Only use it once at
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: Dale M.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only use it once at the moment but it does what it's supposed to do and maintain a constant temperature

Slower than solid fuel but clean and simple

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Difficult/slow to get up to temperature. Definitely a learning curve relative to wood or charcoal in the Karu 2. But very clean and easy to use.

Igniter is unreliable.
on May 23, 2025

The ignition system might work 10% of the time, but you're better off using a match or a lighter. If you choose to use the piezoelectric igniter, follow the manufacturer's instructions and warnings to avoid explosions and singed eyebrows.
Otherwise, the propane conversion kit works well. Crank it up full blast to get the pizza stone hot, then turn it down to a lower setting to cook your pie. Your crust will be properly baked without burning the toppings.

Game changer. I stopped using
on May 28, 2025

Game changer. I stopped using my Karu for a while because I got lazy about burning wood. I still prefer wood, of course, but this is so easy!!! I’m still learning to control the heat for other foods - didn’t nail my tomahawk - but I know I’ll figure it out. Very happy with this addition!

Karu questions
on June 3, 2025
Posted by: Brad M.
I have a Koda 12 that I have used for the last few years. The burner lights easily and the pizza stone heats very well. Since I bought a Karu and attached the propane burner, it's a real pain in the butt to light the oven, and the stone doesn't get nearly as hot. It's a mystery to me why this is the case, but I need some suggestions. Thank you, Brad Myers

Works kinda

The hose was kinked due to packaging. Once I was able to remove the kinks the burner would not stay lit. It often would just stop for no reason. Very frustrating

Heats up much faster

We love the gas burner! It makes the oven more efficient and although we lose the smoky flavor from the wood. It is a much cleaner burn for the oven clean up

Burner Won’t Light
on June 15, 2025
Posted by: Eric M.
When you can get the burner on, it’s great. Much easier to get up to the appropriate heat than wood. The heat is also significantly more consistent with this argument. The biggest problem is the starter just won’t light the fire. You hear the click and there’s no spark. I went through all of the troubleshooting steps and nothing. I wouldn’t recommend the attachment.
