How to read a Showdown Score™
The only score that counts how often a product breaks, not just how owners feel about it.
- Three parts add up to the score: what owners rate it, how often it fails them, and whether a credentialed tester backed it.
- Bands: Exceptional 8.5 and up, Excellent 7.5, Very good 6.5, Good 5.5, Fair 4, Poor below 4. Every score is dated.
- Price, the warranty and what a link pays us stay out of it.

Pros
- Built-in precision digital thermometer in the base
- Premium Gozney build, insulation, and heat retention
- Rates above the Koda 2 Pro on its maker's page and on Amazon, and praised as the easiest to use
- Compact design, and Food & Wine called its results some of the most consistent in its tests
Cons
- 14-inch chamber — 4 inches smaller than the Koda 2 Pro at the same $799
- Gozney prints no preheat time; one tester took ~38 min to 900°F at the stone center
- Single rolling-flame burner — a bit more pizza-turning than the Ooni's dual burners
- Owner rating is strong but from a smaller review base
One owner, on 'precise temperature control': the only control is the flame, and it tends to overheat, which makes several pizzas in a row hard — and they would rather have saved the money on a Roccbox.

Record
- — Audit read: Gozney's own page 4.8 across 75 (it was 62 in June); Amazon 4.6 across 23 at $799.99, sold by Gozney. Preheat corrected: the card said 30 to 45 minutes and slower than the Ooni, which no test showed. Serious Eats timed the stone center to 900°F in about 38 minutes, Food & Wine measured 750°F in 24, and Tom's Guide saw 45 minutes on the first run and 20 to 30 after that. TechGearLab's 95 of 100 added.
- — Audit read: Amazon 4.6 stars across 22 (sold by Gozney, $799.99); the card still shows Gozney's own 4.8 across 62 from June, because 22 Amazon ratings is too thin to replace it.
