Ooni – The pizzeria in your own backyard
Dreaming of authentic Italian pizzas with a light, airy crust and genuine wood-fired flavor? With Ooni, you can bring that experience straight to your backyard or kitchen. Founded in 2012 in Scotland (formerly Uuni), Ooni set out with one goal: to create an affordable, portable wood-fired pizza oven for everyone. The brand sparked a revolution in outdoor cooking by launching the world’s first portable pellet pizza oven.
Today, Ooni is a leading name among home cooks and food enthusiasts, with innovative pizza ovens that easily reach 500 °C and bake crisp, Neapolitan-style pizzas in an instant. Whether you’re a seasoned pizzaiolo or just starting your pizza adventure, Ooni makes the process fun, accessible, and fast. Preheat in just 15 minutes and bake pizzas in 60–90 seconds—faster than your local pizzeria! Ooni’s motto: everyone deserves great pizza. And it shows—smoke plumes and the aroma of freshly baked pizza pop up everywhere, from backyard parties to balconies.
Innovation and Technology Behind Ooni
Ooni pizza ovens stand out for their smart design and innovative technologies focused on ease of use and performance:
-
Ultra-fast heating: Most Ooni ovens reach temperature in 15–20 minutes. Thanks to efficient insulation and well-designed burners, they hit up to 500 °C, the ideal heat for authentic pizza. This extreme heat cooks a thin crust in just one minute while perfectly browning toppings—the secret to true Neapolitan pizza.
-
Advanced burners & fuel options: Whether you crave smoky wood-fired flavor or the convenience of gas, Ooni has you covered. Multi-fuel technology lets you switch between wood, charcoal, and gas for ultimate flexibility. Wood-fired for traditional aromas, gas for consistent heat and easier cleanup. The Ooni Karu 2 even has an improved gas burner that’s ~36% more efficient. Gas models like the Koda 2 Pro and Koda 2 Max feature powerful L-shaped burners for even heating.
-
Portable & ready to use: All Ooni ovens are designed with mobility in mind. They are lightweight (some as little as ~10 kg), many with foldable legs and compact size. Place your Ooni on a table, connect the fuel, and you’re ready—no complex assembly or chimney needed. Perfect for backyard, park, or even vacation.
-
Smart temperature control: Ooni’s latest generation comes with digital innovations. The Ooni Karu 2 Pro has a digital display (Temperature Hub) that shows oven temperature and connects via Bluetooth to the Ooni app. The large Koda 2 Max gas oven also includes a digital thermometer hub and two probe thermometers for precise cooking. The electric Ooni Volt 2 features an adjustable thermostat, built-in timer, and Boost function to quickly reheat the pizza stone between pizzas. These features make baking easier, even for beginners.
-
Thoughtful design: Ooni ovens combine durability with practical details. Housings are made of stainless steel or strong carbon steel with heat-resistant powder coating. Insulated walls and thick cordierite pizza stones (10–15 mm) retain heat for stable baking. Many models (e.g., Karu series) have a glass door with special coating or airflow (ClearView/ViewFlame) to prevent soot buildup, letting you monitor pizzas without heat loss. The Karu 2 Pro features a built-in thermometer for instant oven feedback. Safety details like the Cool-touch SureGrab™ handle are standard. Every element of Ooni is designed for the ultimate pizza experience.
Which Ooni Model is Right for You?
Ooni has something for everyone. Below is a brief overview of the models and their strengths, so you can easily compare:
Ooni Koda 2 (Gas)
These sleek gas ovens come in three sizes. The Koda 2 is compact and ready to use—simply unfold the legs, connect to a propane tank, and start baking. The larger Koda 2 Max offers more capacity (for 16″ pizzas or multiple dishes) and an L-shaped flame for even oven-floor heating. Both are loved for speed and ease—no smoke, no fuss, just real stone-baked pizza in 60 seconds. Perfect for convenience, e.g., on terraces or camping. The Koda 2 Max features a cooking surface of 60 cm and two independently controlled burners.
Ooni Karu 2 (Multi-fuel)
The Karu series is the all-rounder of pizza ovens. Fire with wood or charcoal for traditional aroma, or switch to gas for speed and clean cooking. The Karu 2 (successor to Karu 12G) has a glass door and improved gas performance, while the Karu 2 Pro (also known as Karu 16) offers a 16″ cooking surface, perfect for large pizzas, a whole chicken, or bread. With the included digital temperature hub, track the oven temperature on the display or smartphone. Wood, charcoal, or gas—Karu 2 Pro masters them all with smart airflow and a ClearView door to monitor baking. Recommended for serious home cooks and pizza enthusiasts seeking top performance. Optional gas burner adds convenience for daily use. Both Karu models feature excellent heat insulation and innovative features. Choose Karu for maximum flexibility—from low & slow charcoal cooking to blazing hot gas baking, these ovens do it all.
Ooni Volt 2 (Electric)
No backyard? No gas? No problem. The Ooni Volt 2 (successor to Ooni Volt 12) is an electric pizza oven for indoor and outdoor use. Plug it in, and in ~20 minutes, it reaches 450 °C. Its Boost function quickly reheats the stone between pizzas, ideal for multiple pies in a row. With built-in timer and adjustable heat, the Volt is beginner-friendly, yet powerful: bake a 30 cm stone pizza in 90 seconds. Perfect for anyone who wants indoor pizza baking without sacrificing quality.
