I was concerned about this as well. Looks like they are based out of Ohio with several different storefronts nationwide. They also have an A+ rated with the BBB.

I did attempt to have BBY (I have contact there) and Amazon to PM- neither would. I decided to use PayPal for the added security.

They've been around for years. We get their catalogs in the mail all the time. Sometimes they run 20% off promos, but it wouldn't stack with this.

I purchased this on the last $399 deal from Costco. Wife was skeptical that we "needed" a dedicated pizza oven. After one use, she has been converted. I also purchased a steel plate rather than using the included stone one - it keeps the heat much longer than stone. Perhaps it was overkill but I have to say it worked better because I spent extra. You can find them on eBay by searching "Ooni steel baking plate".

Is that a kit you buy to modify from propane or is it a specific model?

I have one of these - bought it directly from Ooni earlier in the year when they had a sale. Wife wasn't convinced until we used it a couple of times. The whole family loves it now though.
Dough is key. Make your own or buy fresh. Do not buy dough from the grocery store - it will suck. I have had very good luck buying dough from local pizza shops. Many of them will sell you their dough only which was made same day.
Also, you need to get your dough spread out thin and topping light before cooking otherwise it may not cook all the way through to the middle. One hack I learned is to heat up the stone to 900 degrees, then shut off the flames before launching your pie. Let it cook on the hot stone only for a minute or two and then turn the flames back on to finish it. This is a very successful technique for me since I can never get the family to take it easy on the toppings.

It's probably people who think this is ridiculously priced because they can get $2 frozen pizzas at Aldi.

I have the Koda 12. Thinking about upgrading to this, but need to see if I can sell the 12.

Best dough recipes for these ovens use Italian tipo 00 flour. Ideally Caputo. I use Caputo Red. Here's an example for 4 10-12" dough balls (or 2 14-16" dough balls):
1) 500 g flour
2) 1/2 tsp instant yeast (Caputo is best)
3) 12-16 g salt (start low and add more in future if 12 g isn't enough)
4) 300 g water around 80 F

Mix the dry ingredients together. Add water, mix until a shaggy dough forms. Knead for 8 min. Bulk ferment for 1.5 hr. Form dough balls, put in fridge for 1-5 days to cold ferment. Allow to warm up for 2 hours at room temp before making pizza. If you want to skip cold ferment, ferment at room temp for 4 hours instead.

Edit: other flours will not stand up to the super high temperature these ovens operate at; for instance, bread flour will burn very quickly. Similarly, tipo 00 flour won't brown at all in a regular home oven, but will appropriately brown in an 800-900 F pizza oven.
