The Blue Rooster Casita Grill Chiminea Outdoor Fireplace Wood Burning Firepit and Pizza Oven

We love this! The firebox portion is easy to use and very functional. The pizza oven is awesome! makes great 12" pizzas in about 5 minutes. We've had three "make your own" pizza parties in the first few weeks since we bought this and everyone loves it. We set this up on the outside corner of our deck - perfect spot and looks great. Note: the first cover we bought for it didn't fit even though it popped-up in the "frequently bought together" section. We returned it and bought the one made by Blue Rooster - it fits great.

The product arrived today, but I was at work and did not see this till late at night tonight. I decided to install it and it was done within 30 minutes. Heavy duty stuff that's made from great materials. Seems to be built to last, if you take good care of it. I have used it yet, but it looks terrific when it is in front of you. It's just the right size. Package game in great condition. Not a single dent or scuff. They give you paint if you did manage to get a scuff or two. Can't wait till I use it. Thanks.

I'm kinda torn on this Chiminea. No doubt it is very well made and will be super-durable. The main issue, though, is that it doesn't put out as much heat as I had hoped. I'm a pretty serious outdoor fire guy. I've got fire pits, pellet stoves, propane heaters, and a clay chiminea. And for this one, given the cost, I was hoping for some SERIOUS HEAT. Yet, somehow this doesn't project nearly as much heat as my clay chiminea. Maybe it's because it's aluminum and it heats the space all around, and doesn't throw 90% of it's heat out the opening? If I absolutely PACK it with wood and get it super cranking, it does ok, but then I start a small fire in my $50 (ten years ago) clay chiminea and I'm like... whoa... now that's some heat!!

This was a Father's Day present. My husband really, really likes it.We have already used it to cook a pizza and some zucchini for dinner. Everything was good, but the pizza was perfect!! We did use a pizza stone in the pizza oven, but the crust was very yummy. Better than using the oven for cooking the pizza!

Gorgeous oven and fireplace. This does meet up to the previous reviews I have read. Solid, and very attractive. The only downfall would be the lack of a thermometer in the upper oven. It's a bit difficult to bake a pizza without one. But we will drill our own hole and insert one. The workmanship is glorious! Nicely done! No damage at all! Our goal is to set up a pizza baking corner outside off of the patio. We don't want it beneath the awning as it would capture smoke, so we intend to build a small attached patio just for this oven and close to our front door to keep the pizza good and hot on those frosty nights to and from the indoor kitchen. It is a visual joy, so to hide it would be a shame. It deserves to be appreciated by guests coming to our front door. We intend to add flower beds around the small patio to hold freshly grown 'pizza' herbs, like oregano and basil. Big enough for a small outdoor metal bistro settee with two chairs so we can sip drinks while admiring the blazing fire inside. It will provide ambiance with the visual perspective (who doesn't love to watch a blazing fire?) and the wonderful aroma of baked goods. I intend to also attempt baked breads and other delicious treats. The 14" pizza stone fits perfectly into the oven too. So bigger pizza options as well! We just love it!!!

I have had a clay chimenea for 3-4 years. It finally gave out and broke into pieces. After a lot of research I found Blue Rooster company. I ordered the Casita Grill chimenea outdoor fireplace wood burning firepit and Pizza oven. This thing is FANTASTIC, it is made as well as a wood stove. I am super impressed with the quality and workmanship. NOTHING cheap about it at all. My great grand children will be able to use it long after I'm gone. If you are looking for a heavy duty chimenea, this one will not disappoint.

I'd love to give it 4.5 stars. It's the F-35 of the chiminea world, i.e. jack of all trades, master of none. It's a chiminea, pizza oven, and grill due to its modular configuration, which also means it's incredibly easy to put together and take apart for cleaning/moving. The only reason I ding it .5 stars (if I could actually do that) is because mine had one broken and one cracked weld, which I will repair with xtreme temp JB weld. If you're looking for just heat, this isn't what you're looking for. If you're looking for a multi-purpose grill/oven that can *also* provide some heat, you won't find better as far as I know.

A little pricey, but very nice. Fire grates are heavy duty. Body and stand are very nice. I only wish the hinge and latch were a little thicker.
