I have a cheap, electric oven and had the same problem. Even with a
well heated pizza stone, the pizza came out with browned cheese and
undercooked dough. My solution was to cook the dough for abut 5-10
minutes before I put any sauce or topping on. Pizza comes out great.
Make sure you spread some olive oil on the dough before you put any
sauce on it.
You might also want to stretch the dough thinner.
