It made super flat bread. You can’t dry heat it before putting in your sourdough so the bread turns out flat

Makes some crusty bread

Yummy bread

I bought this bread oven a few months ago. I've baked about 16 loaves of bread in it since then. I always bake at 475f convection oven. Not one chip or stain. No hot spots. I never have to rotate the pan. Every time I take the lid off to brown the the crust, I smile with amazement at how beautiful every loaf is. Its a 10 out of 10 for me. I want to buy more as gifts for my sourdough baking friends.

I received this bread oven in the color pink. The color is beautiful and the product is of substantial weight and feels very sturdy! I've never used a cast iron bread oven before so don't have anything to compare it to, but bread certainly comes out better using this than a regular bread pan. Very excited to try more baking experiments with this.

I have baked dozens of loaves of sourdough bread since purchasing this oven. Temperatures as high as 500 degrees don't seem to be a problem and I normally bake at 475 without trouble. The interior does stain after use; if that bothers you, I'm sure Barkeeper's Friend would clean it up. This is a much better deal than the Le Creuset version that costs $300.

My wife says it's the best bread I've ever made, and I've made plenty. Upside down Dutch Ovens, boiling water in a pan underneath, pizza stones above and below, spritzed water, all the tricks, but with just this device, a perfect loaf on the first try. I used the recipe that the other bread oven maker has on their website.

Nice looking. Convenient handle. However, description says temps to 450. Not great for sourdough as most recipes require an hour preheat at 500 degrees F. The white will darken and time will tell if the enamel actually holds up. Also, oddly, the distribution of heat after initial covered bake shows uneven browning forcing me to rotate the pan and losing heat even after trying convection to resolve this issue. Going back to my trusted Lodge cast iron as it tolerates higher heat and browning is consistent without having to rotate. Just doesn't have a nice handle on the top.

I was surprised at how heavy duty this was. We bought a bread making for beginners book and then got this. First loaf came out perfect! Crisp on the outside and soft inside. I’ll be happy to start having bread that isn’t full of preservatives. It came very well packaged. But surprised that there were no instructions inside - had to find info online .

I paid 47.00 dollars. Next month it was 22.00.
