America's Test Kitchen

Fitted with an innovative cloth conveyor belt, this peel excelled at unloading raw dough without misshaping it and was surprisingly effective when it came to removing the finished breads and pizzas as well. Because it’s on the thick side, though, it wasn’t great at rotating half-baked food, and it takes a little practice to set it up and to learn how to use it comfortably. While we didn’t notice a performance difference in the new wood used to make the peel, we did appreciate its new polymer coating, which guards against moisture in case you wash your peel (or get a lot of sauce on it) often.
