PYY Electric Pizza Oven Indoor Countertop Pizza Oven Commercial Pizza Maker Machine for Home with Timer Stainless Steel Pizza Cooker

When I got back from Italy I started making my own pizza. I use a microwave/convection oven for convenience, but it only goes up to 450. This one goes up to 572. Nice and hot and the pizza cooks in 6 minutes! My big oven is mostly for storing pots and pans, so this tabletop model is the perfect solution. Easy to move around, and the perfect size for a 10” pizza stone. The clunkiness has to do with the fact that the rack is connected to the door/handle, so you have to pull the rack out almost all the way to slide the pizza onto the stone from the side. Would be better if the door/handle flipped down and the rack stayed in the oven so you could slide the pizza in from the front. The other thing is that it indicated it could fit a 12” pizza stone, but it really can’t since the rack slide holders stick just a wee bit too far in. Finally, the temperature dial isn’t very exact, but that doesn’t seem to be a problem. This oven was affordable, so, balancing the few faults against the benefits, it works fine for me.

We love it! The pizza turns fantastic using this oven.It is easy to clean. We are anxious to try preparing other items in it.We are campers and plan to take it along in our camper to have pizza while camping!

Had it for 24 hours before I couldn't wait any longer to try it. Plusses...inexpensive, fast, light, nice rubbery cord that's long enough, all stainless interior, feet for stability, outside doesnt get crazy hot. Minuses...bulky and takes a lot of room because it bakes 12 inch pizzas, no shutoff timer...its just a rotary chime type, and the only real reason it's a 4 not 5...no indicator light for when it gets to temperature. It would cost about 10 cents to have a heating indicator added to production during manufacture. There is no simple way to tell it is at full preheat at 512F. You can turn it in and guess it's hot in 10 or 15 mins...or feel the analog temperature selector click. It SHOULD BE INCLUDED. We watched a few YouTube videos for pointers before starting. We used King Arthur Pizza flour...Amazon, chopped peppers and onions, Classico pre-made sauce , fresh mozzarella, self shredded romano, and small pieces of uncooked bacon. No spices or extra oil other than the crust edges. We were absolutely BLOWN AWAY. We are pizza snobs and this was the best pizza we ever ate. It would cost $20 to buy at a good takeout. IF you have the space it's idiot proof. I had a pizza stone and used it inside...great idea. Parchment paper when rolling out the risen dough is VERY helpful and doesn't burn on the stone. This is a BIG item and takes space. If you LOVE pizza...you will covet it. Making the dough and rolling out can be replaced by store ready to use...but we didn't. There is no end to the combinations you can make. I told my precocious 8 year old grandson Isaac that we are making pizza the next time he comes for the day. It couldn't be simpler...dont hesitate to buy this if you have the storage space. Really...

This pizza oven is awesome. We live in a very cold state and have the pizza oven in our garage so with the extreme cold it still cooks perfectly. Highly recommend

Very useful for parties, easy functions for children and easy to clean

Wouldn't spend the money again. Oven does not cook properly. Fails to heat to desired temp in a reasonable amount of time. I can preheat my gas oven and cook a pizza before this thing even gets hot. Waste of money

I don’t quite understand the temperature dial lol! But not an issue, I just did a couple of tries and it makes the crispiest crust! I use it for many other recipes other than pizza!

Addendum: Re-Review-Upon reading my original review, representatives of the company, reached out to me, to see if there was anything that they could do to compensate me for all of the challenges with this product.In the end, they refunded me the entire amount of the purchase, and promised to look into redesign to make the removal of the liner a more clear cut process, as well as making installation of parts a more streamlined process.For that reason I'm changing the review to a five-star review. I have actually used the oven, and it works quite well. The challenges at the beginning were the reason that the original review was so low.I do recommend that you develop a regular schedule of cleaning, and wiping down all of the flat surfaces within the oven.I was really excited to receive this product. The way it is packaged is phenomenal. There is little to no way it can be damaged in shipping.Unfortunately, I immediately was disappointed upon first viewing. The crumb tray has a sticker on it, which the sticker itself says to remove all and plastic liner.But, when you look at it, it looks like the crumb tray is covered in silicon. The liner itself is a pain to remove, I had to resort to using a razor blade along the thin right and left edges; just to be able to get it all out of the small channel.The handle also is an interesting proposition, in terms of its installation. You almost need two people to do it easily. I say this because you first have to remove the screw holding the face plate on, then thread it through the handle, back through the face plate, and into the horseshoe shaped structure on the back plate, install a washer, and then make sure that the screw does not move forward or pop out, while you put the thumb nut on to secure the handle and the two section of the front and rear plate together.I will update this review in terms of performance, but I am currently "pre-heating the oven on first use, at the highest temperature." I am guessing this is to burn off any chemical coating on the interior of the unit. I say that only because the manual instructs you to release any 'smoke' that might be produced by this process. Here we go into the adventures in using a pizza oven.Addendum: I am not sure which version of my review is going to make it to the Amazon page. But, I previously stated that the most interesting thing about this machine is that the temperature gauge is segmented into 18 degree intervals. So, if you want to cook a pizza at 425 degrees Fahrenheit, you go from 392 degrees ( which is designated on the dial) to 410, and then the next interval falls at 428 degrees. So, you kind of have to guess where 3 degrees less than that would be.This unit is made in China, so you kind of expect some quirkiness. But, this is a little over the top.
