Perfect for budget-conscious shoppers seeking authentic wood-fired craft from a compact design, the first generation Ooni Karu 12 delivers the classic Ooni standard with all the power of a large pizza oven. With its small footprint, this rugged oven is right at home on a balcony, in the back garden, or packed away for a trek into the great outdoors.

Multi-Fuel Flexibility

Experience true culinary freedom with the ability to cook using wood, lump charcoal, or gas. Use wood or charcoal for a traditional wood-fired flavour, or attach an Ooni Gas Burner (sold separately) for easy, propane-fuelled baking. 

High-Temperature Performance

Capable of reaching professional-level maximum temperatures of up to 500 °C, the oven hits the ideal baking temperature of 450 °C in as little as 15 minutes. This incredible world-class heat allows you to bake a flawless, restaurant-quality Neapolitan-style pizza in just 60 seconds.

Cook-It-All Versatility

The oven comfortably accommodates 30 cm round pizzas on its thick 15 mm cordierite baking stone and also perfectly fits Ooni Detroit-Style Pizza Pans. Thanks to precise temperature control, you can master all styles of pizza, from classic Neapolitan to New York and Detroit.

Beyond pizza, the exceptional heat and fuel flexibility make it ideal for searing steaks, cooking wood-fired wings, roasting meat and vegetables, or baking flatbreads, naan, and artisan bread. It is super versatile and pairs wonderfully with a range of cast iron cookware and roasting pans.

Rugged and Ultra-Portable

Weighing just 12 kg, the Karu 12 is highly portable and ready for adventure. Simply fold up the legs, pack it up, and take it on a camping trip or to a friend's house. For maximum ease of transport, utilizing the handy Ooni Karu 12 Carry Cover is highly recommended.

Care and Essential Accessories

Built to last, the oven can safely remain outdoors all year long when protected by its carry cover. However, for extended periods of non-use or to protect it from harsh weather conditions, indoor storage is advised.

To get the most out of your baking experience, it is highly recommended to equip yourself with essential tools such as a standard pizza peel, an infrared thermometer to accurately gauge the stone temperature, and a turning peel to rotate your pizzas like a pro.
