me :)

Sorry to hear of your loss. I would first arrange to stop your husband from opening your dishwasher by putting on a Child Proof Locking Device. Or Get a Whole Sheet pan that won't fit in the washer. The other suggestion is to take your pans when you have completed the task of baking and wipe them clean and put them away yourself...stop Mr. Right from doing his Helpful task! All Metal cookware is capable of damage in a dishwasher, thus; I wash my pans when I complete the task and put them away. Other than that I would suggest you get Stock In Chicago Metallic as your going to be their best customer. The Hemedingers of Tennessee Sorry to hear of your loss.

I don't have that problem at all. I would say you have a faulty product and should return it for replacement. I've had no problems with the cutter at all.

Have used mine for years with no problem. It takes up to 1 minute per slice. Did you set it for too much time? I like it so much that I am on my second one after chipping the side of my first. Full control of crispness is possible by checking as it nears the end of cooking.

My husband, who is the pizza maker, says that he NEVER puts it into a hot oven. I would go along with what you've been told.

I had that trouble too so I rolled out the pizza then put the pie on top of some corn meal right on the counter top. No trouble. Dough slid right off the metal pizza handle thing onto the stone.

Yea, it works so well that mine got stolen...Just don't swipe it on the course side too much. With approximately 5lbs of pressure on your knife swipe it 3 times on the course and 6 times on the ceramic and you're good. Now, to keep it scary sharp use a honing steal on your knife before each use and your set. I cook for a living so sorry if I elaborated too much.
