I want to thank you for all or your support as I assembled my oven. I researched many ovens on the internet, but what led me to you was your excellent and very responsive service. I emailed a few oven sites and you got back to me quickly, you spoke with me on the phone and told me about your oven and why it performed well. I then sent you a list of questions comparing your oven with others and you took the time to answer each question well. Finally because of your responses and support, I decided to buy your oven because I felt you would be there to help me through the process and you did. You sent me drawings more than a few times when my designs changed, you adjusted the drawings as my designs changed. Finally as my oven was done you let me know to build my stack 8 inches higher and reduce the cap size to 3-4 inches. I never felt that I was alone in the process; you were always there to help. What really surprised me was when I asked you what supplies to buy you sent me an email with each item and the product number so it was super easy to buy them, extra effort not expected. During the construction, whenever I had a question I could call you for help and you were always there. Many times once one buys a produce the support ends, with you, once I bought, the support got better. Thank you for all of your help. The picture attached is our first pizza from your Belforno oven. Thank you, when I need another it will be yours Frank.

The installation of the oven itself went well! We have already used it twice which was so exciting!! I managed to make 5 1/2 successful pizzas so far! LOL! One fell apart and another started too, but we saved half of it!! It was very empowering to be able to cook with wood!! And VERY yummy!!!

I am getting great use out of my oven. I’d say the average baking time on a pizza when the oven is properly fired is about two minutes or just slightly less. I’ve cooked ham, lamb, bread, fish and steak in it in addition to the pizzas. I love it! There’s nothing like sitting there in the courtyard after sundown eating some food that has just come out of the oven, occasionally glancing at the bed of coals and the flame that is still licking the dome of the oven. It really provides a gathering place for friends and family. We’ve started calling that part of our little spread the Courtyard Cafe!

Frank from Belforno was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable during my research process of a wood fired pizza oven. Once I decided on buying a Belforno oven Frank continued to assist with the planning of how to build my pizza oven to achieve optimal cooking results and even made a visit to my house to ensure proper installation. I’ve been cooking it now for 5 months and it’s the best pizza I’ve ever made…just ask my friends. Everyone loves it and we’re having a lot of fun entertaining with our new Belforno! Thanks Frank!!

We LOVE our oven! It’s become part of our life style. We really enjoy entertaining out by the pool. At least once a week we have a group of our friends over and enjoy an evening of make it yourself pizza’s. We have barely used the kitchen since we began cooking in our Belforno oven. At the beginning of the night we roast vegetables and or lamb lollipops or oysters. Then we move on to pizzas and at the end of the night we roast several different Stromboli’s and meats for the week. We eat our very healthy roasted chicken or lamb for days following or make chicken salads or fabulous Indian dishes. It’s a lot of fun and keeps us from being tied up cooking every night. At first we thought to install it just to add value to our home as we marketed it for sale but now we can’t live without it. Once we sell we’ll be planning the design of the next one! It’s now a fixture we cannot do without!
