- Owner rating (4.5) edges below the Arc's, though from far more reviews
“The Koda 2 Pro is a monster of an oven. I can't overstate how intense the heat from the dual burners is.”— Kevin Hansen, Pala Pizza Ovens
Pro review “The improved design of this second generation oven (released May 2025) maintains steadier temperatures with less fiddling than any other pizza oven I’ve tested.”— Justin Park, Men's Journal
FAQ
Who is the Ooni Koda 2 Pro for?
You want the most cooking space at the $799 sweet spot — an 18-inch chamber and dual-zone burners; temperature reads via the Bluetooth hub, and the finish is a notch below Gozney's.
What do owners say about the Ooni Koda 2 Pro?
4.5★ across 524 owner ratings (Ooni, read 2026-10-16).
What is the warranty on the Ooni Koda 2 Pro?
1 yr → 5 yr if registered within 60 days
Record
- — The card's owner rating now shows Ooni's own 4.5 across 524 alone; it had been blending in an 18-rating Amazon read and showing 542.
- — Warranty read verbatim off ooni.com: one year standard, five if registered within 60 days, across the whole Koda line. Same conditional structure as Gozney's, which makes registration the real differentiator in this category rather than the term.
- — Held a fire report rather than publish it. One owner reports the oven catching fire on first use and needing an extinguisher, and says neither Ooni nor Amazon honoured a refund or replacement. A single account is not a pattern and it is too serious to print as one, so it is recorded with a trigger to re-open if a second appears.
- — Kept Ooni's own brand-page rating as the primary — 4.5 across 356 — with the Amazon figure of 4.5 across 18 as corroboration. That inverts our usual independent-over-brand preference, and it is deliberate: the two agree on the average and the brand base is twenty times deeper. The card labels which is which.

✓ Safety: no active recall — Gas appliance — use outdoors only, keep clearance from walls/overhangs, and shut off the propane at the tank after cooking. No CPSC recall for any Ooni product (recall API checked 2026-10-25). Owner reports, not a recall: two of the three written critical reviews on its Amazon listing (39 ratings, read 2026-10-25) are safety reports — a verified buyer whose oven 'caught on fire the very first time I used it' and needed an extinguisher (September 2025), and an unverified buyer reporting burns, blaming 'little or no insulation' (September 2026).
