Costco Quietly Sells This Ooni Pizza Oven Fan Favorite for Less Than Anywhere Else

Costco just dropped a bombshell deal on the Ooni Koda 16 pizza oven, selling it for $429.99 – a whopping $169 less than Ooni’s direct price. This beast heats up to 950°F in 20 minutes, churning out restaurant-quality Neapolitan pizzas in under 60 seconds. With its 16.5-inch cooking surface and 29,000 BTU output, it’s basically a pizzeria in your backyard. Members-only pricing varies by location, but the cooking possibilities stretch far beyond just pizza.

Every pizza enthusiast’s dream just got more affordable at Costco. The retail giant is quietly offering the coveted Ooni Koda 16 pizza oven for a mere $429.99 – that’s a whopping $169 less than buying directly from Ooni. And let’s be real, who doesn’t want restaurant-quality pizza in their backyard?

The Koda 16 isn’t messing around. This beast heats up to 950°F in just 20 minutes, turning your backyard into a legitimate pizzeria. With its 16.5″ x 16.5″ cooking surface and impressive 29,000 BTU output, it’s basically like having a small volcano at your disposal. The powder-coated carbon steel exterior means it can handle whatever Mother Nature throws at it. Many users recommend using an infrared thermometer for the best results. The outdoor cooking design makes it perfect for backyard gatherings and parties. Its stationary flame pattern ensures consistent heating from dome to deck for perfect results every time.

But here’s where it gets interesting. This isn’t just another one-trick pony pizza gadget. Sure, it’ll crank out perfect Neapolitan-style pizzas in under 60 seconds, but it’s also a champion at searing steaks and roasting vegetables. Running on propane (with an option to convert to natural gas), it’s like the Swiss Army knife of outdoor cooking.

Costco’s also carrying the smaller Koda 12 model – perfect for those who don’t need to feed a small army. It heats up even faster at 15 minutes but trades power for portability with its 13,000 BTU rating and more modest 13.25″ x 13.25″ cooking surface.

Fair warning though – there’s a learning curve. Users report some initial trial and error before mastering their pizza-making skills. But once you’ve got it down? Pure culinary magic. The cordierite stone guarantees perfect heat distribution, resulting in that coveted crispy crust that’ll make your local pizzeria nervous.

The catch? It’s a member-only item, and availability varies by location. Orders typically take 5-7 business days to arrive, and you’ll need to bring your own propane tank to the party. But at this price point, it’s worth jumping through a few hoops to get your hands on one.
