Looks perfect size and form factor for RVs and other camping choices.
Yes, I really enjoyed this oven!
Gotta say. Looks great! I think temps in 700’s are perfect. 900 can be rough at times. Impressed. I have a roccbox but I’d get that
Yeah, I had thought I would just test it out and make a video and then give this pizza oven away after using it but now I think I’m gonna have to keep it
Can someone 3d print a cover ? might help heat up a shit ton quicker, no?
This oven heats up pretty quick, and you really don't want a stone heating up quick or it will crack.
Apparently Solo has a stock problem. Will take over a month to get it
Looks like amazon has inventory amzn.to/3K055F5
Great video as always Matt . Love the different camera angles 🍕🔥 .
Appreciate it! Yeah something new, glad you liked it!!!
@@HarplandProductions 👍👍👍
I agree, terrific to see you back, and the camera angles add to the video.
Love this oven🥰🙏💕 Does the bake come out as good as the roccbox? I use a 52” table makes it easy to see the flame in the bake. I am only 5’7”
Yes it does! If you were going to be using it for a food truck or making 10 pizza's back to back then the roccbox would be better because it has more insulation and a better stone but the Solo is great for just making a few pizzas and it's nice looking and well built.
Looks like average size thin stone (not to good) Now for another important question . . . . ANY INSULATION in the roof and sides❓ Bottom ❓ if not it's just like any other Cheap Pizza oven but Higher in Price 😅😂
Like most of them, You get what you pay for👍🏻
Hey Tony, thank you so much for watching and reaching out. The solo oven is kind of a middle of the road quality. It is definitely much better than the halo or Blackstone ovens and I would say it’s probably right up there with ooni in terms of build quality, although ooni has a slightly nicer burner, but the solo one is made of nicer steel and has a much better ignition system in the front of the oven. it’s extremely well insulated. You can lay it right on it wood table without any issues even when it gets to 1000°F in the top is well insulated. You are correct, though the stone is very thin and not very good. In my opinion, Gozney and Pizza party ovens are the best for the money under $1000
But tell the people, be honest "it doesn't have any insulation and thin stone"
Meaning they could do the same on a Propane Barbecue Grill.
@@Tony13754 doesn’t have as much insulation as a Gozney or Pizza party, but it has about the same amount as ooni ovens so it’s still gonna give you a better result than using your home oven or a gas grill with a stone
Hi, besides the size. Is this as good as the Koda? Solo has a great package sale. I would have to spend much more to get all of those things wirh the koda. Thanks in advance
I would rank this solo oven above Ooni in terms of overall build quality! The Koda is a bit more portable but not nearly as nice as the Solo! So if you’re fine, just making traditional 12 inch Neapolitan pizzas and don’t need the 16 inch size for New York style. I would recommend the solo every time.
@@HarplandProductions Thank you so much very much appreciated
What type of mozzarella do you use on your Neapolitan pizzas?
I have found Bel Gioioso it’s one of the better fresh mozzarella that’s readily available in most places amzn.to/3SsWP4l
What is your favorite at home pizza oven
That is a very tough question, it really comes down to what type of pizza you are going to be making, the style (Look) you like best, Size and portability, and Budget. The best overall oven for making Neapolitan PIzza are the Pizza Party Ovens with the natural Biscotta stones, they are amazing but they are not the most finished style of ovens, the Dome is the nicest looking oven for me and for a budget / portable oven the new solo stove is extremely well built and cooks great pizza and very easy to move and pack away if needed. If you opt for a pizza party, make sure you use my discount code to save yourself some $ (Harpland10) Love my Ardore with the copper color, it's a great small oven and amazing for cooking pizza
I like that big wooden pizza tray work station
Do you have a preference between the Pi Prime and the Roccbox?
Hello Jonathan, thank you very much for watching and reaching out to me. They are both really nice ovens, it's going to come down to how your planing on using it and your person style preference. If you are going to be really getting into pizza big time and or want to take the oven with you for pop ups, camping, friends house, etc. then the Roccbox is much more commercial grade and the legs fold up and you pack it up and with the case you can carry it (though it is heavy at around 50lbs) The Solo Pi Prime, is about half the weight and has the nice stainless look, but in terms of pizza cooking is more comparable to the ooni ovens, with a thinner stone and a bit less insulations, etc. My take is that if you just want to mess around at the house making pizza once in a while then the Solo oven is a great starter oven, if you want to step it up a bit then the Roccbox is a great option.
Thanks for the response. I ended up buying a Pi Prime bundle. It was on sale and couldn't pass up the deal. I can't wait to start making pizza with it. My family can't wait either. :)
@@jonathanneal7120 best of luck, i think you are going to love it!
When you order and pay directly, they send a confirmation and then they tell you it’s at least a month wait, that’s a problem
On Amazon you can buy it today and it will be delivered by Tuesday next week. a.co/d/huBJHao
It is also now in Costco brick & mortar stores, not just their website.
Which would you choose this or the kiln and ty
Thank you so much for watching and reaching out to me. At the end of the day all of the ovens i review make great pizza. I only post videos of the ones that make the cut in terms of quality. The Gozney Dome is still one of my favorite ones but it's big and much heavier. For overall ease of use the Solo Pi is a solid oven and a lot less to go wrong. I would also check out the Pizza Party ovens, they make some of the best pizza out there and they have smaller ones that are reasonably priced. ua-cam.com/video/iH2iLTuKoHo/v-deo.htmlsi=LACn9iFsaut1LVLq
Where did you get that board you’re using to make the pizza on?
Thanks for watching! I made that one but i would recommend these 2.
Wooden Dough Boards
Smaller / Less $ one

Larger more $ one

Appreciate that! Nice work on the board, and Great video!
Hey Chef; where’d you get that awesome pastry board?
First off, thanks so much for watching, second I made that dough board.
What pizza peel did you use on the Solo Pi Prime?
In this video I was using the long handle Gozney Dome peel! It’s one of my favorite launch / placement peels!
Im really torn. Looking to upgrade from an "Amazon special" oven i got earlier this year. What oven would you uou get in the $1000 or less range. I love the features of the ardore oven but doesnt look as nice as the roccbox or pi prime. Ooni ovens are not attractive to me at all 😂. Have you seen the Everdure kiln ovens??
Pizza Party Emozione with the Biscotto stone. I love mine. Tons of room. Impressive oven. Had mine for 6 months. Not ONE complaint. Good luck.
Hello Jeffrey, first off, thank you very much for watching and taking the time to reach out to me! Second, this is a great problem to have, there are a lot of great ovens out there and for $1,000 i know you will find the perfect one for you! At the end of the day it really depends on a few key things. 1. What type of pizza are you most likely to be making the majority of the time? For just making Neapolitan i have found that the Ardore and Emozione with the Biscotto stone make the best pizzas but they are not the most polished built or looking ovens but make great pizza for a great price. The emozione is also a great size, Use my discount code, "Harpland10" to save you some $ if you go that route 2. Are you wanting to use wood or just gas, the idea of wood fired is nice but the reality is that with all of these small ovens using wood is kinda of a pain to use and really just isn't worth the hassle, gas makes just as good of pizza and they only cook for 60 seconds and the kiln dried wood doesn't smoke so there isn't actually any smoke flavor when using wood :) so long story short, i would go gas 100% 3. Space and mobility, are you setting this up in one spot, do you need something you can easily move and store away for the winter or pack up and take with you places, etc. and last, The roccbox is the most portable one but not the lightest (50 lbs), the Solo Pi is the lightest but not as easy to carry around. 4. what style do you like best, The Emozione is going to be the best / big oven in that price range but if you just want a smaller one I think the Ardore or Solo would be great ovens for you! I have reached out to Everdure and hopefully will be getting a Kiln to test out, It looks like a nice style but i am not seeing it as the best option for serious Neapolitan pizza making but that will have to wait until i get a chance to use one.
@@HarplandProductions wow thanks for the in depth response! Your passion for cooking and making pizzas made me a follower. Looking forward to trying your Biga dough recipe! Hopefully you get a Kiln oven to test. There are virtually NO reviews in that oven. It does look fancy though 😂
@@HarplandProductions I just put an order in for the Zio Ciro nano oven. It's pricey to get it shipped from Canada but it is beautiful.
Send me one!!!😊😊😊
😎👍🏼🔥🍕
Just bought one today...thanx for content!
Hope you enjoy it!😎👍🏼🔥🍕
I’m in the market for a pizza oven and I think I’m down to the Pi Prime or the Roccbox. What do you think?
I’m also interested in the Blackstone with the turntable, but that’s a good bit more money.
Thanks for reaching out, i just answered this in a previous comment but i will share it with you also. Hello Jonathan, thank you very much for watching and reaching out to me. They are both really nice ovens, it's going to come down to how your planing on using it and your person style preference. If you are going to be really getting into pizza big time and or want to take the oven with you for pop ups, camping, friends house, etc. then the Roccbox is much more commercial grade and the legs fold up and you pack it up and with the case you can carry it (though it is heavy at around 50lbs) The Solo Pi Prime, is about half the weight and has the nice stainless look, but in terms of pizza cooking is more comparable to the ooni ovens, with a thinner stone and a bit less insulations, etc. My take is that if you just want to mess around at the house making pizza once in a while then the Solo oven is a great starter oven, if you want to step it up a bit then the Roccbox is a great option. Regarding the blackstone, i am not a big fan of the brand, they are more big box store quality and are not built to last in my opinion and for sure the pizza add on isn't worth getting at all, much better just getting a gas grill griddle amzn.to/3ZKUwg6, not a lot of grill brands sell their own version that yo can just take the grates out and put in a flat top griddle and do the same if not better than the blackstone. Also if you want to make Neapolitan the blackstone will not get hot enough. Hope this helps
Whats the biggest size pizza it could handle?
This oven is designed for a standard 12” pizza 👍🏼🍕😎🔥
