What to do if it breaks when pulling out of oven? Purchased on Amazon?

I'm assuming you pulled it out of the oven while it was still hot? I learned this lesson the hard way also. My first pizza stone was not an Old Stone product. Needs to cool down with the oven before removal. If it breaks, about the only thing to do is throw it away and buy a new one. Heat the stone up with the oven and let it cool down to ambient temp as the oven cools.

Just pull it with a small pliers. It should come out. It is just clipped not soldered

take the pizza stone and the shaft out of the oven. You need to adjust the collar using a metric allen wrench to make the platform sit a little higher. You really need to tighten it pretty good so it won't slide back down.

So did mine. Throw away and buy a new one. That's what I did. Shame this was a great oven size wise and with double rack and could fit pizzas.

Skip it for sure. Had I been bending over to take my chicken out of the dish when mine exploded, I would have ended up with glass in my face or eyes. It exploded after taking it out of the oven, not in the oven. Just use a regular baking pan. I didn't replace my set and won't. It's not worth risking your safety.

I've had mine for several years now, and I'll cry if it ever breaks. This is the best oven ever. Bought a second one for the basement.

The handle broke on my pan also. I notified amazon and they sent a replacement right away. The thing is when you do put the new handle back on do not tighten the screw too tight. I've not had any more trouble with the handle since. Hope this helps.

Have used one in the oven a couple of days ago, for only a very few minutes, modest temperature. It's shot. Dead & buried. Looking to replace it, they only seem to come in pairs, but certainly accessibly priced.

I did, and it shattered. So, no. From what I've read, this is the way to go: http://www.amazon.com/Old-Stone-Oven-4467-14-Inch/dp/B0000E1FDA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1401731928&sr=8-1&keywords=pizza+stone

You don't return it to Amazon. Contact Calphalon and they should be more than happy to ship you replacement parts. : )

Unless you're using unusually high heat, completely safe. If you do pull the silicone handle off, be careful handling it right out of the oven, it's riveted to the pan so it will become one with your hand otherwise. Nobody wants to be known as "Pan Hand."

The handle will not be oven safe, so removing the handle would be sufficient.

I bought one of these from Amazon (used), it didn't work. Luckily I was able to return it and get my money back. I also bought a cookbook from Amazon that never arrived (they said it was undeliverable - what a joke!). I then bought an oven from Morningware and it blew out the 1st time I tried to use it. Well, they sent me a new power head and all seems to be well now, so..... I just completely disassembled the old one and there is no filter inside. Good Luck!

Same here: both two years old and both curling up at the edges and seems to be coming apart at the edge- tripping is now a constant issue. Not near the oven.

That's just the way it is with a pizza stone. Let it go. Scrubbing it with water can harm it. If you put it in the oven while it still has moisture in it it could crack. Just wipe it off with a damp sponge and let it air dry.
