Pizza lovers looking to upgrade their outdoor cooking game ahead of the Bank Holiday weekend can bag some serious savings in a new Lakeland sale. The retailer has slashed the price of the Ooni Koda 12 Gas Powered Pizza Oven from 299.99 to 239.99, while the Ooni Karu 2 Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven has been cut from 349.99 to 279.99.

The deals are also mirrored on Ooni's own website, where customers can snap up both the Karu 2 and Koda 12 at the same knocked-down prices. Renowned for delivering 'authentic pizza' from the comfort of home, Ooni ovens have soared in popularity amongst those chasing restaurant-quality results in their back gardens.

The Ooni Koda 12 is a nifty portable outdoor pizza oven capable of cooking a 12" pizza in just 60 seconds, hitting temperatures of up to 500C. Unlike conventional wood-fired ovens, this gas-powered model is ready to go in as little as 15 minutes.

Sleek and easy to transport, it arrives ready to use straight out of the box, complete with foldable legs and a cordierite stone baking board designed to produce perfectly crispy crusts. The Ooni Karu 2, meanwhile, boasts impressive versatility with its multi-fuel design, giving users the freedom to cook with wood, charcoal or gas depending on their preferred flavour profile.

The oven is built to generate the kind of intense heat that replicates a traditional wood-fired pizza oven, delivering crispy bases and beautifully blistered crusts. For those after a more budget-friendly alternative, Argos stocks the Home 55cm Kettle Charcoal BBQ with Pizza Oven for just 60. This versatile piece of kit doubles up as both a BBQ and a pizza oven, running on charcoal.

Product Description

The Ooni Koda 12 oven is designed for shoppers who love outdoor cooking but want a quicker and easier way to get authentic pizza results at home according to the online description.

For those seeking an alternative, the Ninja Artisan Electric Outdoor Pizza Oven and Air Fryer is available for 219.99, down from 299.99, reports Wales Online.

The Ooni Karu 2 claims to whip up 'artisan pizza' in under three minutes, and boasts four outdoor cooking functions: pizza, bake, air fry and proof. One Ooni Karu 2 customer gave it a glowing review, saying: "Amazing authentic pizza."

"After having previously used a BBQ with a pizza stone, this is a total game-changer. The Ooni gives a beautiful, crisp base and also cooks the pizza toppings to perfection."

"Once the Ooni is up to temperature, a pizza can be cooked in just 1-2 minutes. We've used the Ooni with a wood/charcoal mix; however, we might also see how the gas attachment works, for those winter days when you want to spend less time outside."

Another customer remarked of the Ooni Koda 12: "Easy to set up out of the box, takes a bit of getting used to if you've never used one before, but makes amazing, authentic pizza in seconds once you have the hang of it. Looking forward to trying more recipes."

However, not all feedback was positive, with one shopper noting: "The oven was easy to set up and ready to use in 30 minutes. However, be aware that the pizza peel does not come as part of the oven."

Unlike traditional wood-fired ovens, this gas-powered model heats up in as little as 15 minutes. Compact and portable, it comes ready to use straight out of the box with foldable legs and a cordierite stone baking board that helps create perfectly crisp crusts. Meanwhile, the Ooni Karu 2 offers plenty of flexibility thanks to its multi-fuel design, allowing users to cook with wood, charcoal or gas depending on the flavour they want.

The oven is designed to create high temperatures that mimic traditional wood-fired pizza ovens, helping achieve crispy bases and perfectly blistered crusts.

It promises to produce 'artisan pizza' in under three minutes or less, and has four outdoor cooking functions: pizza, bake, air fry and proof. One Ooni Karu 2 shopper rated it highly and said: "The oven was easy to set up and ready to use in 30 minutes. However, be aware that the pizza peel does not come as part of the oven.

"I had ordered one, but it is currently out of stock. Not realising how essential this is, and having promised the grandchildren pizzas, we tried using fish slices and cake tin bases with some success. The results were not pretty, but they did taste good."

Another reviewer remarked in a lengthier assessment: "My only criticism is I do think it's overpriced, which is a shame as I think so many more people, particularly with young families, would invest in this product."

On the whole, the majority of customers were satisfied, with one shopper stating: "Speedy heat up - good looking design and perfect pizza."

Lakeland is currently running a sale on both the Ooni Koda 12 Gas Powered Pizza Oven and the Ooni Karu 2 Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven.
