I had my doubts, boy was I wrong.

I've been yearning for my own food-fired pizza oven for a while now. I have grandiose plans to build my own brick pizza oven once I own my own place, but in the meantime this is an amazing alternative.

Off the bat -- if you're not cooking your pizza at 900+ degrees, you're doing it wrong. Lot's of pizza ovens out there that claim they cook the best, authentic pizza. Once you read the specifications, most of them don't even get close to 900 degrees, and the ones that do cost $700+.

In comes the Nipoli. I'll admit, it was an impulse buy. I was taking a risk on buying yet another crappy pizza maker that makes sub-par pizza that is soft and doughy. How can just a couple of chunks of wood and pellets get this thing up to the proper cooking point?

I unboxed it, filled it with a couple scoops of pellets and laid some wood chunks on top. After about 20 minutes warming up, I took out my trust infrared thermometer (highly recommended as you want to make sure you're putting your pizza in at the correct temp) and to my surprise, it read 940 degrees! I was absolutely elated.

Threw in my first pizza, waited about 20-30 seconds and rotated. Waited another 20 seconds and the pizza was done. It made the perfect Neapolitan pizza. I was absolutely blown away that I made this pizza. The crust was perfectly crunchy with a soft, airy interior. I attached a picture of said pizza before it was completely engulfed in 20 seconds by my roommates and I.

So if you want a wood fired pizza oven that gets up to the required temperature needed to make yourself the perfect professional pizza, look no further.

Fantastic backyard pizza oven!
by Danielle (5 out of 5 stars)

I love pizza and have wanted a big, outdoor wood fired pizza oven but funds and space make it impractical to own one. I recently began cooking in the backyard with an Ooni 3 pizza oven. While it produced decent pizzas, I did not like the tall chimney which got in the way and the limit of only using pellets. The pellet chamber was very small managing the fire and making pizzas was hectic. Enter the Napoli Wood Fire and Gas Outdoor Pizza Oven!

I sold the Ooni and took a chance on the Napoli and I am glad I did! I love that the fuel tray is quite large so I don't constantly need to add fuel. I also like that I can burn pellets, charcoals, wood chinks, etc. I have found wood chunks to be my favorite and to use a small, USB powered fan to blow into the fuel chamber to give a hotter burn. The oven is fairly light and easy to transport if needed (we have taken it camping). Build quality is nice and sturdy. Pizza parties are great with the Napoli, we cook, eat, and visit and I am not worried about fire management like with the Ooni.

I start the oven by soaking a few cotton balls in Isopropyl alcohol and then laying a few small wood chunks on top of them and light them. Give the oven about 15 minutes to preheat (I like to cook at around 700-800*F) and then I am ready for cooking. I usually put a small wood chunk on after each pizza which will then light, burn hot and then I am ready to cook the next one. Be sure to use hard wood like mesquite, fruits woods, and hickory - don't use pine and other soft wood or it will taste bad.

If you are looking for a portable, easy to use pizza oven, this is it. Find the fuel you like to use and start cooking!

Great, Versatile Pizza Oven!!
by Amazon Customer (5 out of 5 stars)

I sold my Uuni 3 to get the Napoli Pizza Oven and I'm extremely happy. The Uuni 3 was limited to pellets only and what I love about the Napoli Oven is that I can use charcoal, pellets or pieces of natural wood/chunks. I'm also very impressed with the build quality of this oven and have made some great tasting wood fired pizzas.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Easy to use, great quality, outdoor pizza oven that cooks pizzas to perfection. I like that you can use charcoal or wood/pellets. We also use the oven for a lot more than just pizzas, super fun to use. I really like the look of it as well, sharp design and extremely portable. A great buy - I would highly recommend! We enjoy cooking pizzas with the entire family! And the kids love it!

Great oven, better company!!!
by CM (5 out of 5 stars)

As with anything it's up to the end user to really learn how to use it, but all in all my first pizza out of this thing was amazing. The key is balancing out flame size/soot production and make sure you get the stone hot enough to get it right. BUY AN INFRARED THERMOMETER!!! You absolutely want to know temps throughout the stone and there is no alternative to an infrared thermometer so it's a must have. Plus their customer service is top notch. I had one small issue and they got back to me and handled immediately. Great oven, better company.

I got this a few weeks ago. Used it a couple of times now for wings, steak, shrimp, and of course pizza. My kids love it too. Fun and easy to use. Most importantly cooks wonderfully and is priced right. Glad I didn't spend more for something else.

Great pizza oven but the meat was incredible
by Amazon Customer (5 out of 5 stars)
June 9, 2019

Upon receiving the product, I of course had to break int in with Pizza. Once the oven got hot enough the pizzas were incredible. The stone cooked the pizza evenly and the crust was perfect. We had a pizza party on a warm day, and instead of heating the whole house up this fit perfectly in a small space on the patio and we never had to turn the oven on. The next day i couldn't wait to try a steak in this oven as the online video shows meats and veggie can be cooked as well. My steak came out perfect, i actually felt the hot stone kept the juices in and the exterior was cooked perfectly. It will be tough for me to fire up my grill now for meats when this is just as fast and the meat was just as juicy and tender. I recommend buying this product unless you like doing dirty dishes, as it leaves no mess!

Absolutely love this oven. Have owned uuni pro and others but this one is the most sturdy. Was having issues with the stone and the company quickly sent me a new one and expedited shipping. Can't say enough good things and will be gifting this to friends and relatives!

Steep learning curve, no one fuel seems to work with the design well.
by Grumpy Dad (3 out of 5 stars)

I'm going to give an honest review in the hopes that I can help others with their journey of obtaining an excellent pizza at home or , on the go (camping).

If you are planning to just hook this up and toss in a pizza , and expect to get good or excellent results you will not be happy. This is not a on/off appliance, there are nuances to using this that must be learned and even then you may think to yourself as I did, that this just isn't worth the effort but your experience may vary.

Using wood, I was never able to get the oven to the proper temperatures to cook a pizza to the level as advertised, 90 seconds or so. The back of the stone reached about 400 degrees and the middle was around 300. I tried various pieces of oak that many swear by using for wood fired or smokers. Everything from small pieces to larger chunks. Eventually the flame just goes out and it sits there smoldering. I added a fan to aid with getting flames moving along, eventually using a torch every so often to keep the flames rolling over the top of the pizza stone. But in the end I just couldn't get a nice cook on a pizza. This may work for a pizza shop style dough / thickness and a longer cook but then you could easily do the same in your home oven if your oven goes to say 500+ degrees and a $30 pizza stone without the risk of burning the back of the pizza.

Brings me to my next point, the flames are too close to the back of the stone. To fit a round pizza in the oven , of 10-12" in size, you will be within an inch or two of the flames so turning the pizza OFTEN is a REQUIREMENT else you WILL have an inedible pizza.

I then tried to use the gas attachment. As others have pointed out, this is much easier to use however I'm still not getting good pizza results. Avoiding burning the pizza in the back is very hard. I find that turning the pizza four or more times will yield better results. If you think you only need to turn it once during the cook, that will be a mistake. The issue I have is, while the stone is very hot when I place the pizza in the oven, it quickly cools and doesn't recover during the cook, so now your toppings are burning but your crust just isn't there. So while you may pull your pizza out when you start to see that nice char here and there on the crust if you turned it no less than four times, the bottom of the pizza is seemingly still under cooked and definitely far from crispy. Ive tried two different dough recipes, one that they advertise on their website and one that Ive used prior which is a lower moisture dough meant for a crispy almost flat bread type crisp, no joy.

Overall the pizza isn't bad, and its a fun experience with the kids to help put the sauce on the pizza ,a thin layer of topping etc but this is not something a kid could cook as it requires an ensemble of tools to grab the pizza in the tiny opening or , pulling the pizza out spinning it and putting it back in constantly. Kinda fun but also rather frustrating when you pull a pizza out that looks great only to see the one edge burned horribly. And trust me, you can go from a good cook on your pizza to horribly burnt in a matter of a few seconds, it's that finicky.

But that's not that far off from a 'real' wood fired pizza oven. Get too close to the source of heat and you will burn it, unfortunately with this oven you are SO close to the source of heat, especially with the propane options, that you have to be a wizard to avoid the burns. In a wood fired oven you learn where to put the items you are baking, in this oven you don't really have that option unless you cook 6" pizzas. Again, all of this effort to finally get a non burnt pizza out of the oven to feel rather meh about the bottom of the crust.

I think the biggest issue with this and many sub compact pizza ovens is getting the stone heated and keeping the temps there. When they rely only on heat coming over the top of the pizza for the stone to be heated, when the pizza lands on the stone that stone is losing heat rapidly and wont recover until the pizza is removed. Whereas with a real wood fired pizza your source of heat is actually on the stones themselves and, you aren't covering the majority of the stone with pizza only a small portion.

In total with all of the accessories I purchased for this oven (the oven, the propane burner, the smaller pizza peel, the wood) I'm over $400. During one attempt to make a pizza I slide the pizza 1" too far toward the back and was touching the propane burner. Attempts to pull it out shoved the pizza more so over the burner resulting in a disaster. There needs to be a little guard/lip there. When I emailed their support, they suggest I buy yet another accessory that allows me to burn wood WITH the propane at the same time, and that one has a lip guard. I'm not spending more money on something that in my opinion should be there in the first place. While I really appreciate the response Ive received from their support with my questions, I don't appreciate having to spend more money to get what was advertised.

So in short, wood burning as advertised fell wildly short for me.

Propane cooks the pizza top ok, but it takes practice to land that pizza in the oven just right and CONSTANT turning to avoid burning it, then the end result is just an OK crust.

Perfect little pizza oven

This is just what I have been looking for, a versatile portable wood burning pizza oven. It's very well designed and made, and at an affordable price. Have used with pellets so far but buying the gas burner accessory for added convenience. Thoroughly recommend. These guys have produced a winner.
