Hmm. I thought this stone was great, for the 3 months I used it before
it cracked. I was using it to bake bread and pizzas. Used it maybe 2
dozen times, with great success. And yes, was aware of the 'cracking'
issue thanks to other reviews on Amazon. So I took extra care with this

I could keep using it and just clean each half,

could just keep buying $15 baking stones every 3 months, or just pay $35
for one that supposedly won't break. I think the real bargain would be
to pay the $35 for something that will last. If you're planning on
using this baking stone only for the occasional 2x/yr pizza, then by all
means. But if you're planning on baking something once a week, the
bargain on this one probably won't last.
