Inc. 4723 Marine Avenue Lawndale, CA. 90260 RE: The tariff classification of a pizza maker from China. Dear Mr. Ige: In your letter dated September 17, 2013 you requested a tariff classification ruling. A representative sample, including an instructional booklet, was submitted with your request and will be returned to you. The product to be imported is the Breville Crispy Crust, Model # BPZ600XL. Described as a 12” stone pizza oven, this portable flip top countertop appliance has both top and bottom heating elements. It also features an on/off switch, variable temperature control, a viewing window and a heating indicator light. The Crispy Crust comes with a cool touch handle, sturdy non slip feet and a removable pizza stone. This product is marketed strictly for household use. You suggest classification of this electrothermal appliance in subheading 8516.60.4080, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) as an other oven. However, since this unit is portable, we find that it is more specifically provided for elsewhere in heading 8516.
