Arc Lite is the defended compact Gozney choice when low carry weight and a 12-inch gas chamber matter more than an integrated thermometer, larger deck or live-fire option.

What changed
Older observations stay in the ledger when the current view changes. That lets a buyer tell the difference between an old complaint, an active issue, and a problem that was corrected.
Arc Lite Pizza Oven was checked against current manufacturer identity and U.S. price, manual or specification, support, independent cooking evidence and bounded owner evidence.
Each amount stays tied to its source and capture date. Conflicting prices remain visible until the seller resolves them.

Owner experience
Owner evidence is retained as a setup, heat-management, launch, recovery, cleaning and service checklist for Arc Lite Pizza Oven, not a cooking-outcome or reliability rate.
Reports are self-selected and span different oven generations, fuels, regulators, weather, elevation, dough, toppings, peels, thermometers, surfaces, accessories, maintenance and owner skill. They cannot prove population reliability, safe use, preheat, recovery, throughput, food safety, service rate or crust quality.Self-selected exact-system owners discuss launch technique, heat-up, floor recovery, wind, turning, fuel use, cleaning, storage, failures and support. Their reports span different weather, dough, fuel, accessories and maintenance and do not establish throughput, reliability, food safety or cooking outcomes.

Gozney identifies Arc Lite as a 26.4-pound 12-inch propane oven with a removable 12-millimeter stone and lateral gas flame in Gozney's compact Arc format.
Gozney lists Arc Lite at $399.99. The retained U.S. product is a propane oven; cylinder, table, peel, cover and infrared thermometer are separate, and natural-gas conversion is not implied
Arc Lite uses propane with its specified hose and regulator and a manually adjusted lateral flame. It is not a wood oven and this record does not authorize a natural-gas conversion. Gozney states temperatures up to 950°F and rapid pizza cooking. Heat-up and bake claims depend on weather, regulator supply, stone reading and technique and are not guaranteed. The chamber accepts one pizza up to 12 inches on a removable 12-millimeter stone. Small size limits turning space, so peel head and pizza diameter should be tested below the nominal maximum. Use outdoors only with the listed clearances, leak checks and level support. Protect the cooled oven and dry stone in storage and never operate in a tent, garage, vehicle or enclosure.
Ignition and burner setting are manual and Arc Lite has no integrated digital thermometer. Use rated external tools and direct supervision; an infrared floor reading is not a food-temperature reading. Cool fully, remove and dry-clean the stone as directed and keep water away from hot stone. Registered warranty can extend to five years; verify burner, igniter, regulator and stone parts in the U.S. support channel.
Independent hands-on cooking evaluates portability, heat, launch room and results. It does not prove batch recovery or lifetime service.
Self-selected exact-system owners discuss launch technique, heat-up, floor recovery, wind, turning, fuel use, cleaning, storage, failures and support. Their reports span different weather, dough, fuel, accessories and maintenance and do not establish throughput, reliability, food safety or cooking outcomes.
CDC explains that fuel-burning devices produce odorless, colorless carbon monoxide and can poison people and animals when fumes accumulate. Outdoor-only instructions and ventilation boundaries remain controlling.
NFPA outdoor-cooking guidance supports stable placement away from structures, direct supervision and separation of children, pets and combustibles. The product manual supplies the exact clearance.
FoodSafety.gov gives food-specific safe minimum internal temperatures. Oven air, deck readings, cook timers and browned crust do not substitute for an appropriate food-temperature check.

Manufacturer identity, exact current U.S. price, specification or manual, support path, independent food or cooking editorial testing and bounded exact-system owner evidence were checked on August 20, 2026. This market covers complete current U.S.-supported dedicated outdoor pizza ovens across portable, countertop, cart, freestanding, propane, natural-gas, wood, charcoal, supported multi-fuel and outdoor-electric branches. It excludes indoor countertop ovens, grill inserts and attachments, loose burners, stones, peels and carts, unsupported marketplace imports, obsolete models, finish-only variants, padded retailer bundles and bare masonry or firebox components without a complete supported oven. Preserve the exact base fuel, factory fuel variant and documented conversion kit; regulator, hose, cylinder, gas pressure, electrical voltage, circuit and turntable power; maker-stated maximum temperature, preheat and bake claim limits; stone or deck material and thickness, opening, pizza diameter, cookware height and simultaneous capacity; measured floor recovery rather than peak air temperature; burner zone, wood size, ember, draft and ash control; cold-only portability, weight, cart or counter rating; assembly, clearances, outdoor ventilation, weather and dry-storage plan; ignition, thermometer, probes, rotating mechanisms and loss-of-power behavior; cleaning, stone thermal shock, burner and drive service, parts and written warranty. Combustion ovens create carbon-monoxide and fire hazards and must not be used in a garage, tent, RV, enclosed porch or other enclosed area. Keep children, pets, combustible materials and loose clothing clear, do not move a hot oven, allow fuel, ash, stone and metal to cool fully, leak-test gas connections and follow local fire, gas, electrical and permit rules. Stone or air temperature does not establish safe food temperature. No oven, fuel, temperature claim, review, owner report, monitoring feature or recipe guarantees crust, preheat, recovery, pizzas per hour, food safety, reliability or any cooking outcome.
