best / preferred kilns - value for money

[TracyP]

I am very new to glass fusing / slumping and have at present only attended a one day course which I really enjoyed.  I would like to take this up as a hobby initially but who knows in time whether this could become a little more serious ... I can live in hope ..  I want to invest in a kiln suitable for glass fusing, slumping and also PMC and wondered what people would recommend as a good kiln – not too small as I may want to attempt bowls etc later down the line.
 
I have been told the Skutt Hotstart Pro is a good startup kiln but any views would be greatly appreciated.  I really wouldn’t want to spend more than £750 but if there is a lot better model slightly more it might not be a problem. 

Any advice pros / cons would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks Tracy

Invest in more classes first.
