Review on 8-Gauge Skutt Kiln Thermocouple Type K Replacement Part - SK1515 by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Temperature registers are different than cones

I can't trust the digital part of a very expensive oven. The temperature I set is usually high enough to ruin pottery and shelves. I have to use control cones throughout the kiln and be present throughout the kiln to keep an eye on what is happening. Then when it automatically starts to hold normal I have to go down the cone and hold the temperature manually and I can't trust what it's telling me. No slow cooling, no ease of use. I paid $5,000 for a manual oven

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion
