Incredible experience

First of all, regardless of the product I bought, this company is absolutely amazing. So helpful, so kind, so caring. Through the whole process, from thought to after delivery they were helpful and listened. This kiln is so amazing. I am a hobby potter but I also make a lot of pieces so it really does fit a lot. I just did my first bisque and everything came out so well. And even though the max is 5.5 kwh I actually use not do that much on every firing like I thought it would be so it was much more energy efficient than I was expecting. Amazing!!!!

Amazing service and product

I don't normally write reviews but I just wanted to say how great the team is at Hot Clay. Super helpful with any questions you have over the phone and very informative. As for the kiln - so far I'm in love!!! Works like a dream and the app you can get on your phone that connects you to your kiln at all times is amazing (I love knowing what temperature its at when I'm away from the studio). Amazing purchase and great experience!!

Excellent

Purchased my Nabertherm top 80 just before Christmas, excellent coordination & service, arriving exactly on time and very helpful delivery service, brought the kiln through the garden to my shed. The kiln controller was a lot easier to understand the basics than I thought.

Hot clay were the cheapest all round with the free delivery that I could find.very helpful and good service, thank you.

Hot Clay were amazing, answering all my questions and giving really helpful advice which often involved my spending less money not more - really honest. They know everything about everything for the beginner/intermediates like me and patiently explain.

My new kiln is just fantastic, it is so easy to use, feels really safe and reliable. I have carried out 3 bisque and glaze firings since buying it and every one has been a great success. There is just the right amount of furniture to do a great range of things. The instructions that come with the kiln are very clear and useful.

I am as pleased as punch.
