In short: Emerio is a Dutch family-owned small-appliance company, and it is the brand that made the Emerio Pizzarette famous: a tabletop oven topped with a terracotta dome. At Raclette Club, we feature three of its Pizzarettes, for 4 to 8 people, and only one of them also comes with raclette pans.

The Emerio Pizzarette brand in a few lines

Emerio describes itself as “a Dutch family business with more than 25 years of experience,” according to its partner page at Boulanger, which lists a head office in Haarlem and a returns address in Enschede, in the Netherlands. On its own website, the brand mentions offices in Europe and Asia, warehouses in Europe, and four product families: kitchen, home, health and beauty, and air treatment. It highlights its own quality tests, with a slogan that has the merit of being clear: quality and safety first. Emerio does not publish a founding date on its site, so we won’t give one.

In the small world of dinners around the table, Emerio is best known for the Pizzarette. The principle fits in one sentence: a hot plate, a terracotta lid that works like a miniature wood-fired oven, and each guest slides their own mini pizza in on an individual spatula. Retailers describe a handmade terracotta dome, and the Amazon.fr listings mention a patented design. The range comes in several sizes and versions, including a 3-in-1 that adds raclette pans and a grill plate. For spare parts, Emerio’s website points to a dedicated site for ordering them.

What we think

Emerio’s strength is that it found a dinner format unlike any other. On paper, the Pizzarette ticks everything we love about raclette: everyone cooks for themselves, you chat while things bubble and brown, and nobody can blame the host for a failed dough. The terracotta dome gives a pocket-size wood-fired oven vibe, the insulated spatulas keep fingers safe, and the 3-in-1 PO-113255.4 adds six raclette pans for those who can’t imagine an evening without melted cheese over potatoes.

The limits are the same from one model to the next. According to Boulanger, none of the three has an adjustable thermostat: it is either on or off. The PO-115985 and PO-116124 have a non-removable plate, which makes cleaning a little trickier, and they are not raclette machines: no pan is mentioned in their listings. A German test also notes that the PO-115985 can cook slowly if you don’t preheat enough. Finally, the power of the PO-113255.4 varies by source (1200 or 1500 W). In short, a brand about conviviality rather than precision, to be bought knowing what you want to cook.

Which model should you pick?

  • For 2 to 4 people with kids: the Pizzarette PO-115985, four mini pizzas of about 11 cm at a time and 900 W.
  • For 6 who also want raclette: the 3-in-1 Pizzarette PO-113255.4, the only one of the three with six raclette pans and a grill plate.
  • For 8 and a 100% pizza night: the Pizzarette PO-116124, with its pre-bake function and its eight spatulas.
