Ooni Karu 2 Countertop Wood-Fired Pizza Oven - UU-P30300

Fantastic upgrade from my 7 year old 2nd generation pellet fired Uni oven. This new Ooni Karu 12 exceeded my expectations. In my old oven the first pizza was always like the first pancake, not the best. But with the Karu 12 you're able to make pizza perfection on the first go. I highly recommend getting the box of wood chunks from their website. They were so easy to use and fit perfectly in the fire box. I love this oven!

Awesome pizza oven! Simple setup and use.

Bought the Ooni Karu 12G as a 40th birthday gift from my wife. Made our first pizzas tonight using the gas burner as I felt it would be a nice ease into the outdoor pizza oven cooking experience and boy were we blown away by how easy this oven is to cook pizzas. The top cooked perfectly while the hot stone crisped and cooked the pizza from the bottom. Don't hesitate to get this oven as it is very high quality and should last. Decided to go the 12" oven route over the 16" ovens due to portability. We like to camp and don't have a secure place to store the oven outside regularly at home so the 12" with the carry bag was the right option for us to move it around. Looking forward to years of making fabulous pizzas and entertaining the kids and guest in the future. Make sure you preheat the oven and stone before launching the pizza. My first one was just barely done on the underside but the second go was perfect after a longer preheat was established. I also recommend the turning peel as it makes turning the pizza within the oven a breeze! Next cook may be on wood to compare the difference between it and gas.

This is an awesome oven, capable of making fantastic, pro-quality pizza. I primarily use it with the matching gas burner, but I like the option to use wood or charcoal to experiment with flavor and sustain different temperatures. The magnetic, glass door is much easier to use, and obviously to see through, than the metal version on the original Karu. The metal flame deflector at the top of the dome helps create a nice, rolling flame over the pizza. The deflector and the door together result in a more evenly heated stone and more even cooking on top of the pizza. This reduces the amount of rotation needed while cooking pizza which improves the browning and crispness of the bottom of the crust. The quality of the available gas burner is also much improved over the original Karu burner, with a better lighting system and more refined temperature control. It's super easy to attach or remove the burner, making it quick to switch fuels or to clean or repair the burner as needed.

We've been eating so many pizzas since we got the Ooni. It's been great to have friends over and share pizzas with them as well! Definitely worth the investment.

By far the best oven on the market that makes the best pizzas. I've owned it now for a little over 3 months and have made 30+ pizzas with it. It makes pizzas that are by far better than any store bought or restaurant made pizzas I've had.

Two pizzas two weeks ago, Pizza and drum sticks last weekend and a porterhouse steak today. I have to hone my pizza making skills but this wood Fire pizza oven is amazing. FYI I am a beginner with this oven, things can only get better!

We love our OONI. We really wanted to have pizza at the beach, but the weather has not permitted; with all of the rain in So Cal. So, we tried it out in the backyard and it was a huge hit. Family and friends had a great time.

Very impressed, easy set up.

We have only used this 2 times, but look forward to MANY more this spring/summer!
