I have a friend and fellow potter who is looking to buy a new electric =
kiln. In her research, she's noticed that AIM kilns appear to be =
substantially cheaper. So the questions are:
1. Anyone out there that can give some feedback on AIM kilns, service, =
etc?
2. Anyone want to comment on electric kilns in general to a first time =
new kiln buyer? What would you recommend?
My friend has a long history of firing with gas at ranges between cone 5 =
and 10.

Hi, I purchased an Aim kiln a couple of years ago. It was their small
one that runs on 120vac. I just wanted it for testing glazes on small
tiles. It was significantly less expensive than the others. I
bought it through Baily Pottery. The kiln was shipped quickly and
came in perfect condition. I had a problem initially firing the kiln,
it wouldn't fire to cone 6. I called Aim directly, talked to a real
live person who suggested some possible reasons. I checked my voltage
while the kiln was on and found the voltage dropped below 110vac. I
called Aim back and told them what I found. They cut me a new element
to compensate for my low voltage and sent it out free of charge. Since
that time the kiln has worked flawlessly. I am very happy with the
kiln and the company as I feel they went way out of their way to
correct a problem that wasn't in any way their fault. Hope this helps.
