The Uuni 3 gives the wood-fired oven a 2017 makeover
Say hello to the Uuni 3 wood-fired oven, a new improved take on the original Uuni and its follow up, the Uuni S2. The shiny new and updated model boasts a range of design and technical modifications on the inside and out that make it perfect for some outdoor pizza creation.
The new Uuni 3 reaches up to 500°C (932°F) in just 10 minutes, and can cook authentic wood-fired pizza in an incredible 60 seconds - 1-2 minutes faster than the Uuni 2S. The patent-pending oven runs on wood pellets which are both energy-dense and inexpensive.
The new design has four feet instead of three for great stability, a Grate and Hopper for easier loading of wood and an extra insulation for a superior cooking experience.
The stainless steel oven also has a unique new Chimney Lock mechanism, making it easier than ever to pack up for outside use. You can even use the Uuni 3 with the forthcoming Uuni Gas Burner, should you want to add a little versatility to your setup.
The Uuni 3 Wood-Fired Oven will retail for £199 and will be available from mid-April 2017.
