This oven is a high performing one, goes to high temperature 450+ for Neapolitan pizza, has a strong external layer to prevent over heating. Only thing is to be careful as sometimes we get flames from the semolina burning. Cannot be left unattended - You must remain next to it at all time. In addition it looks really good. Just be aware that it is heavy to move. Although item arrived late we had plenty of updates from the owner, Chris. Thank you
