How this oven bakes

Give the deck the full 15 min. Air temperature lies. The stone is slower.
Plan about 4 min between pies so the floor charges again.

Specifications

Temperature range: 80°C – 450°C
Inner size: 32 cm × 32 cm
Weight: 15.2 kg

Pros

Independent top/bottom heating from 80–450°C — rare at this price, lets you tune crust vs. top browning separately
5 factory presets (Napoli, Thin & Crispy, NY, Pan, Frozen) plus fully manual DIY mode
Double-glazed door: safer for indoor use and lets you watch the pizza without opening
1700W at 450°C is enough for a genuine Neapolitan bake in under 2 minutes

Cons

Square baking stone wastes corner space — roughly 70% effective surface with round pizza
Bulky footprint closer to a small toaster oven than a focused pizza appliance
30-minute preheat to reach full 450°C is longer than the price suggests

How the calculator uses this oven

Temperature and bake time. It reaches 450°C. At the default hydration, the calculator bakes Traditional Napoletana (60%) at 450°C on the deck for about 85 seconds, and Pizza Classica (65%) at 278°C on the deck for about 6 minutes.
Baking surface. The calculator assumes the stock cordierite stone. Swap in a biscotto and Traditional Napoletana takes about 90 seconds instead of 85 seconds.
Hydration for this oven. It reaches the heat Traditional Napoletana wants, so the calculator keeps the style's 58–65% hydration.
Baker corrections. Bake times learn from bakers' reports on this oven. A correction starts once at least 5 successful bakes from 3 different bakers share the same style and surface.

Formulas this oven bakes
