Designed for Space-Sensitive Studios
The 3" firebrick layer provides solid insulation, helping maintain stable firing temperatures while keeping the exterior cooler to the touch. The hexagonal chamber makes efficient use of every inch, so you can arrange test tiles, jewelry components, and tiny sculptures without awkward gaps.
What You Can Fire with the ET911
- Low- to mid-fire clay bodies (up to Cone 6) — ideal for glaze testing, pendants, and small ceramic pieces
- Glaze tests and small-batch projects scheduled on your timetable, freeing larger kilns for larger work
Outlets, Setup, and Space Considerations
Operates on a standard 120V outlet, making it suitable for home studios and classrooms. It draws 15A and requires a 20A breaker, facilitating straightforward integration without special wiring.
Why the ET911 Stands Out
With a compact footprint (17" W x 20.5" D x 24" H) and a weight of 120 pounds, this kiln delivers reliable firing capabilities in tight spaces. The intuitive 3-key control focuses your time on making rather than programming, while ConeFire and RampHold provide repeatable results across multiple sessions.
