5.0 out of 5 stars Makes great pizzas and very convenient

W.C. · 9 July 2025

Coming from someone that has used an Ooni gas pizza oven, this Tower one gets very very close.I don't think it gets quite as hot as advertised, but hot enough to do very good pizzas.I prefer the 400 degree setting using the cast iron plate, and have had great success.I have also used to bake chicken breasts etc and feel its a good in between from Air Fryer to full size oven for that. As I can fit in 4 full size butterflied chicken breasts in the basket thing.For some reason it seems pretty terrible at "air frying" frozen chips or wedges, and the actual air fryer does a much better job. They were soggy and took a long time, weird.Some of the other reviews said it wasn't straightforward to use, I can't disagree more. Tap Wood Fired oven, it presets to 400 degrees, 15 mins pre-heat and 4 mins cook time. If you need to change any, press the Temp or Time button and turn the dial. Easy.Downsides are:It doesn't appear to have a standby mode, the fan goes constantly so needs turning off at the wall.And the spring on the door is hilariously over powered, how I haven't smashed the glass closing it I don't know.It looks like it could be a pain to clean properly with the exposed lower elements getting in the way. Time will tell.Overall, very happy and feel it's well worth the money.

Best with home made dough then the magic really happensIncredible pizza we kept making my daughter loved it.In a rush? no time to make dough? let a stuffed crust shop pizza *Defrost then cook on the woodfired setting in approx 3 mins! Was delicious! You get bits charred here and there and the cheese becomes proper stringy! Yay! Perfect! You could even blag that you made it fresh lol ! Ensure you pre-heat with pizza stone in the oven before cooking your pizza

2.0 out of 5 stars Airfryer is really not great

Airfryer is really not great. The pizza oven aspect is perfect, cooks them quickly as described, no complaints at all! But like a few others have said the Airfryer method of cooking is pretty useless, it takes at least double how long it should to cook even the simplest of things, I have to buy another Airfryer to actually be able to cook properly. I’m really disappointed, if I could return it now I would.

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing pizza oven, at a great price.

The Tower T17141 Pizza Oven is a very impressive and perfect for knocking out authentic tasting pizzas right in your kitchen, with that 400°C max temp delivering crispy bases and lovely char in just a few minutes, plus it doubles up brilliantly as an air fryer, roaster, grill, and more with those 15 cooking functions and turbo crisper for even results every time. The build feels solid and premium in grey and chrome, the 18L capacity easily fits a 13-inch pizza (or frozen ones no bother), and it heats up reasonably quick with accessories like the pizza stone making a real difference to the finish. That said, I'm only giving it 4 stars because you can't select a truly custom temperature or set a precise timer beyond the pre-programmed modes it's mostly one touch presets for the high-temp stuff, which is handy but a bit limiting if you fancy fine tuning for different doughs or other bits. Still, for the price and the cracking pizzas it churns out, it's dead good value and a fun addition to the kitchen chuffed overall, just wish it had a bit more manual control.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cooks the best pizzas

This cooks the best pizzas. It takes about 15 minutes to heat up the 340, but once at temperature, fresh pizza base pizzas only take 4 minutes to cook and they taste wonderful! For Father’s Day, rather than a BBQ, we had a build your own pizza party and everyone loved them, so much so, both my son and grandson want pizza for their birthdays and my daughter is also looking to buy one.The oven has lots of settings including airfryer. I do most of my cooking in an airfryer, and while this cooks nicely, it’s doesn’t cook as you’d expect an airfryer to. Even if pre-heated, I find you need to go by the normal oven temperature and times, rather than airfryer temperature and times. But then it is primarily sold as a pizza oven and it does that brilliantly.The oven can be stored standing up/vertically, which is very handy if you’re limited for space. As others have said, the door does snap shut quite violently, so you need to keep hold of the handle when closing it.
