Oven: JA70 Nero
Customer: Mike Robinson

When Mike Robinson set out to build his outdoor area, a wood fired pizza oven was the missing piece.
“We love outdoor cooking — low and slow BBQ, lighting fires, the whole experience. I’d always wanted a pizza oven to really complete the space. It’s perfect when entertaining.”
After (possibly too much!) research, Mike landed on Jalando — and hasn’t looked back.
A big part of the decision came down to design and quality. “The oven looks great, the quality is excellent, and I really love the steel front. It looks cool, it’s easy to clean, and even after plenty of cooks it still looks new. The custom-fit cover was also a big plus — it keeps the oven looking good even when it’s not in use.”
Getting the setup right took some planning. “I wanted the oven slightly out of the way, but still the main feature of the outdoor area.”
Mike and his apprentice built the posts and frame themselves over about three months — not bad for “a couple of sparkies.” The structure was made from oiled merbau, with a custom slab delivered on site.
“With help from my mate Johno and his small excavator, we lifted both the slab and the oven into place.”
The oven’s already seen plenty of action:
Lots of pizzas (of course)
Chicken wings
Steak
Lamb and pulled pork, slow cooked and finished off the next day
Mike was really happy with the service he received from the Jalando team, he says “More than happy with Jalando — I would highly recommend them!”
