Customer Reviews for VEVOR Gas Pizza Oven Propane Pizza Oven Stainless Steel Pizza Oven for 12" Pizza

Assembly wasn't too bad, but be careful of sharp edges. The pizza oven itself seems to be pretty well made, but the included accessories (pizza cutter and oven mitts) are very cheap although functional. Personally I'd rather they didn't even include them because the quality is so low it isn't even worth keeping them as backup items for what I already own. The stone is fine though.I have never used a pizza oven before, so it was an adventure! I used hardwood charcoal which ended up being a poor choice. I was not able to get the oven above 700 degrees, which I think was likely because the charcoal pieces were just too big so I couldn't stuff enough of them in. I went ahead and cooked a couple pizzas at 700 degrees and they did turn out yummy though. You'll need a pizza peel, which is not included. Also I was worried about putting this on a plastic table, but it actually stays surprisingly cool underneath.While the instructions say you can use wood, charcoal, or pellets, I suspect pellets will be the optimal fuel. Whichever you use, it is easy enough to load and get started. I am going to use pellets next time and I suspect that will help with my temp issues - I'm attributing those problems to user error at this point, but if I have problems even with the pellets I will come back and update. From what I've read, using a pizza oven takes some trial and error though so for a first attempt it really wasn't too bad! Looking forward to trying again.

This is a great pizza oven. It gets insanely hot. Depending on your crust recipe, some will burn faster than others. You have to turn your pizza every 10-20 seconds or it will burn. I made 4 pizzas my first time using it and managed to burn some part of all 4 of them. I had to turn the heat all the way down to low. The crusts brown fairly well. I preheated for 20 minutes on high and the first one had good crust, the rest were okay. Takes some getting used to, but very easy to use. Love the carrying case that comes with it.

great product

It worked great right out of the box. We just hooked up the propane tank, heated it for 30 minutes on a medium heat (first time use required only, probably to season the stone), then turned up the heat and started making pizzas.

Everything from the packaging to design and materials has a premium feel. It was very easy to set up and the first batch of pizzas following the included recipe card turned out great.

great pizza oven! really love all of the accessories as they really complete the oven!

I had been wanting a pizza oven for my patio for a long time, but I didn't have the time to build one, and I couldn't bring myself to pay the prices for the big brand name "out-of-the-box" solutions. At one point I got a simple wood-fired model (of a completely different design) but it didn't go well. I resolved to hold out for a propane pizza oven, and when this model became available I jumped on it.It sat in my kitchen for a few days because I wasn't looking forward to assembling it - to my surprise, it was completely assembled right out of the box, I just had to unfold the legs. I also expected it to use the little green propane tanks, but no, it has the connector for a full-sized tank, which I actually prefer. They included a cover that appears to have backpack straps on it? I assume they're joking, you'd have to be The Incredible Hulk to carry this oven + a full size propane tank for any distance longer than from your car to nearby picnic table - it's HEAVY. I gave the cover a couple heavy coats of silicone camp sealant so I could use it as an outdoor cover. I'll put the oven in the shed when I know I'm not going to use it for an extended period.I set the oven up on my grill's side table until I had an evening to try it out. A few days later, my wife sent me a message that some of her friends were coming over for game night, and they wanted me to make pizza. OK, no pressure or anything. I attached my propane tank and fired up the oven - it took me a minute to get it lit until I figured out that it's similar to a lot of propane heaters, after it catches you have to hold in the ignitor/knob for ~30 seconds or so until it gets going. I left the oven to preheat while I cleaned up the rest of the patio.I checked the temperature with my infrared thermometer after it preheated for 30 minutes, and it was 900+ degrees! I backed it off a little until it was in the 650 degree range. My wife prepped all the pizzas - since we were working on short notice, we used the premad

Easy to assemble, decent instructions. Works well, love it!

If you're like me, you might have seen a few of those $2500+ "imported" pizza ovens and thought "I could make this with $50 worth of metal". The makers of this pizza oven got the hint and got down to the brass tacks of what an outdoor pizza oven should be: a little fireproof box lets you add, ignite, and remove your wood chips, and then traps as much heat as possible.Of course this means giving up some of the nice amenities of fancier ovens... automatic wood chip feeders, sliding trays, fancy hinges... but this little beast gives you high heat and a good amount of cooking surface for your pizzas.Note that the portability of this oven (it's very easy to pick up and move around!) means smaller pies -- 12" or so -- but one of the best tips I can give to aspiring pizza chefs is *START SMALL*... it's much, much easier to work with smaller pizzas on a pizza stone, plus it's more fun to make more + smaller pizzas where you can get creative with your toppings.

Before getting to the product, just a quick note that no oven will make a great pizza for you. It can only create an environment where you can make a great pizza. This oven is a perfectly good environment. The gas version, which is what I got, is dead simple to start up, heat up and cook in. Some may like fiddling with wood and pellets, but I don’t.The oven is built very solidly and is very simple to setup. It comes with a bag and some accessories as well.I had no problems lighting it up. It would be very helpful if you had a temperature gun. It takes right around 15 - 20 minutes to get the interior to around 850 deg. Once there, you’re ready to cook. It’ll only take a few minutes to make the perfect pizza. Look for a slight bit of charring on top and some nice pebbled char on the bottom of the crust. Heaven.If you’re looking for dough recipes, just search Neapolitan pizza dough for the measurements. Just make sure you get some 00 flour for a perfectly chewy dough.Great oven and a good value to replicate Neapolitan style pizza (and calzones).
