Customer Ratings & Reviews

This thing works really well, still working on my dough recipe, but good product.

We got this because we thought it would cook pizza better than our camper oven. Cooks very uneven. Constantly have to rotate the pizza. Definitely don’t buy.

I recommend there is a recall and every one gets there money back i used the oven 1 time and the stone broke and burnt black i had it couple weeks after 15days and best buy does not care this item is literally trash i dont see the other negative comments best buy probably taking them down i advise look for another name brand pizza oven

Takes forever to heat up. Trying to cook a frozen pizza the crust doesn't cook.

Pizza gets overcooked in rear of oven, product will be returned .

Too small, difficult to add and remove food,pizza stone is inset and very awkward to remove to clean and frustrating to get pizza on, also the oven seems to cook the top much faster than the crust, but does preheat quickly

The bella Pro Blaze Pizza Oven is fun and frustrating all at the same time. The oven itself is well made. It is relatively heavy and pretty well insulated, although the outside will get hot with extended use. You need to exercise caution when using, and keep small hands away. Operation is simple. Plug it in, and there are two dials. One for temp and one for time. You set the temp, let it preheat, and then add you food and set the timer. I think it has an auto shut off after 10 minutes if you get distracted and haven’t added your food. You can’t change the temp while cooking, so keep that in mind. It’s not a big deal, you just have to cancel the cook and reset the temp and time if you need to change the temp. You can add cook time if needed. Actually using it definitely has a learning curve. It’s essentially a small oven, so you can use it for just about anything even though it has pizza in the name. Just make sure you bakeware can handle whatever temperature you use. I’ve only used mine for pizza. I was disappointed that it didn’t come with any type of recipe book in the box. I’m having to figure out how to make a good pizza on my own through web searches and trial and error. I’m having trouble with my pizzas sticking to the peel and not wanting to slide off onto the preheated stone. I’m not quite sure how to solve that problem…maybe cornmeal? So far, I’ve found that my best option is to use my high temp meat smoking gloves and just pull the pre-heated stone out. Here is my process. Preheat, pull the stone, put the crust on the stone, pre-bake the crust for a full 5 minutes, pull the stone again, add toppings, and bake an additional 10 minutes. The Peel works great for taking it out of the oven. This is with a medium thickness crust. I completely understand that my ability to make a good pizza isn’t necessarily a function of this oven, but without any tips or tricks, I find it equally frustrating and fun. I think it would be fun for a backyard pizza party as a novel theme, but I’m not sure I’m really going to pull it out too often just to cook a pizza. I do think I’ll use it as an auxiliary oven around the holidays. It’s big, but not as big as I thought it might be. Make sure you have someplace you can store it when not in use. You have to clean it up or it will smoke on you when pre-heating. I find that crumbs end up off the stone when I use the peel to remove the pizza. Then I have to let it cool and try to wipe it all down after the fact. The crumbs get down under the bottom element and you have to do a little work to get them out. There isn’t a lot of room for hands and elbows in there. Not terrible, but I wouldn’t call it “easy”. Overall, I’m kind of underwhelmed. I had romanticized making pizza in an cool little oven, but if I’m being honest, it’s just as easy in my regular oven. Considering this isn’t wood fired, you don’t really get an improved flavor. It’s fun as a novelty, but I don’t find it superior to my normal oven. Perhaps if I learn how to make pizza at 700 degrees I’ll think differently, but since they didn’t tell me how to do that, I haven’t figure it out yet.

The oven box arrived ripped open and the oven is all scratched with scuff marks. Its difficult to tell of anything is missing... This seems to be common with BestBuy home deliveries, at least for me. I feel like their distribution center is just dropping the ball... Do a store pick up just in case so you can refuse it if its damaged in anyway.

Ended up having to cook the pizzas in a pan just to cook the bottom awful

Broke after first use, looks great but flawed product. There is a reason it is on sale, Don’t buy!

Complicated to operate. Resukts no better than regular oven

Overpriced when not on sale. Okay but doesn't heat evenly.

Did not work. A little bulky as well hato return would not power down.

TL;DR - The Bella Pro Blaze Pizza Oven+ is a serious contender for the ultimate kitchen appliance. It makes a solid pizza, it's terrific for baking small batches of cookies, biscuits and cakes, and it even does some air fryer things pretty well. The included pizza peel is easy to clean and use, as is the pizza stone. The only real negative is if you don't have the counter space for it, you'll need to put it away when not in use. Super solid value for sure, though. Unboxing and setup - This is definitely packaged well, but the foam insert is tight so you may need help with getting the unit out of the box. Once out, you'll need to remove a little bit of tape that holds the door shut. Put the pizza stone in it, and run it for 15 minutes at 750 degrees to get any residual oils and odors out of the oven and pizza stone. I'll cover the quirks of the controls in a bit. Assembly of the pizza peel is a little weird. I ended up punching the nut through the hole in it on the metal portion of the peel because the hole was a little small for the bolt. once the hole was enlarged, assembly was quick. Usage - while the controls do make sense, the lack of a dedicated stop cooking button is something I was surprised about. The knob on the left is temperature control and the knob on the right is a timer. To start the oven, just twist the knob to set your temperature and press the knob to start the pre-heating. Set the timer, and wait for your food. Once you're done cooking, you'll press the temperature knob twice to power the oven down (nothing on the display). Before you unplug, make sure you allow the unit to cool itself. I did make a few things with this oven - pizza, cookies, brownies, cake, chicken wings, and enchiladas. While there is a small learning curve with using the oven, everything came out perfect with some practice. The only complaint I have, like I said, is the lack of a dedicated stop cooking button. When you use the oven without reading the instruction manual, you'll wonder how to turn it off and possibly cause damage by pulling power while it's still hot. Other than that one thing, however, the Bella Pro Blaze Pizza Oven+ is a solid performer in any kitchen. A great option when you need something that can do it all and with ease.

We usually make pizza at home either in the oven, or on a pizza oven that sits on top of our BBQ. The BBQ pizzas are much better than the oven mainly because it gets much hotter between - 600 and 700 degrees and it heats from all sides. So you get a great crust and your pepperoni gets nice and crisp on top too. This is the key to great pizza at home in my opinion. We can really only do the BBQ pizzas in the summer, in the winter it is impossible to get the pizza oven upto to temp and keep it there. So this countertop oven should make it possible to get great pizza all year round! Now, for the Bella Blaze. It is very simple to use with only 2 controls, temp and timer. The timer doesn't work until it preheats. And it gets upto nice high temperatures so you can cook your pizza fast, still have a nice crispy crust and have your toppings cooked/crisped nicely as well. As with most pizza ovens, I think turning the pizza 180 degrees about 1/2 way through the cooking time is a good idea to even out any issues with uneven temperatures. When you're heating to such a high temp, it isn't easy to keep that temp even in the whole oven. Other nice things about the unit is that it is quiet and the outside does not get hot, so you don't have to worry about burning yourself until you open the door. The included pizza peel is essential for putting pizzas in and taking them out and turning the pizza during the cooking time. Some flour/semolina on the peel will make your pizzas slide on and off more easily as well if that is an issue. Overall, very happy with this, I doubt I will be making pizza in my oven any more!

As the title says we absolutely LOVE our bella Pro Blaze Pizza Oven+! It took me back to my teenage & young adult years when I worked at a franchise location for a nationwide pizza chain. Taking the pizza oven out of the box I found it nice that they included everything you need to get started including the pizza scraper/peel. Setting up the pizza oven was super easy & straight forward. I decided after I got it all unpackaged that I would take it upon myself to make pizza for us one night when my significant other had to work late. I followed the instructions and set the temp on the highest setting and cooked away everything that might have gotten into the oven during packaging & transport. I got the pizza ready & put it in the oven following the directions on the packaging for the pizza. I put it in the oven and cooked it for the recommended time. What I did not think about, or take into account was that just like a lot of ovens I've used in the past, including our current oven, I needed to rotate the pizza probably midway through cooking so as not to burn the back/rear side of the pizza. I did not do this and the pizza came out kind of burnt on that back/rear side that is farthest away from the door. Lesson learned on that one. The pizza still came out tasty & we really enjoyed it. Best of all it appears it takes less energy than our large oven and it seems to heat up our home less. Which is great during the warmer months. I showed it to my adult aged sons & they each said they would love to have one. So I'll be probably getting them one for Christmas this year. In closing, I found that the bella Pro Blaze Pizza Oven+ is a really great appliance in our home. This is our second bella product (along with the 9 qt tri-zone air fryer) and I must say that both of them are really great & we love them both. They have become staples in our home and we are utilizing them both fairly frequently. Of course I would recommend this item to family & friends as I already have for my sons and will be getting them each one for Christmas.

Love it! Crust is amazing! Def worth it!! Makes the perfect gift!

Based on the reviews Ive read, it seems that the timer is just bell sound. It doesnt actually stop the cooking! To me, that crazy! This oven goes to 700 degrees.. can you imagine?

Came exactly as expected and works beautifully! I would recommend it to others.

Odd malfunctioning appliance is not easy to operate
