Gasmate Pizza Oven
Verified20 reviews
Run-away form Gas mate Pizza ovens – Not sure what they sold us but definitely its not a pizza oven. Oven doesn't reach required operating temperatures, turns off after 30 min of use and want spark again till it cools down; and on top of that no support form customer service and Joe BBQ the retailer , which keep referring us back to gas mate and not willing to help or sort out the… Read more
problem, all they did was blame gas mate and suggest to lodge a complain with fair trading. Big disappointment and waste of money.
Chasing parts – Love the pizza oven but it’s showing its age. The control valve sticks when changing from ignite to heat. Are There replacements available please.
I don't understand the bad reviews - we've had great results from ours pizza oven – This is an outdoor pizza oven - instructions state not to use it indoors. Ours lives outside on the side of the house (out of direct sunlight), on a steel stand with the original plastic cover still intact. There is some surface rust on the stand. But it's still pumping out pizzas (we just had 5 pizzas this afternoon as impromptu guest… Read more
entertainment). I'm only on this site as I am looking for a replacement light bulb. Ideally pizza's are cooked (zapped) at high temps. I had trouble getting this oven above 200C until I realised the door wasn't sealing properly. Once I adjusted the door it easily warms to 260+C and cooks 2 pizzas in 5-10min depending on the topping. Just make sure you preheat before putting the pizza's in. Add wood chips to the hanging basket for an authentic wood fired pizza taste (we prefer the flavour of cherry wood chips over others we have tried). Love it.
Poor Quality components. Gas valve fails after one season! – Great for the first 12 months. Then the gas valve fails and you cannot get the unit to stay alight. I will be sending back to Bunnings for a refund. Not happy. Should last much longer than the warranty period. As an engineer, I find this poor quality. Not sure if i will ever buy Gasmate again. Cheap. UPDATE. please read comments as there is a fix to this. Show details

Not a pizza oven. Terrible design for cooking pizza – We bought this oven on the strength of a recommendation on Choice- but quickly learned that we had made a big mistake. There’s nothing better than a well cooked pizza - but this oven just isn’t up to the job. Firstly it doesn’t get hot enough and has no advantage to just cooking a pizza in a regular oven. A pizza oven should be able to cook a… Read more
pizza in 2-3 minutes by radiating heat from the top and the bottom. The result is well caramelised toppings, a crispy base and a puffy rim with leopard spotting. To cook a pizza in this oven you need to cook the pizza on a tray (not provided) for 10 minutes then put it on the pizza stone for “a few seconds” according to the manufacturer. The result is about the same quality you will get from your local Dominos. Seriously?? Why bother? You may as well cook it in your kitchen oven as this oven is basically a simple oven for outside use. It’s ok if you want to cook regular food or use it for keeping things warm but should not be marketed as a pizza oven. We cut our losses and replaced with a Gozney which can actually cook real pizza!!
Gasmate pizza oven won’t heat – My Gasmate pizza oven won’t heat past 120. Anyone know how I can get it hotter? I have replaced the gas guage but can’t seem to improve the performance. Any ideas? Show details
Terrible gift!! – We were gifted this from a supplier for great support but unfortunately this pizza oven is horrendous!! Difficult to regulate temp, poor cheap build& poor service from company as we didn’t purchase it from Gasmate!! Finally cut our loss today!!
Gas valve failure - parts cost make replacement only option – We have a Gasmate Pizza oven in our apartment building in Brisbane. It is a little over two years old (warranty 1 year) and has been plagued with problems since new. The most recent is a gas valve failure in the unit which means it can't be lit. The replacement part and labour to fit it cost more than the oven. We will not be replacing the oven with a Gasmate! Show details
Excellent oven – This is great outside oven for BBQ areas. It is good for cooking pizzas, roasts and any type of dish that may be somewhat odourous (I.e. garlic, onion and curry dishes) where you don't want the whole house reeking. Does need some practice in temperature adjustment as control is rudimentary but does have temperature gauge in door. Show details
What a great pizza oven – We got given to us a brand new Pizza oven and omg it is so awsum perfect pizzas just like the resteraunts I recomend it to everyone whom luv yummy pizzas Show details
Awesome pizza oven – Picked one up on Ebay for $250 brand new, model PO104GM. Easy to assemble, the thermometer is accurate, it can hold high temperatures for hours on end. An addition of a smoke box for wood chips is a good idea for that wood-fired taste. Downsides, if you really count it as that, it doesn't cook 3 pizzas at one time, it cooks 2. If there was a 3rd… Read more
pizza in the bottom it would probably spontaneously combust in 10 seconds it's that hot. Also we have keep our in an indoor/outdoor area, if it was left outside I reckon it would rust. We bought it for my daughter 18th birthday party, cranked out 50 pizzas so it's paid for itself already! Great for mini pies too. I'll have a go at doing a whole rump in the summer...
Update, cooks meat beautifully too, keeping the heat out of the house, thermometer seems pretty accurate :)
Don't buy this stand! – Don't buy the stainless steel stand, its a nightmare to setup, half the screws dont line up and the order it tells you to set it up in is completely wrong, asks you to put the braces on before the middle strut, so you have to loosen the braces to get the strut in again,to add insult to injury, the door doesn't stay closed, there is no latch, wasted $345 on just the stand, taking it back to BBQs Galore today, piece of crap Show details
Crap – We have a pizza oven on our rusty complete kitchen. The oven works well but the surface rust is really bad. We live in Ashgrove Brisbane and approx 100km from beach. I called them and they advised it must be I cause. Not at all. And the kitchen is the same.

Cooks well, poor quality – Oven is 4 months old, won in contest. Stainless has begun to pit and rust. Tried cleaning it today with a VERY worn nylon kitchen scourer which scratched the surface if rubbed against the grain. Doesn't happen to my kitchen benchtop! No invoice because it was won, but would not be happy had it been paid for
fantastic oven cooks anything from roasts to sausage rolls – great addition to the barbie area,cooks anything you can cook in your oven in the house only better i do roasts ,pizza, sausage rolls,cakes, lasagna, it does it to a treat, highly recommend you get one, grab a second handy, if you cant go the newby,i got mine for a $100 bucks best $100 bucks i ever spent
Rusty cheap stainless steel – Our stainless steel oven is kept undercover and we don't live near the ocean yet in less than 12 months it is covered in surface rust. Even more disappointing was the customer service when this fault was reported. I was told how to clean it and that surface rust was not warrantable. Very disappointing considering I purchased stainless steel to… Read more
last. I have a stainless BBQ in the same location with no rust that is 12 years old. Cooks well Inferior stainless steel that rusted in less than 12 months. Terrible warranty service.
Excellence! – A true pizza maker! The results were amazing and a conventional oven can not compete with this at all! I was surprised and now enjoy pizzas that can rival my local pizza joint! Considering the price of this as well makes it worth while to buy! I am glad I bought it! Easy to use None to mention
makes grest pizzas – We bought this pizza oven on a stand for our back deck. It cooks pizzas to perfection. We don't even use our oven in the kitchen anymore it is easier to use the pizza over. It is really decently sized you can cook up to 3 pizzas at a time. You also get wood chips if u wanted a smokier flavour. This thing is portable we take it to friends houses for pizza nights and we even take it camping. Vlvery versatile pizza oven. versatile.good quality
Versatile – I wanted the pizza oven as we like to do our own pizza's, but also wanted a back up oven. It has been fantastic, and it really looks great sitting on our new stainless benching. Cooks well, looks great, inexpensive
Great Entertainer When Guests Are Over – Husband bought this as an early Xmas present for himself. At first we had an issue with the flame staying alight & the temperature dial was quite stiff so we had to return it to Melbourne & the problems were rectified. We have had quite a few "pizza nights" at our place with friends & family. My husband is coming up with some great pizza… Read more · 1
varieties. Cooks the pizza to perfection & it also cooks a great roast, very inexpensive to run. Minor problems from new out of box but these were dealt with quickly.
