Ooni's newest gas siblings, settled, and this time the gap is dramatic. The Koda 2 is a 14-inch, portable, built-in-thermometer gas oven at $499; the Koda 2 Max is a 20-inch, 95-pound dual-zone showpiece at $1,299. They share the same ~950°F ceiling and G2 burner tech, so this isn't a heat fight, it's a portable-everyman-oven versus a permanent-backyard-statement decision. We run both on our signature spine and tell you which Koda 2 is yours.
