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!
