# Bakers Pride Y-600: Used-Buy Risk, Price & What to Check | KitchenRisk

> Used Bakers Pride Y-600 deck oven ~$12,900 vs $14,414 new, the $400+ gas thermostat risk, the pilot/thermopile gas train, and a pre-purchase checklist.

**Verdict:** inspect

A used double-deck Y-600 was listed at $12,900 against $14,414 new (natural gas) / $24,040 new (brick-lined LP) — so a used single deck should sit below that. The pricey wear item is the gas thermostat; also inspect the pilot/thermopile gas train and the deck stones. Buy after a full heat-up and thermostat test.

**Observed used price:** $12,900–$12,900

**Documented failure risks:**
- Gas thermostat / temperature control: The Y-600 gas thermostat (OEM AS-M1005X, 650°F) is a $400-plus part and drift/failure is a common, pricey fault on used gas decks. Test that the deck holds set temperature across a full heat-up before buying.
- Thermopile / pilot / gas valve: Pilot burner (2J-M1220A), thermopile (2J-M1265A) and gas valve (2V-R3104A) are the flame-sensing gas train; pilot/flame-sensing faults are typical on used gas decks. Verify the pilot lights and holds and the burner cycles correctly.
- Deck stones: Class-level for stone-deck ovens (not a Y-600-specific sourced claim): thermal-cycled deck stones can crack, and replacement plus labor adds up. Inspect the deck for cracks and heavy wear.
- Door hardware: Heat-cycled door springs and handle wear; a Y-600 door handle is a stocked ~$160 part. Check the door closes and seals.
