Perfect for Neapolitan pizza
As a pizza enthusiast, I was on the lookout for an electric pizza oven that could reach at least 400 degrees Celsius without costing a fortune. I must say, this Unold Luigi really impressed me. It’s a small and lightweight oven but still delivers great performance, reaching 400 degrees in about 20 minutes. It maintains its temperature well between pizzas (I’m specifically referring to Neapolitan pizza, which is the only type I’ve made so far). It’s easy to use, with preset programs available, plus a DIY option to set your preferred temperature. One feature that’s truly impressive for this price range is the ability to choose whether to use the bottom heating element, the top one, or both. To sum up, I believe the value for money is virtually unbeatable. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in making Neapolitan pizza and looking for satisfying results without spending a fortune or settling for a standard home oven (which simply won’t reach such high temperatures).

Fantastic pizza oven
The media could not be loaded. Amazing pizza oven.Worth for the money that cost. Good quality, good temperature achieved. A good oven is a game changer if you want a fantastic pizza.Just one note, the oven fan is a bit noisy, for the rest I really suggest to buy it.This pizza oven is amazing! It’s worth the money, and it delivers good quality and a good temperature (up to 400C).A great oven can make all the difference when you want to make a fantastic pizza.One thing to note is that the oven fan can be a bit noisy. But for the rest, I highly recommend buying it.

Well worth the price
Brilliant,much better than expected, in fact it rivals my ooni gas oven 90%. Easy to use, lots of settings and the manual setting is a bonus. So far I've used it to cook thin frozen pizza's and home made dough for neapoiltan pizza, I honestly cannot fault this. I'd go as far as to say this is my best purchase since my ooni oven. Excellent for indoor cooking, when I can't cook outdoors. I would recommend this highly to any pizza enthusiasts. Cannot comment on deep pan frozen pizza's, or long term reliability, as have only had this 2 weeks. The 450c setting will clean any marks on the pizza stone..

Great pizza oven for the price
For the price, I think this is the closest you're gonna get to an effeuno. It heats up pretty quickly and makes some amazing neapolitan pizza.While the bottom can reach 450+, that burns the pizza from the bottom before the top is done. I would recommend 400 bottom, 450 top. Might be different with a thick biscotto, but I don't have one yet.A small annoyance is that you can't save this as a preset, but it's easy enough to adjust when you start up the oven.Overall, it's a big recommendation for anyone passionate enough about pizza to spend a couple hundred, but not thousands of pounds.

A Pizzaiolo's Review
I bought this oven to test it. Here are my findings.In short: its quite fun, provides good enough results and is a great value for money. Don't trust the pre-made profiles.The first picture attached is using the Neapolitan setting which as you can see produced a nice leoparding on the crust but split the cheese. This was using fior di latte and a Neapolitan dough from the pizzeria that I work at. Still a good pizza but the split oily cheese is not perfect. This trend continued with the 2nd test which was a new york style. Again the cheese got split, HARD. This one was quite disappointing as the pepperoni also didn't really render leading to a greasy mess. Perhaps freeze your cheese for 45 mins prior to topping the pizza.In general I would say avoid the pre-made profiles and experiment yourself to see what top and bottom temps work best for you. For me and my purposes, to get a crispy base you have to be maxing out the bottom at 400 degrees otherwise it stays quite pale. For the third pizza, I made a sauce on top pie with slice mozz and fresh mozz. I think this one turned out the best, the base was crispy and the cheese did not split. The dollops of sauce also added a very nice contrast. At the top temp the bacon I had on this pizza also had a chance to crisp and render a little again. These I think are the best settings for cooking something between new york and Neapolitan, I'll call it a sourdough pizza style temp:TOP - 290 BOTTOM - 390. 4-6 mins.My final thoughts:This is a really fun oven to use and the experience so far has been pretty good. It is easy to work and easy to clean. For the price this is a bargain and a half that gets you pretty good quality bakes. Cooking two pizzas back to back is also not an issue for me, the stone recharged fairly quickly whilst building the second pizza. I have seen a review about problems with the fan. If I encounter this I shall update the review. If you are a pizza enthusiast and have a bit of free counter space, give this one a try. I hope the factory smell goes away soon also. In terms of pan pizza I would say don't bother, the pans that I have for both Detroit and Chicago style sit way too close to the top heating element, a domestic oven is better for pan pizza.

Excellent pizzas - but make sure you have the right cleaning equipment.
Awesome bit of kit. Used it for loads of pizza from home made to frozen. Takes a little while to get to temp but they cook really fast.Have also done other things in it like using iron skillet and doing chicken, burgers and naans.Only downside if I have one, is that it can be a bit of a pain to clean.Quickly became a favourite with the kids.

Transformed our home-made pizzas
We purchased this product over 2 months ago, but have waited posting a review until we had used it well.We looked at a number of similar products but decided on this one based on the positive reviews ... and they were not wrong! It is a fantastic product that has transformed our home-made pizzas. Produces pizzas similar to those from a restaurant with a lovely crispy crust. Found it straight forward to operate and transfer pizzas to and from the over using a peel. Easily cleaned. Wish we had bought this pizza oven before now but better late than never.
