- 16-gauge stainless steel body with continuous welding

- One Flat Cooking Surface™ — 1.25" thick refractory stone floor for even heat distribution
- 4 adjustable leveling feet for setup on uneven surfaces
- Heats to 750°F+ in about 15–25 minutes

For anyone comparing portable pizza oven options that run on gas rather than wood, the Nino's stainless steel construction and countertop footprint make it suited to regular home use.
