The standard Ikon V61 — a 61-litre, 1315°C stoneware kiln made by hand in Stoke-on-Trent. It's the workhorse of the Ikon range: a hardwired 15A version with the full 3.6kW of power for confident, repeatable firings.
Includes a free Ikon V61 furniture set (worth £150) — shelves and props ready for your first firing.
Free UK mainland delivery. Lead time is typically 8–10 weeks from order, hand-built to order in Stoke-on-Trent.
The Ikon V61 sits at the heart of Kilncare's top-loading range — same 61-litre chamber as the V61E and V61 GXR, but with the full 3.6kW driven through a hardwired 15A supply. If you've got an electrician lined up and want every ounce of performance the Ikon platform can deliver, this is the version to pick.
The extra power matters most when you're firing tightly packed loads of stoneware or porcelain. Ramp rates are quicker, top-end soaks are more reliable, and you've got real headroom at 1315°C for adventurous glaze work — reductions, crystallines, or anything that needs to sit confidently at cone 10. The chamber, lid, controller and warranty are identical to the rest of the Ikon family; the difference is what's behind the wall socket.
If you'd rather plug straight into a 13A socket, look at the V61 GXR (the high-efficiency plug-in version) or the V61E (the 1200°C plug-in for earthenware and mid-range stoneware). Not sure which one fits your studio? Call us on 01206 648 025 — we'll talk it through, no pressure either way.
The Ikon range uses Kilncare's GX high-efficiency insulation system — three layers of refractory and micropore brick that keep heat in the chamber where you want it. The result is faster firings, lower running costs, and a kiln body that's only warm to the touch even at peak temperature.
British-designed, 32 fully editable programs with 32 segments each. Up to 4-day delayed start, kWh display, power-failure recovery, and a keyboard lock. The optional WiFi upgrade adds the Kilncare GATEway app so you can watch a firing from the sofa or the studio next door.
Kanthal A1 elements (widely regarded as the best on the market), twin gas-sprung lid, lockable swivel castors, and a 304 brushed-stainless body. Every Ikon is hand-built by Kilncare in Stoke-on-Trent, with a 3-year warranty on all parts excluding elements.
Every Ikon V61 order from Kiln Crafts ships with a free V61 furniture set (3 shelves, 12 assorted props — worth £150) and free UK mainland delivery.
