I actually have also had a brick pizza oven for about 10 years but was finding it difficult to source good wood and tired of the hour long heat up time. The difference with the Koda 2 was night and day! On demand fuel, relatively short heat up, great heat distribution making for a great cook. Now, homemade pizza is something that I can do anytime and just for the two of us if we want.
Really impressed with the new heat distribution. Had a different oven before but the first results in this new koda2 are very satisfactory. I like the extra space and bigger stone size. I am not necessarily doing bigger pizzas but I like the space for movement. Worth the upgrade.
I've used the stove twice now- first on Mother's Day, then for a birthday. It's been great! I have about 12 pizzas under my belt now. Every pizza was charred on one side for the first party, but still tasty. After a couple of weeks to think about things, all pizzas came out perfectly for the second outing. Pizza in 90 seconds!
