Heat Imbalance
Coming from the original Ooni Volt, which I had no issues with, the Volt 2 appears to overheat the stone during preheating. This can result in the first one or two pizzas developing an overly charred base. Other users have suggested that the supplied stone is part of the issue and have reported significantly better results with third party alternatives. However, I’m reluctant to go down that route, as using a non-approved stone could potentially invalidate the warranty. Aside from that, the Volt 2 produces pizzas that are noticeably closer to a traditional Neapolitan style than the original Volt. Crust rise is improved throughout, and the leoparding is much more consistent and pronounced. My final criticism is that, for an indoor oven, the underside becomes extremely hot during use. The heat transferred to the work surface can make some countertops uncomfortably warm. It would be good to see Ooni offer an approved heat mat or similar accessory to provide additional protection for sensitive surfaces.

Disappointed
It does make great pizza but in 2 months of having the machine we are on our 3rd stone and have had to replace the whole machine because the fan stopped working. While making pizza last week the door glass shattered- maybe we have just been unlucky but I have asked the retailer for a refund now

Love it. First pizza always
Love it. First pizza always burns on the bottom if you start too high but then crank it for the rest. No turning, no fuss, no problems with the wind or rain. You have to open windows but you get pizza that tastes basically like a wood fired oven. The timer control is clunky but you can at least clearly see through the front glass.

I’m very satisfied with my purchase.
I’m very happy with my Ooni Volt 2 overall. The oven performs extremely well, heats up quickly, reaches the high temperatures needed for Neapolitan-style pizza, and gives me results that I simply couldn’t achieve with my regular home oven.

As an Ex professional Boulanger
As an Ex professional Boulanger (baker) I can say that for I am impressed with the quality of the oven. I would add that I would like to see the inside height of the oven to be a bit bigger. Why? Well as I said I was in the bread baking business, and so I'd like to see the ooni oven being a bit more multi functional. Add a steam option along with that, and then you could bake some decent pain au levain/baguettes and some brioche.

Next level compared to cheap Amazon ovens.
Fantastic product. Works wonderfully. Temperature control has been great. Presets work great. Proofing function is super handy. User interface is intuitive and easy. Really well built and quality product imo (I bought a cheap oven before and quickly found its caveats) the ooni is another league. I bought it primarily for convenience and wanting to cook/create authentic Neapolitan/contempory Neapolitan pizza. And it really does do a superb job. Any shortcomings are my own fault in that respect. My only one gripe with it is perhaps the lack of top and bottom element control. And having to use the ovens ‘crispyness’ setting to alter the cooking process. It’s intended as a more hands off ‘smart’ oven where most people can get really great results without much interference or thinking. And it does work for that. The app is also decent with lots of ideas/recipes and dough calculator. So far I’ve made Detroit pizza with their Detroit pan as it fits perfectly in the volt 2. Focaccia and Neapolitan a handful of times. With some great results. Overall. A decent bit of kit at consumer level.

The pizza that come out
The pizza that come out are fantastic. I have an outdoor electric oven made by others but the Ooni is superior. One issue is my pizza stone cracked in half but Ooni replaced it free very quickly. I love it. It is quite expensive but making pizza is a hobby and I enjoy our pizza nights.

Volt 2 - great gadget
Great product. Doesn’t take an unreasonable amount of time to preheat. But cook is excellent. I have the Ooni Karu 2 and previously Karu 1, it cooks to almost the same results without the need to keep topping wood. End result was a nice crispy base and nice charring around the crust. It has a much smaller footprint than expected and sits nicely in the corner of my kitchen. Great design, looks very professional. Looking for to trying other ideas in the oven.
