EFFORTLESSLY EASY TO USE - Take your oven anywhere in a comfortable and simple way. The Neo outdoor pizza oven can be easily transported thanks to its portable function and an innovative design with non-slip collapsible legs. A feature that also allows an easy assembly and storage. In any case, much like the charcoal vs gas BBQ debate, many people prefer the cleaner taste of food that hasn’t been ‘smoked.’ The Ooni Karu 12 is one of Ooni's most versatile small pizza ovens, giving you a complete set of options in terms of fuel and cooking experience. Ooni Koda 12 is compatible with large propane tanks (normally used with barbecues), as well as 1lb propane tanks along with a suitable adaptor.

What is the best brand of pizza oven?
Pizza ovens saw a meteoric rise in popularity as we all retreated into our gardens during the Covid-19 pandemic. Their popularity, including that of Ooni pizza ovens, shows no signs of waning. For the last few years, most of Ooni's shiny pizza ovens have been sold out online for weeks at a time. Some newer models of gas oven pizzas have a ‘gas assist’ mode, which retains all the appeal and amazing flavour of a pizza cooked in a wood-fired oven, but with the convenience of gas heating. This way, you don’t have to stand by your pizza oven tending to the wood fire if you don’t want to – you can get started with the cooking straight away. The following companies all sell gas-powered outdoor pizza ovens. Some of them also sell wood-fired or a hybrid of the two.Temperature: To cook the best pizzas, you’ll need an oven that can reach a minimum of 380 degrees. This is the lowest end of the optimum temperature range, as some ovens on our list can reach up to 500 degrees. Some come with a gauge, too. This will let you know when the pizza oven is heated and ready to cook. Some (like the Gozney Dome) have a digital thermometer, while others (like one of our winners, the Gozney Roccbox) have a more traditional gauge. Superior design precedes superior performance in this professional-grade oven made for the common cook There's no door on this oven, as gas fire is so consistent that there's no need to incubate the heat that the flames gives out. Top-notch cooking performance, output power, and versatility, all at a fraction of the cost of direct competitors
We updated this article in October to add a newly tried and tested pizza oven and make sure all the prices are up to date. Read on to find out everything you need to know about the Ooni pizza ovens available, the differences between them, and some of our key insights on each model.

This is the smallest Ooni pizza oven and it weighs less than 10kg, so it may appeal to those seeking to take their pizza oven out and about. Bear in mind you'll also need to transport your gas canister, though. GAS FUELLED FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY - Powered by the most efficient source of energy available the Neo outdoor pizza oven uses gas fuel. Featuring adjustable temperature function for convenience when cooking recipes that require a lower or constant temperature.Storage: consider the space you have available. The smallest pizza ovens we've tested are the BBQ-top models, which thanks to their small, boxy size, can easily be stored in a garage, shed or even inside somewhere. A number of the models on this list have easy foldaway legs, meaning they too will take up very little room when not in use. Some of the larger models we've tested will need to be kept outside in all weathers, in this case, a cover is an absolute must. Lastly, if you’re feeding a lot of people, look for a larger cooking area. Most of the ovens on our list have room to accommodate a 30cm or 12inch pizza. Our joint winner, the Witt Etna Rotante, even has space for 40.5cm (16-inch) pizzas. Once the oven's burning you can gradually fill the hopper up, as it automatically regulates the flow of fuel onto the grate to avoid smothering the flames.

The BakerStone is versatile, but it's not the easiest oven to transport. Dismantling it into sections may help improve portability. However, we feel this bulky, 48-pound oven is better off as the focal point of an outdoor kitchen than as a companion for car camping. It is capable of reaching the necessary temperatures to cook Neapolitan-style pizza, but the bulk and design of the firebox equate to a long preheating time. However, once it reaches the desired temperature, this price-pointed oven will bake just as well, if not better, than other top models on the market.We offer top-of-the-line gas pizza ovens from leading brands in the industry. Gas-powered ovens are gaining popularity for their user-friendly nature. Many of these ovens are highly portable, making them ideal for enjoying pizza on the go.

Gas pizza ovens are ready to use much sooner than wood-fuelled, something you should consider if you have a few pizzas to make. Built-in Flame Safety Device (FSD) will automatically cut off the gas supply to Ooni Koda 12 if the flame is extinguished while the gas supply is on

We tested this pizza oven using wood, charcoal and gas to compare how it cooks with each fuel type. Read our review of the Ooni Karu 12 . Safety: Pizzas require incredibly high temperatures to cook so we looked for excellent insulation and safety features to make using the pizza oven easy to use. High-value products tend to come with a hefty price tag. The Roccbox is no exception. While the superb performance can justify the price, this pizza oven — including the gas and wood burners — is nearly double the cost of its direct competitors. Similarly, the oven itself is rather hefty. Despite its small footprint, this unit tips the scales at 44 pounds, easily making it one of the heaviest ovens in our lineup. That said, the heavy weight is due to unparalleled insulation, which drives the superior performance of the Roccbox — a portable pizza oven to make a Pizzaiuolo proud. To cook the best pizzas it is important that the oven can reach a high enough temperature. The optimum temperature to cook a pizza is at least 400C. Heat creates the perfect pizza crust and melted cheese consistency. Gas or Wood Fuel type: some will be gas-fuelled, others need wood, or it may be a multi-fuel. Indoor pizza ovens plug into the mains so don't need any other means of generating heat.
