Restaurant quality pizzas every time
on July 30, 2023
Posted by: Keith M.
Why didn’t I get one of these sooner!!
I used to try making homemade pizzas in the oven! They were ok but then I took the plunge and bought an Ooni.
Now my pizzas are restaurant quality! The results are amazing every time.
I also took the decision to buy the gas adapter. Whilst wood is marginally better, I’d highly recommend getting the gas adapter as it makes life much easier if you’re making a lot of pizzas for friends etc.
Really happy with my purchase.

Working with the 12G ooni multi.
on July 29, 2023
Posted by: Rolf B.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ooni pizza oven 12G. Makes you pizza taste like a pro. Only setback is it takes more than 15 minutes to heat up. "460 degrees" easy takes up to 30 minutes till 40 minutes. Tried with wood and gas. Same times if you keep on adding wood. If someone has some tips for me how to speed up the time and heat. I'm all ears. Haven't managed to get it to 500 degrees yet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect. Need to have some experience about how to keep the warming inside during the baking, but after it was perfect.

Would Use 3x Times a Day if I Could!

Absolutely adore my Karu 12G. From the moment you open the packaging and assemble it (which is thankfully very straightforward) on an aesthetic level it just looks beautiful, and the instructions for the first cook are very straightforward to follow.
Firing up the unit is so satisfying; have only used wood and wax-coated natural firefighters so far and it starts up remarkably easily. Only thing I’d say is you do need a lot more kindling than what the instruction manual suggests (and you really need to keep on top of stoking it or the oven temperature does drop off again quite quickly). It’s so hypnotic watching the oven heat up inside though; the flames are beautiful and almost appear to move in slow motion.
First cook was a slight disaster as I hadn’t coated the peel with enough flour to enable detachment, so the pizza and toppings ended up going onto the stone which was difficult to scrape off/remove. Thankfully the second one that went in was better and tasted delicious. The transparent front on the 12G is a great addition and it’s so satisfying to see the pizza baking away so quickly. I’ve now completed 3x separate bakes and each one gets better with the next (top tip - semolina works wonderful for easy peel to stone transfer).
Cleaning afterwards is relatively straightforward. As you can imagine the main mess comes from the spot generated, but the fuel section contains remarkably debris (given how hot the oven runs at) so it’s not a big job. I also bought the cover to come with it which I’d highly recommend, makes the oven a lot easier to carry and protects it from the elements if being stored outside.
Overall it was the best decision I’ve made buying my Ooni, and I think the additional upgrades on the 12G are well worth the extra money. Could not recommend highly enough!

A bit too compact
on July 29, 2023
Posted by: Jesper P.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You really need to figure out how and when to add wood. The pizza will burn or be undercooked if everything isn't perfect.
In retrospect i would have bought the karu 16 because the added space and more versatility.
