The suggested cooking time was longer than necessary, but other than that, it works perfectly. It's much better than using the oven. We placed the dough directly on the cooking surface and then added the sauce and toppings. It was much easier and we didn't encounter any problems, despite the instructions suggesting to put the pizza together first. We are very pleased with the product, especially considering the great price.

I live in a small apartment with a small countertop oven, so I was surprised when I found an old pizza cooker at a thrift store that cooked my food in just 10 minutes. It eventually broke, and I had to replace it for close to $100. I was happy to find a similar one for a good price at $40. It may not be the same quality, but it cooks just as well.

I absolutely adored making Turkish pizza (lahmacun) with this perfect machine.

I love this pizza cooker. It shaves time off of cooking, and very easy to clean. The only down side I can note is that it can be tricky to get the pizza out. My solution is to use 2 spatulas and that solved that.
You will have to play with it some on cook time. The first time I used it, I had a timer set and stood over the cooker to see how done my pizza was and note the time that had past to get it how I want it. Sure beats having to preheat the oven then cook for 20-25 minutes. I do 15 minutes on mine.
Highly recommend, especially if your family loves pizza like mine does

Works well, although you have to preheat it for about 12 minuets it sure beats preheating the over at 400
Cooked pizza well done in about 15 minuets.

I have had great success cooking Digiorno stuffed crust pepperoni pizza in the freezer for about 27 minutes. The supreme original crust takes about 23 to 26 minutes or more, depending on your preferences for the crust and toppings. This oven is versatile and even comes with a few recipes. I've used it to make Jiffy puff corn bread and plan to make a cookie dessert as well. I recommend lining the bottom with parchment paper for easier handling and cleaning.

The product is good, but the main drawback is the lack of temperature control options. It only has one setting and no ability to choose between low, medium, and high. I've been burned before because of the high temperature.

The wife enjoys the color red. I purchased pizza dough, yeast, and round parchment paper. With these ingredients, she made delicious homemade pizzas that were truly outstanding.

We moved to a new area and had trouble finding a good place for authentic Italian pizza, so we decided to try making it ourselves. The only thing I would suggest is to remember to bake the crust (if you're using homemade dough) for about halfway through before adding the sauce and toppings. Then it will turn out perfect. I had to put it back in the oven for a few minutes to get the crust around the edges done.

Love it

This makes great pizzas. Very simple. What has a learning curve is working with dough. I bought 16 oz from Walmart. I wanted a thin crust, so I used 8 oz. Still learning about temperatures for handling, testing, rising little, things like that. You can buy pre-made 12” crusts, but where’s the fun in that. My first pizza had lots of toppings in it, so I tried 25 minutes…too long. Came out too crispy. Still good, but next time I’ll flow the directions, and go with 20 minutes.

My daughter has made a pizza every night since receiving it. Wish it came with recipes other than pizza.

Perfect for my needs (; Sideways smile

I initially used this item for making fresh pizzas, but I found it difficult to transfer the dough from the pan to the machine and then quickly add the sauce and toppings. As a result, I felt rushed and the dough ended up bunching up, making it tough. Although the taste was fine, I believe using frozen dough would be a better option.

Great product and great value! Cooks frozen pizza perfectly, and half the time as cooking it in a regular oven, and toaster oven!

Simple to use - great results

The product is really good and works effectively. It's easy to clean but a little expensive.

You can do a frozen pizza in 12 minutes and it is fully cooked and you don’t have to use your oven and heat up your house

This heats up very quickly, and is very lightweight for easy storage. I was a little apprehensive at first, but have discovered that my pizzas come out much better than they did in the oven - even the frozen ones. The crust comes out evenly crisp on the bottom, and cooking times are pretty consistent to the oven instructions on the box or in recipes. I really enjoyed using this with the 12-in pizzas that you can pick up at the cooler case at the grocery store. This is definitely worth the buy! The only thing that I would change on it is possibly to add a latch to keep it locked well in storage.

Inside is bigger than similar other products, works well and it's very affordable. On the downside: you need to unplug it to stop it because it doesn't have a timer or a temperature regulator.

Works great

I have made quesadillas a lot since getting this. It makes the cheap pizza look amazing! Best pizza cooker ever! I’m going to buy another so I have a backup and can cook 2 pizzas at one time. Also everyone is getting one for Christmas

We originally purchased this for making pizzas, but ended up using it for a variety of foods and ended up buying a second one. It's a great addition for camping if you have access to power, although it wouldn't work with a battery. We've used it for cooking eggs, sausage, grilled sandwiches, and burgers, and it's now a permanent fixture on our kitchen counter.

I am generally satisfied with this appliance. I purchased it so that I could make pizza and tortillas without using the stove or oven on hot days. I can easily take it to my garage workshop, plug it in, and make dinner without heating up the house, which is especially helpful since we don't have AC. It works well for cooking pizza, with my homemade pie being ready in about 12-14 minutes. The bottom crust comes out great and it's easy to use with parchment paper. The top of the pizza is well-cooked and bubbly, but not brown, so it may need a few minutes under the broiler to achieve that. I also use it for tortillas, but it didn't work well for tacos due to the humidity inside the cooker. The item description is misleading, as it cannot be used as a tortilla press and it's not dishwasher safe despite the description stating otherwise. However, it is easy to clean and use, although it lacks temperature controls. Overall, I think it's a good value for the price, as it preheats quickly and reduces overall cooking time and energy use compared to the oven.

I've been really pleased with my purchase. With temperatures over 100 degrees, I didn't want to be using the oven all the time. So far, I've cooked tuna patties, breaded shrimp, fish, and pancakes with great results. The cooking time was quick and the kitchen didn't get too hot from the oven. I haven't tried pizza yet, but I'm happy with everything else I've cooked.

This product is really convenient, clean, fast, and easy to use! Instead of waiting for the oven to heat up, it can cook your pizza from cold to ready in less than 10 minutes. I've been making my own pizza dough for years, and I really like how this product cooks my pizza with almost no clean up needed. I would give it an A+ rating.

I absolutely love pizza and decided to give making my own a try. I was pleasantly surprised by the high quality and how quickly this pizza maker heats up. It's definitely worth the cost!

I was reluctant to purchase this, but the price convinced me to give it a try. It turned out to be the best decision ever! The pizza cooked quickly and deliciously, even better than in the oven. I also used it to make homemade biscuits and breadsticks, and it didn't heat up the kitchen. It's spacious enough for my family of 4 and heats up fast. My fresh breadsticks and pizza were ready in just 12 minutes and turned out delicious. I highly recommend buying it!

Love it

I think this pizza cooker is fantastic! It cooks both the top and bottom of the pizza perfectly. It usually takes around 15-20 minutes, depending on how crispy you want it. We usually buy and cook the Great Value brand from Walmart, both the thin and rising crust. I only took off one star because it would have been helpful to have a timer on it. Sometimes I forget to set a timer, and then I have to keep checking it. Other than that, it's great - small and easy to store away.

I have had this pizza baking grill for over a year now and I absolutely love it. I originally bought it for camping, but I ended up using it at home instead. It heats up quickly, bakes evenly, and makes deliciously crunchy crust. Cleaning it is a breeze. The only downside is that it doesn't have a timer or temperature adjustment, but I have never burned any food while using it. I highly recommend this grill, especially for RV owners or anyone who wants to avoid heating up their kitchen with a large oven. It can also be used for making omelets, frittatas, and more!

This was my first time using this item when I made quesadillas today. It heated up quickly and cooked the food evenly, melting the cheese perfectly. The initial cleaning and post-use cleaning were quick and easy. I love the bright color and the size is perfect for cooking large quesadillas or a couple of smaller ones at the same time. Just be cautious as the countertop underneath the pizza maker does get quite hot. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and would give it 5 stars.

This pizza maker is great for quickly cooking 12 inch pizzas, with a fast heat up time and effective nonstick surface. However, there are a few drawbacks to consider. Firstly, there is no temperature control so you have to rely on trial and error with cooking time. Additionally, the non-removable pan makes cleaning more difficult, and the short, non-removable power cord can be inconvenient. Despite these issues, the affordable price may make it worth considering compared to more feature-rich options.

This appliance is one of the few that I actually enjoy using regularly. It's incredibly easy to use - the only thing you really need to consider is getting the timing right for whatever you're cooking. I particularly love using it for frozen pizza, which cooks much faster in the appliance compared to my oven, probably because the heat is so concentrated. For example, a thick crust frozen pizza that usually takes 25-30 minutes in the oven was fully cooked in just 20 minutes using the pizza maker. I also read a review suggesting that allowing the pizza to thaw first will result in a crispier crust, but I haven't tried that and have been satisfied with the results anyway. I've also had success using it for frozen breakfast sandwiches, like ham and egg croissants. I butter the tops to prevent burning and then defrost them in the microwave for about 90 seconds before cooking in the pizza maker for 7-8 minutes. The croissants come out flaky and crunchy (though a bit dry, so I dip them in syrup), rather than the chewy and rubbery texture you get from fully microwaving them, and the ham and eggs are fully cooked. Lastly, cleaning this appliance is really easy - I've used it multiple times and haven't needed to clean it yet. Overall, it's more versatile than you'd expect and a great option for a quick and easy meal.

This pizza oven heats up quickly, in about 20 seconds, and is deep enough for a thick crust loaded pizza. We've even been able to add onions cut in strips without them burning or touching the top cooking surface. We've cooked both thin and thick crust pizzas, and both came out crispy on top. Cooking time varies, but the unit heats up to 400 degrees and works well for frozen pizzas. Just make sure to lift up the pizza to check the center for crispiness before removing. It's easy to clean, but keep in mind that it has no on/off switch or temperature control, so it must be unplugged when not in use. Be careful of steam when opening. Overall, I give it 4 stars.

I bought this griddle to use for pizza and it has turned out to be great. I replaced my electric griddle with this and have been using it every day for the past 6 months for all kinds of cooking. It's excellent for cooking steaks, eggs, and bacon without any splattering. The non-stick coating is heavy duty and easy to clean. I usually add water after cooking and then wipe it down with a sponge. I don't use any detergent to clean it, it's that easy. It's also easy to store and I've been able to cook multiple food items at the same time. It cooks faster than a microwave and the left overs are much better. It produces steam, so I make sure to protect my hand and forearm with an oven mitt when raising the lid. To reduce steam, I insert a wooden pencil between the lid and base. Overall, this has been the most versatile and useful kitchen appliance I have ever purchased. I highly recommend it and give it a 5 star rating. My only suggestion would be to buy an on/off wall plug switch to avoid any sparking when plugging it in or removing it from the wall. I hope this review helps my fellow shoppers.

Sound like it’s getting ready to blow up make a popping noise and crackles

I stumbled upon this pizza maker while searching for a quesadilla maker, and I was instantly drawn to it because of its ability to cook a variety of foods. I didn't want another single-use appliance taking up space in my kitchen. Despite my initial skepticism after reading the reviews, I decided to give it a try. I was pleased when it arrived on time and well-packaged. I followed the suggestion to burn off any chemicals before using it, though the manual didn't mention it. I didn't experience any smoking or unpleasant odors. After cleaning and seasoning it as instructed, I successfully made a delicious pepperoni rising crust pizza in just 13 minutes. I had to use an oven mitt to handle the hot sides, and some steam escaped when I opened the lid. I also made a cheese Totino's pizza, which cooked in 8 minutes. The manual includes recipes and estimated cooking times for different foods. I even tried making cinnamon rolls in the maker, which cooked in 8 minutes, although next time I'll remove them at 7 minutes to avoid burning. I'm excited to use this maker to make quesadillas and large cookies with parchment paper. It's easy to clean and store, making pizza night much simpler. The only downside is that it doesn't have a timer, so I had to check the food periodically. I kept a record of the cooking times for future reference and found that setting a timer on the stove and checking after five minutes worked well for achieving the perfect crust. Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase.
