I've tested a lot of different pizza ovens and accessories over the years, but a rotating stone was a first for me. While there are rotating pizza ovens on the market, Ooni's newly-launched Rotating Pizza Oven Stone is the first to feature hands-free control, allowing you to start and pause rotation with a simple wave of a hand or pizza peel. It fully eliminates the need for manual turning while ensuring even heat distribution for a perfect bake. Needless to say, I was keen to test it out for myself to see how it compared.
When you think of pizza ovens, Ooni is likely the first brand that comes to mind. Known for high-quality, design-led ovens, it launched the first-ever portable pizza oven in 2012, opening the door to a whole new era of outdoor entertaining. So I didn't doubt that the rotating stone would be as premium and polished as its other designs. "We identified a market crowded with products that fall short on reliability and engineered a solution that is as elegant as it is durable," explains Kristian Tapaninaho, founder of Ooni.
