Great pizza oven. We usually do thin crust pizzas and they come out perfect using the thin crust setting. We have not experimented with pan pizzas or any of the such but can safely assume that the products would turn out second to none.
I had it in 750 and it smoked my whole kitchen and when I removed my pizza the oven caught on fire. I googled and I didn’t read this happening to other owners. Maybe it was defective one but I would not recommend it.
Could not be happier. We had been doing Friday night sour dough pizza for months when I came across this oven. Yes, it’s super pricey! But! Holy cow is it worth it! Cooks in 3 minutes. Crisps the bottom and the top. Get great oven spring. Easy to clean because we burn it off t 750 for 15 minutes or so. The next morning we spend 69 seconds cleaning the stone. You do need to spritz and scrub the inside glass and edges, buts surprisingly easy. .it’s light enough and small enough that we can store it in the pantry closet during the week. Takes about 20 minutes or so to come up to temp. I love it so much I bought one for my Mom. Just buy it!
This pizza oven is fantastic! I never would have imagined that this oven would perform so beautifully with every pizza task I used it on. Even the frozen pizzas taste great! I did have my first pizza stone break but I now know why. The pizza stones break when the have too much moisture in them(typically after being cleaned) and are used at the higher range of cooking temperatures before it was completely dry. Breville was nice enough to replace my broken stone!
Have had the pizzaiolo for 6 months now, absolutely love it. Only complaint I have is the completely cooled stone broke in half as I was removing it to clean underneath it. I have discovered a creamy liquid multi purpose cook top cleaner (from specialty cookware shop) that makes cleaning the inside very quick and easy. The stainless and glass looks like new again. (Don't use it on the stone).
Oven great. Stone cracked and deep dish pan rusts at seams

Was fabulous but stone cracked after just a few months use and you can't get through to customer service. .Deep dish pan also rusts at seams. I bought a replacement deep dish pan but it also rusted at seams the same way original one did - even with light hand washing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
