Why you need an extended warranty for your pizza oven

Written by Justin Smith | Sep 12, 2023 12:08:13 PM

There's nothing like a slice of freshly-baked pizza−especially when you make it yourself (and it actually tastes good). Home pizza ovens are a great way to get restaurant-quality pizza from the comfort of your own backyard, and for half the price. With options such as the Solo Stove Pi Pizza Oven, Ooni Pizza Oven, and Blackstone Pizza Oven, you don't need to worry about shelling out for something as fancy as a brick pizza oven, and instead can unlock your inner pizza chef and make a pizza oven a permanent addition to your outdoor living space.

If you're going to shell out the money for a quality home pizza oven, you want to make sure it's protected to the fullest extent possible, and manufacturer warranties don't always provide the coverage you need. An extended warranty is the only way to ensure your pizza oven is protected despite any damage it might incur. Subscribing to Mulberry Unlimited will help protect your purchases so you can enjoy your delicious pizza stress-free.

Types of pizza ovens

There are a lot of options when it comes to pizza ovens, but only a few stand out in terms of quality. Here are some of the best home pizza ovens on the market, all of which are eligible for extended warranty coverage with Mulberry Unlimited.

Solo Stove Pi Pizza Oven

The Solo Stove Pi Pizza Oven is a popular option from the makers of Solo Stove fire pits. They offer an oven that runs only on wood, which costs $439.99, and another that runs on both wood and gas, which costs $614.99. It comes with a pizza stone, which you can use for faster, crispier pizza. Solo Stove even offers a Solo Stove pizza oven attachment, which you can use with the Bonfire fire pit model.

Solo Stove has a lifetime warranty on their products, however it only covers manufacturer defects and doesn't extend to damage or accidents.

Ooni Pizza Oven

Ooni offers pizza ovens that run on multiple types of fuel and come in a variety of different sizes. For example, the Ooni Karu 12 Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven can run on wood, charcoal, or gas. Each of Ooni's ovens are highly-rated, come with a pizza stone, and range in price from $349.99-$799.99, which provides a fair amount of flexibility for your wallet. Ooni also claims their ovens can reach upwards of 950 degrees in just 15 minutes, making the preheat time very quick.

Ooni offers a free 1-year manufacturer's warranty on all their products, with the ability to make it a 3-year warranty if you register your Ooni pizza oven on Ooni's website within 60 days of receiving it. However, this warranty only covers manufacturer defects.

Blackstone Pizza Oven

Blackstone has two models of pizza ovens, plus a conversion oven. The Blackstone Pizza Oven with Cart is the newest model, which allows for the greatest amount of mobility and pizza-making options. The oven runs on gas, which you can place in the bottom portion of the cart, and it comes with a pizza stone, pizza peel, and built-in pizza peel holder. Blackstone also makes a portable pizza oven, which is gas-powered as well. The Blackstone Pizza Oven with Cart is $999.99, and the Blackstone Portable Pizza Oven is $499.99, placing them on the pricier side.

Blackstone offers a 1-year manufacturer warranty on their products, which covers manufacturer defects.

Gozney Pizza Oven

Gozney makes two types of home pizza ovens, both of which are highly-rated. The Gozney Dome pizza oven is professional-grade, and includes an accessory port to connect attachments, a steam injector, regulated air ventilation, and more for $1,999 (whew). The Gozney Roccbox pizza oven is smaller and portable, comes with single or multi-fuel options, and costs $499.

Gozney offers a standard 1-year manufacturer warranty for manufacturer defects on their Dome and Roccbox products, with the ability to make it a 5-year warranty if you register your Gozney pizza oven on the Gozney website within 60 days of receiving it.

Bertello Pizza Oven

Bertello pizza ovens have some of the best reviews out there, and have only increased in popularity since appearing on ABC's Shark Tank. They make two models, one with wood and gas fuel options, and another with the ability to run on wood, gas, or charcoal. A Bertello pizza oven is no-frills, with few accessory options, making it ideal for the pizza purist. The smaller model costs $329.99, and the slightly larger model costs $587.99, with various bundle options available.

Bertello has a a 3-year warranty on its pizza ovens, and comes with the stipulation that if you aren't satisfied with your pizza oven, you can return it either used or unused within one year of its purchase for a full refund.

Why you need an extended warranty for your pizza oven

Although each of these manufacturers offer their own warranties, they don't provide coverage for the real, day-to-day use and wear your pizza oven will be seeing. By only providing coverage for manufacturer defects, manufacturer warranties aren't giving the level of coverage that makes an actual difference when it comes to protecting your products.

An extended warranty is the only way to make sure your pizza oven has the warranty coverage you need. Although extended warranties can bring an additional cost, Mulberry Unlimited is affordable, and well worth it to ensure your pizza oven is covered in the event of an accident or other damage. If you need to file a claim with Mulberry, you'll never pay any deductibles or service fees.
