Create Confidently with the ET18 18x18 Pottery Kiln - 3" Firebrick

Skip the guesswork and get back to creating. The ET18 combines straightforward controls with reliable performance, featuring five preset programs plus the flexibility to customize your own firing schedules. The 17.5" octagonal chamber with 18" depth gives you room to fire those dinner sets or multiple batches of mugs you've been working on.

Looking for steady, repeatable results? The heat-reflective stand and thick brick construction work together to maintain consistent temperatures from base to top, helping prevent those frustrating cold spots or uneven glaze results. Whether you're firing functional pieces for a restaurant order or prepping for your next gallery showing, this kiln delivers professional results without overcomplicating the process.

Trust Your Process with the Cress 1818 Pottery Kiln

Long studio days feel more productive when you know your kiln has your back. Stack up yesterday's trimmed pieces, arrange today's greenware, and plan tomorrow's glazing knowing the ET18's consistent firing means fewer surprises when you open that lid. The electronic controller remembers your favorite firing schedules, letting you focus on perfecting that new glaze technique or mastering those challenging pulled handles.

Your octagonal chamber welcomes the variety of a potter's creative practice - from those pour-over coffee drippers and ramen bowls to elegant bud vases and serving platters for your online shop. No need to split up matching sets or play favorites with which pieces make it into today's firing. Load it up, set your program, and get back to what you love most - creating at your wheel or work station.
