Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Breadman PZ200 Pizza Oven

Customer Review: Almost an "Automatic Pizza Maker" ! WOW!
Summary: 5 Stars

It is made of cast metal, so heats and holds the heat VERY well. The interior is Silverstone. Completely non-stick, and no cleanup. Nothing EVER "burns on".

When it arrived I started a bread dough in my bread machine before I even opened it. I unpacked it, read the instructed, and prepared the inside. When the dough was ready I pressed it out, added a bottled sauce, cheese and toppings.

15 minutes later I had a fabulous pizza! A deep crust that cooked perfectly and crisply, with NO darker spots. I was afraid that my very thick crust would not be cooked all the way through-it was! The crust was so crisp. I LOVE that. I hate soggey crust, as so often happens with "delivery pizza".

My only disapointment was that I did not understand that there is no heating element in the top. It only cooks from the bottom. They tell you to put on the cheese first, then the sauce, then the toppings. This seems strange to me.

We like a lot of onion, pepper, mushroom, etc. on top, and I found the top a little "soupy" to my taste. It is, however, very easy to lift out the whole pizza and pop it under the broiler for a short browning time. I just feel that shouldn't be necessary. They should have put a heating element in the top also. Poor design!

I was also disapointed in the recipe pamphlet (it certainly isn't a book!), but hundreds of excellent pizza etc. recipes are available on so many websites, so this isn't really a big problem.

That said, I do LOVE my pizza oven. I can make a wonderful, tasty meal, with healthy ingredients, and unbelievably quickly. EVERYONE loves pizza, so you are never at a loss to feed unexpected company. The ingredients are staples in my kitchen. Using whole wheat bread flour, reduced fat cheese, and olive oil doesn't make it health food, but certainly is an improvement over "delivery".

I use it very often. You will too. With a bread machine it is almost like having an automatic pizza maker! It could NOT be easier.
