Gozney Dome Gen 2 or Ooni Karu 2 Pro?

Both burn wood, charcoal or gas, both take pizzas up to 16 inches and both reach 500 °C according to their makers. They are still very different ovens, and the difference is mostly mass.

The Gozney Dome Gen 2 weighs 62 kilos and measures 82.6 x 65.2 x 98.6 cm. It has a removable 30 mm cordierite stone, and it also takes two 10 inch pizzas side by side. A stand is a separate purchase, and this is an oven that stays where you put it. Gozney states no heat-up time.

The Ooni Karu 2 Pro weighs 28.4 kilos and measures 50 x 83 x 83 cm. It is double-wall insulated, has a glass door and a built-in digital thermometer, and according to Ooni heats up in about 15 minutes. Baking on gas takes a separately sold burner. The Karu 2 Pro is not an oven you move on a whim either, but it weighs less than half as much as the Dome.

Pick the Karu 2 Pro if you want to bake big over wood in an oven whose maker states a heat-up time and fits a thermometer, and you want less weight to set down. Pick the Dome if you have a permanent spot in the garden, sometimes want to bake two pizzas at once, and want a 30 mm stone.
