Our Recommendation
Our recommendation: Ooni Fyra 12
The Ooni Fyra 12 wins in 2 out of 4 categories and earns our overall recommendation. The Fyra is for people who want real wood-fired flavour. The pellet hopper means less faffing than logs. You get the smoke flavour and flame-licked char that gas can't replicate.
Choose the Ooni Fyra 12 if: You prioritise best performance, best premium option.
Choose the Ooni Infrared Thermometer if: Budget is your primary concern, or you value best value.
