What reviewers say

Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.

Solo Stove Pi Prime

Three independent hands-on testers — Tom's Guide, Reviewed and GearJunkie — all recommend the Pi Prime as the easiest, cheapest way into a propane pizza oven: 900°F-plus stone temps, Neapolitans in roughly 60-120 seconds, and setup measured at three to five minutes. Complaints cluster on imprecise temperature control and the need to keep turning pies so they don't char. Tom's Guide and GearJunkie both cite $349 at launch; Reviewed's page lists $399.99 at Amazon, so treat the price as roughly $350 and check current listings. (3 sourced reviews, 3 lab-tested.)

Praised: Setup is genuinely fast and simple — measured at three to five minutes from box to lit burner; Strong value and portability — about 30 lb, easy to move to a table, campsite or party, and cheaper than the wood/dual-fuel alternatives; Single front-mounted dial gives easier, more even heat control than a wood-fired oven.

Flagged: Precise temperature setting is hard — the dial takes dry runs to learn, an infrared thermometer is effectively required, and it took about 20 minutes to fall from 900°F to 550°F even at the lowest setting; Pizzas must be turned mid-bake or they char — the burner sits at the rear, and GearJunkie found the back still runs hotter than the front; The 13 x 3.5-inch mouth limits pizza size — Tom's Guide comfortably fit a 12-inch pie, and GearJunkie lists larger pizzas as a limitation.
