When I got back from Italy I started making my own pizza. I use a microwave/convection oven for convenience, but it only goes up to 450. This one goes up to 572. Nice and hot and the pizza cooks in 6 minutes! My big oven is mostly for storing pots and pans, so this tabletop model is the perfect solution. Easy to move around, and the perfect size for a 10” pizza stone. The clunkiness has to do with the fact that the rack is connected to the door/handle, so you have to pull the rack out almost all the way to slide the pizza onto the stone from the side. Would be better if the door/handle flipped down and the rack stayed in the oven so you could slide the pizza in from the front. The other thing is that it indicated it could fit a 12” pizza stone, but it really can’t since the rack slide holders stick just a wee bit too far in. Finally, the temperature dial isn’t very exact, but that doesn’t seem to be a problem. This oven was affordable, so, balancing the few faults against the benefits, it works fine for me.
