Shoppers can save £100 on my favourite pizza oven that rivals Ooni and Ninja
Pizza ovens are heating up back gardens across the UK as demand for outdoor cooking continues to rise. With more people investing in at-home dining experiences, wood-fired and gas-powered pizza ovens are proving more popular than ever.
In my opinion, one of the best you can buy comes from Gozney - and I should know because I have one. The Gozney Arc is touted as being the "world's most advanced compact oven for creating a 14-inch pizza." It can hit a scorching 500°C and comes equipped with a revolutionary burner.
The Arc is just one of the offerings from Gozney, and right now shoppers can save on selected pizza ovens and accessories until August, 6. With up to £350 off range-topping ovens in the Gozney sale, these are investment pieces that make outdoor cooking really easy.
Elsewhere in the range, the Gozney Dome is a high-end, dual-fuel outdoor pizza oven that runs on wood or gas and is capable of reaching temperatures over 950°F to cook restaurant-quality Neapolitan pizzas in just 60–90 seconds. Designed for serious home cooks, it features a 16-inch cooking surface, built-in digital thermometer, adjustable air vents and professional-grade insulation for consistent heat.
As well as making perfect pizza, it can roast, bake, steam and smoke, making it a versatile outdoor cooking tool. Usually on sale for £1,799, shoppers can save £350, with the price slashed to £1449.99.
For pizza on the go, the Gozney Tread is a lightweight, ultra-portable pizza oven designed for outdoor cooking anywhere. Built with rugged materials, it supports high-temperature cooking and fits a 12' pizza or cast-iron pan. It can be paired with the Venture Stand and an attachable cutting board to make a compact outdoor kitchen setup. Reduced from £499 to £399, it's a worthy alternative to the likes of Ooni and Ninja.
Back to my favourite - The Arc. Easy to use straight out of the box, it was up and running in under 10 minutes. Once connected to the gas it was ready to go.
The battery-powered LED display lets me see how hot it is getting, although it takes around 30-40 minutes to reach 400°C. The oven gets extremely hot, and once the pizza is in, it cooks in literally 60 seconds.
The first time I used it I thought that was a sales pitch, but I got caught out when I turned my back and it burnt, so very quick. I would recommend watching while it cooks to ensure the pizza comes out perfectly cheesy and authentically delicious.
Stylish, expertly designed and a top-tier pizza oven – this gadget is far from a novelty. I'm ready to serve up pizzas all summer that are so delicious, I doubt we'll even consider takeaways.
The Gozney Arc, a truly ground-breaking outdoor oven that whips up fantastic pizza in a flash, can be bought online for £599.99 directly from Gozney. And if you're keen on the tall pizza oven stand, it'll cost you an extra £249.99 - but honestly, I think it is worth it.
Naturally, there are other pizza ovens available. The Ooni is perhaps one of the most recognised brands in the UK, boasting a range of pizza ovens to cater to everyone. The Ooni Karu Multi-Fuel Outdoor Pizza Oven is a top-selling model, presently on offer with 30% off, reduced from £699 to £489.30.
Other Ooni favourites include the Ooni Karu 12 Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven, on sale for £299, and the Karu 2 2nd Generation Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven, now £349 at Lakeland.
Elsewhere, the Big Horn Outdoor Pizza Oven is a good alternative for buyers on a budget. On sale for £149.40, buyers have called it "A pizza lover's dream."
But it's not just me who is smitten with my Gozney pizza oven. One five-star review on the website said: "I wish I could give this oven more than five stars. I bought the Arc model, which is truly a work of art.
"Even the packaging is beautifully designed. From the moment you open the box, you can see the attention to detail and high-quality craftsmanship. I've made pizzas and sandwiches in it, and the results have been amazing. This is easily one of the best purchases I've made for my happiness."
Another added: "This oven is a huge step up - heat retention is amazing with thicker stone, and side flame gives great visibility at its hottest point. It looks cool too and gets a lot of love and admiring comments. Awesome".
However, not all users found it to be a straightforward experience, with one sharing a less than stellar three-star review: "We are still trying to figure it out. We keep burning our pizzas, or they are uncooked all the way."
Nonetheless, the Gozney Arc and its array of accessories seem to have won a place in the hearts of pizza lovers far and wide, with another five-star review encapsulating the sentiment: " Game changer for professional quality pizza at home."
