Default Kiln question

Arrrgh, I've hardly been able to get on the newsgroup lately, I'm having
withdrawals! (I spend all my free time waiting for the baby to sleep so
I can make beads... I've finally gotten comfortable enough with my torch
to be productive! Yay!)

Anyway, I know this is a subject that gets hashed and rehashed
periodically, and yes, I have seen the recent threads on the Wetcanvas
boards, but I wanted to ask those folks here who have a bead kiln which
kiln they use, what they like about it, what they dislike about it, any
problems they've had, what they wish was different about it, why they
chose it in the first place, whether they would choose the same kiln
again or a different kiln, and why.

I can't afford a new kiln right now, but I am an obsessive comparison
shopper and I MUST buy a bead kiln by the end of the year... using my
top-loading fusing kiln to garage beads is killing my hands and my
energy budget.

Thanks for any input!
