The Pi delivers on pizza quality by most accounts, but the wood-burning mode takes practice and at least one buyer ran into rust and a denied warranty claim, so plan to use the gas side as the default.

Overview
Solo Stove built the Pi as a dual-fuel outdoor pizza oven, switching between a wood-burning assembly and a gas burner inside the same 304 stainless steel Demi-Dome shell. It holds a 13 millimeter cordierite stone and stands 15.125 inches tall by 20.5 inches across, weighing 30.5 pounds.
The dual-fuel setup is the main selling point: the same dome switches between a wood-burning assembly and a gas burner, so the choice between wood flavor and propane convenience happens meal to meal rather than being locked in at purchase. Its Demi-Dome shape and wide Panoramic Opening are built to make loading and turning pizzas easier than reaching into a fully enclosed dome. Reviewers who bought it are largely happy with the pizza itself, though the wood-burning side and long-term finish come up as the rougher edges.

Who it's for
Suits someone who wants the option to switch between wood-fired flavor and propane convenience in one oven, and who is comfortable with a learning curve on dough handling and timing. Less suited to someone who wants to rely mainly on the wood-burning side, since a couple of reviewers found heat harder to control that way.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers who used the gas side describe fast, even cooking and pizza that beat their old setup, with several calling it easy to use once they got past a short learning curve on dough and timing. The wood-burning mode was the sticking point for a few reviewers, who found the heat harder to control and the stone slow to get hot enough, leaving raw spots on the bottom of the pizza. One buyer reported rust inside and out after about six months of light use and said Solo Stove denied a warranty claim by calling it a cosmetic rather than functional issue, and a couple of others received the oven with shipping damage.
