Wood-Burning Outdoor Pizza Oven, CBO-500 Countertop Oven with Silver Vein Hood

Well packed and mounted on heavy duty plywood covered pallet. There is a ramp included inside the box.

Love my oven. Was shipped the same day. arrived 4 days later fully assembled . I will have to learn how to use it as making pizza is not as easy as its been shown on U tube.

The refractory cement construction & igloo shape are incredible innovations! Creates very high heat thru a vacuum 'heat roll' yet safe - pretty neat! Cooks beautiful pizzas very quickly. Haven't tried yet but I understand you can do other stuff (steaks, kabobs, breads, appies). Preheating is a bit of a killjoy though. And temp control can be frustrating. But we love the infrared thermometer gun! Shipping was dicey because it isn't protected enough for all the different warehouse transfers enroute. Bit pricey for us Canucks but you get a quality product for yur Loonie!

If I had rated this about a year ago I may have given this a 2 star rating. I was always only having Ok succes with it.I would start my fire like normal. Once the coals became enmbers. I brush them to the back and would end up making one good pizza. Then the rest would just not cook right. Plus I would not be able to scrape under them to move them around because my peel would get caught on the lip of the base. I would just really get on my nerves and caught myself cursing the designers of this oven on many occasions.Until I switch my method of operation. Instead of brushing the fire to the back of the oven I decided to brush the embers to the side instead. Once it came time to slide the pizza in the oven I was able to slide it past the lip and avoid it completely. The "fire roll" (as decribed on the manufacturer website) worked like a charm. I was able to make 4 pizzas without issues of hitting the lip, not enough heat or the pizza being too close to the outside.I do know that things can be better if I had more space but the certainly do deserve 4 stars at the least. I have since may a great number of pizzas in it. You can see a picture of me next to it here. [...]
