Fontana Forni Firenze Hybrid Pizza Oven – Anthracite – FTFIR-H-A
Need a crowd-sized oven that won’t make you choose between weeknight ease and weekend wood-smoke? Hand-welded in Italy’s Le Marche region and cloaked in storm-gray powder-coat, the Firenze Hybrid flips from a blistering 68 000 BTU gas burner to crackling hardwood in seconds. Both fuels roar past 900 °F, and a cavernous 28″ × 24″ cordierite deck (that’s 672 sq in) pumps out three 10-inch pies at once while sipping up to five times less wood than bulky brick domes.

The Advantages of Fontana
Unique Features of Our Fontana Forni Outdoor Ovens
CROWD-SIZE MUSCLE
At roughly 264 lbs and 39″ W × 33″ D × 26″ H (73″ with chimney), the Firenze dwarfs most countertop ovens yet drafts like a pro. A 14″ vault swallows beer-can turkeys, Dutch-oven chili, and sheet-pan nachos without crowding.
GAS-TO-WOOD FLEXIBILITY
Tuesday tacos? Fire the gas burner and cook in minutes. Sunday feast? Feed hardwood through the rack and perfume every bite with live-fire aroma—one oven, two fuels, zero compromise. Swap back mid-service to sear steaks over gas after smoky pies.
FUEL-SIPPING EFFICIENCY
Reflective steel walls and aerospace-grade insulation stretch every BTU: a 20-lb propane tank yields ~18 hours at pizza temps, while a modest log bundle powers marathon bakes with minimal ash.
BUILT FOR 2025 DURABILITY
Marine-grade fasteners, UV-stable finish, and sealed stainless chimney shrug off salt spray, mountain frost, and desert sun—keeping your Firenze camera-ready year-round.
