  • Most features

    Gino D'Acampo Carbonio: 14 inch gas oven, 12 mm stone

    It takes 14 inch pizzas on a 12 mm cordierite stone, with 90 second bakes stated.

    Check price on AmazonAffiliate link

A 12 inch oven is fine for one or two people, but it slows things down at a party. Bigger ovens let you stretch 14 inch pizzas, launch with more margin for error, or bake two pizzas side by side. The trade-off is weight and space: large ovens are heavier, take more fuel and need a solid table or stand. When you compare them, check the pizza size the maker states, the stone or floor size, the fuel, the stated top temperature and the weight. This guide compares five large outdoor ovens on those points, from 14 inch gas ovens with folding legs to wood-fired ovens with a floor big enough for two pizzas, using only what each listing states. Where a figure is missing, the table says Not stated, so you know what to ask the seller.

No. 1 · IGNEUS

Igneus Classico: wood-fired, 60 x 60 cm floor, two pizzas

WOOD · 45 kg

A wood-fired oven with a 60 x 60 cm firebrick floor that bakes two 12 inch pizzas at once. Door, chimney with damper, thermometer and fireguard come with it.

In its favour

  • The 60 x 60 cm floor fits two 12 inch pizzas, or one large pizza with room to turn it.
  • Igneus states 500°C after 15 to 20 minutes on kiln-dried hardwood logs.
  • Firebricks lift out to bring the weight from 45 kg to 20 kg for moving it.

Good to know

  • At 45 kg with bricks it needs a strong table or stand.
  • Wood logs need more tending than a gas dial, and ash to clear afterwards.

In its favour

Gino D'Acampo Carbonio: 14 inch gas oven, 12 mm stone

GAS · 18 kg

Good to know

No. 4 · Gino D'Acampo

Gino D'Acampo Modena: 14 inch gas oven, flag stripe

GAS · 18 kg

The Modena is the same 14 inch gas format with a matte black body and an Italian flag stripe. A 12 mm cordierite stone and folding legs come with it.

In its favour

  • A 14 inch oven with a 12 mm cordierite stone, with 15 minute heat-up stated.
  • Gino states stone-baked pizzas in 90 seconds once hot.
  • At 65 x 44 cm it is more compact than the Carbonio model.

Good to know

  • The listing names the oven, stone and manual only, with no regulator or peel.

No. 5 · Generic

Tiled brick wood-fired oven with door, 840 mm

WOOD

A tiled brick wood-burning oven with a door, sold as a commercial unit. It suits a pub garden or restaurant that wants live fire as part of the show.

In its favour

  • A brick and tile build gives the heat-holding mass of a traditional pizzeria oven.
  • Wood firing means no electrical supply to plan for.
  • The listing includes a door to hold heat between bakes.

Good to know

  • The listing states almost nothing beyond brick, tile and 840 mm.
  • It needs a permanent base and wood storage, neither of which is mentioned.
