CuisinartIndoor Pizza Oven – Versatile Temp range reaches 700°F – Bake 12” Pizzas in Minutes – Portable Countertop Pizza Oven – Stainless Steel – CPZ-120

I got this pizza maker on a black Friday deal, and couldn’t be happier. After a little bit of practice, you’ll be able to make pizzas that are better than anything you can buy. The unit gets very hot, but it does take about 20 to 25 minutes to reach cooking temperature. I just turn it on to preheat and then start making my pizza and it seems to time out perfectly. There’s a wonderful dough recipe online called “Roberta’s Pizza Dough” I use with a marinara sauce, but any sauce works great. The timer is a bit wonky but workable. Be careful or you can get fat quick with this pizza maker.

I absolutely LOVE Cuisinart products! You can always depend on the quality of your item purchased… doesn’t matter what it may be. Love you Cuisinart, thank you for your quality and support. Best company Ever!

I have friends with ovens from the two more famous brands of pizza ovens. Either of those other brand ovens is about $1000. Are they better than this one? I don't know; maybe, but I have zero complaints about this one. Are the others 500% better? Absolutely not. Will those ovens last longer than this one? Based on what I've heard from my friends, I doubt it. It seems like they replace their very expensive ovens every year. I don't know how long my Cuisinart will last, but so far it is holding up great. I mostly make New York style pizza using King Arthur Flour's "The Easiest Pizza You'll Ever Make" dough recipe and it comes out fabulous every time. The supplied folding pizza peel works well, but based on some videos I've watched, I think I'll be purchasing a wooden peel, since experts say the unbaked pizza comes off a wooden peel more easily. And here's a trick for scraping baked-on sauce and cheese from your pizza stone: Use a metal paint scraper. I keep one in the kitchen just for that purpose. The inevitable spills will stain the stone (have you ever looked inside a Pizzerias oven?), but the scraper will keep them smooth.

Here is my take after making 3 Pizzas and two days with this machine:1- Oven hits it’s highest temperature ’ in less than 22 minutes (others has stated 30, for me it’s about 18 minutes)2- Oven heats almost even, with area next to the window being slightly cooler.3- It bakes a Neapolitan Pizza under 4 minutes.4- The fan is noisy but not too noisy.5- The top gets hot, but not too hot to cause any danger.6- The lamp inside works well, you can see the pie easily.7- It is not too heavy or bulky.8-The stone and crumb tray are easy to remove and clean. Anything splattered inside, you are SOL.My only negative is questionable temperature. It is high enough for almost any kind of Pizza (just little longer time) But if you are looking for something identical to a wood burner, this is not it.The indoor competition is Oooni 12v and the Breville.Both are hands down better than this at over $1,000 each (after tax).They reach higher temperature 850 & 750. And have more bells and whistles.If you are planning to make Neapolitan Pizza more than once a week consistently and are well versed in the art of Neapolitan Pizza making and for some strange reason you want to have an electric indoor pizza oven (instead of an outdoor wood burner), then you should buy one of those.If you are like me, and you just want to experiment, learn and have fun at a very reasonable price, this is for you.Don’t waste your money on something that may end up in your pantry 6 months from now.

We just bought this oven and have been testing it out. There is a slight learning curve as with everything.The oven gets hot and cooks pizza awesome. We have not yet tried anything but pizza yet.Honestly the neapolitan rocks.Pros- gets nice and hot, cooking time short, thought it cooks fairly even without spinning pizza. All controls worked fine. Nice bright light inside.Cons- the pizza peel is terrible and takes a decent amount of flour to get it to a point it will slide off, which is a must. Tried corneal and that's a little more messy. Cleaning out kind of a pain, should come with a brush and scraper. Takes awhile to heat up and can be loud but not terrible and that honestly didn't really bother meTips- we have not mastered thin crust. But neapolitan we are close. I discovered that i don't love crust made with any oil, it's better with just flour,salt, water and yeast. Our crust was good but we are perfecting and will get even better, just need a few more test runs. We like putting fresh mozzarella on after it bakes to avoid water. Some toppings should be somewhat pre cooked due to short cook time and water content reduction.All and all, we would recommend it even though a little more expensive. You get what you pay for and this oven did not disappoint over all. Gave only 4 rating for pizza peel and cleaning with no cleaning tips or brushes provided.

Took some getting used to but love how great the pizzas come out. Fun with the family and great alternative to getting expensive pizza delivered

Not real impressed. Works a lot better if you dont use the stone. Or just use frozen pizzas and HOPE they dont stick to the stone like glue. This stone is weird. You can flour it, Corn starch it, spray it... You CANT get the crust loose from the stone. I sold mine after 8 tries of homemade pizza. 20 bucks is 20 bucks..
