Piezano Pizza Oven Review: Is It Worth It?

Here is why folks love it. You plug it in, flip it on, and wait. No wood. No gas. No smoke alarm giving you a concert. It heats from the top and the bottom at the same time, so your crust gets crispy while the cheese gets melty. It's the pizza oven version of training wheels, and there is no shame in training wheels.

It's also light as a feather at around 9 pounds, so you can tuck it in a cupboard when dinner's done. Cleanup is easy too. Let it cool, wipe it out, and you're free. That heat sees your leftover flour and says, 'not today.' Great for apartments, dorms, and anyone who does not have a backyard.

Now for the honest part, because Dad does not fib. The Piezano runs cooler than the big outdoor ovens, topping out around 800°F instead of 900-plus. That means a few minutes of cooking instead of 60 seconds, and a crust that's tasty but not quite that blistered, leopard-spotted pizzeria look. The build is also thin and light, more picnic plate than tank, so treat it gently and it'll treat you right.
