A 320 to 950°F operating range and an 18-inch-plus cooking surface are what Ooni specifies.
Compared with the first-generation Koda 16, the G2 tapered burner is designed to cut stone-temperature variation and bring the stone back up faster.
Ambient and food-probe readings appear on the front Ooni Connect hub, which can also send alerts to the Ooni app.
This second-generation gas oven has plenty of room, a tapered burner and a connected temperature hub, with enough control to handle quick and slower pizza styles alike.

The catch
Plan on a sturdy outdoor table and far more storage space than a 12-inch portable oven takes, because this 18-inch body is large.
