Maker of the best consumer pizza ovens, Gozney, is adding two more affordable home ovens to its range: the Arc and Arc XL. These stone-floor gas ovens use new side burners and thick insulation to provide up to 950°F / 500°C of even heat across the entire cooking area, making it easy to cook great pizza at home.
While both take the same disc shape of the popular Gozney Dome, the new Arc and Arc XL are more compact than their expensive siblings, weighing just 47 pounds (21.5 kg) and 58 pounds (26.5 kg). compared to the 128 lb (58 kg) Domo and 105 lb (48 kg) Domo S1.
Arc units eliminate the chimney flue for elegant ventilation that reduces soot and integrate a replaceable stone floor that you can change to extend the life of the product.
Size Matters
Despite being more compact, the Arc still fits a 14-inch pizza, a step up from what the Gozney Roccbox can achieve. The Arc XL has an even larger 16.8 x 20.3-inch (42.7 x 51.7 cm) interior that can accommodate a full 16-inch pizza.
The new Arc ovens come with some new features, such as a built-in digital thermometer that reads the temperature of the stone base and alerts you when the oven is ready to cook, and a knob to control the size of the flame precisely to help you cook better pizza faster. The side flame also allows the front opening to be wider, making it easier for home cooks to rotate a cooking pizza for perfectly uniform leopard spots.
This large format pizza oven connects to an LPG tank and is compact enough to fit in any outdoor space, meaning you can make restaurant-quality pizza no matter where you live.
