Embrace the simplicity, experiment with toppings, and enjoy the delight of homemade pizza any time, anywhere. Buon appetito!

What a fantastic item, so straight forward to use great design, cant fault it. The pizza oven paired with a thermometer gun cooks the pizzas to perfection in minutes, the pellets chute makes refilling it simple, and the ashes drop out into a grate below. Between uses i use the big horn pizza oven cover which was a bargain price btw and my pizza peel to scrape anything off the pizza stone. Really impressed with their customer service too

I started using this pizza oven and found it difficult to keep it consistently lit and burning long enough to cook, but this was definitely down to low quality pellets. Changed to better ones and this is now a fantastic product and excellent value for money

★★★★☆ Tasty pizza, fun oven — just takes some practice Really happy with this little wood pellet pizza oven! It heats up fast and makes delicious, crispy pizzas with that great wood-fired flavor. The size is perfect for backyard use, and it’s fairly easy to set up and move around. Pros: Heats up quickly (super hot!) Compact and portable Wood-fired taste is awesome Great price for what you get Cons: Bit of a learning curve — need to turn the pizza often Pellet feeding takes some attention Cooking area is small (12") Temp can be hard to control at first Once you get the hang of it, it's a blast to use. Great for pizza nights with friends or family. Would recommend!

This is a fantastic oven. I just couldn't justify the cost of an Oonie but this fitted my budget and it works great. I wont purchase a shop bought pizza again nor will I have one when I go out to an Italian restaurant when I can make such good pizzas at home. A top tip is to use frozen pizza dough from Tesco along with Heinz tomato and basil pasta sauce. Do heat the oven up for a good 20mins before you use it for best results.

This is superb value for money! Within 30 minutes of opening the box we had it built and fired up with excellent pizza coming straight out! I’d also like to mention the excellent build quality - this is not flimsy, it’s stainless steel of a good gauge, so will last a long time. I’d recommend a few things though: 1) If you don’t already have get a pizza peel, actually get two. 2) Get an infrared thermometer - our only failure was not getting the stone hot enough after relighting it. 3) You have to try cooking steak in it!!! Amazing, although the times given in the instructions are likely for quite a thin cut - you’ll need 3 mins+ per side for a 1-1/2” cut of steak. The flavour from this flame grilled cooking is incredible. Also don’t be surprised if any fat on your steak actually catches fire 🤣 4) Soft wood fuel pellets are fine but burn through quicker. We got from a local central heating supplier for £8/20kgs. 5) After 30 minutes of cooking it’ll really chew through the pellets. No issue there but keep stoking or it’ll burn out. 6) Finally - get the bag for it. 7) And while you’re at it get a cheese kit and make your own Mozzarella as well as the dough 👍👍👍

A brilliant pizza oven! Hard to clean but it arrived quickly and was easy to set up! Should last a little while as it's cheaper version!

Update 6 months later: Despite an encouraging start I don't think we will get much more use out of this oven I'm afraid. We've had a lot of goes now, with a lot of trial and error, but we usually end up disappointed / frustrated and wish we'd just ordered from the local pizza restaurant instead. While I'm sure these ovens "can" cook a delicious pizza under exactly the right conditions, there are just too many variables to count on reliable results. We normally make our own dough using strong flour and have tried various brands and recipes. Also tried out the frozen balls. Tried cooking in the winter (when we first got the oven) and over the Spring and into summer. And got a laser heat thermometer to make sure the stone was up to the recommended temperature (@450). Also watched loads of youtube vids on how to use it. But really, it's all still hit or miss if you get a nice or even edible dinner. And you have to constantly top up the pellets to keep it going. Maybe a gas burner would achieve better more consistent results? I don't know, but our oven is slowly making its way to to the dark corner of the garden where the rusty old bikes and broken flower pots live. A real shame because we had such high hopes for this :( We've been after a pizza oven for a couple of years, but the main brand was just too expensive to justify. So when I spotted this in a black friday deal, and going by the other rave reviews, figured it was worth a go. The quality seems much better than I expected. Stainless steel and still bright and shiny after a few winter months. We've used it @ 6 times so far and the results have been mixed. There's definitely a bit of skill / learning curve involved to get the best out of it. It gets up to temperature (hotter than the sun) in about 20 mins and really does cook your pizza in about 60 secs. Honestly, it's so quick, you do have to keep checking on it / turning your pizza to avoid it turning into a charred crisp. We had issues sliding the pizza off the peel at first, with the topping sliding onto the bottom of the oven and the base left behind on the peel! A small dusting of flour / semolia on the peel sorted that out. Looking forward to some warmer weather when we can experiment some more, but the results so far have been very encouraging :) Even stuck some chicken tikka pieces in the furnace on a tray - @ 4 mins and it was perfect tandoori style chicken.

After having friends with an Ooni oven, I took a chance with the Bighorn to save a few dollars. To keep this short, lets just say that this thing has outperformed my friends' ovens and become one of my favourite things to use outdoors. Simple to use, makes amazing pizza fast, the wood fired taste and smell is astounding, and an amazingly SOLID Stainless steel build makes this a must have. I have taken this thing all over in travels and it folds up perfectly and never fails. As well ... the company has the most amazing customer service! I was stupid enough to be using this outside in a -30 Canadian winter, and left the unit outside overnight after I was done using it. Sadly, due to my own error of letting this go from several hundred degrees Fahrenheit to minus 30 degrees Celsius, the pizza stone cracked. I contacted the company and within two days they shipped me a new stone free of charge! I would highly recommend this unit to anyone who asks, and the company has gained my full support in all respects. Grad yourself this oven, along with a pizza peel, and a Digital thermometer and get started making the best pizzas you'll ever make. Just writing this review is making me hungry for another pizza out of this beauty! I'd pay money just to smell the pizzas coming out of the oven! There are people who convert to propane with this, but I'd stick with the pellets to get the full experience and flavour. A few trial runs or questions asked to someone who owns one (heck ... feel free to message me if you need to) and you'll be knocking pizzas right out of the park. DON'T HESITATE! GET THIS NOW! ... and no I havent been paid to say this... it is really that good. Cheers everyone and happy pizza making !

Works great!

Easy to assemble, easy to light, easy to use.

Petit four à pizza bien conçu et efficace. Mes premières pizza ont cuits correctement. Il faut veiller à charger le pellet pour obtenir une belle flamme. Pas mécontent de mon premier essai. Il me reste a trouver le bon dosage de sel pour ma pâte et arriver a ce que la pizza ne colle pas à la pelle pour que ce soit parfait. Mais rien a voir avec le four. Un petit régal ce four.

Mega toller Pizzaofen! Nach dem kompletten Aufheizen waren die Pizzen innerhalb 2-3 (!) Minuten fertig! Unglaublich! Und unglaublich knusprig! Gekaufte Tiefkühlware haben wir vorher etwas angetaut. Die Pizzen haben wir nach kurzer Zeit ein mal gedreht. Selbstgemachter Pizzahefeteig wird oben unglaublich fluffig und unten mega knusprig. Man sollte bei selbstgemachtem Teig diesen nicht zu groß machen und nicht zu dick belegen da sonst das Drehen und hinein- & herausnehmen etwas schwierig ist. Wo der Ofen auf dem Tisch o.ä. steht wird kaum Hitze abgegeben/übertragen. An allen anderen Stellen wird er natürlich sehr heiß. Dass die Ofentür komplett abzunehmen ist finde ich persönlich wirklich besser, als wenn sie fest verbaut wäre. Wir haben hochwertige Pellets gekauft und die haben super gebrannt, kaum Asche verursacht und enorme Hitze produziert. Reinigung und Handhabung des Ofens ist wirklich top und intuitiv. Wir würden ihn auf jeden Fall empfehlen und sind total begeistert!
