Looking for the best pizza oven in the UK? This guide compares seven pizza ovens sold on Amazon UK, from £239 to £599, across gas, multi-fuel and electric models. A good home pizza oven gets far hotter than a kitchen oven: the gas and wood ovens below are listed with a maximum of roughly 500 to 510°C, and the makers say pizza can cook in about 60 seconds. That speed is what gives a Neapolitan-style pizza its blistered crust, and it is why a dedicated oven can beat a domestic one for pizza.

The challenge is choosing between fuel types, sizes and price points. This guide explains which features matter for a British garden, balcony or kitchen, and flags what to check before you buy.

Best pizza ovens UK compared: price, rating, fuel and size

*Amazon shows the same 4.4 rating from 58 ratings on the Koda 16 and Koda 2 Pro listings, which look like size options on one listing, so the score may not reflect either model alone. Weights, sizes and fuel types are taken from each Amazon UK listing. Prices are the main offer shown on Amazon UK at the time; the Ninja Artisan (£269.99) and Gozney Roccbox (£349.00) offers were from third-party sellers, and Amazon’s own offer for the Ninja Artisan was £274.97.

Under £300: the Ooni Koda 12 (£239.00), the Ninja Artisan (£269.99) and the Ooni Karu 12 (£299.00) are the three lowest-priced ovens in this guide. £300 to £500: the Gozney Roccbox (£349.00), the Ooni Koda 16 (£399.20) and the Ooni Volt 2 (£498.99). Over £500: the Ooni Koda 2 Pro (£599.00). Prices were the main Amazon UK offers on 20 October 2026.

How we chose these pizza ovens

This is a research-based shortlist. Everything below comes from Amazon UK listings, including the manufacturers’ descriptions on those pages, checked on 20 October 2026.

We started with Amazon UK, the place most British buyers will actually shop, and looked at gas, multi-fuel and electric pizza ovens from established brands that make ovens designed for home use. We compared each listing’s stated specifications, the manufacturer’s own claims on that page, and the customer rating and number of ratings shown at the time, and we included a range of prices from £239 to £599.

Figures such as maximum temperature, heat-up time and cooking time are the manufacturer’s claims as they appear on Amazon, and different brands measure them differently, so they are not directly comparable between brands. Ratings also move over time, and a high score from a small number of reviews, which applies to the Gozney Roccbox and Ooni Volt 2 here, tells you less than a high score from over a thousand, as with the Ooni Karu 12. These are the ovens we compared on Amazon UK, not every oven on sale. We show the number of ratings next to every score, because a rating from a handful of reviews counts for little. We will update this guide when prices, ratings or availability change.

Ooni Koda 12: cheapest gas oven here

Price: £239.00  |  Amazon rating: 4.6 from 412 ratings

The Koda 12 is the cheapest oven here from Ooni and the simplest to run. The listing describes a gas oven that is ready to attach to a gas bottle out of the box, with a 37 mbar regulator and hose included. Ooni says it reaches 500°C (about 930°F) in 20 minutes and cooks a 12-inch pizza in 60 seconds. It has folding legs, weighs about 9kg and measures 62 x 39 x 29cm, which makes it easier to move around a garden. It is described as suited to beginners, and the listing also mentions roasting vegetables, fish and meat.

Why choose it: the lowest price of the gas ovens here, from a specialist brand, with the largest number of ratings of the gas models here and a simple dial control that Ooni describes as suited to beginners.

Things to check: it takes 12-inch pizzas, so it is on the small side for larger gatherings, and it needs a suitable gas bottle; the listing says it is suitable only for a 37 mbar regulator and hose. The listing’s headline says it reaches 500°C in 15 minutes while the description says 20 minutes, so treat the heat-up time as an estimate. The listing describes a voluntary 1-year manufacturer’s warranty, extended to 5 years if you register within 60 days of purchase. You will also need a pizza peel, which is not included in the box. Check your lease or building rules before using a gas oven on a balcony.

Ooni Karu 12: wood and charcoal oven with the most ratings

Price: £299.00  |  Amazon rating: 4.7 from 1,453 ratings

The Karu 12 ships ready for wood or charcoal, and the listing says gas burners are optionally available, so gas needs a separate Ooni gas burner attachment. It is listed as heating to 500°C in 15 minutes and cooking pizza in 60 seconds, and it has a pizza stone and a stainless steel housing. The listing gives 57 x 40 x 34cm (check the assembled height with the chimney fitted) and 12kg, so it is portable but heavier than the Koda 12.

Why choose it: an oven for people who want the flavour of a live fire, with the biggest rating sample in this guide.

Things to check: the listing title says “Wood and Gas Fired”, but gas needs a separate Ooni gas burner attachment that is not in the box, so budget for it if you want gas. You will also need a pizza peel, and cooking over wood or charcoal takes more effort than turning a gas dial, and you need to buy and store fuel.

Gozney Roccbox: compact stone-floor gas oven

Price: £349.00  |  Amazon rating: 4.7 from 37 ratings

Gozney describes the Roccbox as the original stone-floor portable pizza oven. The listing says it cooks a 12-inch pizza in 60 seconds at 950°F (about 510°C), with a compact, low-profile design for home, garden or camping use, and a wood burner attachment that is optional. It is also described as capable of searing steaks at high temperatures. The listing gives the weight as 21kg.

Why choose it: a compact oven from a well-known brand, built around a stone floor and an optional wood burner if you want to add live fire later.

Things to check: at 21kg it is considerably heavier than the Ooni Koda 12 and Karu 12, and only 37 ratings were showing, so the 4.7 score is based on limited feedback. The listing says it makes 12-inch pizzas and gives no heat-up time, so check the manufacturer’s page for that.

Ninja Artisan: electric pizza oven with air-fry and bake modes

Price: £269.99  |  Amazon rating: 4.7 from 104 ratings

The Ninja Artisan is the only oven here that doubles as an air fryer. The listing describes four functions (pizza, bake, air fry and prove), electric heat up to 370°C with no flame, and presets for Artisan, Thin Crust, New York, Pan and Custom pizza. Ninja says it cooks a 12-inch pizza in 3 minutes or less, not including pre-heat time at 370°C. It includes a 12 x 12 inch pizza stone, a baking tray, a perforated peel and an air fry basket. It draws 1,760 watts, weighs 11.9kg and measures about 59 x 42 x 32cm. Ninja offers a free 2-year guarantee when you register.

Why choose it: no gas bottle or fuel to buy, a view window with an interior light, and extra uses beyond pizza.

Things to check: its stated maximum of 370°C is lower than the roughly 500°C listed for the gas ovens, so pizza will not cook as quickly. It needs a mains socket, so check you have one where you plan to use it. The listing sells it as an outdoor oven that is balcony and patio friendly; check Ninja’s manual before using it anywhere else, and keep the oven and its cable dry.

Ooni Koda 16: larger 16-inch gas pizza oven

Price: £399.20  |  Amazon rating: 4.4 from 58 ratings (the same score appears on the Koda 2 Pro listing)

The Koda 16 is the larger version of the Koda 12. The listing says it can cook 16-inch pizzas in 60 seconds, reach up to 500°C (about 930°F) in 20 minutes, and fit a large meat joint or a bread loaf. It has an L-shaped burner that Ooni says gives more even heat distribution, folding legs and a regulator and gas hose already connected. It weighs 18.2kg and measures 64 x 59 x 37cm.

Why choose it: a bigger cooking area for larger pizzas and family-sized meals, with the same simple gas set-up as the Koda 12.

Things to check: at 18.2kg it is about twice the weight of the Koda 12, and it needs more space to store. The listing shows this is the first-generation Koda 16, and Amazon shows the same 4.4 from 58 ratings for the Koda 2 Pro, so the score may not reflect this model alone.

Ooni Volt 2: electric indoor pizza oven

Price: £498.99  |  Amazon rating: 4.7 from 7 ratings

The Volt 2 is Ooni’s electric countertop oven, listed for cooking 12-inch pizzas indoors. The listing describes an adaptive “Pizza Intelligence” control system that adjusts temperature in real time, a digital interface with one-touch presets, and a large temperature range that also suits baking and roasting. It draws 1,600 watts and weighs 18kg.

Why choose it: a way to make pizza in the kitchen all year round with no gas or live fire, from a pizza specialist.

Things to check: only 7 ratings were showing, so the 4.7 score tells you little yet. At £498.99 it costs more than the Koda 16 and the Koda 12, and at 18kg it is a hefty countertop appliance, so measure the space you have. Ooni positions it for indoor use only.

Ooni Koda 2 Pro: biggest and most expensive gas pizza oven here

Price: £599.00  |  Amazon rating: 4.4 from 58 ratings (the same score appears on the Koda 16 listing)

The Koda 2 Pro is the largest and most expensive oven in this guide. The listing describes G2 Gas Technology with a tapered flame burner that Ooni says gives more even heat than the Koda 16 (Ooni’s listing quotes a “420%” improvement, which is the manufacturer’s own claim), a temperature range from 160°C to 500°C, and a Bluetooth Ooni Connect Digital Temperature Hub that sends ambient and food-probe readings to your phone (the hub and a food probe are in the box). It has an 18-inch-plus cooking area with a stone that is 21 inches at the front and 18 inches at the rear, pyrolytic cleaning, and roughly 30% more capacity than its predecessor. It weighs 27.14kg.

Why choose it: the most cooking space and the most control features of the ovens here, including a wide temperature range for more than pizza.

Things to check: at £599 it is more than twice the price of the Koda 12 and at 27.14kg it is the heaviest oven on the list, so it is better suited to a permanent spot than to carrying around. Amazon shows the same 4.4 from 58 ratings for the Koda 16, so the score may not reflect this model alone. You will need a pizza peel, as Ooni ovens do not include one.

How to choose a pizza oven in the UK

Gas, wood or electric pizza oven?

Gas ovens such as the Ooni Koda 12, Koda 16 and Koda 2 Pro are the simplest to use: you attach a gas bottle, turn a dial and wait for the oven to heat. Wood and charcoal ovens such as the Ooni Karu 12 give a live-fire flavour but take more effort and need a supply of fuel. Electric ovens such as the Ninja Artisan and Ooni Volt 2 need a mains socket instead of gas or wood, so they suit people who cannot or would rather not use a gas bottle or open flame. The trade-off is heat: the electric Ninja Artisan lists 370°C against about 500°C for the gas ovens.

Pizza size and how many people you are feeding

Pizza ovens are sold by the largest pizza they take: 12 inches for the Koda 12, Karu 12, Roccbox, Ninja Artisan and Volt 2, 16 inches for the Koda 16, and an 18-inch-plus cooking area for the Koda 2 Pro. A 12-inch oven cooks one pizza at a time, so feeding a group means a queue. Bigger ovens also let you cook larger joints and trays, but they are heavier and take more space.

Weight, portability and storage

Listed weights range from about 9kg for the Koda 12 to 27.14kg for the Koda 2 Pro. If you want to put the oven away after each use or take it on trips, favour the lighter models with folding legs. If it will live on a permanent table or outdoor kitchen, weight matters less than cooking area.

Heat-up time and cooking time

Where a heat-up time is stated, the gas and wood ovens here are listed at up to around 500°C in 15 to 20 minutes (the Roccbox listing gives no heat-up time), with pizza cooking in around 60 seconds. These are the manufacturers’ figures and different brands measure them differently, so use them to compare roughly, not to predict exact results. A fast oven also needs your full attention, since a pizza can cook in about a minute.

Warranty and guarantees

The Koda 12, Koda 16 and Koda 2 Pro listings describe a voluntary 1-year manufacturer’s warranty, extended to 5 years if you register within 60 days of purchase. Ooni’s own warranty page gives a different term for some products (3 years on registration for the Volt 2), and the Karu 12 listing does not state warranty terms, so check Ooni’s site for the oven you choose. The Ninja listing offers a free 2-year guarantee on registration. These manufacturer terms are in addition to your statutory rights. Read the terms on the manufacturer’s page and register promptly if you want the longer cover.

Safety, fuel and where to use it

Follow the manufacturer’s manual for how and where to use each oven. Gas, wood and charcoal ovens are designed for outdoor use only, and wood and charcoal produce carbon monoxide, so never use them indoors or in a garage, shed or other enclosed space. Place the oven on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface and keep it clear of fences, overhanging branches and anything flammable. For gas models, use only the regulator and hose supplied (the Koda 12 listing says it is suitable only for a 37 mbar regulator and hose), keep the gas bottle upright and outside, and turn the gas off at the bottle after use. The oven body stays hot long after cooking, so keep children and pets away and never leave a lit oven unattended. If you live in a flat, check your lease or building rules before using a gas, wood or charcoal oven on a balcony. Electric models need a socket, so keep cables out of walkways and away from water.

Pizza oven FAQs (UK)

Which is the best pizza oven in the UK?

It depends on your fuel, budget and space. Of the ovens we compared on Amazon UK, the Ooni Koda 12 at £239 is the cheapest gas oven, the Ooni Karu 12 at £299 has the most ratings, and the Ooni Koda 2 Pro at £599 has the largest cooking area.

Are gas or wood pizza ovens better?

Gas ovens are simpler and faster to get going, while wood or charcoal gives a live-fire flavour with more work. Some ovens, such as the Gozney Roccbox (with its optional wood burner) and Ooni Karu 12 (with a separate gas burner), can use both fuels with the right attachment.

Can you use a pizza oven indoors?

Only models designed for indoor use, such as the Ooni Volt 2, which is described as an indoor electric oven and which Ooni positions for indoor use only. The Ninja Artisan is sold as an outdoor oven, so check its manual before using it indoors. Gas and wood ovens are designed for outdoor use, so do not use them inside.

How hot does a pizza oven get?

The Ooni gas and wood ovens in this guide are listed at up to 500°C, the Gozney Roccbox at 950°F (about 510°C), the Ninja Artisan at up to 370°C, and the Ooni Koda 2 Pro with a range from 160°C to 500°C. The Ooni Volt 2 listing gives 850°F (about 454°C). These are manufacturer claims taken from the Amazon UK listings.

How long does it take to cook a pizza?

Ooni and Gozney list around 60 seconds for the gas and wood ovens, and Ninja lists 3 minutes or less for the Artisan, not including pre-heat. Cooking times depend on the pizza and the dough.

What is the best gas pizza oven in the UK?

Of the gas ovens in this guide, the Ooni Koda 12 (£239.00) is the cheapest, the Ooni Koda 16 (£399.20) has a larger 16-inch size, and the Ooni Koda 2 Pro (£599.00) is the largest and most expensive. The Gozney Roccbox (£349.00) is listed as gas with an optional wood burner.

What is the best electric pizza oven in the UK?

The two electric ovens in this guide are the Ninja Artisan (£269.99) and the Ooni Volt 2 (£498.99). The listings give 1,760W and 1,600W respectively, and a stated maximum of 370°C for the Ninja Artisan.

Are the prices on this page up to date?

They were accurate on Amazon UK on 20 October 2026. Pizza oven prices change frequently, particularly around sale events, so use the links to see the current price.

Which pizza oven should you buy? Our verdict

If you want a simple, affordable gas oven, the Ooni Koda 12 is the place to start. If you prefer a live fire, the Ooni Karu 12 is the wood and charcoal oven with the most ratings here, with gas available as a separate attachment. The Gozney Roccbox suits those who want a compact stone-floor oven with an optional wood burner, and the Ninja Artisan suits anyone who would rather use electricity and wants an air fryer as well (it is sold as an outdoor oven). For bigger pizzas, the Ooni Koda 16 and Koda 2 Pro offer more space, while the Ooni Volt 2 is the indoor option.

Check the current price and the oven’s dimensions on the product page, and think about where it will sit and how you will store it, before you order.
