Miracle Fiber, September 24, 2022 5 stars

Pros
Easy to Use Creates great texture No mess/No Fuss

Cons
Creates a texture and shows seams, so that has to be a desired results

Other Thoughts
I just started playing with this amazing materials about a month ago. Makes working with the kiln to "cook" glass so easy. Great for newbies who want to get started but don't care that one size will pickup the mat texture.

Cap it! Just Beautiful, September 2, 2022 5 stars

You really need to cap it with clear to get best results.

Slumped by first plate after fusing it with clear. A+ results

Pros
Easy to install Good Customer Support Easy to use

Doesn't have some updated bevel patterns to use.

Great results so far, May 20, 2022 5 stars

Pros
Super easy to use Great results with minimal fuss

Cons
None so far

Other Thoughts
I've had this kiln for about 9 months now and just started firing it up in my studio when I got an electrical upgrade. I'm a total novice to fusing/slumping but the computer interface on this is super simple and even I could figure it out. 3 projects done and it's working great. Comes with loads of presets to tack/fuse/slump 90 and 96 COE glass.

Holds up through winter, September 22, 2021 5 stars

Pros
Ideal for 14" round mold with no measuring Sets up fast Works as described

Cons

Other Thoughts
I gave up making stepping stones for a bit because of durability issues with the stones (diamondcrete) 10 years ago. This stuff seems better and when coated after 30 days with concrete sealer, they have lasted so far through 2 winters without cracking.

Easy-On Foot Switch

I can't believe I didn't think of buying this soon, May 11, 2021 5 stars

Pros
Easy to Use Frees your hands for work

Cons
Slight time delay between pressing and activation

Other Thoughts
I can't believe it took me decades to figure out I needed to buy one of these. This makes grinding glass so much easier and hastle free. I just walk up to the grinder with glass in hand, step on the pedal as I walk up, and by the time the glass hits to work surface it's at full RPM. Highly recommend!
