March is an exciting month for many reasons. Not only did this calendar month bring the start of Spring, Pi Day, Sleep Awareness week, but it also housed the launch of a handful of exciting new products in the home and garden. From a hidden kitchen sink to a microwave oven fit for a construction site, here are the best launches in the home to put on your radar.

Ooni just launched its first electric pizza oven for indoor use.

The brand behind the market’s most coveted outdoor pizza oven (our personal favorite from hands-on testing, too!) just launched an electric indoor-outdoor model to bring into your kitchen. Ooni’s latest features a large 13-inch cooking surface, precise temperature dials, a cordierite baking stone, and a built-in timer with none of the ashy mess of a wood-burning oven. Plug the Volt oven into an outlet, and this hot appliance goes up a scorching 850 degrees Fahrenheit in just 20 minutes—the temperature you want to get restaurant-quality pies out in 90 seconds flat.

Get the Volt electric pizza oven at Ooni for $999.
