Count Fuels, Then Burners, on the Best Multi Fuel Pizza Oven

Every oven on this page calls itself multi-fuel, dual fuel or hybrid. Read the ten listings side by side and the word turns out to mean at least four different things. On one oven it means wood or charcoal out of the box and gas later, if you buy a burner. On another it means gas out of the box and wood later, if you buy an attachment. On a third it means two burners in the carton. On a fourth it means a pellet tray and a burner sold separately.

So the first job is to count. We went through every title, bullet and spec field and logged each fuel a listing names: wood, wood pellets, charcoal, propane, and natural gas. The answer is two or three per oven, never more. Two listings name charcoal, the Ooni Karu 2 Pro and the Empava. Six name pellets in words. Not one of the ten names natural gas. Where a listing is specific about its gas, it says propane; Ooni, Gozney and Coyote say only “gas”, and the Coyote’s title adds “Propane”.

The second job is to count burners. Three of the ten tell you plainly that the gas burner is “sold separately”: the Ooni Karu 2 Pro, the BIG HORN 16-inch and the WOOCIT 12-inch. Out of the box, each of those three is a single-fuel oven. The Gozney Roccbox reverses it, with gas standard and an “optional wood burner attachment”. The PIZZELLO is the one portable oven that puts both burners, propane and wood, in the carton and says so. The three big built-in-style ovens, the Coyote, the Empava and the KOSTCH, state a burner output in BTU, which tells you the burner is part of the oven.

Then the numbers spread out. Stated maximum temperatures run from 720°F on the WOOCIT to 1112°F on the BIG HORN. Listed weights run from 20.3 pounds, the WOOCIT’s own bullet figure, to 176.37 pounds on the VEVOR 26-inch, and two listings give no weight at all. Cooking surfaces run from a 12 by 12 inch stone to a stated cooking area of 25.1 by 29.5 inches on the KOSTCH. These are not ten versions of one product. They are three classes of oven, a dozen-odd fuel arrangements and one shared word.

The pellet question needs its own care. Many shoppers searching for the best pellet pizza oven land on multi-fuel listings, because so many small ovens burn hardwood pellets. On this page we credit pellets only where a listing uses the word: the BIG HORN, PIZZELLO, both VEVORs, the KOSTCH and the WOOCIT. The Ooni names wood and charcoal, the Gozney and Coyote name wood, and the Empava names wood and charcoal. Pellets may or may not work in those four; the listings do not say, so we do not say either.

So this guide sorts the ten by what each listing actually commits to: which fuels it names, whether the gas burner is in the box, the maximum temperature it states, the cooking surface it gives and the weight you will be moving. Then it sets out the safety rules that come with two fuels instead of one, because a wood fire and a gas line each bring their own. Star ratings and review counts were not captured for this roundup; popularity below is Amazon’s Best Sellers Rank only.

All ten were captured on 5 October 2026. Their overall Best Sellers Ranks run from #55,444 to #925,350, and the best-ranked of them, the BIG HORN, is one of the three that sells its gas burner separately.

Best Sellers Ranks and specifications are taken from each manufacturer’s Amazon listing as displayed on 5 October 2026 through a United States connection, and may change. Fuels are counted only where a listing names them in its title, bullets or spec fields. “Gas” is recorded as gas where the listing does not say propane; no listing here names natural gas. “Not itemised” means the listing describes propane cooking but neither lists a burner in the box nor says one is sold separately. Maximum temperatures are as stated by each listing and are not tied to a particular fuel. The Coyote states “1,000 degrees” without a unit; Fahrenheit is the likely reading for a US listing but is not stated. Weights are as listed; where a bullet and the spec table disagree, both are shown. The Ooni’s weight is rounded here from the listed 33.730726086 pounds. Ranks are given in the detail cards and in the popularity table further down. The Gozney, Coyote and KOSTCH were flagged as scarce stock at capture. Star ratings and review counts were not captured for any product here.

How We Chose These Ten

We researched current listings, compared manufacturer specifications and documentation, and read each listing’s claims about its fuels, burners, heat, cooking surface and weight line by line. We did not carry out hands-on testing, and nothing below is presented as measured performance data. Star ratings and review counts were not captured for this roundup. We used Amazon Best Sellers Rank, buy-box stock and listing specifications instead, and nothing on this page describes or implies how owners have scored these ovens.

  • Multi-fuel by the listing’s own words — every oven here is sold as multi-fuel, dual fuel, hybrid or gas and wood. Single-fuel ovens, indoor electric ovens and grill-top pizza kits were not in the running.
  • Fuels counted as printed — wood, wood pellets, charcoal, propane and natural gas, each logged only where the listing names it. Generic “gas” is logged as gas. A fuel the listing does not name is marked not stated, even where an oven of that design might cope with it.
  • Pellets credited only where stated — for readers looking for the best pellet pizza oven, we count pellet use only where the word appears in the listing. Four ovens here do not use it.
  • Burners checked for the box — for each oven we recorded whether the gas burner is included, sold separately or not itemised, because a burner sold separately turns a dual-fuel oven into a single-fuel oven on day one.
  • Heat as stated — maximum temperature and preheat claims are quoted exactly. No listing ties its maximum to a fuel, so neither do we.
  • Surface and weight as listed — stone or floor size where given, cooking area where given, listed weight where given, and both figures where two fields disagree. Areas and unit conversions on this page are our arithmetic and are labelled as such.
  • Popularity from Best Sellers Rank only — ranks are quoted exactly as returned on 5 October 2026. Nine of the ten are ranked in Outdoor Ovens; the Ooni is ranked in Countertop Pizza Ovens.
  • Verified stock and seller — each product was the new, buy-box offer and in stock on amazon.com on 5 October 2026. Two of the ten were sold by Amazon.com; the rest by brands or brand-authorised sellers.

Wood appears on most of these listings, but on three the gas side is a burner you buy separately.

The Ten Multi-Fuel Pizza Ovens in Detail

1. Ooni Karu 2 Pro Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven, Wood and Gas, 16 Inch — Best Overall

Black insulated outdoor pizza oven with a full glass door, a chimney and a digital temperature display on the front

Why We Recommend It

It names more fuels than almost anything here, and it is honest about which come in the box. The first bullet reads: “Fire up with wood or charcoal right out of the box for a subtle wood-fired taste, or use gas with the Ooni Karu 2 Pro Gas Burner – sold separately – for maximum cooking versatility.” That is three fuels, wood, charcoal and gas, matched only by the Empava. It is also the clearest statement on the page of what multi-fuel means for this oven: a wood and charcoal oven on day one, and a gas oven once you buy the burner. The listing does not say whether the burner runs on propane or natural gas; it says gas.

The heat claim comes with a time. “The Karu 2 Pro reaches 950°F (500°C) in 15 minutes, for fresh flame-cooked pizza in just 60 seconds.” That puts it level with the Gozney and the Empava, below the BIG HORN’s 1112°F and the 1000°F claims of the VEVOR 12-inch and the Coyote. But it is the only listing here that ties a time directly to its stated maximum, and 950°F is comfortably in the range the listing calls “the only way to create authentic Neapolitan-style pizza”. The claim is not tied to a fuel, so read it as the oven’s best case.

It is the best-instrumented oven on the page. The listing describes a “fully insulated oven body and mounted digital thermometer displaying Ooni Karu 2 Pro internal temperature in F or C”, a full glass door it calls ViewFlame, and smart functions through the Ooni Connect app. Every other oven here that mentions a thermometer describes a built-in dial or gauge; none other mentions an app. A door you can see through matters more on a wood or charcoal fire than on gas, because a live fire needs feeding, and every time a solid door opens the oven loses heat. An air thermometer still reads the air, not the stone; our infrared thermometer guide covers checking the floor itself.

Size and weight sit in the portable class. The title calls it a “Dual Fuel 16 Inch Pizza Maker”, and a pizza stone is included; the listing does not give the stone’s own dimensions. The listed weight is 33.730726086 pounds, about 33.7, which makes it heavier than the two 12-inch ovens and lighter than the BIG HORN and the Gozney. The spec table lists height 37.5 inches, length 16.0 and width 24.0; the height figure is far taller than the oven body would suggest, and may include the chimney, but the listing does not say.

What to weigh. It is sold by Ooni USA, carries a stated 1-year warranty and ranks #110,269 overall and #23 in Countertop Pizza Ovens, the only oven here Amazon files in that category, so its rank is not directly comparable with the nine Outdoor Ovens ranks. The real decision is the burner. If you want wood and charcoal and might add gas later, this listing is the clearest on the page about how that works. If you want gas from the first night, budget for the burner from the start, or look at the Gozney or PIZZELLO.

Pros

  • Three fuels named: wood, charcoal and gas
  • 950°F stated, with a 15-minute time to reach it
  • Mounted digital thermometer in F or C
  • Full glass door and insulated body
  • App connectivity, the only one here
  • Burner status stated plainly

Cons

  • Gas burner sold separately
  • Pellets not named
  • Gas type not stated; natural gas not mentioned
  • Stone dimensions not given
  • Listed height of 37.5 in is unexplained
  • 1-year warranty, shorter than BIG HORN or KOSTCH

Best for: A buyer who wants to start on wood or charcoal, add gas later, and see the temperature without guessing.

2. BIG HORN OUTDOORS 16” Multi-Fuel Outdoor Pizza Oven, Wood-Fired & Gas Compatible — Best Pellet Pick

Silver stainless steel pizza oven on four folding legs with a chimney and a thermometer in the door

Best Sellers Rank #55,444 overall; #10 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

This is the pellet oven of the page, and it says so in detail. The first bullet: “Enjoy authentic wood-fired taste with the pellet system, or switch effortlessly to BIG HORN 16” gas burner attachments (sold separately) for instant, hassle-free cooking.” The title adds “2-in-1 Wood-Fired & Gas Compatible (Burners Sold Separately)”. So out of the box it burns pellets, and gas is an upgrade. That is the same arrangement as the Ooni, with pellets where the Ooni has wood and charcoal. Of the six listings that credit pellets, this is the one that describes the pellet side most fully.

The pellet design gets a paragraph of its own. “Compared with 12 inch pizza oven, the larger combustion chamber not only increases the number of pellets that can be placed, but also adds a plate on the combustion chamber to adjust the position of the air intake, it can be closed when the flame is too large.” That air plate is the only pellet airflow control described on the page. On a pellet oven, airflow is most of the control you have: too little and the pellets smoulder and smoke, too much and the flame races. Our wood pellets for pizza ovens guide covers what to feed it; the WOOCIT is the only other listing that gives pellet advice, telling you to use all-natural hardwood and keep it dry.

The heat claim is the highest here. “Reaches up to 1112℉ (600℃), preheats in just 15 minutes to 300℃, and cooks stone-baked pizza in 60–90 seconds.” Read the two numbers carefully. The 15-minute figure is to 300°C, which is 572°F by our arithmetic, about half the stated maximum. The listing does not say how long 1112°F takes, or on which fuel. Still, no other listing on the page claims more, and the VEVOR 12-inch and Coyote, at 1000°F, are the nearest.

Stone, weight and size are all stated. “The pizza oven come with a 16 inch pizza stone… overall dimension of the pizza oven is 25”D x 18”W x 36”H, and the weight of pizza oven is 42lb.” The spec table gives 42.54 pounds, close enough that the two describe the same thing. That is about 8.8 pounds more than the Ooni and about 6 pounds less than the Gozney, by our arithmetic. The 36-inch height includes four foldable legs, so it stands on the ground rather than a table. A front-facing thermometer sits in the door beside a glass window.

What to weigh. It ranks #55,444 overall and #10 in Outdoor Ovens, the best overall rank on the page, and carries a stated 2-year warranty, second only to the KOSTCH’s 3 years. It is sold by BIG HORN OUTDOORS. The case against it is the same as the Ooni’s: on the first night it is a single-fuel pellet oven. If pellets are the point, that is no drawback at all, and this is the most detailed pellet listing here.

Pros

  • 1112°F stated, the highest on the page
  • Adjustable air-intake plate on the pellet chamber
  • 16-inch stone included
  • Weight and dimensions both stated
  • 2-year warranty
  • Best overall rank here, #55,444

Cons

  • Gas burner sold separately
  • 15-minute preheat is to 300°C, not to maximum
  • Gas type not stated
  • Charcoal and log wood not named
  • 42 lb, the heaviest of the small ovens bar the Gozney
  • Stands on legs; needs ground space

Best for: A buyer who wants a 16-inch pellet oven first, with the option of adding gas later.

3. KOSTCH 32.5 Inch Wood Fired and Propane Gas Pizza Oven, Stainless Steel, Red with Cover — Best Large Oven

Large red stainless steel pizza oven on a wheeled stand with a tall chimney and a wide front opening

A big wheeled oven that states its cooking area, its burner, its certification and a 3-year warranty.

Key Specifications

Fuels named Wood pellets, propane
Gas burner One 35000 BTU burner; gas regulator included
Max temperature 800°F, stated
Preheat About 10–15 minutes, stated
Cooking area 0.48 m² (25.1 x 29.5 in), stated
Pizza stone Built-in, stated; size given as cooking area
Listed weight 143.0 pounds
Dimensions 38.6 x 31 x 78.8 in
Certification CSA, stated
Warranty 3-year on parts and labour
Best Sellers Rank #262,144 overall; #100 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

This is the large oven that puts the most facts in writing. The third bullet does the work: “Crafted with the highest quality 430 stainless steel, pizza oven size: 38.6” * 31” * 78.8”, cooking Area: 0.48㎡(25.1” x 29.5”). With one 35000 BTU Burner. CSA certification.” No other oven on the page gives a cooking area as a measured rectangle, and no other names a safety certification. 25.1 by 29.5 inches is about 740 square inches, by our arithmetic, more than three and a half times the area of a 16-inch round pizza.

Its two fuels are pellets and propane, and both are ready. “Simply add wood pellets or use propane gas preheat the oven for approximately 10-15 minutes.” The package list includes “1 x gas regulator”, which is the part that sits between a propane cylinder and the burner. That is a meaningful detail: a burner without a regulator is not ready to connect. Wood here means pellets, so this listing counts toward the pellet tally. Charcoal and natural gas are not named, and any conversion away from propane is a question for the manual or a qualified gas technician, not for the listing.

The heat ceiling is moderate. “Once it reaches the desired temperature (max 800℉), you’ll be ready to bake mouthwatering pizzas in as little as 1-2 minutes.” That is lower than the 950°F claims of the Ooni, Gozney and Empava, and 312°F below the BIG HORN, by our arithmetic. On a large floor with a 35000 BTU burner, 800°F is still far above any domestic oven, and the 1–2 minute bake claim fits that. If your aim is the very fastest Neapolitan bake, the smaller, hotter ovens claim more.

It is built to stay put, mostly. 143 pounds and nearly 79 inches tall with its chimney, it rolls on “four removable wheels for effortless mobility”. The listing also suggests camping trips; at 143 pounds, most buyers will treat it as a patio fixture that can be repositioned. The package adds a pizza spatula, cutter, shovel, brush, four hooks and a waterproof cover, so the main extras you need are fuel and a propane cylinder.

What to weigh. It ranks #262,144 overall and #100 in Outdoor Ovens, was sold by AnorTrek&Onsaler Appliances, and was flagged as scarce stock at capture. The “3-year warranty on parts & labor” is the longest stated on the page. Against the Empava and the VEVOR 26-inch, the other two big ovens, it has the clearest cooking area, the only certification and the longest warranty; it gives up some heat to the Empava and some weight to neither.

Pros

  • Cooking area stated: 25.1 x 29.5 in
  • 35000 BTU burner with regulator included
  • CSA certification stated, the only one here
  • 3-year parts and labour warranty
  • Waterproof cover and tools included
  • Pellets credited in words

Cons

  • 800°F, below the 950°F class
  • 143 lb, even on wheels
  • Stock scarce at capture
  • Natural gas and charcoal not named
  • Nearly 79 in tall with chimney
  • Size field reads 53.99 cubic feet, a shipping-style figure

Best for: A patio cook who wants a large propane-and-pellet oven with paperwork: certification, regulator and warranty.

4. PIZZELLO 16” Outdoor Pizza Oven, Multi-fuel Stainless Steel Pizza Grill — Both Burners Included

Black and stainless portable pizza oven with folding legs, a detachable chimney and a pizza stone inside

The one portable oven that puts both burners, propane and wood, in the carton and says so.

Key Specifications

Fuels named Propane, wood; “gas pellet” in one bullet
Burners 2 included: propane burner and wood burner
Max temperature 752°F (400°C) after 25–30 minutes, stated
Pizza stone 16 inch, included
Also included Stainless steel peel, waterproof carry bag
Insulation Double-walled stainless with insulation cotton
Legs and chimney Fold-up legs, detachable chimney
Listed weight Not stated
Dimensions Height 34.25 in, length 34.06 in, width 18.5 in
Warranty Not stated
Best Sellers Rank #148,554 overall; #47 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

Of the portable ovens, only this listing says both fuels work straight out of the box. “16” gas pizza oven comes with 2 Burners ( Propane and Wood burner), Stainless Steel Pizza Peel, 16” Pizza Stone and Waterproof Carry Bag, all Key Accessories are INCLUDED.” The Ooni, BIG HORN and WOOCIT all make you buy the gas burner. The Gozney makes you buy the wood burner. The PIZZELLO ships both. If the reason you want a multi-fuel oven is to cook on gas on a weeknight and on wood at the weekend, this is the listing that delivers that on day one.

The pellet credit is thin but present. The first bullet speaks of a “Propane and wood burner”, and the third calls it an “Outdoor gas pellet pizza oven”. That one phrase is enough to count pellets as named, and the wood burner of a portable oven of this type is usually fed with pellets, but the listing never describes pellet loading, a hopper or a tray. We count it among the six pellet listings with that caveat; if pellets are your main fuel, the BIG HORN describes its pellet system in far more detail.

The heat claim is the lowest of the 16-inch ovens. “Our pizza oven after adding the fuel combustion can reach 752℉(400℃) over 25-30 minutes, within about 60 seconds resulting in a perfectly crisp and delicious pizza crust.” Next to the Ooni’s 950°F in 15 minutes and the BIG HORN’s 1112°F, that is both cooler and slower. It is still well above a domestic oven, and a 60-second bake at 752°F is a plausible claim for a thin base, but this is not the oven to buy for the hottest floor.

Two numbers are missing. The listing gives no weight and no warranty. The spec table gives height 34.25 inches, length 34.06 and width 18.5, a footprint that includes the legs and chimney. It describes “insulation cotton between double walled stainless steel” and fold-up legs, and it comes with a carry bag. Without a weight you cannot compare it with the 33.73-pound Ooni or the 42-pound BIG HORN, and for a portable oven that is a real gap; ask the seller before you order.

What to weigh. It was sold by HarmonyLifestyle and ranks #148,554 overall and #47 in Outdoor Ovens. Everything you need to cook on either fuel, bar the fuel and the propane cylinder, is in the box, including a peel; our pizza peel roundup explains why many cooks still add a second, wooden one for launching. Accept a lower heat ceiling, no stated weight and no stated warranty in exchange for the most complete kit on the page.

Pros

  • Both burners included: propane and wood
  • 16-inch stone, peel and carry bag in the box
  • Double-walled insulated body
  • Fold-up legs and detachable chimney
  • Pellets named, if only once
  • Ready for either fuel on day one

Cons

  • 752°F, lowest of the 16-inch ovens
  • 25–30 minutes to temperature
  • No weight stated
  • No warranty stated
  • Pellet loading not described
  • Natural gas and charcoal not named

Best for: A buyer who wants gas and wood burners in one box and values completeness over peak heat.

5. Empava Professional Gas & Wood Fired Pizza Oven Outdoor — Most Burner Power

Large black pizza oven on a tall stand with a domed chamber, a chimney and a front-mounted thermometer

Three fuels, the strongest burner stated on the page, and a thick firebrick floor, at 163.2 pounds.

Key Specifications

Fuels named Gas, wood, charcoal
Gas burner 46,000 BTU, included; AA battery required
Max temperature 950°F+ (510°C+), stated
Floor 1.25” firebrick
Oven interior 31.5” W x 19.68” D x 12.6” H
Overall dimensions 39.76” W x 33.74” D x 55.3” H
Listed weight 163.2 pounds
Thermometer Integrated mechanical
Included Peel, spatula, cleaning brush, shaking knife, glove, cover
Warranty 1 year manufacturer
Best Sellers Rank #925,350 overall; #419 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

This is the other three-fuel oven, and the most powerful burner here. The first bullet is a plain list: “Fuel Source: Gas (AA battery required), Wood, Charcoal.” Only the Ooni matches that count. The third bullet gives the burner: “Blistering 46,000 BTU Gas Power: Achieve pro-level 950°F+ (510°C+) heats in minutes.” That is the highest BTU figure on the page, ahead of the KOSTCH’s 35000 and the Coyote’s 31k. The AA battery is for ignition; the listing does not say more, but it means a spare battery belongs in the kit.

The gas is propane by description, not by spec. The second bullet speaks of “the quick, clean convenience of a powerful propane pizza oven”. The fuel list itself says gas. Natural gas is not named. If you have a natural gas line on the patio, do not assume this oven, or any oven on this page, can be connected to it; conversion is only ever a job done per the manual or by a qualified gas technician, and this listing does not describe one.

The floor is the detail that sets it apart. “Authentic 1.25” Firebrick Floor: Thick firebrick absorbs and radiates intense heat evenly.” It is the only floor thickness stated on the page apart from the WOOCIT’s 12mm stone. 1.25 inches is about 32mm, by our arithmetic, so roughly two and a half times the WOOCIT’s stone. A thick floor takes longer to heat through and holds more heat once it is there, which matters when you bake pizza after pizza. The interior is 31.5 by 19.68 inches, about 620 square inches by our arithmetic, though the listing does not say how much of that is usable floor.

It is a stand-mounted oven, not a portable one. 163.2 pounds and 55.3 inches tall, it is the second-heaviest stated oven here after the VEVOR 26-inch. The listing includes a long tool list, peel, spatula, cleaning brush, “Shaking Knife”, heat-resistant glove and oven cover, and an integrated mechanical thermometer. It does not describe wheels, so plan where it will live before it arrives.

What to weigh. It was sold by Empava Appliances Inc, carries a 1-year manufacturer warranty, and ranks #925,350 overall and #419 in Outdoor Ovens, the weakest rank on the page. On paper it has the most fuel flexibility of the big ovens and the strongest burner; the KOSTCH beats it on warranty and certification, and the listing gives no cooking-area figure beyond the interior box.

Pros

  • Three fuels named: gas, wood, charcoal
  • 46,000 BTU, the strongest burner stated here
  • 1.25-inch firebrick floor
  • 950°F+ stated
  • Interior dimensions given
  • Long tool list and cover included

Cons

  • 163.2 lb; no wheels described
  • Gas called propane only in prose
  • Natural gas not named
  • AA battery needed for ignition
  • Weakest rank on the page
  • 1-year warranty

Best for: A patio cook who wants wood, charcoal and gas on one big oven with a thick firebrick floor.

6. Gozney Roccbox Outdoor Pizza Oven, Portable, Gas & Wood Fired, Black — Gas First

Compact black rounded pizza oven with a wide low mouth and a stone floor, standing on folding legs

Gas out of the box and wood as an optional attachment, the mirror image of the Ooni.

Key Specifications

Gas burner Standard
Wood burner Optional attachment
Pellets Not stated
Max temperature 950 degrees, stated; 60-second pizza
Floor Stone floor; size not stated
Listed weight 48.45 pounds

Best Sellers Rank #73,246 overall; #20 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

This is multi-fuel the other way round. The title says “Gas & Wood Fired”, the second bullet calls it “this powerful gas pizza oven”, and the last bullet explains the wood: “With its outdoor versatility and optional wood burner attachment, you can achieve wood-fire flavor effortlessly.” So gas is standard and wood is the extra, where the Ooni, BIG HORN and WOOCIT do the opposite. Pellets and charcoal are not named. Gas is not specified as propane or natural gas.

The heat claim matches the Ooni. “COOKS PIZZA IN 60 SECONDS AT 950 DEGREES – Roccbox boasts unbeatable heat retention, allowing you to quickly cook pizza after pizza.” The unit is not printed, but on a US listing quoting a 60-second pizza it is Fahrenheit by any sensible reading. The listing gives no preheat time. It calls Roccbox “the original stone-floor portable pizza oven”, but does not give the size of that stone floor, so you cannot check how large a pizza fits from this page.

It is heavy for a portable. The listed weight is 48.45 pounds, the most of the small ovens and about 15 pounds more than the Ooni by our arithmetic. The dimension fields disagree: the spec table gives 18.6 inches high, 20.9 long and 16.0 wide, while the size field gives length 24.8, width 16.5 and height 14.6. Both are reported here; plan around the larger figures. Our portable pizza oven roundup weighs portability more broadly.

One line needs correcting. The third bullet says Roccbox is “Designed for both home and outdoor use”. Read “home” as your garden or patio. A gas or wood flame produces carbon monoxide, and no oven on this page should be used indoors, in a garage, under an enclosed porch or in a tent. The same bullet suggests camping trips; that means an open pitch, well clear of the tent and anything that burns.

What to weigh. It was sold by Gozney, flagged as scarce stock at capture, and ranks #73,246 overall and #20 in Outdoor Ovens, the second-best rank on the page. No warranty is stated. Choose it if gas is your everyday fuel and wood is an occasional treat; choose the Ooni if it is the other way round.

Pros

  • Gas standard; cooks from day one on gas
  • 950 degrees and 60-second pizza claimed
  • Stone floor
  • Second-best rank here, #73,246
  • Compact, low-profile design
  • Sold by Gozney

Cons

  • Wood burner is an optional extra
  • Stone size not stated
  • 48.45 lb, heaviest of the portables
  • Dimension fields disagree
  • No warranty stated
  • Scarce stock at capture

Best for: A buyer who will cook mostly on gas and wants the option of wood later.

7. VEVOR Dual Fuel Pizza Oven Outdoor, 12 Inch Wood Fire & Propane Gas — Hot and Light

Silver stainless steel compact pizza oven with a chimney, a built-in thermometer and folding legs

A 1000°F claim on a 24-pound oven, with a listing that never mentions a pizza stone.

Key Specifications

Fuels named Wood, pellets, propane
Gas burner Not itemised; propane use described
Max temperature 1000°F, stated
Preheat 600°F in 15 minutes, stated
Pizza size 12 inch, per title
Pizza stone Not mentioned
Construction 3-layer; 430 stainless shell; insulation cotton
Listed weight 24.03 pounds
Dimensions Height 26.0 in, length 29.5 in, width 15.4 in
Included Carry bag; built-in thermometer
Best Sellers Rank #102,676 overall; #28 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

Three fuels appear in the title, two systems in practice. “12 Inch Wood Fire & Propane Gas Pizza Oven, Pellet & Propane Pizza-Maker”. Wood and pellets here describe one solid-fuel side, propane the other. The first bullet calls it “Wood & Propane Fuel Optional”. What the listing does not do is say whether the propane burner comes in the box or is sold separately. It does not list box contents beyond a carry bag and a built-in thermometer. We record it as not itemised; confirm with the seller before you assume you can cook on gas on day one.

The heat claim is second only to the BIG HORN. “Our outdoor pizza oven preheats to 600°F in just 15 minutes, baking pizzas in 90 seconds. With a max temperature of 1000°F.” That ties the Coyote and beats the Ooni and Gozney on paper. As with the BIG HORN, the 15-minute figure is to a working temperature, not the maximum, and the maximum is not tied to a fuel.

The stone is missing from the listing. Nothing in the title, bullets or specs mentions a pizza stone, a cordierite floor or a baking surface of any kind. The 12-inch figure in the title describes the pizza size. Every other small oven here names its stone, and the WOOCIT, at the same 12-inch size, gives its stone to the millimetre. This may simply be an omission, but a pizza oven’s floor is the part that cooks the base, so ask before you order.

It is light and easy to carry. The listed weight is 24.03 pounds, second-lightest here after the WOOCIT. The spec table gives 26.0 inches high, 29.5 long and 15.4 wide. The listing describes “a 3-layer construction” with a “430 stainless steel shell, and thick insulation cotton”, and a carry bag for patio, camping and picnic use. For camping, the safety rules are the same as at home: in the open, on a stable non-combustible surface, away from tents and trees.

What to weigh. It was sold by Amazon.com and ranks #102,676 overall and #28 in Outdoor Ovens. No warranty is stated. On paper it is the hottest light oven on the page; the open questions are the burner and the stone, and both are worth an answer before you buy.

Pros

  • 1000°F stated, second-highest here
  • 24.03 lb, second-lightest here
  • Pellets named in the title
  • 3-layer insulated build
  • Carry bag included
  • Sold by Amazon.com

Cons

  • No pizza stone mentioned
  • Burner not itemised
  • 12-inch pizza size only
  • No warranty stated
  • 15-minute preheat is to 600°F, not to maximum
  • Charcoal and natural gas not named

Best for: A buyer who wants a light, hot 12-inch oven and will confirm the burner and stone with the seller.

8. Coyote 30-Inch Hybrid Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven (C1PZ30HRLP), Propane, Red — Built-In Style

Red domed outdoor pizza oven with a wide arched opening and a chimney, set on an outdoor counter

A 30-inch hybrid with a 31k BTU burner and a seamless dome, described in four short bullets.

Key Specifications

Fuels named Gas or wood; propane in title
Gas burner 31k BTU single burner
Max temperature Up to 1,000 degrees, stated
Dome One piece seamless
Size 30”
Floor or stone Not stated
Listed weight Not stated
Included 4pc toolkit
Warranty Not stated
Stock at capture Scarce
Best Sellers Rank #431,613 overall; #173 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

Everything this listing says fits in four lines. “Gas or Wood (31k BTU Single Burner)”, “One Piece Seamless Dome”, “4pc Toolkit Included”, “Temperatures up to 1,000 degrees”. The title adds “30-Inch Hybrid Multi-Fuel” and “Propane”, and the model number ends in LP, a common shorthand for liquid propane. That is two fuels, gas and wood, with the gas specified as propane. Natural gas, pellets and charcoal are not named.

The burner is stated, and that tells you it is part of the oven. A 31k BTU single burner is the smallest of the three BTU figures on the page, against 35000 on the KOSTCH and 46,000 on the Empava. BTU alone does not decide heat, because insulation and chamber size matter as much, and the listing gives neither a chamber size nor a floor.

The heat claim is high, and unitless. “Temperatures up to 1,000 degrees” ties the VEVOR 12-inch for second place. It does not print F or C; on a US listing, Fahrenheit is the reasonable reading, but it is a reading. The listing does not say how long the oven takes to get there.

The gaps are the biggest on the page. No weight. No floor or stone material or size. No overall dimensions beyond the 30-inch size, which most likely refers to the width of the oven. No warranty. The “One Piece Seamless Dome” is the only construction detail. For an oven of this class, most of the information you need, cut-out size if it goes into an outdoor kitchen, clearances, weight on the counter, will have to come from the manufacturer’s documentation.

What to weigh. It was sold by BBQ Island Inc, flagged as scarce stock at capture, and ranks #431,613 overall and #173 in Outdoor Ovens. If you already have an outdoor kitchen and want a propane-and-wood oven from an outdoor-kitchen brand, it is a candidate; read the manual first, because the listing alone cannot tell you whether it fits.

Pros

  • Propane and wood, burner included
  • 31k BTU stated
  • Up to 1,000 degrees claimed
  • One-piece seamless dome
  • 4-piece toolkit included
  • 30-inch class

Cons

  • No weight stated
  • No floor or stone details
  • Temperature unit not printed
  • No warranty stated
  • Scarce stock at capture
  • Only four bullets of information

Best for: An outdoor-kitchen owner who will read the manufacturer’s documents before buying.

9. VEVOR Dual Fuel Giant Pizza Oven Outdoor, 26” Artisan, Pellet & Propane — Two Pizzas at Once

Very large silver stainless steel pizza oven on a wheeled cart with a tall chimney and a side thermometer

Two 12-inch pizzas at a time on a 176-pound wheeled oven that tops out at 750°F.

Key Specifications

Fuels named Pellets, wood, propane
Gas burner Connect gas tank, per instructions; not itemised
Max temperature Up to 750°F, stated
Preheat 15 minutes, stated
Capacity 2 x 12 inch pizzas at once, stated
Pizza stone Included; size not stated
Listed weight 176.37 pounds
Dimensions Height 72.05 in, length 59.84 in, width 36.02 in
Model field 22” Artisan Pizza Oven (title says 26”)
Warranty 1 year
Best Sellers Rank #538,078 overall; #225 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

This is the capacity oven, and it says how much. “Perfect for baking 2 x 12inch pizza once, versatile enough for meats, fish, and vegetables.” It is the only listing here that states a two-pizza capacity. The title adds “Pellet & Propane Gas Kiln Pizza Maker with Wheels, Pizza Stone”, so pellets are credited in words and a stone is included, though its size is not given.

The fuels are pellets and propane, and the gas side is built in. The second bullet repeats VEVOR’s “Wood & Propane Fuel Optional!” line, and the last explains operation: “Load fuel or connect gas tank, ignite, preheat the pizza oven.” Connecting a tank directly implies a fitted burner, though the listing never itemises one or a regulator. A pellet scoop, gloves and hooks are in the box.

The heat claim is modest. “VEVOR large outdoor pizza oven preheat in just 15 minutes and reach up to 750℉, baking perfectly crispy pizzas in only 90 seconds.” 750°F is the second-lowest maximum on the page, above only the WOOCIT’s 720°F, and 250°F below the smaller VEVOR 12-inch, by our arithmetic. A bigger chamber is harder to heat; the listing is candid about where it lands.

It is the heaviest and largest oven here, and the size is in doubt. The listed weight is 176.37 pounds, and the spec table gives 72.05 inches high, 59.84 long and 36.02 wide. Those may be packaging or cart figures; the listing does not say. The title calls it 26-inch, while the model and part fields both say “22” Artisan Pizza Oven”. We report both. It rolls on “movable wheels for easy maneuverability”, which at this weight is the only realistic way to move it.

What to weigh. It was sold by Amazon.com with a 1-year warranty, and ranks #538,078 overall and #225 in Outdoor Ovens. Choose it for volume: two pizzas at once, pellets or propane. Accept a lower ceiling, a size you should confirm, and a footprint that needs a dedicated corner of the patio well clear of walls and fences.

Pros

  • Two 12-inch pizzas at once, stated
  • Pellets and propane, both in words
  • Stone, scoop, gloves and hooks included
  • On wheels
  • Sold by Amazon.com
  • 1-year warranty stated

Cons

  • 750°F, second-lowest here
  • 176.37 lb, the heaviest here
  • Title says 26 in; model field says 22 in
  • Stone size not stated
  • Burner and regulator not itemised
  • Charcoal and natural gas not named

Best for: A family or party cook who wants two pizzas per bake and has a permanent patio spot for it.

10. WOOCIT 12” Multi-Fuel Outdoor Pizza Oven, Reaches 720°F, with Stone & Peel — Lightest Here

Small black pizza oven with folding legs, a carry handle and a door with a smoke vent, no chimney

The lightest oven here, with its stone given to the millimetre and a gas burner sold separately.

Key Specifications

Fuels named Hardwood pellets, propane
Gas burner Propane burner sold separately
Max temperature 720°F; 626°F in 15 minutes, stated
Pizza stone 12” x 12” x 12mm, included
Also included 10” pizza peel; built-in thermometer
Chimney None; door with smoke vent
Listed weight 20.3 lb in bullet; 26.0 pounds in spec table
Dimensions 18.3” x 14.1” x 13.8”
Assembly Only 4 screws, stated
Warranty 1 year
Best Sellers Rank #195,326 overall; #76 in Outdoor Ovens

Why We Recommend It

It is a pellet oven first, and it says so. “Use hardwood pellets for smoky flavor or switch to propane burner (sold separately) in seconds.” The bullet then adds: “Our product does not contain propane; if you need it, you can purchase it separately.” So, like the Ooni and BIG HORN, it is single-fuel on day one. It is also the only listing on the page that gives pellet advice: “Use only all‑natural hardwood pellets and store them in an airtight container to prevent moisture absorption, which can cause poor combustion and unstable temperatures.” That is good advice for any pellet oven; our wood pellets for pizza ovens guide goes further.

The stone is specified better than anyone else’s. “Comes with 12”×12”×12mm pizza stone, 10” pizza peel, and built-in thermometer.” Only the Empava’s 1.25-inch firebrick also gives a thickness. 12 by 12 inches is 144 square inches, by our arithmetic, which fits a 12-inch pizza with little margin for turning. The listing says “Rotate your pizza easily without closing the door” and that “Bottom finger holes make it easy to lift the stone for cleaning.”

The heat is the lowest stated, but it is stated twice. “Reaches 626°F in 15 minutes and up to 720°F, cooking perfect pizzas in 60-90 seconds.” 720°F is the bottom of the page, 392°F below the BIG HORN by our arithmetic. The listing credits a “powerful long flame that covers the entire pizza stone”, and a door with a smoke vent in place of a chimney, which it says gives “hotter, steadier flames” and easier storage.

The weight depends on which field you read. The fifth bullet says “Weighs only 20.3 lb with a compact size of 18.3”×14.1”×13.8””. The spec table says 26.0 pounds. The gap is 5.7 pounds by our arithmetic, possibly packaging, but not explained. On either figure it is the lightest or near-lightest oven here, against the VEVOR 12-inch’s 24.03 pounds. It has a carry handle and foldable legs, and assembly is “only 4 screws”.

What to weigh. It was sold by XZYUK with a 1-year warranty and ranks #195,326 overall and #76 in Outdoor Ovens. Amazon files it under Major Appliances. Choose it as a light pellet oven for 12-inch pizzas, with gas as a later option; accept the lowest heat claim on the page and a burner you will have to buy.

Pros

  • Lightest here: 20.3 lb by bullet
  • Stone stated: 12 x 12 in, 12mm thick
  • Peel and thermometer included
  • Pellet advice given in the listing
  • Four-screw assembly
  • 1-year warranty

Cons

  • 720°F, the lowest stated heat
  • Propane burner sold separately
  • Weight fields disagree: 20.3 vs 26.0 lb
  • 12-inch pizzas only
  • No chimney; venting through the door
  • Charcoal and log wood not named

Best for: A buyer who wants the lightest pellet oven here for 12-inch pizzas and may add gas later.

What Multi-Fuel Means on Each Listing

The single most useful thing you can do with a multi-fuel listing is to separate the fuels it names from the fuels it can burn the day it arrives. The table below does that for all ten. A tick means the listing names the fuel in words; a dash means it does not.

Oven Wood Pellets Charcoal Propane Natural gas Gas burner Day-one fuels
Ooni Karu 2 Pro Yes — Yes “Gas” — Sold separately Wood, charcoal
BIG HORN 16” “Wood-fired” via pellets Yes — “Gas” — Sold separately Pellets
KOSTCH 32.5” As pellets Yes — Yes — Included, regulator too Pellets, propane
PIZZELLO 16” Yes Named once — Yes — Both burners included Wood, propane
Empava Yes — Yes In prose — Included Gas, wood, charcoal
Gozney Roccbox Optional burner — — “Gas” — Standard Gas
VEVOR 12” Yes Yes — Yes — Not itemised Wood or pellets; propane unconfirmed
Coyote 30” Yes — — Title — Included, 31k BTU Gas, wood
VEVOR 26” Yes Yes — Yes — Connects to tank Pellets, propane
WOOCIT 12” As pellets Yes — Yes — Sold separately Pellets

Ten ovens, four meanings of one word. Read down the last column and the ten fall into groups. Three, the Ooni, BIG HORN and WOOCIT, are solid-fuel ovens that accept a gas burner you buy later. One, the Gozney, is a gas oven that accepts a wood burner you buy later. Two portables, the PIZZELLO and, on its title, the VEVOR 12-inch, describe both fuels in one product, and only the PIZZELLO itemises both burners. The three big ovens, the KOSTCH, Empava and VEVOR 26-inch, plus the Coyote, build the burner in and add a solid-fuel option.

Nobody names natural gas. For a buyer with a gas line to the patio, that is the most important finding on the page. Every listing that specifies its gas says propane. Four just say gas. None describes a natural gas version, a conversion kit or the orifice change a conversion usually needs. Never convert an oven from propane to natural gas, or the reverse, on your own initiative. It is done only as the manufacturer’s manual describes, with the manufacturer’s parts, or by a qualified gas technician.

Charcoal is rare. Two listings name it, the Ooni and the Empava. Charcoal burns hotter and steadier than a log fire with less flame, and some cooks use it as a base under wood. If charcoal matters to you, those are the only two that commit to it.

Six listings credit pellets. For anyone searching for the best pellet pizza oven on this page: the BIG HORN, KOSTCH, PIZZELLO, both VEVORs and the WOOCIT. The BIG HORN and WOOCIT describe their pellet side most fully; the PIZZELLO names pellets only once. The other four say wood or charcoal, and we do not credit them with pellets.

A pile of hardwood chips
Six of the ten listings name pellets; we credit pellet use only where the word appears.

Heat, Surface and Weight Side by Side

Once the fuels are sorted, three numbers decide what an oven will do on your patio: how hot the listing says it gets, how big the cooking surface is, and how heavy it is to move. Here they are together. Where a listing gives two figures, both appear. Areas and conversions are our arithmetic.

Oven Max temp stated Time to temp stated Cooking surface stated Listed weight Burner output
BIG HORN 16” 1112°F (600°C) 15 min to 300°C 16-inch stone 42 lb / 42.54 lb Not stated
VEVOR 12” 1000°F 15 min to 600°F No stone mentioned 24.03 lb Not stated
Coyote 30” 1,000 degrees Not stated Not stated Not stated 31k BTU
Ooni Karu 2 Pro 950°F (500°C) 15 min to max 16-inch, per title 33.73 lb Not stated
Gozney Roccbox 950 degrees Not stated Stone floor, size not stated 48.45 lb Not stated
Empava 950°F+ (510°C+) “In minutes” Interior 31.5 x 19.68 in, about 620 sq in (ours) 163.2 lb 46,000 BTU
KOSTCH 32.5” 800°F About 10–15 min 25.1 x 29.5 in, about 740 sq in (ours) 143 lb 35000 BTU
PIZZELLO 16” 752°F (400°C) 25–30 min 16-inch stone Not stated Not stated
VEVOR 26” 750°F 15 min preheat 2 x 12-inch pizzas 176.37 lb Not stated
WOOCIT 12” 720°F 15 min to 626°F 12 x 12 in stone, 144 sq in (ours) 20.3 lb / 26.0 lb Not stated

The hottest claims sit on the small ovens. The BIG HORN, the VEVOR 12-inch and the Coyote top the table; the big wheeled VEVOR 26-inch and KOSTCH sit near the bottom at 750°F and 800°F. That fits the physics: a small, well-insulated chamber reaches a high temperature with less fuel than a large one. A domestic oven typically tops out around 500°F; every oven here claims at least 220°F more than that, by our arithmetic, which is why the main main pizza oven guide treats outdoor ovens as a separate class.

Read time-to-temperature claims carefully. Five listings give a 15-minute figure. The Ooni ties it to its maximum, and the VEVOR 26-inch puts a 15-minute preheat and its 750°F ceiling in one sentence. The BIG HORN’s 15 minutes is to 300°C, the VEVOR 12-inch’s to 600°F, the WOOCIT’s to 626°F. The PIZZELLO is candid at 25–30 minutes to its 752°F. And none of these figures is tied to a fuel, though in practice gas and pellets usually behave quite differently at start-up.

Weight divides the page cleanly. The four small ovens with stated weights run from 20.3 to 48.45 pounds and can be lifted by one or two adults. The three big ovens with stated weights run from 143 to 176.37 pounds and come on wheels or a stand. The PIZZELLO and Coyote give no weight, which for one portable and one built-in style oven means two different kinds of unanswered question.

Two Fuels, Two Sets of Safety Rules

A multi-fuel oven carries the risks of a wood fire and the risks of a gas appliance. Neither cancels the other. These rules apply to every oven on this page, whichever fuel you light.

  • Outdoors only. Wood, pellets, charcoal and gas all produce carbon monoxide, which you cannot see or smell. Never use any of these ovens indoors, in a garage, a shed, a tent, a camper, under an enclosed porch or in any enclosed or partly enclosed space, even with a door or window open. The Gozney listing’s phrase “home and outdoor use” should be read as the garden, not the house.
  • Keep clear of anything that burns. Set the oven on a stable, level, non-combustible surface, with clearance from walls, fences, railings, overhangs, branches and furniture. The manual gives the distances for your model; follow them. Chimneys throw sparks on wood and pellets, so look up as well as around.
  • Check every gas connection for leaks. Before each use, and every time you connect a cylinder, brush soapy water over the hose and fittings with the gas on and the burner off. Bubbles mean a leak: turn the gas off and do not light the oven until it is fixed. Use the regulator supplied or specified by the manufacturer; the KOSTCH lists one in the box.
  • Convert only by the book. No listing here names natural gas. Any change between propane and natural gas is done only as the manual describes, or by a qualified gas technician. The same applies to fitting a gas burner sold separately: use the manufacturer’s own part and follow its instructions.
  • One fuel at a time, unless the manual says otherwise. Switching fuels means swapping a burner or a tray on most of these ovens. Let the oven cool before you do it, and disconnect the gas before you handle a gas burner.
  • Let it cool completely. Ovens that reach 720 to 1112°F stay hot long after the flame is out, and a stone or firebrick floor holds heat for hours. Do not cover, move or pack an oven until it is fully cold, and dispose of ash only once it is cold, in a metal container.
  • Keep children and pets back, wear heat-resistant gloves, and keep a suitable fire extinguisher nearby.

The KOSTCH is the only listing that states a safety certification, CSA. That does not make the others unsafe, but it is the one piece of third-party paperwork on the page. For any oven with a gas burner, the manual and the certification marks on the appliance itself are the documents that matter; our outdoor propane pizza oven guide covers gas-specific checks in more detail.

Every fuel here makes carbon monoxide: outdoors only, with clearance from walls and anything that burns.

Popularity Follows the Small Ovens

Star ratings were not captured for this roundup, so the only popularity measure here is Amazon’s Best Sellers Rank, as returned on 5 October 2026. Ranks move constantly. Nine ovens are ranked in Outdoor Ovens; the Ooni is ranked in Countertop Pizza Ovens, so its category rank does not compare directly.

Oven Overall rank Category rank Gas burner
BIG HORN 16” #55,444 #10 in Outdoor Ovens Sold separately
Gozney Roccbox #73,246 #20 in Outdoor Ovens Standard
VEVOR 12” #102,676 #28 in Outdoor Ovens Not itemised
Ooni Karu 2 Pro #110,269 #23 in Countertop Pizza Ovens Sold separately
PIZZELLO 16” #148,554 #47 in Outdoor Ovens Both included
WOOCIT 12” #195,326 #76 in Outdoor Ovens Sold separately
KOSTCH 32.5” #262,144 #100 in Outdoor Ovens Included
Coyote 30” #431,613 #173 in Outdoor Ovens Included
VEVOR 26” #538,078 #225 in Outdoor Ovens Connects to tank
Empava #925,350 #419 in Outdoor Ovens Included

The six small ovens hold the six best ranks. The four big ovens fill the bottom four places. Within the small ovens, having the gas burner in the box does not appear to drive the order: the best-ranked oven, the BIG HORN, sells its burner separately, and the one portable that includes both burners, the PIZZELLO, sits fifth. Whatever is driving those sales, it is not the completeness of the multi-fuel kit.

What Each Step Up Actually Buys

The 12-inch pellet ovens — WOOCIT and VEVOR 12-inch. About 20 to 26 pounds, a 12-inch pizza, pellets credited in words. The WOOCIT buys a stated 12mm stone, pellet advice and a peel, with the burner extra and the lowest heat claim. The VEVOR buys a 1000°F claim and a carry bag, with no stone mentioned and the burner not itemised.

The 16-inch portables — BIG HORN, PIZZELLO, Ooni, Gozney. Stepping up buys a 16-inch class pizza and, on three of the four, a hotter claim: 950 to 1112°F. The BIG HORN buys the most heat and a 2-year warranty; the Ooni buys three fuels, a digital thermometer and a glass door; the Gozney buys gas from day one; the PIZZELLO buys both burners in the box at a lower 752°F. All four stay in the 33 to 49 pound range where they are stated.

The big ovens — KOSTCH, Empava, VEVOR 26-inch, Coyote. This step buys area and a built-in burner. The KOSTCH buys a stated 740 square inch cooking area by our arithmetic, a regulator, CSA certification and a 3-year warranty; the Empava buys three fuels, 46,000 BTU and a 1.25-inch firebrick floor; the VEVOR 26-inch buys two 12-inch pizzas at a time; the Coyote buys a seamless dome and an outdoor-kitchen pedigree on a thin listing. It costs heat on two of them, and 143 pounds or more on the three that state a weight.

The burner is the hidden step. On the Ooni, BIG HORN and WOOCIT, the second fuel is a separate purchase. On the Gozney, the wood option is. When you compare a portable that includes both burners with one that does not, compare the complete set, not the oven alone.

What to Check Before You Buy

Count the Fuels the Listing Names

Two or three per oven here, never more. Wood, pellets, charcoal, propane, natural gas: write down which the listing names in words. A fuel that is not named is not promised. On this page charcoal appears twice, pellets six times and natural gas never.

Find Out Which Burner Is in the Box

Three listings say the gas burner is sold separately: Ooni, BIG HORN and WOOCIT. The Gozney’s wood burner is optional. The PIZZELLO includes both. The VEVOR 12-inch does not say. If you want both fuels on the first night, this is the line to check, and the seller is the person to ask where the listing is silent.

Match the Gas to Your Supply

Every listing that specifies its gas says propane, and none names natural gas. If you plan to run an oven from a patio gas line, none of these listings commits to it. Any conversion is done only per the manual or by a qualified gas technician, never improvised.

Read the Maximum Temperature, Then the Time

Stated maximums run from 720 to 1112°F. The Ooni ties its 15-minute figure to its maximum; the BIG HORN, VEVOR 12-inch and WOOCIT quote 15 minutes to a lower working temperature. An infrared thermometer guide lets you check the floor, which is what bakes the base, rather than the air.

Check the Cooking Surface, Not Just the Name

A 16-inch name usually describes the pizza, not always the stone. The BIG HORN and PIZZELLO state a 16-inch stone; the WOOCIT gives 12 x 12 inches and 12mm; the KOSTCH gives 25.1 x 29.5 inches; the Gozney, Coyote and VEVOR 26-inch give no stone size; the VEVOR 12-inch mentions no stone. Leave room to turn the pizza, and a peel that fits the opening; our pizza peel roundup helps there.

Weigh It Against Where It Will Live

Stated weights run from 20.3 to 176.37 pounds. Under about 50 pounds, one or two adults can move it to the car. Above 140, it needs wheels and a permanent spot. Two listings give no weight; ask before you plan to carry one.

Plan the Space and the Safety Before It Arrives

Every one of these ovens is for outdoor use only, on a stable non-combustible surface, with clearance from walls, fences and anything that burns. Have a soapy-water leak test ready for the gas side, somewhere safe to let the oven cool fully, and a metal bin for cold ash from the wood or pellet side.

Common Mistakes

  • Assuming multi-fuel means both fuels in the box. Three of ten sell the gas burner separately, and the Gozney sells its wood burner as an option.
  • Planning to run it on natural gas. None of the ten listings names natural gas; every specified gas is propane.
  • Converting gas types yourself. Propane-to-natural-gas changes are done only per the manual or by a qualified technician.
  • Crediting pellets where the listing does not. Four of ten, Ooni, Gozney, Coyote and Empava, never say pellets.
  • Reading a 15-minute preheat as time to maximum. The BIG HORN’s 15 minutes is to 300°C; its stated maximum is 1112°F.
  • Taking the pizza size as the stone size. The VEVOR 12-inch is sold as 12 inch and never mentions a stone.
  • Using a multi-fuel oven indoors or in a garage. Every fuel here makes carbon monoxide; these ovens are outdoor only.
  • Moving or covering it while warm. Floors that reach 720 to 1112°F hold heat for hours; let it cool fully.

Who Should Buy Which

Buy the Ooni Karu 2 Pro if you want wood and charcoal now and gas later. Three fuels named, 950°F in a stated 15 minutes, a mounted digital thermometer and a glass door, at 33.73 lb. Budget for the gas burner, which is sold separately.

Buy the BIG HORN 16-inch if pellets are the point. The highest stated heat here, 1112°F, a 16-inch stone, an adjustable air plate on the pellet chamber, a 2-year warranty and the best rank on the page. Gas is a later purchase.

Buy the KOSTCH 32.5-inch if you want a large patio oven with paperwork. A stated 25.1 x 29.5 inch cooking area, 35000 BTU burner with regulator, CSA certification and a 3-year warranty. Accept 800°F and 143 lb.

Buy the PIZZELLO 16-inch if you want both burners in one box. Propane and wood burners, 16-inch stone, peel and bag all included. Accept 752°F and no stated weight or warranty.

Buy the Empava if you want three fuels on a big oven. Gas, wood and charcoal, a 46,000 BTU burner and a 1.25-inch firebrick floor. Accept 163.2 lb and the weakest rank here.

Buy the Gozney Roccbox if you will cook mostly on gas. Gas standard, wood optional, 950 degrees claimed. Accept 48.45 lb, no stated stone size and no stated warranty.

Buy the VEVOR 12-inch if you want a light, hot oven and will check two things first. 1000°F and 24.03 lb, sold by Amazon.com. Ask about the propane burner and the stone before ordering.

Buy the Coyote 30-inch only after reading the manufacturer’s documents. Propane and wood, 31k BTU, a seamless dome; the listing gives no weight, floor or warranty.

Buy the VEVOR 26-inch if you want two pizzas per bake. Pellets and propane, two 12-inch pizzas at once, on wheels. Accept 750°F, 176.37 lb and a 22-versus-26-inch discrepancy to confirm.

Buy the WOOCIT 12-inch if you want the lightest pellet oven here. 20.3 lb by its bullet, a 12mm stone and pellet advice in the listing. Accept 720°F and a burner sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best multi fuel pizza oven?

For most buyers, the Ooni Karu 2 Pro. It names three fuels, wood, charcoal and gas, states 950°F in 15 minutes, has a mounted digital thermometer and a full glass door, and weighs a listed 33.73 pounds. Its listing is also the clearest on the page about how multi-fuel works: wood or charcoal out of the box, gas once you buy the Ooni gas burner, which is sold separately. If you want pellets rather than wood and charcoal, the BIG HORN 16-inch states the highest heat here, 1112°F, with a 16-inch stone and a 2-year warranty, and it holds the best Best Sellers Rank of the ten. If you want a large patio oven with the burner built in, the KOSTCH 32.5-inch gives a stated cooking area, a regulator, CSA certification and a 3-year warranty.

What is the best dual fuel pizza oven with both burners included?

On this page, the PIZZELLO 16-inch is the only portable oven whose listing says both burners are in the box: a propane burner and a wood burner, along with a 16-inch stone, a stainless steel peel and a waterproof carry bag. Its trade-offs are a lower stated heat, 752°F after 25 to 30 minutes, and no stated weight or warranty. Among the big ovens, the KOSTCH, Empava and Coyote all state a burner output in BTU, so the gas side is built in, and the solid-fuel side needs only fuel. The VEVOR 26-inch describes connecting a gas tank directly. By contrast, the Ooni, BIG HORN and WOOCIT sell the gas burner separately, and the Gozney sells its wood burner as an optional attachment. The VEVOR 12-inch does not say either way.

What is the best pellet pizza oven here?

We credit pellet use only where a listing says it, and six of the ten do: the BIG HORN 16-inch, the KOSTCH 32.5-inch, the PIZZELLO 16-inch, both VEVORs and the WOOCIT 12-inch. Of those, the BIG HORN describes its pellet side best, with a larger combustion chamber and an adjustable air-intake plate, and it states the highest heat on the page, 1112°F, with a 16-inch stone. The WOOCIT is the lightest pellet option, 20.3 pounds by its bullet, with a 12mm stone and advice to use only dry, all-natural hardwood pellets. The KOSTCH pairs pellets with a built-in 35000 BTU propane burner on a large floor. The Ooni, Gozney, Coyote and Empava name wood or charcoal but never pellets, so pellet use on those is not confirmed by their listings.

Can a multi fuel pizza oven run on natural gas?

None of the ten listings here names natural gas. Every listing that specifies its gas says propane, and the Ooni, Gozney and Empava fuel lists simply say gas. None describes a natural gas model, a conversion kit or the parts a conversion usually needs. So on the evidence of these listings, you should treat all ten as propane or unspecified gas appliances. If you have a natural gas line on your patio, check the manufacturer’s manual and documentation before buying. A conversion between propane and natural gas involves different pressures and burner parts, and it must only ever be done as the manual describes, with the manufacturer’s parts, or by a qualified gas technician. Never improvise a connection, and leak-test every connection with soapy water before lighting.

Is wood or gas better in a multi fuel pizza oven?

They do different jobs, which is the reason to buy a multi-fuel oven at all. Gas lights at the turn of a knob, holds a steady flame and needs no fuel management, which suits weeknights and beginners. Wood, pellets and charcoal give a live fire with smoke and flavour, but they need feeding, airflow control and ash disposal. The listings here sell exactly that split: the PIZZELLO talks about gas for quick dinners and wood when the evening is long. No listing ties its maximum temperature to one fuel, so you cannot tell from these pages which fuel reaches the stated figure. Our wood-fired and propane guides cover each fuel on its own; for a multi-fuel oven, check which of the two is in the box on day one.

How hot do multi fuel pizza ovens get?

The ten listings here state maximum temperatures from 720°F on the WOOCIT to 1112°F on the BIG HORN. The VEVOR 12-inch and Coyote claim 1000°F or 1,000 degrees, the Ooni, Gozney and Empava 950°F or more, the KOSTCH 800°F, the PIZZELLO 752°F and the VEVOR 26-inch 750°F. A domestic oven typically stops around 500°F, so all ten claim far more. Read the preheat claims carefully: five listings give a 15-minute figure, but only the Ooni plainly says that is the time to its maximum. The BIG HORN’s 15 minutes is to 300°C, and the VEVOR 12-inch’s to 600°F. None ties its maximum to a fuel. To know what your floor is actually doing, measure it with an infrared thermometer.

Are multi fuel pizza ovens safe to use?

Yes, when used as the manual directs and always outdoors. Every fuel these ovens burn, wood, pellets, charcoal and gas, produces carbon monoxide, so never use one indoors, in a garage, shed, tent, camper or any enclosed or partly enclosed space. Place it on a stable, non-combustible surface with clearance from walls, fences, railings, overhangs and anything combustible, using the distances in the manual. Leak-test every gas connection with soapy water before each use and whenever you change the cylinder. Fit only the manufacturer’s burner and regulator, and leave any propane or natural gas conversion to the manual or a qualified gas technician. Swap fuels only when the oven is cool, and let it cool fully before covering, moving or storing it. Only the KOSTCH states a safety certification, CSA.

Is a large or a portable multi fuel pizza oven better?

It depends on where it will live and how many pizzas you make. The portable ovens here weigh a stated 20.3 to 48.45 pounds, cook one pizza at a time at 12 or 16 inches, and include the hottest claims on the page. The big ovens weigh 143 to 176.37 pounds where stated, come on wheels or a stand, and offer far more floor: the KOSTCH states a 25.1 by 29.5 inch cooking area and the VEVOR 26-inch fits two 12-inch pizzas at once. They also build the gas burner in, while three of the portables sell it separately. The trade-off is heat on two of them, 750°F and 800°F, and a permanent patio spot. Popularity, by Best Sellers Rank, sits firmly with the portables: the six small ovens hold the six best ranks.

Ten ovens call themselves multi-fuel, and the word covers at least four different products. Three are solid-fuel ovens with a gas burner sold separately. One is a gas oven with an optional wood burner. One portable puts both burners in the box. The big ovens build the burner in and add a pellet, wood or charcoal option. Count the fuels each one names and you get two or three, never more; count the ones that work on day one and the numbers shrink.

Natural gas appears nowhere, charcoal twice and pellets six times. If you want pellets, credit them only where a listing says so. If you want natural gas, none of these listings promises it, and any conversion belongs to the manual or a qualified technician. If you want charcoal, only the Ooni and Empava name it.

Then read the numbers with the burner in mind. Stated heat runs from 720 to 1112°F, weight from 20.3 to 176.37 pounds, cooking surface from a 12-inch square stone to a 25.1 by 29.5 inch floor. And whatever you choose, it is an outdoor appliance only, with clearance from anything that burns, leak-tested gas connections and a full cool-down before you touch it.

If you buy one oven from this page, make it the Ooni Karu 2 Pro: three fuels named, 950°F in a stated 15 minutes, a digital thermometer and a glass door, with a clear statement that gas is a separate burner you can add when you are ready. If pellets come first, the BIG HORN 16-inch claims the most heat and the best rank; if you want a large patio oven ready for propane and pellets, the KOSTCH puts the most in writing.
