    A nice simple pizza oven that I paid $250 for, took it out of the box and read the Manuel for about 20 minutes. Cleaned according to instructions, got rid of that peel and used my 12 inch wooded peel. I made 2 Coscccia pizza’s on high temps in the 800’s but I did rotate the pizza to get that charred crust, took about 21/2 minutes, done. Came out great, I kept it simple but it’s worth the money

    Bought this a couple weeks ago. Thanks for the follow up. I’ve been following all your temp recommendations for neopolitan. Has been doing just fine. I took your advice and while the oven says you don’t have to take it out and rotate - I do a quarter turn every so often in the 3-330 minutes I’m cooking the pizza. Definitely helps to get that nice even browned look.

    Without people like you most of us would "throw in the towel" after half a dozen pizzas, then write a crappy review on the product. Just tried it for the second time and the pizzas are great (for a consumer/homemade pizza). Thank you again.@@somedadscook

    great video - have this oven partly from your initial review and I love it! I really like the temps research - definitely gonna wait about 5 minutes before putting my next pizza on the high heat fun to let it level off. Great tip about shutting it off - think I saw that on another video as well. I love this little oven - the other night I had pizza dough pulled from the fridge - still a bit cool when I wanted to make the pizza, but by the time the oven had heated up (ny style), I had managed to roll it out and could stretch it a bit and got some basic toppings ready. 5-6 mins later after pre-heat, gorgeous pizza out of the oven :-)

    Ordered mine and should be arriving tomorrow. Thanks for this follow up video! New question…is it possible to cook other foods in it? I;ve seen other brands showing roasting vegetables in it. I’d be afraid to cook anything that would splatter grease around. I’ll probably experiment, just thought I’d ask…give you something else to make a video about😃

    Epic fail with my first try. I followed your suggestion here for Neapolitan, but I should have checked stone temp before launching, and my dough might have been a little too hydrated. As soon as it touched the stone, eeeeeeeeek. Started burning. I tried to use peel to get it out, eeeeeek, what a mess. Now I got a black stone and pizza in the trash. Gotta figure out how to clean the stone and will try again tmrw, whaaaaaaaa😢😢😢😢

    Me again…I tried again tonight following your first video (lower bottom temp than top). It cooked great, but user error again…I used store-bought packaged-daily dough and thought it was Neapolitan. Nope, I should have realized by the lack of fermentation bubbles. It tasted ok, but next time I’d follow NY style temps & times with that specific dough. Your videos have been very helpful! I greatly appreciate the work you guys put into making these videos!! It’s just a learning curve for me. Best wishes!

    Hi, just to clarify. In your first video it seems clear that rotating the pizza every minute seemed to completely change the results positively. In this video, I seem to understand that you give it 5 more minutes at max temperature and leave the pizza in the oven for 3.5 minutes that’s it. What happened to rotating it? Not necessary this way or I misunderstood. Thanks.

    If you are doing anything other than a Neapolitan style, you do not need this oven. You can accomplish all styles except Neapolitan in your home oven. 3.5 minutes for a Neapolitan is a fail. Hard pass on this oven.
