This is a well built oven that will last if taken care of. It's going to take you 20-30 pizzas to get the feel for it. It's kind of like learning to play an instrument the more you practice the better you become.

Very well made! Was much heavier constructed than I expected…. which is good. Worked well(only used it once so far, and really gotta learn proper launching techniques). Only negative I would say it doesn't reach the 900+ temperature as advertised (at least with propane gas. And maybe a result of the gas hose being severely kinked in packaging. ) But did achieve 700+, which should be sufficient.
Outstanding quality and material. Very simple instructions from start to finish. The essential guide is fantastic. But basic recipe for dough calls for 12 cups water.
I bought my Ooni 16 multi fuel pizza oven in May of this year. I live in Minnesota and switched the fuel source to wood burning as propane doesn't burn well when the temperature drops. The temperature dropped to -1 with a wind chill of -21 F. The oven easily managed a temperature between 750-800 and delivered two delicious pizzas within minutes. Thank you Ooni. Looking forward making pizzas year round.

I had been using the Ooni 3 for a long time. Comparing the Karu to the Ooni 3 is just not fair to the 3. Heat retention is so much better in the Karu. There's more space so I can start experimenting with some larger pies. This is an all-around better oven and my pizza game is just getting better now.
I've had the Karu 16 for about a year and a half now and I have to say it's an amazing oven. There is definitely a learning curve and a lot of trial and error to making the perfect Neapolitan pizza, but once you get it right, the pizzas are amazing. I grew up in NYC and I am happy to say that I can make pizzas at home here in NC that make me forget all about NY pizza. I have arrived at using the propane burner and cooking at around 700F, which works well for my 70% hydration, double-fermented dough recipe.

We set this up, and first hooked it up to propane - made our first dough - and it was heavenly. Loved the experience and we are making pizza's all the time! what a great design.
This was a gift for our son's family. They love it. The unit arrived well-packaged. It was easy to set up and use after break-in. We ordered the natural gas option as a multi-fuel option for quick heating and use, but like the option for wood-fired pizza if desired. It works as expected and designed. They are very pleased with their new Ooni Karu 16 pizza oven.
I purchased two of the multi one for me and other as a present. Shortly after using I noticed that screws were loosening door on top where wood goes warped. Orig glass door kept falling off brackets and flimsy. They have fixed apparently these issues but mine was not worth the money I have since gave mine to my son but issues continue and can't afford new one. I have recommended to three people this year but don't advise buying first products. Also feel that you need the door to maintain a good temp in cooking otherwise cools down fast when having open. Also opening is narrow should be higher and I am a pizza maker off 25 years

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
