ilFornino wood-fired pizza ovens are the most popular portable backyard oven in the United States. We are proud to say our customers love us and this reflects in the testimonials and reviews below.
I thought to build a traditional brick oven for my backyard, but my friend suggested me to check his oven that he recently bought. I was impressed with the oven design. We made some pizza. The taste was awesome... After checking my friend's oven, I dropped the idea of building an oven. I ordered ilFornio's Elite Chef Edition Wood Fired Pizza Oven and I like Its traditional Pompeii dome. Since 2 months, I have been using this oven and am completely satisfied. I would like to give 5 stars to this oven.
Great pizza ovens. Offers all the needed accessories too. They also have a nice academy to show people how to use their products. Nice owners who stand behind their products. Highly recommended

I was looking for a good quality pizza oven and did lots of searches for that. Then I checked ilFornino Professional Series wood fired oven and read all of the reviews both good and bad before purchasing that oven. I've now had the oven for a few months and let me tell you this is a 5-star product especially if you take the time to read how to heat the oven with the correct fire location. Thank you for a great product.

I have been using F-Series mini professional for three months. Well build and easy to use. I have cooked in it many times. After a little practice, I'm able to bake awesome pizzas. It also works well for roasting purposes. Loved it.....
ilFornino wood fired oven really helps cook the pizza evenly at high heat. It was super easy to set up and I'm already enjoying delicious, easy and healthy pizza with my family. Highly Recommend!

I rarely ever write a review and felt compelled to write this one. I bought f series mini wood fired pizza oven from ilfornino because of the reviews here. I watched several videos as well.Just finished making and eating our first pizzas. Same crust we always make. It was nice and crispy and tasted better than ever. This was the best pizza I have ever made!

I was setting out to build a traditional brick and mortar oven for my backyard, but a buddy told me he just ordered one of these ovens. I thought about it and decided to buy one also instead of building something which would take me forever to complete.It arrived last week, and We cooked our first pizzas in the ilFornino oven last night! It did a much better job than I expected for my first attempt.

When I moved to Florida from New York, I discovered that my passion for BBQ would need to contend with having my BBQ unit rust every two years due to the hot, humid climate. So I began to research the possibility of achieving similar results and extending to making great pizza with a small wood fired pizza oven. There were so many considerations. Buy, build, semi-build and price range to name a few. I narrowed down my choice to a metal, preferably stainless steel, self-contained, portable unit that could be wheeled into position in my pool area. After looking at a host of manufacturers, I came upon ilFornino and researched their website to select the best unit that would fit my lifestyle and needs. The specifications were outstanding. Their website contained much needed information, since I was a novice at wood fired ovens. Blogs, recipes and instructional videos not only helped me choose my unit, but that coupled with excellent support helped me hone my skills to produce impressive results. My ifFonino Mini-Pro has been operational for several years, and is as good as the day I first received it. Every time I light it up, I know that I will be able to achieve consistent results.I highly recommend these ovens, as they pride themselves in providing a great quality product at an affordable price range. They have a host of ovens to suit just about everyone's needs. It has been a welcome addition to our home.

The preheating of the ilFornino basic wood fired pizza oven is quick. It took only 30 minutes. In that meantime, I prepared my pizzas with toppings so that it can be baked and served quickly. My friends loved the taste of the pizza. Now they usually say me to organize a party at my house.

I have bought an oven from Ilfornino two year ago, now I have made my mind to buy a professional series oven. The basic oven works perfectly. I have baked many recipes in it from pizzas to cooking meat in it. The flavors of the wood fired oven are so good.
The Delivery time of Ilfornino is on time as they said they will deliver the Wood Fired Pizza Oven in 3 to 4 business days. It arrived at my place on the third day. I was very excited to cook into the oven. The pizza came out perfectly in 2 minutes and my family loved it. Ilfornino oven brings more happiness to our weekends with nutritious and smoky flavored pizza.
Amazing food and service!Eddie, our server is the best!!!
Outstanding.... Been looking (and saving) for a wood fired outdoor oven for a couple of years. All were too deep for my pockets. I came across ilFornino and realized this is higher quality and lower cost than most out there. Frankly, I have not come across a high quality oven. I paid Chris a visit, he and his staff explained the ins and outs of the ovens. I selected the Professional Series. First and foremost, ilFornino is about the customer. I was treated as if I was their first and only customer. After making the oven and accessory selection I brought it home and fired it up. Amazing. User tip - make sure the wood is VERY dry (season) so you can obtain the high temps. The second fire was way better than the first, but every piece of food I pulled out tasted great. The oven is build like a brick house. All stainless. Every nut, bolt, washer, screw....stainless. I cannot say enough great things about the quality of the product as well as the company. Thanks!

Been searching for a pizza/wood burning oven for entertaining for some time. I know there are lots to choose from and the prices range varies. When I came across this ilFornino's wood fired pizza oven with positive reviews and price it made my list to look at again. Wow, what can i say, got it last week and fired it up over the weekend for some friends. I made three types of pizza's side order of sausages and meatballs, they all came our fantastic. Yes, need to work on my technique a little, but the options are endless. Ok now more about the oven, it is built like a tank, and you will be impressed.

Nothing beats Ilfornino. First let's talk about Chris and his brother. You could find a better guy than these two. Great customer service and very friendly. Now the oven, when I first came in the showroom and saw it, WOW, looks so much bigger in person. Product is nicely made, it comes with everything you would need to get started. If your near Valley Cottage, NY, I suggest to pay these guys a visit you won't be sorry.
I bought my Ilfornino Mini F Series Pro a few years ago. I was impressed with the quality,.performance and customer service. Today it performs just like the day I first fired up. I would highly recommend this or other models that Ilfornino offers.
I was walking down Arthur Avenue in the Bronx on a foodie tour I was giving and standing outside Cerini Coffee and Gifts was a Pizza Oven. All stainless steel and shiny on wheels with one big stone inside. I remembered that last year my friend Santi bought a smaller version of the one we were looking at. The pizzas that came out of his Il Fornino were stunning and delish. Fast forward to a few days later when my dear friend told me to look up this Pizza Oven that he wanted to get for his wife for their anniversary. I looked it up and it was an Il Fornino. The bigger version "Mini Professional". I told him "Good Choice!" as they say at Rao's on Mt Pleasant Ave. He had it delivered and that day we made pizzas and again they were stunning with store-bought dough but our great ingredients. Fast forward to my birthday and my very significant other says "Let's go for a ride but get John's Yukon truck." We get the truck and guess what? We are on our way to Valley Cottage to Il Fornino because she has purchased the same exact one that we salivated over that our friend had gotten. Chris, the owner, and brother in law of Cerini Coffee and Gifts was terrific. You enter and get the pre-requisite expresso and while you are buzzing around from the caffeine you get a tour of the pizza oven you just bought. Fire starting instructions and dough recipe in hand, we schlepped our very own brand new pizza oven home and assembled it with our friend Joel and his Dad. The next day we started making real wood-fired pizza in our backyard. We made 4 pizzas. Number one we burnt to a sort of crisp, number two was messy, number three was far better and number four was PERFECT. We have used our new oven often and once you get the hang of it and watch enough videos on you Youtube you don't ever have to go out for pizza again. The whole staff at il Fornino was gracious and helpful and I would recommend them and this oven hands down. Tonight we are making a White Clam Pie from New Haven, CT.
The oven itself is decent, but Ilfornino has the most terrible customer service EVER. I spent a long time sending the owner an email after he basically told me I did not know how to cook a pizza. RUDE considering I have been cooking pizzas for well over a decade in wood fired ovens. I actually wanted to make purchases and explained how my pizza oven stones had shifted and are no longer level. I wanted to buy a new pizza peel and potentially buy new stones to replace the ones that are uneven and he literally recommended driving my oven to NEW YORK from MAINE! What a joke. Don't expect help from them if you have issues after purchasing. They will tell you to send an email and never respond. This is the second email I have inquired with photos asking to purchase a pizza peel. NO response. Now I am buying stones from someone willing to ship them and also having a local welder make me quality pizza peels. Waste of my time.
Have Had my Ilfornino Roma Grande for 3 weeks now, Its awesome. We love it. Chris And Jimmy were great to deal with, and I drove them nuts. They even answered my texts on a sunday when I needed advice. Highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed.
We just picked up our oven a few days ago and with a little trial and error I was able to make some of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. Il Fornino had my oven ready for pickup in a few days and their customer service is awesome. The pictures say it all. So amazing. If your debating this purchase, stop!
Stopped by the showroom to look at the ovens before i ordered. Chris took his time showing me everything they have and discussing which oven would be best for my application.
The most awesome oven and customer service around.
I recommend on how well they’re built. The stone floor is magnificent. It holds the heat evenly for a long time.Cool design.Very versatile.
An amazing oven that goes so far beyond just being a Pizza oven. The people at Il Fornino are amazing Chris and his staff took the time to make this an incredible purchasing experience. We have used the oven throughout the winter and can’t wait for Pizza parties all spring and summer long.
il fornino Is the best in the America
I love my IL fornino mini professional oven !! It is absolutely the best !! Couldn’t be happier and I highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys wood fired pizza!!
Excellent customer service and a top notch product
pick up my oven two weeks ago, finally got a chance to play with it. I love it after three practice runs, which was a total of 1 hour. bang the perfect pizza. Will be practicing again today. the service was fantastic from first email too pick up. I had been researching for a few months and so glad I chose the professional series. Highly recommend the Ilfornio
Easy to use, even temps, holds heat with little fire. Bakes good bread too. Good reliable company to buy from. I live in Hawaii and it arrived ahead of schedule and no damage to the oven after 5000 miles of truck , ship and flatbed delivery. It even Has removable handles for moving it. 5 star rating from me.Aloha, Ron
