My fiance got this pizza oven for Christmas last year and we’ve gotten a lot of good use out of it. It is supposed to be for frozen pizzas, but we’ve often made our own fresh pizza with this as well. However, if you do so, remember that this oven only works for pre-baked pizza dough and not the raw refrigerated dough. It will not hold its shape on the wire rack and will run through the cracks, nor will it properly bake.
I really enjoy this oven mostly because we do not have to wait for it to preheat. The oven takes a fraction of the time to heat the pizza. You simply plug it in, throw in the pizza and set the timer. Even with a frozen pizza it only takes about 12 minutes to cook. With a fresh, homemade pizza it takes less than 8 minutes depending on how crispy you want the crust.

We were able to set up a makeshift kitchen in the basement brought the oven down there when we were without appliances. Even after the kitchen was functional, I noticed my fiance had not brought the oven back upstairs. It was actually because he didn’t know where we could put it where it would not heat up the surrounding cabinets or be hidden. We may be able to put it inside a panty but he will have to drill a hole in the cabinets to allow for it to be plugged in. The oven gets very hot on the exterior and so it would be important to have enough room to store it so that the cord would not touch the oven and get damaged. However, the oven does have rubber knobs on the bottom and the sides so it ...
