Italforni have been manufacturing commercial pizza ovens for over 30 years, employing craftsmen and the latest technology to supply pizza ovens from single deck to multiple deck in both gas and electric.

 Italforni pizza ovens are manufactured to exacting standards providing a highly reliable pizza oven for a very competitive price.  When you are looking to buy catering equipment such as  a pizza oven you need to make sure that it will give you years of reliable service, that the pizza oven will be easy to maintain and service and that you are able to get spare parts for your pizza oven if required.  It’s a false economy to buy a commercial pizza oven from a non established supplier as you may well find it’s impossible to get any technical support or after sales service if you buy from a less reliable pizza oven supplier.

Ask anyone who has bought an Italforni pizza oven – they won’t buy another brand, they know that this oven is one of the best pizza ovens money can buy.  Not only are they excellent value pizza ovens but they also are very stylish pizza ovens – ideal for open kitchens where the smell of freshly baked pizza comes wafting into the restaurant!  Take a look at the selection on the chefsrange website – http://www.chefsrange.co.uk/cooking-equipment-pizza-ovens-c-363_374.html

What type of commercial pizza oven should I buy ?

First and foremost if you buy anything …make sure it’s an Italian pizza oven (some manufacturers claim Italian design  – but they are made in China!!)

You’ll only get the true taste of pizza by buying one with a refractory stone base, this allows you to cook the pizza directly on the base – some people prefer to use pizza pans but the true pizza maker will always cook directly on the base.

Next you need to think about power – gas or electric?  The electric pizza ovens are the best sellers as they are competitively priced and you don’t have to worry about costly extraction systems.  It’s illegal to install a gas pizza oven without the full extract and safety cut out system, so factor this into your budget !!

If you’re starting off with pizza as a trial you may want to go for a small counter top pizza oven, but the most popular sellers are the twin deck electric ovens which cook 8  x 12” pizzas.
