Quick verdict
The Gardeco Pizzaro is a traditional wood-fired pizza oven made from Chimalin AFC, Gardeco's own fireproof clay, with its dedicated trolley stand included (folding side tables, wood storage, 4 lockable wheels). It reaches 300°C+ in around 35 minutes burning roughly 2.5kg of wood, and cooks 2 to 3 pizzas up to 12 inches per firing. Backed by a genuine 5 year warranty against thermal-shock cracking. Assembly is required: the dome and base join with fire cement, and two people are needed for the dome.
At a glance
| Material | Chimalin AFC fireproof clay; steel and wood stand |
| Dimensions | 115 x 66 x 147 cm (on stand) |
| Fuel | Wood |
| Heat up time | 35 minutes, using ~2.5 kg wood |

Design and Materials:
- Traditional dome oven with a front funnel, made from Chimalin AFC, Gardeco's own fireproof clay, in a natural pale clay finish.
- Includes its dedicated trolley stand, in steel and wood, with folding side tables, a wood storage shelf underneath, and 4 lockable wheels.
-
Cooking:
- Reaches an operating temperature of 300°C or more, comparable to a traditional Italian wood-fired oven.
- Takes about 35 minutes to heat up, burning roughly 2.5kg of dry wood pieces or chips. Dry oak chips or other well-seasoned wood work best; avoid treated pallet wood.
- Cooks one pizza at a time, up to 12 inches, though 10 inches is the recommended size. One firing is enough for 2 to 3 pizzas cooked in sequence.
-
Assembly and What to Know:
- The dome and base arrive as separate pieces, joined on-site with fire cement. Two people are needed to handle the dome safely during assembly.
- Backed by a genuine 5 year warranty against cracking from thermal shock, register it with Gardeco after purchase.
- The clay finish will darken and change slightly with use around the mouth of the oven. This is cosmetic and expected.
Buying with confidence
- 5 year warranty against thermal-shock cracking. Chimalin AFC is Gardeco's own fireproof clay, engineered to resist cracking from heat, and it is backed by a genuine 5 year warranty. The warranty covers cracking from thermal shock only, not damage from drops, impacts, being blown over, or glaze crazing under heavy high-heat use, and needs registering with Gardeco directly (a short form emailed to info@gardeco.co.uk).
- 45 day returns. Unused and in its original packaging.
- Damaged on arrival? Check it before you sign, and tell us as soon as you can, ideally within 48 hours, so we can sort a replacement quickly. This does not affect your statutory rights.
- Free UK mainland delivery, arriving within 7 to 10 working days of your order.

Pizzaro questions, answered
Does the Pizzaro come with a stand?
Yes, this listing includes the dedicated trolley stand, in steel and wood, with folding side tables, a wood storage shelf, and 4 lockable wheels.
How hot does the Pizzaro get, and how long does it take to heat up?
It reaches 300°C or more, comparable to a traditional Italian wood-fired oven, taking around 35 minutes to get there while burning roughly 2.5kg of dry wood pieces or chips.
How many pizzas can I cook, and what size?
One pizza at a time, up to 12 inches (10 inches is the recommended size for best results). One firing is enough to cook 2 to 3 pizzas in sequence.
Does the Pizzaro need assembling?
Yes. Unlike Gardeco's clay chimeneas, the dome and base arrive as separate pieces and need joining on-site with fire cement, with two people handling the dome due to its weight. The trolley stand also needs assembling.
What does the 5 year warranty cover?
Cracking caused by thermal shock, the heat of the fire itself, thanks to the Chimalin AFC material. It doesn't cover damage from being dropped, knocked over, blown over by wind, general misuse, or glaze crazing from heavy high-temperature use. You need to register the warranty with Gardeco by emailing info@gardeco.co.uk.
How is the Pizzaro delivered?
Free UK mainland delivery, typically within 7 to 10 working days. The oven and trolley stand ship together as a substantial two-piece product; plan for two people to help unload, assemble and position it.
Who the Pizzaro is for
It is a good fit if:
- Buyers who want a genuine wood-fired pizza oven with a real 5 year warranty against cracking
- Anyone wanting the trolley stand included from the start, with side tables and wood storage built in
- Households who entertain and want to cook 2 to 3 pizzas in one firing
Consider something else if:
- Buyers wanting a no-assembly product; the dome and base need joining with fire cement, and the stand needs building
- Anyone wanting to cook more than one pizza at once; the Pizzaro cooks one at a time
- Smaller budgets; this is a premium, larger investment than a chimenea or fire pit
