Although I would have to look at it, etc. to "really" determine if it were a good deal or not.   As long as it is in good shape and working properly - also has digital control, I'd say you got a good deal.

As for your travelling - package it up in a box securely and check it in - don't actually carry it on the plane - that way you won't have security issues.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for your help.  She's come down to $250.  Now I have to get a transformer to knock the power down to 110v from 240v.  I priced new kilns in Oz and am astounded at the  high prices!  I think we need some serious competition over there to keep prices more realistic.  Anyone game?

Hello,

I worke with a Chili Pepper too and I use a transformer to knock the power down to 110v from 240v. The Chili Pepper is a lightweight Kiln and easy to transport, but the transformer is heavyer then the kiln.
I have a second small Kiln, which ist gut to carry and have a small power consumption. You can see a picture on my webside.

Have a greet day

Wendy - you can always purchase what is called a "field kit" later on.  Basically it's a digital controller that you plug your kiln into and then plug the controller into the electric.  That's what I use since I purchased a kiln that did not have the controller to start with, then Later I got the digital controller.   I personally think this is better because if something happens to the controller, I can still use my kiln and just control it manually. 

Have a great day!
