what is a pizza bump

The back of the toaster is not flat. There is a "bump out" so you can put a round pizza inside. The width of the toaster at the sides is narrower than the width at the middle.

It is a roundish bump-out in the back of the toaster oven that allows you to fit a frozen pizza in there. The negative is that this curved out feature means you cannot put the toaster oven flush against the back of the counter. I did not like how much room it took up front front to back so I ended giving mine away and buying one without the pizza bump. If you heat up a lot of frozen pizzas and you have a lot of counter space, the model with the pizza bump should work for you.

Back of toaster oven bows outward allowing more room in side. Please consider the bump out when thinking of where you will put it.

This peel works for me for pizzas if I put paper on it first. I think it would work great for pittas and flat bread.

Based on their web site, the Pronto is an upgrade to the PizzaQue. The Pronto has reflectors inside the top so moisture still exits at the top but around the "shield" that reflects heat back to the pizza.

The bump / ridge is along the bottom side. The protrusion that you can see on the side actually slips into the battery connection area on your laptop.

The pizza comes out of the pan really easy so we just pop it out and cut it on a flat surface. We use a round roller cutter.

9-1/4" to 9-1/2" deep (has a mini-pizza recess in the center back), 10-1/2" wide, 3-1/4" tall

Both, but I seldom take my pizza stone out of the oven. I use a pizza peal to lay and remove pizzas on and off the stone. I start the pizzas in a pan. When the dough/pizza becomes firm enough, I slid the pizza out of the pan and onto the peal, then into the oven onto the stone. I coat a few grains of cornmeal onto the pan (prior to adding the pizza) and on the peal to make the pizza slide easily. The stone is great for making the crust extra crispy.

There is no bumper. Do not waste your money. I bought this and my son just rolled off the mattress every single time. It was terrifying to find him at the edge with face against the crib wall. If you need a raised mattress, I highly recommend Tucker Sling for Crib Mattresses by Pollywog Baby. Best thing I ever bought and my son slept through the night!

The stone needs to be 450 degrees or hotter. The pizza is the slid onto the stone. Flour or corn meal is used to slide the pizza off of a peal.

I found that if you check the crust after 10 minutes you can pop any bubbles with a fork. Then if you flip the crust before topping, you will have a smooth side to add all your sauce and toppings.

It has a rounded space popped out in back and that is why it can fit a 12" pizza. It does not fit 12" square. Just a 12" diameter circle.

I bought a thin metal pizza peel from Amazon and that was key. Once the oven gets hot, it is awkward (and hot) to muck with the top; much better to slide the pizza in. I also find I need to rotate the pizza once during cooking for even cooking, and the thin metal peel makes this a piece of cake. If you make the pizza in advance, use corn meal or some other strategy to ensure the pizza can slide easily from the peel into oven unit (perhaps even freezing it a little). All that said, the Pronto works great. Recently made a wonderful pan pizza in it as well.

The underside of this is flat, not grooved like a panini press. I use it for toasted cheese and other toasted sandwiches, and like it a lot. Just wipe off the bottom...easy to clean.

Yes! I had a cheese overflow accident from a pizza and it wiped right off even though it had cooked on there for a bit.

Depends on whether you like round or square hamburgers . I guess if you were doing bacon the square one would be better.Square things like sandwiches would go better with a square press - while small pizzas would like round presses.

Pretty simple, the holder with handles is designed to make it easy to carry the pizza on the stone from the grill. Pizza stones are pretty heavy and having the handles makes it a lot easier to set up on the grill. You can also use the stone to make pita bread, eastern indian naan breads and so on. You can build your pizza on a wooden pizza peal with a little corn meal dusted on it and then with a practiced sweep slide it right on the stone. And use the peel to get under the crust and pull it off, It's best whatever brand of stone you buy to measure with a tape measure the width of open area and when buying a pizza peel measure it with the tape measure to be sure the two are compatible.

use a pizza screen instead of a pizza pan if you prefer the brown and crisp type of crust
