Read our honest pizza oven reviews…

Because we represent various brands, we aim to offer impartial advice, which is based around the customer’s requirements. These pizza oven reviews should help you decide which is the best oven for your needs. To help you make an informed decision about the best pizza oven for you, we have looked at every oven we sell in every category (portable ovens, table-top ovens and ovens with stands).

These pizza ovens have been graded based on four key criteria as shown below.

1. Build quality

The way the pizza oven is made and the strength of the materials, which are used in the oven’s construction.

2. Performance

Speed, efficiency and ability of the oven to deliver a high quality pizza, as well as its ease of use.

3. Aesthetics

How the oven looks, both once it comes out of the box and also after it has been used.

4. Versatility

The pizza oven’s ability to cook things other than pizza, for example, frying, baking and roasting.

Portable Pizza Ovens

Ooni Koda 12 Gas Pizza Oven

Ooni Koda 12 Gas Pizza Oven

Build quality ****

Performance ***

Aesthetics ***

Versatility **

The Ooni Koda 12 runs purely on gas and has the small ‘letterbox’ opening, so it will only cook thin food. It cooks a great 12″ pizza but you won’t get that authentic wood fired taste.

Our Star Rating: 3.5/5

A good all round lightweight pizza oven, which will cook everything from a pizza to a roast chicken due to its domed cooking chamber. Fulled by kiln dried hardwood logs.

The larger 16″ version of the very successful Ooni Koda 12. The Koda 16 is bigger and therefore far more versatile than its baby brother.

Build quality ****

Versatility ***

The Fyra 12 is Ooni’s modern take on the original Ooni pellet oven. Less popular than the Koda or Karu, the Fyra uses wood pellets which aren’t our favourite fuel source

Our Star Rating: 3.5/5

Ooni Karu 12 multi fuel pizza oven

Ooni Karu 12 Wood Pellet Pizza Oven

Build quality ****

Performance ***

Versatility ***

Our favourite Ooni oven! The Ooni Karu 12 burns small pieces of wood, so sourcing fuel is relatively easy. Let down only by its size which restricts versatility.

Our Star Rating: 3.5/5

The next category is table-top pizza ovens. These ovens are made so you can place them on a table or pre-built area such as an outdoor kitchen.
