What a fantastic item, so straight forward to use great design, cant fault it. The pizza oven paired with a thermometer gun cooks the pizzas to perfection in minutes, the pellets chute makes refilling it simple, and the ashes drop out into a grate below. Between uses i use the big horn pizza oven cover which was a bargain price btw and my pizza peel to scrape anything off the pizza stone. Really impressed with their customer service too

★★★★☆ Tasty pizza, fun oven — just takes some practice Really happy with this little wood pellet pizza oven! It heats up fast and makes delicious, crispy pizzas with that great wood-fired flavor. The size is perfect for backyard use, and it’s fairly easy to set up and move around. Pros: Heats up quickly (super hot!) Compact and portable Wood-fired taste is awesome Great price for what you get Cons: Bit of a learning curve — need to turn the pizza often Pellet feeding takes some attention Cooking area is small (12") Temp can be hard to control at first Once you get the hang of it, it's a blast to use. Great for pizza nights with friends or family. Would recommend!

This is superb value for money! Within 30 minutes of opening the box we had it built and fired up with excellent pizza coming straight out! I’d also like to mention the excellent build quality - this is not flimsy, it’s stainless steel of a good gauge, so will last a long time. I’d recommend a few things though: 1) If you don’t already have get a pizza peel, actually get two. 2) Get an infrared thermometer - our only failure was not getting the stone hot enough after relighting it. 3) You have to try cooking steak in it!!! Amazing, although the times given in the instructions are likely for quite a thin cut - you’ll need 3 mins+ per side for a 1-1/2” cut of steak. The flavour from this flame grilled cooking is incredible. Also don’t be surprised if any fat on your steak actually catches fire 🤣 4) Soft wood fuel pellets are fine but burn through quicker. We got from a local central heating supplier for £8/20kgs. 5) After 30 minutes of cooking it’ll really chew through the pellets. No issue there but keep stoking or it’ll burn out. 6) Finally - get the bag for it. 7) And while you’re at it get a cheese kit and make your own Mozzarella as well as the dough 👍👍👍

Love this little oven, easy to put together and looks really good.

Update 6 months later: Despite an encouraging start I don't think we will get much more use out of this oven I'm afraid. We've had a lot of goes now, with a lot of trial and error, but we usually end up disappointed / frustrated and wish we'd just ordered from the local pizza restaurant instead. While I'm sure these ovens "can" cook a delicious pizza under exactly the right conditions, there are just too many variables to count on reliable results. We normally make our own dough using strong flour and have tried various brands and recipes. Also tried out the frozen balls. Tried cooking in the winter (when we first got the oven) and over the Spring and into summer. And got a laser heat thermometer to make sure the stone was up to the recommended temperature (@450). Also watched loads of youtube vids on how to use it. But really, it's all still hit or miss if you get a nice or even edible dinner. And you have to constantly top up the pellets to keep it going. Maybe a gas burner would achieve better more consistent results? I don't know, but our oven is slowly making its way to to the dark corner of the garden where the rusty old bikes and broken flower pots live. A real shame because we had such high hopes for this :( We've been after a pizza oven for a couple of years, but the main brand was just too expensive to justify. So when I spotted this in a black friday deal, and going by the other rave reviews, figured it was worth a go. The quality seems much better than I expected. Stainless steel and still bright and shiny after a few winter months. We've used it @ 6 times so far and the results have been mixed. There's definitely a bit of skill / learning curve involved to get the best out of it. It gets up to temperature (hotter than the sun) in about 20 mins and really does cook your pizza in about 60 secs. Honestly, it's so quick, you do have to keep checking on it / turning your pizza to avoid it turning into a charred crisp. We had issues sliding the pizza off the peel at first, with the topping sliding onto the bottom of the oven and the base left behind on the peel! A small dusting of flour / semolia on the peel sorted that out. Looking forward to some warmer weather when we can experiment some more, but the results so far have been very encouraging :) Even stuck some chicken tikka pieces in the furnace on a tray - @ 4 mins and it was perfect tandoori style chicken.

Just used this to cook pizzas for the family (6 of us) I attempted to make my own dough and that went really well for the first time, and wow what can I say this pizza oven how have I not had this in my life before!! 10/10 pizzas and 1:30/2 minutes per pizza so super quick!! Only thing is learning and getting that act on how to get enough pellets in to not put the fire out but to keep the heat for the next pizza cause 1/2 it went under 450 degrees and I then had to get the fire going again .. If you’re thing of getting one of these it’s honestly so so good, BUT you will definitely need a infrared gun to get the perfect temp on the stone, And a hand held fan is a winner to keep the air flow at the back and then once the flame there you can stop

Works amazingly well. Surprisingly quick to heat up (they say wait for flames at the top of the chimney..which must have taken about 10 minutes). I think the key is buying quality wood chips. The first pizza got squashed up but think I get the peel technique now.. I used polenta on the base to stop it sticking and that worked well. I also used a good perforated pizza peel All in all I would very much doubt the more expensive brand is any better. It's just stainless steel and a pizza stone after all. I can see there are lots of variables to making good pizza, but the oven isn't one of them
