Product Overview

I recently had the opportunity to review the Ooni Koda 16 Gas Pizza Oven. As someone who loves pizza and has tried a lot of different ovens, I was excited to give this one a try.

The Ooni Koda 16 Gas Pizza Oven is made from cast iron, giving it a very sturdy and durable feel. The powder coated carbon steel shell offers great heat retention, and combined with the efficiency of using gas, you can cook up delicious pizzas in no time. Its also very easy to assemble simply unfold the legs, insert the pizza stone baking board, connect up to a gas tank, and youre ready to go! It also features instant gas ignition so you can start cooking your favorite pizzas quickly.

The oven can reach temperatures of up to 950 F twice that of a normal domestic oven! This means that you can cook authentic stone baked pizzas in just 60 seconds. This makes it perfect for entertaining or for those days when you just want to whip up a quick pizza for dinner. Plus, with its compact size and weighing in at just 40.1 pounds, its easy to transport if needed.

In addition to pizza, I was also able to use the oven to roast some meat, fish or vegetables. With one of the Ooni cast iron cooking accessories sold separately , the Koda 16 becomes more than just a pizza maker! And because it is so efficient, it uses minimal gas so you dont have to worry about running out too quickly.

Overall, I would highly recommend this oven if youre looking for an efficient and reliable way to make delicious pizzas quickly. Whether youre entertaining guests or wanting an easy dinner solution on busy nights, this is definitely worth checking out!
