You should consider the capacity of a pizza oven interior as pizza size depends on it. Generally, home pizza ovens can accommodate up to 14'' pizza. Speaking of electric pizza ovens, it's important to highlight the heating elements. Depending on the model, a pizza oven can have one or two heating elements. We'd like to recommend you to decide in favor of the pizza oven with a dual heating element since the top and bottom heating elements provide thorough baking from inside out. Power is another essential criterion while choosing a pizza oven. Usually, modern appliances have a power of 1200 - 1450 watts. The power of a pizza oven influences the time necessary for baking pizza. Thus, more powerful ovens have the undeniable advantage over the low-powered appliances.

Some of the pizza ovens are equipped with adjustable thermostats and different baking settings which allow you to set the temperature or choose the setting conforming to your needs.

Apart from that, some models with dual heating elements allow selecting the working mode of one heating element (top, bottom) or both at a time. Thus, you can control the baking process more accurately.

Mostly, electric pizza ovens are made of durable stainless steel, but some pizza ovens of the premium class come with a ceramic baking tray that helps get crispy golden crust.
Did you know?
- The very first known pizzeria that is still currently operating is believed to be Antica Pizzeria. The establishment was opened somewhere around 1738 in a city known as Naples located in the southern part of Italy. Before the aforementioned establishment's inception came to fruition, this now traditional Italian dish was mostly sold by street vendors that would make it in wood-fired ovens and bring the product onto the street.
- Back in the days, the pizza was actually considered to be somewhat of a peasant food that was mostly sold by working class Italians and eaten predominantly by the poorest elements of Italian society. It wasn't until the turn of the 20th century that some of the more wealthy citizens of Italy started to develop a taste for this delicious element of their country's cuisine and began to frequent establishments that would serve pizza.
- The word "pizza" itself is probably older than you might think, dating back over a thousand years. It is believed to be first mentioned in an ancient Latin text that was written somewhere in southern Italy around the turn of the 10th century.
- The most expensive pizza in the world costs almost 9 thousand pounds. As ridiculous as it may sound, there's actually a pizza in Salerno, Italy that has its own specific name Louis XIII (obviously named after the famous French king with Italian heritage) and that costs a "measly" sum of just about 10000 euros. As you might imagine, this is by no means an ordinary pizza, with the dough being aged perfectly before three chefs arrive at your house. Yes, you did read it right, they will bring this culinary masterpiece to fruition in the comforts of your own kitchen. The ingredients used in this extravagant pizza include but aren't limited to a combination 3 different types of caviar, lobster from Norway, Cilento, bufala mozzarella cheese, and grains of pink Australian sea-salt from the Murray River. Of course, we can't tell you if this lavish pizza is worth this kind of money nor can you classify it as a homemade one, but, at the very least, the entire experience will inevitably turn out to be quite a story to tell.
- This one wouldn't come as any sort of surprise to pizza enthusiasts or those that work or used to work in the industry, but the most popular pizza topping is pepperoni, and it isn't even close. A variety of different publications have conveyed countless surveys in order to find out the obvious truth that somewhere around a third of every pizza in the world is prepared using pepperoni as one of the topping ingredients, with sausage trailing behind as the number two option.
- The title of the world's largest pizza is actually a subject of disputes since it all depends on how you slice it. But, according to the Guinness Book of Records, the aforementioned title currently belongs to Dovilio Nardi, Andrea Mannocchi, Marco Nardi, Matteo Nardi, and Matteo Giannotte. The pizza prepared by these guys featured a total surface area of 13,580.28 ft² and the blokes from Guinness were there in order to document the entire thing.
FAQ:
Q: What is an optimal amount of power for an electric pizza oven?
A: Sorry to say, but there's really no such thing as an optimal amount of power that will be able to suit every application and any user perfectly. It all comes down to what is it you're looking for in a model. If you do not have too much free time to waste, you should probably look for the kind of model that feature as much power as possible, since the power the pizza maker has, the less time it takes for it to reach the maximum temperature. If a pizza oven has approximately 1500 Watts of power and a peak temperature of 250 degrees Celsius, it will take the model no more than a few minutes to reach the aforementioned temperature, so take that into consideration before choosing the appropriate kitchen appliance suitable for your needs.
Q: What maximum temperature should I be looking for?
A: Speaking of maximum temperature, a short answer is there's really no downside to having as much of it as possible present in your model, so if you have the appropriate financial means, you should definitely look for the kind of model that is capable of reaching the highest possible number you can find. A long answer is that a higher temperature is going to allow the heat to penetrate each part of the pizza much more thoroughly, which will more likely result in the crust being more crisp on the outside and chewy in the middle. The pizza itself will be charred in spots, giving the whole slice that slightly smoky flavour that you can otherwise only get from brick ovens. And the toppings are far more likely to be prepared beautifully and take on some char of their own.
Q: Do I really need to have 2 heating elements in order to prepare a great pizza?
A: The answer to this question mostly depends on what you are looking to do with the oven itself. If you're buying it strictly for the purpose of cooking pizza, then we highly recommend looking for the one with 2 heating elements since they're capable of baking your favourite piece of Italian cuisine much more thoroughly. They don't really add too much in terms of cost, so you will hardly be able to save some money trying to strike this bargain. But, if what you're looking for isn't just a device that will allow you to bake some pizza, but also a kitchen appliance that is capable of preparing a variety of other meals, then it is a whole other question.
Q: I want to cook a standard-sized pizza. Which oven should I choose?
A: These standards vary not just as far as countries go but also depending on the pizza chains and restaurants. But, generally speaking, when it comes to the UK, the majority of establishments serve small ones at 24 centimetres (9.5 inches), medium ones at 29 cm (11.5 "), and large ones at 34 centimetres (13.5 inches), so you should look for the type of model that supports exactly the kind of dimensions that best suit your needs and preferences.
