What a great pizza oven. By the third use we had our system down and the pizza came out perfect. First two tries were not the ovens fault. It cooks a little hotter in the back but if you spin the pizza around half way through it cooks evenly Pizzas come out piping hot with a nice crust. Don’t use corn meal on your peel. It will burn and smoke up the house. A lesson we learned the hard way. We love this oven and look forward to pizza night.
