If you have been searching for a great outdoor pizza oven, this is it. From the company’s beginnings, I would have never guessed that they would one day market a great, compact pizza oven, but here we are.

Clifford James started as a business idea in 1970 to import North American moccasins to the UK, and the idea was a smash hit. Once the company’s profits climbed, they began to expand into the home and garden territory. Nowadays, they sell comfortable footwear under a separate brand name, and Clifford James sells useful and stylish tools for homes and gardens – including their fantastic pizza oven.

Recently, Clifford James began selling an outdoor oven/barbecue and it’s been a hit ever since. It’s versatile, compact, and makes great pizza.

Who Is It For?

It is perfect for outdoor lovers who are looking for an oven with some flexibility. It is stylish, functional, and can also be used as a barbecue. Not that you would ever get tired of a good homemade pizza, but it’s still nice to have something that can be used in more than one way!

Where Can I Use This Oven?

Since it’s wood-burning (with a charcoal grill below for barbecuing), it should only be used outside. However, this makes it perfect for a lovely day in the yard with friends and family. The oven is stylish and fits right into a garden area or patio.

Personally, I would love to give it a try for a small gathering on a warm day. All the reviews I can find say it makes a lovely addition to the yard and doesn’t take up too much space. It’s a modern take on the pizza oven with traditional (and delicious) results.

What Makes This Oven Special?

This Clifford James model, by all accounts, is a great outdoor oven. It’s compact, multifunctional, and cooks food rather quickly. It’s not enough that it is a fantastic outdoor wood-burning pizza oven – it also features a charcoal barbecue section for when you might be feeling like a change of pace. The stove itself is made of sleek iron and steel, so it is both stylish and sturdy.

It is also quite small, relatively speaking, so it can fit into nearly any outdoor area you choose. All reviews say it is stylish and cooks food evenly throughout, which is always a good thing to note with pizza ovens. No one wants a soggy pizza bottom!

They also sell – separately, of course – a cover for the oven to protect it from the elements when it’s not in use. It is also lightweight and easy to move and features a temperature gauge to monitor your cooking. It has all the tools you need to make sure your pizza comes out in excellent form, including a pizza stone.
