Okaaay….I bit the bullet and bought one!

I pre heated it to rid any new chemical residuals (as advised in instructions) then made a gluten free vegetarian pizza and it cooked in 3 mins and was very tasty!
I like the glass viewer so I can see pizza cooking.

Only draw back is you can’t top a pizza too high or heat coils touch food.

But, impressed I am and it’s so quick to make a pizza.

Tonight I make Hawaiian pizza!

Stay tuned for tonight’s photo of pizza.
I reckon this lil oven will pay for itself considering costs of pizza and savings on pick up time.

I make pretty good Pizza that I like in the oven so don't know that I need one. It being quicker is a benifit. Looking forward to the Hawaiian review.

Cooked. See pic below.
Topping was really nice, cooked perfectly, and tasty, the bought pizza base was too thin and crispy.
I won’t buy it again.
The gluten free base yesterday was so much better. Was thicker and more rustic looking albeit cost more.
But, my next pizza will be with home made base, of course. I had made it in past but wanted to spoil myself with store bought versions. Some are better than others that’s for sure.
Until next pizza venture

Looks great - I prefer thin and crispy - don't like it thick and doughy
