Best pizza ovens 2026, tried and tested for cooking alfresco
While the oven does undoubtedly make a difference to the resulting pizza, at the end of the day a hot stone is a hot stone, so I’d recommend choosing one that suits your space, budget and style. Gozney’s arc XL is a stellar all-rounder, but DelVita’s flow dual pizza oven gives it a serious run for its money. What is most essential to the perfect pizza is properly proven dough, as well as a good pizza oven and turning wheel.
As a freelance editor with bylines in Sunday Times Style, The Telegraph, The Mail, Forbes, Livingetc, House Beautiful and, of course, The Standard, I’m an expert on things lifestyle. I also work with some of the biggest brands on the high street to advise and create content, so I understand products, what goes into making them and how they perform. In particular, I’m a foodie and a keen cook – although I’m the first to admit my husband is better and does the more complicated recipes – so I demand a lot from my kitchen kit, which now includes a pizza oven.
