This was a replacement for the one I bought in Jan 2020 and have loved. It was out of warranty when it failed. I doesn’t it in for repairs and you have me a new one. I’m delighted. I’m spoiled being able to make great pizza no matter what the weather.
Purchased a month ago for my NYC apartment and couldnt bd happier. I have a log cabin in NJ where I installed a beautiful wood burning outdoor oven imported from Italy. Have been using for 20 years but am selling my home and needed an appliance that could match mg outdoor oven and meet NYC code, i.e.-cant use propane gas. The Breville pizza oven was the perfect solution. Turns out pizzas as good as my wood burning oven and i can fire it up in 20 minutes vs 2 hours. Its a good size appliance but compact enough to store in my apartment.
Easy to use. I made five pizzas to get the hang of settings and pizza type. I am happy with the purchase. It will pay for itself over a short period of time.
Pros: The build quality is exceptional. External surfaces stay cool/warm even when oven is set to very high temperature. Cons: The maximum size of 11" is unfortunate since many refrigerated and frozen pizzas are 12-14". No instructions for grocer-made fresh refrigerated pizzas--only a setting for frozen pizzas. No instructions for homemade pizzas using Boboli or other pre-cooked dough as a base.
I am using this almost nightly. I sold my Wood-Fired oven, as part of scaling down in anticipation of move East. My replacement was a Roccbox. It sits idle now because the Pizzaiola Oven is so very convenient to use.
This pizza oven is tops. It cooks in 2min with perfect spotted crust. We wanted an oven we could use indoors for the winter. Every pizza we have made has been better than restaurant or take out.
