Meaningful differences
What changes the fit
| What changes | Current Model P+ | Current Model P | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Status | Current model | Last-chance model | This changes setup and daily operation more than the product's core physical job. |
| On-oven modes | Eight | Five core modes plus app recipes | This changes how many steps the user handles and how much of the routine is automated. |
| Published power | 1,750W | 1,750W | Both records show the same result for “Published power”, so this row does not separate them. |
What you give up
Every choice has a cost
If you choose Current Model P+
- Current's newer pizza-oven line has less long-term independent test history than Ooni or Breville.
If you choose Current Model P
- The app adds monitoring and custom cooks, but a stable Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection becomes another setup step.
