I have a large wood fired oven but it is a load of time to heat it to make one pizza. The ooni was the solution however to get it up to heat with wood took about an hour and i had to constantly feed more wood in. I used a lot. I had an easier experience with gas but that didn’t have the fun of the wood. I’m happy with it overall though.
I upgraded from original Kuru and found it’s so much better. First is glass door, no more putting down fiddly to close especially if any food finds its way onto the edge. Fuel basket larger less refill larger wood chunks. Colour looks so much better still looks brand new were I found the stainless discoloured quickly. Also purchased Gas fitting as a backup not used yet but a minute to fit if required. Lastly and the best part! Don’t know why but every Pizza I have made since upgrade has come out wonderful, No more sticking, burnt due to no window, catching on oven door edge.
The oven is easy to store, clean, and put together. It is not so easy to get the temp up to 900, but with practice . . . . . . overall very happy with my package.
Amazing results on tonight’s first time use of the Karu 2 pizza oven. I have made many pizza’s in my life using my oven but this is on a different level. In 40 seconds I have baked a thin crispy pizza. I have invested in a perforated pizza peel and Ooni’s untreated logs. The smell from the oven is amazing when burning these logs. They are cut to size to fit the oven and no chemical smells. Like a logburner sauna. Very pleased with this investment to take my pizzas to another level.
