Karu 2 Pro - 16" Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven - Set with Gas Burner

Ooni Karu 2 Pro Set with Gas Burner. 16-inch multi-fuel oven and Karu gas burner in one package.

Ooni Karu 2 Pro Set is the 16-inch multi-fuel pizza oven Karu 2 Pro bundled with the matching Ooni gas burner. Both together, at a package price. Not a pure gas oven, not an electric model, not a single product without a gas burner.

Ooni Karu 2 Pro Set with Gas Burner is the oven package for pizza lovers who don't want to choose between wood and gas when buying. The set includes the 16-inch Karu 2 Pro and an Ooni gas burner that clips into the back of the oven. From the outside, the Karu 2 Pro looks like a gas Koda; with the gas burner removed, wood or charcoal can be lit in the combustion chamber. After 15 to 20 minutes, the cordierite stone reaches 500 degrees Celsius. A Neapolitan pizza takes about sixty seconds in this oven, with a crust that is smoky or clean and fruity depending on the fuel.

Three Fuels, One Oven

The Karu 2 Pro is designed for wood and charcoal — the combustion chamber is optimized for solid fuel. The included gas burner replaces the back wall and transforms the oven into a pure propane pizza oven. The change is tool-free and takes only a few minutes. For those who want to use the oven with both wood and gas, this set is the direct entry point — without having to buy the gas burner separately later.

The 16-inch baking surface corresponds to a 40-centimeter pizza diameter. The glass window in the oven door is new compared to the Karu 16 and allows you to keep an eye on the pizza while baking without opening the door. The cordierite stone and the powder-coated steel casing are designed for permanent outdoor use.

From Lighting to the First Pizza

With wood and charcoal, the Karu 2 Pro requires a little more attention than a pure gas oven. After heating to 500 degrees, the temperature drops faster as soon as the oven door is opened — a wood fire works more reactively than a gas flame. If you put a pizza in, you take it out after 50 to 70 seconds, add wood, and wait two minutes for the temperature to rise again. In gas mode with the included burner, the Karu 2 Pro behaves like a gas Koda — it lights with a piezo, remains thermally stable, and requires no attention between pizzas.

From experience: For wood operation, use small, dry hardwood — Ooni hardwood pellets or split beech wood the length of a thumb. Wet wood produces smoke, but no heat. If you don't want to wait five minutes for the fire to get going, support the start with an Ooni firelighter. The change between fuel types can be well distributed across weekdays: gas in the evening after work, wood on Saturdays.

First limitation: Multi-fuel means multi-effort. If you spontaneously want to bake a pizza in the evening without deciding on the fuel type beforehand, a pure gas Koda involves fewer detours. The set is worthwhile for people who actively want to use the variety.

Second limitation: Exclusively outdoor. Wood and charcoal combustion produces carbon monoxide and should not be used indoors. The oven must stand on a non-combustible surface, with a distance to walls and roofs.

Ooni — from Edinburgh to the Pizza Brand

Ooni was founded in Edinburgh in 2012 by Kristian Tapaninaho and Darina Garland, initially under the name Uuni. The first oven was a wood pellet-powered model, financed via Kickstarter. From this beginning with a single fuel, today's range has developed — specialized gas and pellet ovens on one side, the multi-fuel Karu series on the other.

The Karu 2 Pro is the answer for pizza lovers who don't want to choose between wood and gas. The set bundles the oven with the gas burner and removes the decision of whether the burner will be purchased later right from the start.

The Complete Starter Package for the Multi-Fuel World

The Karu 2 Pro Set is the package for pizza lovers who know they want to bake both wood-fired and gas-fired pizza — and want to save themselves the hassle of ordering a second time. If you are undecided at the time of purchase, start with the pure Karu 2 Pro and upgrade if necessary with the Karu 16 Gas Burner. The set is for everyone who wants to skip this consideration.

Matching the Karu 2 Pro Set are the Karu 16 Cover for rain and dust and the Ooni Modular Table Large as a base. For dough, the Halo Pro Spiral Mixer Dough Machine is recommended as soon as three or more dough balls are to be made on a Saturday. As a gift, the Karu Set is for someone who sees pizza as a long-term project — from the first Margherita to wood-fired pizza with homemade dough.

A pizza oven set for anyone who knows at the first purchase that they will try both fuel types.
