Apparently I was a very good girl this year because Santa brought me a Paragon Caldera kiln for Christmas!

My in-laws got it for me for Christmas because they knew I desperately wanted a kiln, but they had no idea what kind of kiln I needed. Honestly, I didn't (don't) either. They gave me the receipt and pretty much said here's your kiln, if it's not what you want, take it back and get exactly what you need. So here's my question...

Is this what I want/need for: #1 priority: annealing beads, and #2 priority: fusing small pieces? Do I have a better option for the amount of money they spent, or did they do fine getting me this one?

I did not get the bead collar with it, but if I decide to keep this one (with y'all's help) I will get that because it seems pretty necessary for the annealing aspect of it.

What do you think I should do?
