Our advice

The Margherita is our entry-level Fontana wood-fired oven for people who've made their choice: no gas, no shortcuts, wood and the ritual that comes with it. It's the right format for a generous balcony, a cottage patio, or a small yard.

We recommend it if: you cook for 4 to 6 people on average, you want wood without gas, you're looking for a serious Italian oven that lasts 20 years, not 5.

Choose the Napoli if: you want gas flexibility during the week and wood for occasions.

Choose the Mangiafuoco if: you regularly cook for 6 to 8 people.

Our suggestion: pair it with the Fontana cart (sold separately) so you can move it under cover for winter. And consider the Saputo Biscotto stones if you're chasing pure Neapolitan at 900°F in 60 seconds.

Maintenance and Precautions

Daily care

  • Let the oven cool completely before cleaning
  • Brush the cooking stone with a brass brush, never water or soap directly on a hot stone
  • Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild stainless steel cleaner

Winter and protection

  • The Margherita is built to stay outdoors year-round thanks to 304 stainless steel and anti-corrosion treatment
  • We recommend a Fontana cover to extend its life against rain, snow, and frost
  • In very cold weather, bring the oven up gradually on first fire to avoid thermal shock

Don't

  • Never use the oven without the chimney cap installed
  • Never pour cold water on a hot stone (it cracks)
  • Dry hardwood only, never treated, never softwoods like pine
  • Minimum clearance to combustibles per the Fontana manual

Why we love it

We chose Fontana because they've been building ovens in Italy since 1978. The Margherita is our pick for serious wood-fire fans: compact, real, the full ritual without having to build a dome.

Can the Fontana Margherita stay outdoors through a Canadian winter?
Yes. The Margherita is built to stay outdoors year-round thanks to 304 stainless steel and an electro-galvanized anti-corrosion coating. We recommend a Fontana cover to extend its life against weather. In very cold conditions, bring the oven up gradually on first fire to avoid thermal shock.
What's the difference between the Margherita and the Mangiafuoco?
The Margherita is compact, built for 4 to 6 people. The Mangiafuoco is larger, with a wider chamber that cooks three 10" pizzas at once. Same Italian DNA, same construction. The choice comes down to space and how often you host.
How long does heat-up take?
Plan on 30 minutes to reach 750°F (400°C) stone surface, perfect for cooking pizza. If you want to push to 900°F (482°C) for real Neapolitan in 60 to 90 seconds, give it 45 minutes once the flames are well established. Max temp is 900°F (482°C).
What kind of wood?
Dry hardwood only: maple, oak, beech, fruitwoods. Never softwood like pine (residue clogs the chamber and gives an off taste), never treated or painted wood. For logs, keep them 10 to 12 inches max.
Are the Saputo Biscotto stones worth it?
If you want real Neapolitan at 900°F in 60 to 90 seconds, yes, they change the game. Saputo Biscotto stones are made from refractory alluvial clay near Naples, and they're the only surface that handles those temperatures without burning the dough. For New York-style pizza or slower cooks, the standard stones do the job just fine.
Does the Margherita arrive assembled?
Yes. The oven arrives ready to use. Install the chimney and cap, run two break-in fires, and you're good for your first real cook.
