Our smallest, residential, woodfired pizza oven, the Margherita Countertop was designed from the ground up to cook perfect, Italian wood-fired pizza. The Margherita Countertop heats up its floor surface to 750°F in just 30 minutes, allowing you to create pizza cooked to perfection on the wood-fired stone. For Neapolitan pizza lovers, the optional Saputo stones allow you to cook pizza at 850°F / 454.4°C without burning the bottom of the dough.Consuming 5x less wood than a traditional ceramic pizza oven, the Margherita Countertop is not only efficient, it is also compact, & portable making it an ideal choice for those who want a pizza oven for outdoor entertaining. You're not just limited to making pizza, the Margherita Countertop also excels at preparing meats, veggies, breads, & desserts.
