An Oval Chamber for Platters, Sculpture, and Long Pieces
The Cress EOT203023 is built for studios that fire regularly. Running on 240V, it has the power to reach high temperatures fast and hold them dead steady through long firing schedules.
The Cress EOT203023 is an EOT-Series oval kiln — the oval chamber gives you efficient loading for elongated pieces like platters, sculptural work, and longer ware that doesn't fit cleanly in a round chamber. Built on the same E-Series platform with Cress's heat-reflective stand.
The 20" W x 30" D oval chamber gives you 6.6 cubic feet of capacity — room for elongated work that wastes space in a round kiln — large platters, sculptural pieces, or long ware all fit efficiently.
It fires up to 2350°F (Cone 10 range), which covers the full ceramic spectrum — earthenware, stoneware, porcelain, and high-fire glaze work.
The EOT203023 runs on 240V — most home and small commercial shops have this available. Total draw is 11,500 watts at 48 amps.
Included with every order
heat-reflective stand (a Cress innovation — they were first to include this), full operator manual, a 3 year limited warranty through Cress, and free freight shipping to the US Lower 48.
You'll pick your digital controller at checkout. Cress kilns are designed around Bartlett-built controllers (Cress is part of the Bartlett family). Most buyers choose the Prodigy Touchscreen Smart Controller — a full-color touchscreen with intuitive ramp-and-hold programming, real-time monitoring, custom firing profile storage, and built-in safety diagnostics with over-temperature alerts and data logging. Not sure which controller fits your workflow? That's exactly the kind of thing we help with.
A note on lead time: Cress kilns are made-to-order at their facility in Carson City, Nevada, with current lead times running roughly 8-12 weeks. Give us a call before ordering and we'll confirm current production estimates.
