In my experience as a Kitchen Appliances Editor, I’ve discovered a little secret: winter is the best time to shop for pizza oven deals and summer kitchen gadgets.
While everyone else is thinking about sweaters and hot chocolate, I’m hunting for the best pizza ovens, gelato makers, and cold brew gadgets with up to 40% off. Stocking up in winter means I’m able to host cozy holiday pizza nights – and by summer, I’m already feeling smug with my alfresco setup.
The Ooni Pizza Oven brand offers great winter recipe ideas, like this Chanterelle and Sweet Potato Pizza with Pumpkin Seed Butter
Pizza ovens really come into their own during the summer months, but you can learn how to use a pizza oven in winter with a few easy hacks. To me, there's nothing like a Christmas pizza party next to the fire pit with a mug of mulled cider. I choose toppings like roasted chestnuts or spicy salami, then let everyone build their own creations straight from the oven
A pizza oven also makes an incredibly generous gift for a keen cook or entertainer. When I compared Ooni vs Gozney last summer, I realized capacious models from both brands can also roast joints of meat, bake cinnamon rolls, char vegetables, and more. Another reason why shopping for pizza oven deals in the frosty depths of December makes sense: you'll save on a thoroughly thoughtful holiday gift.

I put the Ooni Koda 16 Gas Pizza Oven to the test over the summer for my birthday party, and I was completely blown away. It reaches up to 950°F in 20 minutes, has a generous capacity, and cooks a Neapolitan-style pizza in just 60 seconds.
The Gozney Tread is small and unassuming, but it makes truly incredible pizza. The size and portability suit small gardens, beach houses, and camping trips (just don't expect to be able to take it on a hike!). Read more in our Gozney Tread review.
This gas-fired pizza oven can produce crisp and tasty pizza. It’s a compact model that’s great for small spaces. It’s simple to use and heats up fast, but it can only cook 12-inch pizzas. Read more in our full review.
I recently discovered Printworks Pizza Tools, and they make the perfect gift for any pizza lover. Every piece – from the peel to the cutter – is thoughtfully designed, sturdy, and easy to use, making homemade pizza feel fun and professional.
If you're tight on time and budget, but you still want to make your own pizza parties, you'll appreciate this quick outdoor cooker. Just don't expect it to deliver the same depth of flavor as one of the best brands. Read more in our full review.
The Gozney Venture Placement Peel is a game-changer for homemade pizza. Designed for precision and ease, it lets you slide pizzas in and out of your oven like a pro. It’s the kind of tool that any home chef – or aspiring pizza master – would be thrilled to receive
Once the oven is sorted, you might want to explore more off-season shopping and ensure the al-fresco setup is completed on a deal. You can create a beautiful outdoor space for less (I’ve been eyeing some of the best Amazon outdoor furniture on sale), and the gadgets that make prep a breeze, like the best blenders for cocktails, dips, and pizza sauces.
By stocking up on pizza oven deals now, you'll be ready for effortless entertaining all year round, in every season.
