Our Recommendation

Our recommendation: Gozney Arc

The Gozney Arc wins in 2 out of 4 categories and earns our overall recommendation. The Arc is the Dome's more practical sibling. Still multi-fuel, still premium Gozney quality, but more compact and affordable. A serious contender against the Ooni Karu.

Choose the Gozney Arc if: You prioritise best performance, best premium option.

Choose the Ooni Infrared Thermometer if: Budget is your primary concern, or you value best value.
