Perfect landing: The right product at the right time. The Englishman Tom Gozney is fueling the pizza market with his ideas.

At 26.5 kg, the Arc XL is not a lightweight, the The external dimensions are 525 mm wide, 623 mm deep and 336 mm high. The oven opening is particularly wide at 426 x 95 mm.

Operational
After a heating-up time of around 30 minutes, the oven has reached a temperature of 500 °C. Pizza can now be produced every minute. A 40 cm pizza fits comfortably on the large, 2 cm thick pizza stone. The large oven opening offers plenty of room when turning the pizzas. The digital temperature display is easy to read. Here you can always see the precisely controllable dome temperature. The gas burner on the side creates a rolling flame that moves across the entire dome and ensures even heat distribution. After baking, the oven is easy to clean.
