    If you have ever broken an object loading it in a top loading kiln you already understand the idea for a front loading kiln.  Front loading kiln allows ease of access for loading large sculptural works or other difficult to load items.
    The easy to load Paragon Front Loading Pottery Kilns will fire to Cone 10 and figuratively beyond due their thick insulation and high amperage elements.  The insulation on these kilns is so thick that on a cost per cubic foot basis the Paragon Front Loading Pottery Kilns are Paragon's most economical kilns for electrical consumption, however, front loading kilns are more expensive than traditional top loading kilns due to use thick wall bricks and structural steel needed for the complex kiln design.
    Due to the popularity of these kilns and the complexity of the kiln design please allow 4-6 weeks on average for delivery of Paragon Front Loading Kilns.
