Bertello 12-inch SimulFIRE Everything Bundle review

The Bertello 12-inch SimulFIRE Everything Bundle (U.S. product ID 4594356092997, SKUOVENEVERY2) is a compact outdoor gas-and-wood kit. Its exact listing includes a propane burner, trays for solid fuel and for wood over the burner, hose and regulator, 12-inch cordierite stone, metal peel, cover and non-contact infrared thermometer. Bertello describes using gas and wood together. The tradeoff is a small cooking floor and setup details that still need the exact instructions.

The bundle is more than an oven body

This exact bundle includes the hose, regulator and wood tray designed for use over the gas burner, plus a separate tray for wood, charcoal or pellets. Gas and wood can therefore be used together without buying a burner kit later. Bertello’s flavor description is a maker claim, not a side-by-side cooking result.

The bundled non-contact thermometer is handheld, not a screen attached to the oven. It can give a point-in-time surface reading where aimed, but it is not a live oven display, a food probe, a phone monitor or remote heat control. If an on-oven dial, a continuous stone readout or phone monitoring is essential, the bundle does not document those functions. The current package page does not document powered rotation, while the FAQ links a 12-inch manual that describes turning a pie by hand. Because that manual does not cross-reference SKUOVENEVERY2, neither a powered turner nor an exact hand-turn procedure is confirmed for this bundle; check the instructions supplied with the oven before treating either as an essential fit.

Stone diameter and pizza diameter are different facts

The manufacturer calls this a 12-inch oven and lists a 12-inch cordierite stone. Its FAQ gives the cooking surface as 13.39 by 12.36 inches and the stone thickness as 0.6 inches (15.25 mm). These dimensions explain the small cooking floor, but neither the 12-inch stone nor the rectangular surface dimension is an explicit maximum usable pizza size. The opening, turning clearance and practical dough limit are not stated for SKUOVENEVERY2. A 12-inch pizza is therefore not a confirmed fit just because the stone is called 12 inches. If a particular diameter is an essential requirement, ask Bertello for the allowed pie size for the exact package before buying; the finder keeps that capacity unknown.

Bertello’s product page promotes temperatures above 900°F and a quick heat-up with the gas burner. Those are manufacturer claims, not a verified maximum stone temperature, measured result or promise for a cold-weather cook. The infrared thermometer is useful for checking a chosen spot, but the bundle does not specify an electronic setpoint, accuracy or a repeatable preheat curve. Treat this as an oven for a cook willing to monitor the cooking floor, not as an appliance that automatically holds a chosen baking temperature; exact turning procedure remains unconfirmed.

Check the actual shipment instructions before setup

The listing and bundle are expressly described as outdoor, and the included gas burner is propane rather than a documented natural-gas version. The current Bertello FAQ links a manual labelled for the “Bertello One 12” oven, while this product page calls the package the “12-inch SimulFIRE Everything Bundle” and does not cross-reference SKUOVENEVERY2. The linked manual itself does not print this retail SKU on its cover. It is useful family documentation, but that missing crosswalk means its connection, clearance and other safety steps should not be assumed to apply unchanged to every current bundle. Confirm the manual and rating label supplied with the exact oven before connecting fuel or choosing a location.

Bertello’s FAQ lists the unboxed dimensions with the gas burner attached as 30.6 by 14 by 13.9 inches and the weight as 41.9 pounds. This is the manufacturer’s figure for the burner-attached configuration, not a bare-oven weight; allow extra working room for the peel and for access around the front. Those are product dimensions, not a safety-clearance envelope. The exact current product page does not publish an SKU-specific combustible setback, permitted surface material or assembly instructions. Do not infer that a table which fits the footprint also satisfies safe placement requirements. Use the instructions supplied for the exact unit and check local requirements.

Who should consider it?

This bundle is a strong candidate for someone who specifically wants propane and solid-fuel equipment in one purchase, a small cordierite floor, and the included cover and handheld thermometer. The supplied tools reduce the temptation to improvise a burner connection or buy a generic tray. It is a weaker fit for a cook whose first requirement is a confirmed 12-inch pizza, motorized rotation, an integrated temperature display, natural gas, indoor use or a known clearance limit. The 41.9-pound burner-attached figure is also worth checking against the person who will lift or store the assembly.

If you want a larger floor, powered turning or a numeric display, compare other reviewed models on those exact needs instead of treating this bundle’s accessories as a substitute. The Bertello 16-inch configurations are separate catalogue entries; their stone, rotation, fuel hardware and manuals should not be inferred from this 12-inch package. In the finder, choose propane or one of the listed solid fuels when that is your intended arrangement, and leave pizza diameter or a temperature target as a requirement only if a model’s own evidence confirms it. This is an unusually complete fuel-and-tool package, but it is not a documented answer to every size or placement question.

Sources checked October 24, 2026: Bertello’s exact 12-inch SimulFIRE Everything Bundle listing, its official FAQ, and the manual linked there for Bertello One 12. The manual-to-SKUOVENEVERY2 bridge still needs confirmation; its safety details are not silently carried over.
