There’s a specific kind of disappointment that comes with owning a gas or wood pizza oven in Britain: you finally get the fire lit, the stone’s nearly there, and then the heavens open.

Here’s the thing about countertop pizza ovens under £200: the marketing photos all look identical, but the machines behind them are wildly different animals.
