The best pizza oven gives you something a domestic oven simply can't: enough heat for a blustered, risen crust before the bubbling toppings overcook. The question is, which type suits your space, budget and patience?
You don't need a garden either. Indoor pizza ovens will cook a proper pizza from your kitchen countertop.
Choosing the right pizza oven depends on your space, preferences and budget. I've been testing pizza ovens for four years now, but we've been putting them to the test for much longer than that. To help you choose the right one for your needs, I've tested a wide range of models, assessing their heat efficiency, build quality and ease of use.
Whether you're an aspiring pizzaiolo or simply want a fuss-free way to level up your homemade pizza nights, this expert-tested guide to the best pizza ovens has something for everyone. Don’t forget to check out our picks for the best pizza oven accessories, best pizza stones and best pizza cutters, too.

Why you can trust Good Food reviews
At Good Food, the expert testing team has thoroughly reviewed a wide range of around 40 pizza ovens, using our established matrix format to ensure each model is assessed fairly and consistently.
All testing is carried out in the Good Food Test Kitchen and garden, which is designed to mirror a typical home kitchen rather than a laboratory setting. Where our freelance contributors test, they do so in their own gardens. For pizza ovens, that means we're not just looking at how they perform on paper. We build them, move them around, fire them up, cook with them in real conditions and consider all the details that matter at home, from how easy they are to light to how quickly they heat up and how consistently they cook.
I'm really into my garden, cooking and generally getting out into nature, so every year when pizza oven testing comes around, I jump at the opportunity. It's one of those rare bits of kit that brings together so many good things: being outside, cooking from scratch and sharing food with other people.
Our reviews are entirely independent. We don't share our findings with manufacturers or retailers prior to publication, and we never accept payment or incentives in exchange for positive reviews. This means that our recommendations are impartial and trustworthy, so you can feel confident when choosing a pizza oven based on our advice.
Best pizza ovens to buy in 2026
Gozney Arc XL
Available from Gozney (£799.99)
Best all-round pizza oven
Pros:
- Simple and quick to set-up
- Attractive design
- Generous internal cooking space
Cons:
- No accessories included
We’ve tested the whole Gozney range and it’s fair to say that if you’re serious about pizza, it's the brand to invest in. I tested the Gozney Arc XL, which sits at the top end of Gozney’s mid-range offering. It’s compact, but comes with many of the elements we love from its pricier siblings in the Dome range, like the digital thermometer and wide, open mouth.
The Arc XL is ready to go straight out of the box – all you need to do is pop the batteries (provided) in the temperature controls and connect it to your gas.
I adore the temperature controls on the front: they’re clear, easy to read and show exactly when it’s best to launch your pizza. All my test pizzas cooked in around a minute and exited the oven with mottled crusts, oozy cheese, crisp-cupped pepperoni and solid bases. I cooked sausages and corn on the cob in the oven too, which both sat in a cast-iron skillet. There was plenty of room to get the skillet in and the temperature dial allowed for total control, meaning I was able to lower the temperature to cook the sausages and whack it up high to evenly brown the outside of the corn, leaving the inside juicy.
My only gripe with the Arc XL (and all Gozney pizza ovens, in fact) is that to get the most out of the ovens, you really need to invest in the rest of the Gozney ecosystem; a peel is a must, but I also think the stand (£249.99) is a worthwhile investment. But, for me, this a piece of kit that isn’t just reserved for summer cooking, and therefore one to buy if your budget allows.

Gozney Dome XL (Gen 2)
Available from Gozney (£2,499.99)
Best blowout pizza oven
Pros:
- Comes fully assembled
- Very easy to use
- Spacious cooking surface
- Versatile
- One-year warranty as standard, can be extended to five
Cons:
- No accessories included
- Weighs 73kg, so you need multiple people to help unbox
Star rating: 5/5
If you’re serious about pizza the Gozney Dome XL (Gen 2) is about as aspirational as it gets. This is the brand’s largest and most capable oven to date and it feels every inch the flagship. It arrives fully assembled, heats to 500C in around 40 minutes and features a clear digital display showing both stone and ambient temperatures, which makes pizza party cooking far more precise than most rivals.
The cooking floor is generous enough for an 18-inch pizza or multiple smaller pies, making it ideal for entertaining. Gas comes as standard, while an optional wood kit allows you to add smoky depth with far more control than traditional wood-fired ovens usually offer. Over testing, it delivered consistently crisp bases and beautifully blistered crusts.
It’s undeniably large, heavy and expensive, particularly once you factor in accessories like the stand and cover. But the build quality is exceptional and its versatility goes well beyond pizza, doubling as a capable outdoor oven and smoker with the right add-ons.
For committed home cooks with the space and budget, this is one of the most impressive pizza ovens you can buy.

Gozney Arc Lite
Available from Gozney (£349.99)
Best pizza oven for small spaces
Pros
- Practically ready to go straight from the box
- Stylish good looks
- Heats rapidly to 500ºC
- Compact for smaller spaces
- Easy to carry at only 12 kg
Cons
- No accessories
- No built in temperature display
Star rating: 5/5
Whether it’s your first pizza oven or you’re already a Gozney fan, this oven is tastefully understated, with a simple operating button. It’s compact and perfect for smaller spaces like balconies, small gardens or even campsites and at just 12 kilos it's easy to carry.
Within five minutes of unpacking and connecting to the gas the Arc Lite was alight and, in just 20 minutes, ready to cook. Being a compact oven, I could only cook one pizza at a time but this wasn’t a problem – they cook fast: my Neapolitan-style pie took 60 seconds, New York around four minutes, and calzone, five, delivering restaurant quality pies. The oven isn’t just for pizza: I also cooked a mushroom ragout, baby roast potatoes and a sharing sirloin, all beautifully done in just over 20 minutes.
The Arc Lite also comes with a five-year guarantee and a great range of accessories available separately. At £349,99 it's the cheapest way into Gozney's range but it doesn't feel like the budget option.

Ooni Volt 2 pizza oven
Available from Ooni (£499), Lakeland (£499)
Best indoor pizza oven
Pros:
- Easy to set up
- Large viewing window
- Clear controls
- Fully recyclable packaging
Cons:
- Large for a countertop appliance at 26.3 x 44.2 x 54.5cm
- Not suitable for outdoor use
- Can get a little smoky when temperatures are at their highest
Star rating: 5/5
Now the weather's turned colder, the release of Ooni's newest pizza oven – the Volt 2 – couldn't be better timed, as with this oven you can make restaurant-quality pizza without even leaving your kitchen.
An upgrade of the Volt 12 (Ooni's first electric pizza oven, launched in 2023), the Volt 2 is 30 per cent more compact than its predecessor and has a larger viewing window, plus a 'Pizza Intelligence' oven-control system that adjusts the temperature in real time, helping you to achieve a more consistent bake.
Despite being smaller than the Volt 12, this oven still has a large footprint for a countertop appliance, and it's worth finding a dedicated space for it to ensure a safe perimeter around the oven. It can also get a little smoky, so I'd advise keeping your kitchen well ventilated to avoid fire alarms being set off.
On the plus side, there's ample space in the cavity and a wide range of temperature controls (20C-450C), so it can be used like a standard oven for cooking joints of meat and vegetables, and an oven rack is included.
Tested by Natalie Bass.
The 'Neapolitan' setting worked brilliantly, delivering a perfectly puffed, mottled crust and gooey cheese, as did the 'Thin and Crispy' preset. I also loved the adjustable 'crisping intensity' setting, which focuses more heat on the toppings if you want even crispier results.

Available from Ooni (£699), Amazon (£699), Lakeland (£699.99)
Best multi-fuel pizza oven
Pros:
- Flexible fuel options
- Quick cooking
- Large capacity with fold-in legs
- Includes a temperature probe for cooking meats
- Five-year warranty when you register with Ooni
Cons:
- The gas burner is sold separately, so to be truly multifuel, it costs extra
- Some non-recyclable packaging
- Essential extras need to be bought separately
Star rating: 5/5
The Karu 2 Pro is undoubtedly an investment purchase, but could be worth the money if you plan to make the most of it.
It's a considerable upgrade of the Ooni Karu 16 pizza oven, with new extras like a food probe for roasting meats, a larger glass door to keep an eye on pizza as it cooks, and remote temperature monitoring when you pair it with the Ooni app.
Like the Karu 16, the Karu 2 Pro can also be operated using either wood, charcoal or gas (although the gas burner needs to be bought separately), offering flexibility and the potential to cook more than just pizza. Assembling and operating it is a breeze, and the digital thermometer – which attaches to the front – is brightly lit and comes with batteries included.
In test, it took just 1 minute, 45 seconds to produce a 16-inch pizza with a mottled crust, bubbling mozzarella, and crisp toppings – truly pizzeria-worthy results.
Necessities like a pizza peel aren't included in the price, but Ooni does offer a Karu 2 Pro bundle, which includes essential items like a peel, an all-weather cover, and a gas burner, as well as an ultimate bundle with extra accessories.

Available from Ooni (£899)
Best large pizza oven
Pros:
- 24-inch cooking area
- Clear digital temperature display
- Fully recyclable packaging
- Quick to set up and use
Cons:
- Unboxing and assembly is a two-person job
- Legs don't fold in for storage
Star rating: 5/5
This gas-powered model from Ooni is a serious piece of kit for pizza enthusiasts. Sporting a super-sized 24-inch cooking area, it can handle up to three 10-inch pizzas at the same time or, if you're feeling up to it, one 20-inch pizza – a challenge I rose to (and succeeded with) during our test.
The look and feel of the Koda 2 Max is very familiar and in line with the rest of Ooni's pizza oven range, though its enormous size means you'll need at least two people to unbox and assemble it. Inside the oven there are two pizza stones and two burners on each side, so you can cook two different dishes at different heat levels simultaneously.
I put it into practice by searing a ribeye steak in a cast-iron pan on the right and a 12-inch pizza on the left. The steak required a very hot temperature to get a golden sear, but was impressively tender. Make sure you have a good pair of protective oven gloves or BBQ gauntlets for handling skillets once preheated.
Perhaps the only downside of the Koda 2 Max is that the legs don't fold inwards, which might make it more difficult to store, but I'm really splitting hairs here. It was a joy to cook with, and making multiple pizzas at once without any complications felt like a huge win.

undefinedWitt Etna Rotante pizza oven
Available from Amazon (£449)
Best gas pizza oven
Pros:
- Unique rotating pizza stone
- Fantastic results
- Spacious
- Booster burner
Cons:
- 12-inch pizza took two minutes, despite 60 second claim
- Large and heavy
- Short warranty
- No temperature gauge
- Some non-recyclable packaging
Star rating: 5/5
Featuring an innovative rotating pizza stone, this is without doubt the easiest pizza oven to use that I've ever tested. It's a large unit that requires space to use and store, boasting a sleek design that's available in four colours.
Assembly is simple with two people. Once connected to the gas (butane), it lights like a gas hob – simply press and hold the flame and ignition buttons together. The lack of a temperature gauge is a glaring omission to this model, but the instructions are clear and accurate.
Our 16-inch pizza cooked in just under 2 minutes (despite the brand's claims that it can be done in 60 seconds), which is very quick. I yielded the best results when launching into a 500C oven, then turning the flames down to medium-low. The results were near-perfect, with a risen, mottled crust and oozy, slightly browned toppings.
The price point is bumped up by the hidden essentials of gas and batteries, plus a pizza peel. However, if you have the budget and your heart set on a gas-fired model, this is an excellent choice for fail-safe homemade pizzas every time.

Latest DealsGozney Tread pizza oven
Available from Gozney (£499.99)
Best pizza oven for camping
Pros:
- Easy to set up and operate
- Good-looking design
- Relatively lightweight, with handles for easy lifting
- Cools quickly
Cons:
- No accessories included
Star rating: 4.5/5
If you love the look of Gozney's pizza ovens but want something more compact, the Gozney Tread will definitely fit the bill.
At 13.5kg, it's not exactly designed for campers hiking cross-country, but it is the most lightweight option within Gozney's range and has handles across the top for easy lifting. At 32cm high, it also should slot easily into the boot of a car.
It's the least expensive of Gozney's dome-shaped ovens, though bear in mind that to get the best results from the Tread, it's worth investing in accessories like the Venture stand, mantel, travel bag and roof rack, plus essentials like a pizza peel – all of which add to the overall cost.
In test, I loved how easy the Tread was to operate and had no issues controlling the temperature. It also delivered quality results at speed, and my pizzas were perfectly cooked in just 1 minute, 30 seconds.
After switching off the heat I was impressed by how quickly the oven cooled, too, which means you can have it packed away and ready for your next pitstop in no time.

undefinedDelivita New Diavolo Gas-Fired Pizza Oven
Available from John Lewis and Partners (£199), Amazon (£215.99)
Best portable pizza oven
Pros
- No assembly needed
- Fully portable
- A range of accessories included
- Gas canister included
Cons
- Not enough detail on cooking pizza for a beginner
- No flame guard so edges of pizza can catch and burn easily
Star rating: 4.5/5
Who would have thought a pizza oven could be portable? Delivita has, with its new Diavolo. I found it extremely sturdy without being heavy and in its carry bag it's easy to transport to the beach, festivals, campsites or the back garden.
The Diavolo is ready to use straight out of the box: just unfold the legs and start cooking. It comes with two gas regulators (one for a gas bottle and one for the canister included in the pack), plus a foldable peel and a thermometer gun.
There's a single control knob to regulate the heat. I started on high and the oven came up to temperature quickly. Once there, I reduced the heat before launching the pizza, the results were great, with a crisp base and evenly bubbling cheese. I also tried flatbreads and a vegetable ragu, which showed the oven's versatility beyond pizza.
My only niggle is the lack of a flame guard, meaning edges can catch and burn easily. The instructions could also do more to guide a first-time user through the process.
At £199 with this level of kit and portability, it's excellent value.

ProCook gas pizza oven
Available from ProCook (£249)
Best basic pizza oven
Pros:
- 360 turning dial to manually rotate the pizza stone
- Fully recyclable packaging
- Non-slip feet
- Quality materials
Cons:
- No peel included
- Stone heats unevenly, so you have to keep turning
- Outside and beneath the oven gets very hot
- No temperature gauge
Star rating: 4.5/5
If you just want a simple pizza oven that does the basics well, this gas model from ProCook will fit the bill. The 360 degree turning dial on the right-hand side of the oven, which allows you to manually rotate the pizza stone to ensure a more even bake, is a great little extra, too.
Everything about the oven feels premium despite the lower price point, and while unboxing I was delighted to see only recyclable packaging materials had been used.
Setting it up was quick and straightforward, with the oven hitting approx 300C in about half an hour, though we had to use a temperature gun to check the heat as there's no inbuilt thermometer. The oven doesn't come with a pizza peel, either, so you'll need to purchase this separately.
I found the 360C turning dial was essential to getting an even bake, as without it the front of the stone was significantly cooler than the middle and back, leaving parts of the crust a touch doughier than those on the other side of the pizza.
That said, the minimal effort required to turn the dial is a small price to pay for an otherwise well built, quality pizza oven that's relatively inexpensive, too.

Available from Ninja (£299.99), Argos (£300)
Best electric pizza oven
Pros:
- Affordable price point
- Multi-functional
- Very convenient
- Heats up fast
Cons:
- The design might not be to everyone’s liking
- Not for pizza purists
- Top temperature is relatively low at 370C
- Needs outdoor socket or suitable extension lead
Star rating: 4.5/5
If convenience and versatility is what you’re after, this is the ideal piece of kit. Like other Ninja products, the oven is quick and easy to set up, with the pre-cook phase taking roughly 20 minutes to heat up (and conveniently beeping when it’s ready).
I enjoyed the five different in-built pizza cooking settings, including Artisan, Thin Crust, New York, Pan and Custom, and they came in particularly handy when following some of the recipes provided in the accompanying recipe booklet.
The oven comes with a 12-inch pizza stone, plus a cooking basket and baking tray for its air fryer setting – as a break from pizza I cooked a salmon, potato and vegetable traybake and the results were impressive.
Admittedly, I was somewhat sceptical about cooking pizza in an electric pizza oven at first, with the lack of smoke and fire and the fact that it only reaches a maximum temperature of 370C slightly off-putting.
However, the pizzas I cooked were some of the best I've tasted – the base was puffy and evenly cooked after roughly two minutes and there was even some charring, to lend it a true artisan feel.
Another big benefit of this electric model is I could leave the pizzas cooking while nipping inside to fetch ingredients, without having to monitor the oven or worrying about it losing heat or the flame dying out. Handily, when using one of the pre-set options, the pizza oven beeps when it’s time to remove the pizza from the oven.
As well as output, it’s also nifty in size (the unit itself is 32cm high by 59cm length and 42cm width) – so much so that you could easily take it camping for example, if you had access to an electric hookup.

How we tested pizza ovens
Every pizza oven we review is put through the same testing matrix, so each model answers the same questions, whether it was tested in the Good Food Test Kitchen garden or in one of our expert testers' own gardens. Pizza ovens have become a year-round thing and so has the launch of new products, meaning that we test all year round, always outdoors and in real conditions, rather than a lab.
We've been testing pizza ovens this way for seven years, covering around 40 models to date. A single test, from unboxing and assembly all the way through to the final pizza can take anywhere from 1-4 hours, depending on the oven. The cooking is the quick bit: once an oven is up to temperature, a pizza only takes a couple of minutes. But, no verdict here rests on one afternoon of cooking. Each tester keeps the oven for around a month, cooking with it in their own garden as often as they like, so our ratings reflect what the oven is actually like to live with, not just how it performs on its first outing.
In every oven, we cook two benchmark pizzas: classic margherita and a topped pizza, both made with Northern Dough Co pre-made dough, meaning any difference in the bake comes from the oven, rather than the dough. We follow the manufacturer's recommended pizza temperature where one is given, and aim for around 450C where it isn't. Every finished pizza is then scored out of 10, and this score feeds into the overall star rating.
After years of testing, we've learned not to take the oven's word for how hot it is. Before launching our pizza, we take a temperature reading of the stone using an infrared thermometer gun and compare it against the oven's own temperature display, if it has one. We also record how long it takes the oven to reach the optimum temperature, keeping in mind that a pizza oven will heat up a lot quicker on a hot summer's day compared to a cool spring afternoon.
Pizza is only part of the picture; our testers also cook whatever else they fancy in the oven, which can be anything from steaks and vegetables to roast potatoes and more, to see how it performs as an oven.
Each model was scored against standardised criteria and marked out of five on the following core aspects. These scores determine the overall star rating:
- Overall build quality: pizza ovens are investment purchases, and therefore should be built to last
- Cooking results: the ultimate criteria – we score the finished pizzas out of 10
- Ease of build and use: we time how long it takes to build the oven and rate the instruction manual. We then assess how easy it is to use the oven
- Safety: pizzas require incredibly high temperatures to cook, so we look for excellent insulation and safety features to make using the pizza oven easy to use
- Value for money: if the price doesn't feel right, it doesn't make it into the best list
- Sustainability: as well as looking at whether the packaging can be recycled, we check the warranty of each pizza oven and investigate whether it's easy to source spare parts or arrange repairs
What to look for in a pizza oven
Budget
Start by setting your budget – but know that more money does not always mean a better pizza. If you're looking to spend a few hundred pounds, ignore large, built-in stone ovens as these complex products are very expensive, usually costing at least £500.
Storage
Consider the space you have available. The smallest pizza ovens I've tested are the BBQ-top models, which thanks to their small, boxy size, can easily be stored in a garage, shed or even inside somewhere.
A number of the models on this list have easy foldaway legs, meaning they too will take up very little room when not in use. Some of the larger models I've tested will need to be kept outside in all weathers, in this case, a cover is an absolute must.
Set-up
I took ease of set up into consideration when testing each of these pizza ovens. Whilst you should take this into consideration when buying, I also suggest working out the best place to put your pizza oven for use.
I spoke to the reviews experts at Gardeners' World who said, "it’s best to place your pizza oven wherever you’ve put your social areas, to save you carrying pizzas up and down the garden. They can look fantastic on modern garden tables and make an excellent focal point for entertaining."
"Pizza ovens are safest on stone or concrete patios, but with some heat-proof material underneath they should be perfectly safe on wooden decks too. Site your pizza ovens a few metres away from fire hazards like fences and low-hanging branches. Make sure there’s open space above your oven for smoke to escape and you’re good to go".
You should also consider an area that best allows for smooth launching of your pizzas, plus plenty of surface space to both build your pizzas and plate them up once cooked.
Accessories
Take a look at which accessories your chosen pizza oven comes with. In our eyes, a pizza peel is an essential, but some brands don't provide these as standard, and this will be an additional cost.
Fuel type
Some will be gas-fuelled, others need wood, or it may be a multi-fuel. Indoor pizza ovens plug into the mains so don't need any other means of generating heat.
Gas pizza oven vs wood-fired pizza oven
Gas or wood-fired, which do you choose? There's no definite answer to this question as it's simply a matter of preference. That being said, the two fuel-types do make for very different cooking and eating experiences.
So, it really is down to you to work out what you want from your new pizza oven. And don't forget, electric and indoor pizza ovens are also available.
Gas
Gas-fired pizza ovens are generally cleaner to use as there is no need to sweep up any ash after use. They're also quicker to heat up than their wood-fired counterparts.
Gas-fired pizza ovens work similarly to a gas hob and have a dial to control the flame, which not only gives you greater control over the cook of the pizza, but also means you're able to use the oven for other items too.
However, you of course need to buy gas and, if you don't have a bottle already, the initial payment for the bottle can push the price up further.
Wood-fired
If you're after an authentic flavour, a wood-fired pizza oven is the only choice. The burning wood pellets impart a delicious smoky flavour that simply can't be achieved by cooking with gas.
Another plus for wood-fired pizza ovens is the fact that you don't need to buy a gas canister as wood pellets can be picked up pretty easily from supermarkets or online. Wood-fired models do require some practice though as they can be a little more difficult to handle when it comes to controlling the temperature.
Multi-fuel
If you can't make up your mind or you like the sound of what both fuel-types offer, opt for a multi-fuel model. Whilst you won't be able to cook with gas and wood at the same time, I feel the two fuel-types are ideal for different situations.
Cook with gas when you're entertaining and want to churn out consistently tasty pizzas for a crowd. For chilled out evenings with your nearest and dearest, use wood and take your time.
