Default To Clad or To Not Clad

Hi:

I have seen various discussions on here regarding cladding and I am trying to decide what to do.

The benefits seem to be more resistance to cracking and extra thermal mass. The negatives seem to be extra thermal mass (longer heat up times) and maybe a wasted step with regards to time and materials for something that isn't required.

So just looking for some discussion on this. Right now the exterior of my oven is nice and clean with no excess mortar and is almost complete.

Thanks


Julian
