I have it and use it. The price was the reason why I got it and the possibility to use it as a rodwarmer once I was ready to buy a proper kiln. It is not my favourite product in my studio but I have learner to live with it. I always batchanneal since it is quite tricky to balance in the mandrels without the beads sticking to eachother or walls. And yes, the manual ramping up and down is truly a pain. Still glad I have it though.
