Paragon CT122822 Ceramic and Pottery Kiln
The Paragon CT122822 is a wide-chamber studio kiln delivering dependable cone-10 performance and generous capacity in a 12-sided design built for studios, classrooms, and production environments. Its 28" interior diameter × 22" depth (8.11 cu ft) provides impressive volume while keeping loads reachable — ideal for large platters, wide bowls, and full bisque or glaze batches where capacity and ease of loading both matter.
Three-inch firebrick walls, solid-state relays, and a vent-ready AOP base form the foundation of a kiln built for daily production. Sectional construction with twist-lock latches makes ring separation simple for maintenance or tight-space navigation, while the LiteLid spring system keeps the large lid light and manageable with one hand. A reversible firebrick floor and drop-down hinged switch box add long-term practicality to an already capable package.
Included with every order
Sentinel SmartTouch controller with cone-fire and ramp-hold programs, solid-state relays (SSR), vent-ready AOP base, and Paragon's 2-year warranty. Optional furniture kit (six 26" round shelves, assorted square posts, and kiln wash) and VentMaster kiln vent available at checkout.
