Pizza Ovens - talk to me!

[Haggisman]

With summer coming up, and loving A) pizza, and B) eating outside, we're considering grabbing one of those portable pizza ovens which seem to have become popular the last couple of years.

Ideally we'd be wanting gas as it's going to be quicker & easier so we'll use it more often.

So far it seems a toss up between the Ooni Koda 12 and the Gozney Roccbox, with the Gozney seeming slightly better, but at 1/3rd more expensive.

Alternatively, how good are the pizza oven conversion kits you can get for your BBQ? We have a Weber kettle for which there seem to be quite a few options - significantly cheaper, but obviously this would be wood/charcoal fired and possibly not as good?

I'd go for the Ooni Koda 12. I got one last year and it was a real hit during the summer. I just got mine out of the shed yesterday in fact so will be dusting him off shortly and giving him a go!

I couldn't find one? There's the BBQ thread and the Uuni 3 thread, but no general pizza oven one?

ooni surcharge seems large to me - earlier discussion V have a read in thread
dilema is that oven gives good/convenient results for most of the UK weather, and, it multi-tasks.

Got an upgrade to my pizza oven just before the royal funeral. Wasn't intending to get one, but hey ho...

Tesco had the ottimo 12" Gas Pizza oven on sale (end of season type thing) for £125 and we had some vouchers too. Sub £100 pizza oven? Yes please. It's a complete clone of the Koda tbh. Only thing I've had to do is buy a longer gas hose. It came with a 60cm hose which was not long enough for me. Got a longer gas hose from a local supplier for ~£5 for 1.2m. Spent a few days locating a place that would sell me a gas bottle, surprisingly large number of places nearby will only do refills now which is awkward.

Didn't come with an instruction book. Dropped the company an email late saturday night, received a response in my inbox with a digital copy at 8:30 sunday morning. Impressive customer service.

Do you want to point us in the right direction, as I've looked and can't find one?

I love my koda 12 and only make 10-11 inch pizzas, but wish I had got the larger one for extra room

See post above. I know it's titled Ooni but it's everything pizza.

Cheers, I'll take a look through - that Ottimo looks interesting, £200 at a few places atm

Cheers - I've renamed it
