Primo Oven
Pride of place installed in the garden – and pizza and roast pork cooked for 27! Thankyou for the lovely stove.
- John Armstrong, Mezzo 76 Oven
I purchased the primo 60 for my husbands 40th birthday as a surprise Laura was extremely helpful in helping and answering all my many questions! We have had an area bricked around the oven it looks amazing. We had our first pizza party at weekend cooked over 10 pizza’s to perfection. All I need for him is a delivery bike, so watch out dominos!!
HI Laura and Tom,
Thought you would like to see my completed Mezzo Oven, I love it!
Had lots of Pizza’s and great food from it already.
I have lots more photos from start to finish (all in bad weather) would you like to see more?
(see Garry’s Mezzo Wood Oven)

A bit late but here are my photo’s. Managed to get it built during the summer in a week and have been happily baking ever since.
Thanks for your help.

My oven arrived on Friday as promised. I had spent the day building the foundation, so on Friday evening one of my stronger friends arrived to help me lift it into position. I spent Saturday morning tidying the area, and by lunchtime I was ready!
I love it! I made pizza dough while the oven was heating up. Your oven cooked me the most delicious thin and crispy pizza that I have ever tasted, and then a thicker pizza made with garlic and olive oil. Later we cooked chicken with Mediterranean vegetables. That too was delicious!
I need to practice and learn, but I think that my wife and I might well give up on the kitchen cooker.
Thank you for your help and advice. I am looking forward to many happy hours of wood oven cooking.
Regards.
Martyn Ward.

It’s up and running very well, we use it most days and we’re just sorting
out garden lighting so we can use it during the short days of winter.
Many thanks,
Simon Greenall (Mezzo Oven)
Hi Tom, thanks for your advice over the additional insulation for my oven. I would just like to say how pleased we are with our Primo oven we recently had a lovely time with friends and family gathered around the oven making our own pizzas and roasting vegetables, the day was a great success with most of my friends leaving feeling very full and very envious,.

Hi All at Stonebake
All completed,(Primo Oven) did not get chance to have a run through before inviting 15 last Saturday evening. Used your tomato recipe and your dough recipe (fantastic) we made Gluten free pizzas, wholemeal pizzas and white flour pizzas – himself criticised the shape of some of them but I did point out his shift was yet to come ha!
Sent some piccies all went to plan – yes it did only take a minute and produced fantastic pizzas – I love it when a plan works. Everyone enjoyed the pizzas and said they were better than they had ever tasted before.
Thanks for all your help and patience.

The oven (Primo 60) arrived perfectly and I have just baked a pizza, a beef casserole and a perfect birthday cake for my daughter’s 20th!
Many thanks for all your help.
With all best wishes

Phil Voice Primo 60 Oven Review,
Extract:
“The Primo 60 oven is a quality product and I’d highly recommend it.
The design build quality of the Primo 60 is exceptional. The moulding is crisp and you can see care and attention has been taken during manufacture ”
“All in all I think my Primo 60 will be around for many years to come and give me hours and hours of satisfaction and well worth the price.”
Hi – I have a couple of questions about the Primo 60 we have. But also wanted to say how amazingly well it’s going – everyone is blown away by outdoor pizzas, and we’ve got bread, Italian hot pot, even soup, all cooking in it! (Italian beef stew, Stracotti di manzo, 4 hours in the oven, thickened with Orzo, best stew of my life. Some piccies and notes on my blog).
Thanks Jon
Here’s two little beauties (mezzo’s
) in full flow last night. We’ve named them mario & luigi. INCREDIBLE ovens
Got a Primo for my 60th birthday last year and the pizzas have turned out delicious!
i hope you like my pizza Oven (The Mezzo Oven)
Best regard from an Italian mad men
mauro fanton
The oven is doing very well thank you. We have had many social gatherings with friends. We held a pizza party for New Year and catered for about 30 people comfortably. I can surely provide some photos for you. I will dig them out and send them over
Cheers Jim,
The Primo is fantastic and has survived it’s first winter without issue.
I’ve really missed the outdoor cooking through winter as my wife doesn’t have the same passion to eat fresh pizza in the snow as I do! The plans and build for the outdoor kitchen went really well and the Primo really finishes it off, it looks right at home and as soon as we get a clear day, I’ll be lighting it up again. When I do, I’ll send you some photographs.
Thanks,
Darren,
The Pizza oven is great thank you! Photo attached – the blockwork has been painted since then! The third time we used it was when our son left for University and we had all his friends round – we cooked 20 pizzas from scratch in just over an hour.
Many thanks
Andy and Eli Puttock
Hi There
I bought a Primo from you in the summer – it is really really fabulous – everything you advertise and more. If you need anyone to view one in Scotland – they’d be welcome to come and see ours!
Thank-you!
Ronnie
Hi Laura,
I’d just like to confirm that the brush arrived on Friday 21st as promised and thank you once more for the call of reassurance. Your level of attention to a small order is a great credit to your business, well done.

Clive Robinson

Hi Stone Bake Team,

Thanks for your help,

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the Mezzo Oven, using it has been a pleasure, thank-you for your guidance, looking forward to many more wood fired dishes over the winter months!
Kind Regards,

cooked to perfection in my Primo oven
Baked NZ Greenlip mussels simply done with garlic butter,served with rosemary and olive oil roasted baby new potatoes washed down with lashing of homemade elderflower bubbly…..summer should always be like this!
Sorry for the overload of pics, can count on one hand how many times we’ve had the oven on in the house since we got our primo. So versatile and the kids love cooking outside, amazing bit of kit!!
Thought you may like some feed back!
Really loving it. After four weeks of experimenting with new oven felt i was ready to entertain so invited eight friends over for Pizza Evening. It was successful although still had not cracked the illusive ‘crusty base’ until yesterday!
Also picked up that wonderful recipes from one of your customers whereby you cook chicken thighs and choritzo in remaining tomato base sauce. Leave in oven to cook slowly. Takes about an hour and delicious
regards
Andrew
Thoroughly enjoying the Primo! Had a party last night, I think we did 15 pizzas – terrific summer evening.
We have had some wonderful pizza gatherings. Recently had a birthday party for my wife, who has a couple of favorites (BBQ chicken) and the starter I mentioned before (Carmelised Onion and Goat Cheese). This is a fairly simply pizza to make and everyone seems to love it to get the night started. I have attached a couple of pictures,
Thanks

Our Primo on a Sunday afternoon…

Our built in Primo Wood Burning Pizza Oven
All ready for our dinner guests!!!
Thank-you all for your help and for a smooth delivery of our Primo Oven. I have found the guidance second to none, and am enjoying getting to grips with my new oven. Particularly of use was the Cooking Techniques guide. Thanks again! Gale
I purchased my very first wood fired oven this April 2011 with the hopes of learning something new,
I have been pleasantly surprised with how easy the Rocca is to use, and the guidance provided by the Stone Bake Team,
Since then the majority of our cooking is wood fired! I have mastered Porchetta and Beef roasts!
Thanks for your support,

Hi I brought my primo back in October 2010, and have only recently had the chance to put it to the test, I have cooked several pizzas and even and boned out rolled leg of lamb for the family and I must admit its tastes and cooks beautifully the whole experience of using the oven with friends is great!
Best pizza I’ve ever tasted!
Dear Tom at The Stone Bake Oven Co.
Thank you so much for coming to our rescue at the 2010 New Forest Show.
The supplier of our clay oven let us down and then there you were! Lucky for us, as our cookery demonstration called for the production of at least a dozen pizzas a day! You installed one of your Stonebake ovens for us, gave us some wood and even sent one of your staff members across to check all was well.
Once it was fired up, the oven was amazing and we were banging out pizzas to a gathering crowd of people who could smell the aroma of fresh-cooked Margarita pizzas all across the show ground – no wonder our exhibit one first prize!
Thanks again for all your help and support and I can thoroughly recommend your ovens…I shall be buying one for myself once my garden is ready in the spring of 2011.
With best wishes

I’ve been enjoying my Primo oven for nearly two weeks now. It’s a great tool and a fantastic addition to our garden. The Primo is equally ideal for serving pizza for two, or busting out over 75 pies as we did last Saturday. It makes fantastic pizza and it’s a great party piece. Getting creative with our pizzas has become one of our favorite pastimes, and even a competition! The pizza oven is the new barbecue!! Viva la Primo! Thank You!
Wonderful! This has revolutionised the way I view family gatherings! I don’t have enough superlatives to describe how good this is. The happy, smiling silence of satisfaction as my friends and family tuck in is worth every penny spent. I can’t thank you enough!
My name is Greg Tutty, I have had my bespoke Stone Bake Oven for a couple of months now, since then we have had some great experiances cooking outside.
We have had slow roasted lamb, roasted beer can chicken and numerous pizza sessions.
We have had many great parties, catering for everybody, I look forward to many years of cooking ahead, thanks to Tom and all the team at The Stone Bake Oven Company.
