options for pizza enthusiasts and home chefs,” said Wayne Davis,
commercial leader at FirstBuild. “Outdoor pizza ovens lacked
convenience, and indoor options often require substantial ventilation.
The Monogram Pizza Oven easily integrates into the luxury kitchen,
offering professional-style pizzas any time.”
