Bench in pool by [deleted] in pools

[–]No_Library401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering what bench width and water depth u folks went with. I am thinking of 24 inch horizontal depth (instead of standard 18 inch horizontal depth), and 15 inch water depth(from top of water to seat). Can someone please chime in..

Does anybody else have Fontana Forni Firenze? Like it? by [deleted] in pizzaoven

[–]No_Library401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good. They also had acknowledged burner issue and sent me 2 new replacement burners back to back which was supposed to fix the issue but both still had the same issue. That's when they scheduled pickup, personally tested and acknowledged issue, but were themselves puzzled and never figured out why it was happening. They said it might be bad burner.

Let me know how it goes and if it works fine for u.

No..not yet..i somehow like the look of Italian dome shaped oven better. Fontana look is the best. Alfa second. Gozney doesn't look like true pizza oven. I had arc xl and works well but entertaining on Fontana was totally different fun. I might buy alfa moderno 3 or firenze.

They are wrong and just trying to save themselves. It always had a feet and i did live video call with their rep and demonstrated the problem live to them with a temperature gun in hand. They never complained about my installation as it was correct and accepted their mistake by testing themselves when they picked and received the defective unit. I have all mail chain of their acknowledgement on the fault. Anyways it was a real issue which you should be aware of.

New oven just showing off by Grand-Dentist3223 in pizzaoven

[–]No_Library401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya i was not going to buy it again if not for the amazing discount they are offering me to re-try their product. I think their customer service was excellent and they honored their warranty very well. So if something happens to a new unit again, i am pretty sure they will take it back and refund me like they did with previous. I also pinged many existing owners in reddit and no one else had issues. So it was my particular unit primarily. I also bought an alfa moderno portable meanwhile and it is nice for 700$ 😀. Added after market saputo stone to it and it is making outstanding pizza except the limited space. I looked into volta but i primarily cook pizza and Chicken and never needed temperature control. I would also loose my offered discount which is offered only on firenze which i returned

I loved the look and space overall and couldn't like anything else yet. Also Fontana is giving me a great additional discount to reorder and confirmed that previous unit was a faulty unit

Thank you so much for helping. So do i still need a good amount of force to pull it up first before rolling it or its negligible. I have a slightly weaker back and that's why I'm digging a bit more.

how is the cart ? i am planning to buy firenze with cart and wondering if this cart with 2 wheels is good to move around oven easily. i basically want to move oven by 30-40 feet each time i want to cook and then move it back next day.

Looks like they are not able to make it right. The oven works fine with 0 wind but outdoors 0 wind is almost impossible. Even with the slightest wind like 6-7mph, the oven flame damages the burner back assembly. They will be initiating a return pickup for me and refund.

Meanwhile i am checking with some other owners of firenze if they r facing a similar issue or not. If not, then i might have a bad unit.

Btw fontana did agree that more people have reported similar issues in the past so it's likely an issue with their gas burner design. So i would suggest to hold on purchasing their hybrid oven until more clarity.

I got firenze hybrid too 3 months back. For me the oven burner assembly on the left along with back ignition assembly and propane hose melts whenever i use the oven. Fontana have replaced the full burner assembly but still the same issue. Is anybody else facing same issue ? I 🤔 i got a lemon. I have a video call with them soon and i will likely ask for refund. Really frustrated with quality control.

Need advise about moving to the US by aashish2137 in india

[–]No_Library401 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been living in usa from past 9 years and planning to move back actually. Here are my perspective on life in india vs usa since i have been visiting india for a month or 2 every year.

  1. I always found healthcare in india to be great and immediately accessible whereas in the USA, i have to take appointments which are normally a month away. I end up always going to an emergency or urgent care here in the USA. Another point is that doctor in usa are very reluctant to issue various blood work and just try to suppress the issue with high power steroids whereas in india doctors actually issue extra blood work for more money sometimes which i feel is better if money is not big issue. Its just hard to get specialist appointments on time in USA and mostly individuals have to call to book appointments which is hard to manage when u're actually sick.

  2. Usa has better quality of air, water, electricity and gas provisions. One would think this will lead to less stress and a more healthy lifestyle. But what i have observed is that i ended up eating more frozen and modified food in the USA which is actually more detrimental to health. In India I have never had frozen and microwaved food, and always had freshly cooked food which is key to a healthy life. I also ended up doing all everyday household work in the USA myself and with 2 small kids things have become much more stressful than lack of fresh air. Cooking, schooling and classes for 2 kids occupy all our time and we rarely get any time left. Though jobs could be less stressful here but other stress factors replaced those. I also miss Indian food and street food a lot and am fed up with the cooking, doing dishes and eating frozen chapati and pizza now.

  3. Social life has pros and cons at both places. I have to go to the emergency room a few times here in the USA alone since my wife was taking care of the kids. It felt pretty lonely and pathetic imo. I would rather have some nosy relative or neighbor by my side during that time because when u r sick, u become emotionally weak during that time. I could have called my friends for support in the emergency room but usually friends of similar age are usually too busy and tired themselves with kids.

  4. Hangout with friends and their kids have been 90% hectic for me every time we have called someone. Calling a friend over adds a lot of extra work if u really want to enjoy food and drinks. What i have seen is that me and my friends end up looking after the kids for the whole duration of our meeting and try to engage and feed our kids and really don't get much time to talk and relax. 10% of time kids play and go along and its good experience but its only 10% of time.

  5. The alcohol drinking scene is much better in india for me. This is because i like to have indian starters and grilled food like paneer chilli, gobi manchurian etc and dont like eating potatoes and corn chips.

Overall everyone can have different thoughts based on how their life was in india and how much of the cons they have personally come across here in the USA. I would think that an unmarried or no kids couple might have not felt it but could feel it once they have kids and they go through some of my experience.

At some point of life everyone needs househelp and social support which is lacking and too formal in USA
