Score: 81/100Rankings
The Solo Stove Pi Prime is a propane-powered portable pizza oven reaching about 482 °C and cooking 12-inch pizzas in 1.5 minutes, offering rapid heat and sturdy stainless-steel construction. It requires a separate propane tank and has a low opening height that limits thicker pies. Best for campers and tailgaters who value fast, consistent heat.
The Ninja MO201 is an electric outdoor pizza oven that delivers up to 371 °C and cooks a 12-inch pizza in just three minutes, thanks to its precise temperature presets. Its main trade-off is the 30 lb weight and requirement for outdoor-only use. Ideal for backyard entertainers seeking hassle-free, flame-free pizza.
