Fontana Forni Margherita Wood-Fired Pizza Oven On Cart - Stainless - FTMAR-S

I'm not going to comment on how this oven cooks, because quite frankly I haven't had a chance to experience all it can do! We KNOW what it can do! But I will comment on the overall experience of purchasing and assembling it. The oven arrived within days after ordering, securely attached and shrink-wrapped to a nice 4-way pallet. I also ordered the cart, shelf, riser, accessory kit, and cover. I worked with Pete at Fontana and couldn't be happier with the service he provided. He quickly answered all of my email questions before I also spoke with him on the phone. He was very nice and helpful! Thanks Pete! As an aircraft tech by trade, I'm very familiar with sheet metals and how they are manufactured. The quality of stainless steel used in these ovens is outstanding. The parts appear to be perfectly cut with a laser, with very few sharp edges or burrs to cut your hands, unlike stamped or blade cut metals. No edges to have to file down! The hardware is even high quality stainless. The parts went together perfectly with no problems whatsoever. Even someone that is not mechanically inclined will have no problems putting these ovens together. The diagram instructions are self-explanatory and easy to follow. By the way, all the metal is covered with a protective film you have to peel off, so you won't have to worry about scratches. And it's very easy to peel off! I couldn't be happier with this purchase!

We received our Margherita oven a few weeks ago, and we were impressed with the quality. We tried it out and found it easy to use and it made great pizzas and everyone in the family had a great time! We're looking forward to having many pizza parties with friends. Highly recommend.

I started my artisan pizza making adventures in 2017. At the time I had no idea if it would be a hobby I would want to make the significant investment into a large pizza oven. I ended up going with a Ooni Pro which was great because of its portability (and the relatively low investment cost) but not great for producing multiple consistent pizzas. There was too much of a swing in oven temps between pizzas due to the lack of insulation. On average I would make 3 pizzas each weekend for the family so over the course of 6 years that was a lot of pizza and I feel I have firmly committed to the enjoyment of making pizzas. So after a lot of research and comparison of large pizza ovens I decided to take the Fontana Forni plunge. Let me say that from the first bake I quickly realized that I have been short changing myself for years. I popped out three perfect 12" pizzas. The Margherita is simply AMAZING. The temp was easy to lock in and maintain. The bake was perfect and required much less babysitting that the small portable oven. And I was amazed at how well insulated the oven was at 750 degrees the exterior of the oven was nice and cool to the touch. This oven is worth the cost. I also want to thank the Fontana Forni team (Pete) for answering all my questions throughout my purchase process. I know my family will enjoy many years of pizzas and other baked and roasted items in my Margherita.

simply the best

Love the oven, we use it lots

Since purchasing our Fontana Margherita Wood-Fired Oven back in 2015, it has become our go-to party night favorite among family and friends. There's nothing better than gathering around the oven, after taking turns customizing pizzas, and seeing what beautiful works of art emerge. We can count on our Fontana oven for consistent cooking temperature and performance. We have recommended this oven to countless friends.

I've had my oven for a few years now and am just getting around to reviewing it. It has held up beautifully and turns out perfect pizza. I highly recommend!

Our pizza oven gets used very frequently. It's great when hosting guests and parties. The pizza quality is amazing and it's a fun activity too. And it looks great in the back yard. I highly recommend Fontana. It's a very high quality product.

A pizza oven made in Italy makes all the difference!!! it is an outstanding oven. Also Fontana is a great family owned company. The customer service is great.

This this the 2nd oven I have purchased. I have one in Maine and in North Carolina where I have access to hardwood to bake bread, roast chickens, roast garden fresh vegetables and an occasional pizza.
