Great kiln, perfect size for hobby potter, some Evenheat snafus

I originally ordered a doll kiln, but decided it was too small for my needs, settled on the Evenheat HF 1413HF, after calculating it would hold at least 8 of my very large mugs for a glaze firing. Discovered it actually holds about 10, which is great. Opted for the simplest Icon controller and I'm glad, it has just enough info for me to keep track of how each firing did, including the cost per firing, and the menu selection is super simple to choose and modify if I want to. Was surprised at the cost -- I'd heard horror stories of people swearing firing a kiln at home would break me financially for the energy costs, but once I fed in our local (admittedly low) utility rate and wattage, my bisque and glaze come out somewhere between $1.20 and $1.50 per firing. Nice! I'm quite happy with this size kiln, it isn't so big that I go weeks without being able to fill it, but is also compact enough that if I wanted to fire just a few pieces one week, it's easy to do without wasting a ton of empty space.

By far, the nicest thing about this size kiln is the firing time -- I can reliably now start it anytime in the morning, and unload it the next morning. That makes for very quick turnaround! Nice to know when I need to turn some things around for a show quickly.

The snafu from Evenheat was that they sent me the wrong size shelves for the kiln -- not once, but TWICE! Apparently a mis-labeling of boxes of kiln furniture at their warehouse? But I called them directly and emailed when I got the second wrong box, and they handled it quickly, even overnighting the corrected size.

Overall, happy with the purchase. Like the 2 year warranty, and Evenheat seems easy to work with if the need should arise. This is my first kiln and the ease-of-use is ideal for a newbie. The size means any future maintenance should be simple enough, so I would highly recommend this as a perfect-sized first kiln.

Excellent beginner wheel

I had been using a friends Artista for a few weeks when I decided to buy this one. I already knew, of course, what to expect. A great little machine! It is exactly what I need for my little home pottery station. Dealing with Soul Ceramics has been very satisfying. Thanks!

Soul Ceramics are Stars

Our Evenheat Kiln actually arrived earlier than the 6 - 8 weeks. Soul Ceramics communication was stellar. They kept us informed each step and answered our question promptly. The kiln has not been uncrated yet as we are moving. However it arrived completely intact. Honestly there is not a mark on the boxes
Once it is set up we have no doubt if we need assistance in any way that Soul Ceramics will provide it promptly. This company should be a model for customer satisfaction for all other companies. Would highly recommend this company, and hopefully our kiln!

Olympic Kiln 1818HE

I would absolutely recommend Soul Ceramic for purchasing an kiln. They answered all my questions in a timely manner, offered the best price, and had great communication in regards to production and shipment. Everything I ordered arrived in perfect condition. The kiln is easy to operate and every piece of greenware, ceramics, clay, and glass I have fired so far have looked beautiful!

Best decision ever!

The kiln came very quickly and in great condition. The three button panel is very easy to work with and the booklet is so detailed it wasn’t difficult to follow. I just got the calendar and I’ve already used it four times. All of my pieces have come out really pretty and handled the temperature very well. I highly recommend SoulCeramics and will definitely be coming back in the future. Thank you so much!!

Smooth and Easy Transaction

I purchased my new little kiln from Soul Ceramics and couldn’t be happier! I had read tons of “happy customer” reviews and now I’m one of those totally satisfied customers too! Their customer service is beyond compare. The weekly updates, postcards, and email follow-ups concerning the expected shipping dates was really appreciated. My kiln came even earlier than expected, which was a great surprise! I highly recommend Soul Ceramics. They were fabulous to work with!

Evenheat 22.5 KO

Kiln arrived earlier than expected by about 3 weeks! Freight company was a pleasure to deal with as was Soul Ceramics. Kiln in perfect condition and working great thus far ! I have heat treated two batches of O1 blades so far and it works flawlessly! Would purchase this kiln and from this company again.

great wheel for hobbyist

I like that this is a tabletop wheel as i’d rather throw standing up than seated. The wheel was shipped very securely. I can kind of feel the wheel slowing down a little when I’m centering, so i adjust the speed and it’s fine.

the wheel feels very well made and sturdy. i dont even plan to throw more than 5# at once on this wheel, so it suits my needs very well.

i wish the splash pan had some more clearance between it and the wheelhead, but otherwise it’s great, im happy with my purchase

Great customer service!

I received the Olympic MAS1823 HE and a vent system and I am very satisfied with my purchase. Soul Ceramics kept me updated on the delivery. The kiln was in stock so I received it 13 days after ordering! I just fired it up for the first time, so excited :)!!

Jen Ken 11/9 Kiln

Kiln arrived promptly unpacked and all is good. After throughly re reading all the information, I fired my very first bisque items. As a complete beginner to kiln use, I I have found this little kiln to be perfect. Im not sure upgrading the control panel was a good idea, as I will only be using this for basic ceramic creations, but I suppose that I have the option in the future to advance a little. Im so happy with my Kiln. Thank you Soul Ceramics!
