I got this as birthday gift for family member. And, thus, I could also enjoy the output, food! And, Here are pros and cons if you are considering to buyPros1) for beginner, not easy to fire inside of such small metal box2) you should buy special wood or, it would not work. Need to spend more money3) sadly, the special/small wood does not get fire easily and we ended up using charcoal (double work)4) disaster if your pizza dough stuck on the stone plate. whole thing will get burnt5) someone who cooks CANNOT do anything else once you put the rough inside the metal container. Must keep eye on.. it burn quickly and cook unevenly otherwisecons1) with such higher temperature than other oven, taste is very fresh and crispy crust2) family fun and you can use your kids' little hand. they loves to make dough and watch how to cook3) handy and locate in anywhereoverall, I would buy and gift to someone else if there is a chance. Good price and huge fun

The BIG HORN OUTDOORS Pizza Oven has been a noteworthy addition to my outdoor cooking arsenal, deserving a solid four-star rating. This wood pellet pizza oven is a great value for its price, offering the delightful experience of wood-fired pizza made right in my backyard.The oven itself is well-constructed and has an aesthetic appeal that enhances the outdoor cooking experience. The use of wood pellets for fuel is a smart choice, as it imparts a genuine smoky flavor to the pizzas, akin to what you would expect from a high-end pizzeria. The heat distribution is generally even, and once you get the hang of it, the oven is capable of cooking pizzas to perfection with that desirable crispy crust and well-cooked toppings.However, there is a noticeable learning curve to this pizza oven. Mastering the temperature control and understanding the best ways to cook with it takes time and patience. Initially, I found it challenging to maintain a consistent temperature, which is crucial for cooking pizzas evenly. It's definitely not a "set it and forget it" type of appliance – it requires constant attention and adjustment, especially during the first few uses.Despite this, the value of the price is undeniable. Once you overcome the initial learning phase, the results are incredibly rewarding. The joy of serving up authentic wood-fired pizzas to family and friends is worth the effort put into mastering this oven.TL;DR: the BIG HORN OUTDOORS Pizza Oven is a great investment for those who are passionate about pizza and enjoy the process of outdoor cooking. While it might not be the easiest to use right out of the box, the quality of the pizzas it produces once you get the hang of it is impressive. I recommend it to anyone looking for a cost-effective way to enjoy wood-fired pizzas at home, with the caveat that there's a bit of a learning curve involved.

Purchased as a gift for Dad, and 6 months later, he is still raving about it! Easy setup, and easy to use. Cooks pizza super quick!

Wonderful unit cooks everything well

This is the best pizza oven in its price range. Sure, for double the price, you could get a more upscale model from another company that still only uses one heat source. Using pellets I already have for a smoker is a plus. The only negative is that you need to let it reheat between pizzas.

Edit: 4/2/24This actually does not fit a standard size pizza very well at all as its a little too big and it will get stuck to the sides or rear. I recommend opening the hopper lid when you stick the pizza in as well otherwise the top burns and the bottom doesn't fully cook. I found that opening the hopper and forcing the flames out of it will help evenly cook the pizza and then you can close it the last little bit if you want the top cooked a bit more. If you do not do this then you will have a doughy bottom and burnt toppings. I used the in-laws pizza oven to discover that this sized oven is not for me and I do not have the patience to deal with it and will be opting for a larger oven personally.I purchased this as a gift for my in-laws for their new lanai they had put in right before the Christmas. They had talked about wanting a pizza oven along with some other stuff for their new lanai. We all love pizza and I thought this would be a perfect gift for them. It is an awesome pizza oven, but it is smaller than I thought. This will work for a typical large pizza, but do not expect anything larger than that with this oven. I am not sure if this is just a standard size of pizza ovens like this or if this is just a smaller unit. I would personally want one that is a little larger so you could make a standard size large pizza and maybe some cheesy bread at the same time.

Love this thing but definitely some trial and error on how to keep the flame going. By our 5th pizza we had the hang of it. It’s a small oven and can’t do pizzas over 12in but this wasn’t an issue for us. Such a fun and compact tool, 100% worth the price.
