I’ve had my Outdoor cove sauna for a…

I’ve had my Outdoor cove sauna for a month now. Probably one of the best purchases of my life. There were several hiccups trying to order, but Jessica in customer service was super helpful and responded quickly and promptly.
The build was super easy. Hardest part was putting in a level platform/pad. The only downside was the light it comes with, so I bought a cheap outdoor light and it’s been fine.
I use it almost everyday. It takes about an hour to heat up and I’ve gotten close to 210 degrees.
Anyone looking to get a real wooden sauna, this one is ideal.

Pickup availability took a long time

Pickup availability took a long time. Frustrated with the instructions and confusing problems that developed during trouble ticket 1232512, review that and see how much time I spent trying to work through the problems.

The heater is missing screws and that is an ongoing process to try and get the manufacturer to send them out to me.

A fair amount of work locating an outdoor electrical box for the electrician. Feel free to call if you’d like additional information.

Hopefully next week I’ll finally have it up and running. So, yes, I’m frustrated.

It met my expectations

It met my expectations! I have been looking at sauna's for many years. Including this company for approximately 2 years just on its own. Every facet from communication, sales, and delivery was amazing. Being a plumber,light electrical contractor made the install a breeze. I knew from the start,in order for this to work in my area,I needed to reverse the door wall. It worked out perfectly.

high quality sauna

high quality materials. came in a wonderful crate to protect everything. very minor imperfections to wood. only complaint is the screws are terrible made in China quality and many of the heads broke off. had to redrill holes and use deck screws that I had on hand. also the instructions could mention one thing better.....you end up with two pieces of spare siding that they ship in case there is damage. it would be good to mention that prior to putting the sauna together as I was saving those particular pieces for the top as they were beautiful and perfect and ended up not being able to use them. other than that great experience.

I hope sauna is better than the service

We ordered the sauna and starter kit and knew it was on backorder, but no one reached out to us to keep in contact on how long this would be. We got minimal help from the staff and the tracking numbers were wrong. We had to do a lot of the tracking ourselves. Additionally, when our starter kit did not get delivered, the staff said they would send another one. They never did and I had to contact them again before anyone sent a replacement. I hope the sauna is better than the service.

Outdoor Garden Sauna

I am thoroughly enjoying my Outdoor Gargen sauna! It’s just for me but I love how I can recline on the bench with plenty of room! Currently, temp gets to 182 degrees at head level with the touch pad set at 170 degrees! ( I moved the sensor closer to head level). If set to max temp of 294, it will get to 205 degrees (too hot for me at this time). I use the sauna 5 times a week for 2 15 minute sessions. Lots of hydration and electrolytes! Don’t forget the wool sauna hat and wool briefs! Very glad I went with a traditional sauna!

We made a family event of assembling our sauna. Taken in stages, we had fun laying out the parts, figuring out how things fit together properly and making sure we understood the intended outcome each step of the way. We took our time over the weekend and were in no rush. If we had to disassemble something we had already done, like putting the benches in before we installed the floor, we took a break and went back to it, understanding how we could make the parts fit better together. When you are this close to finishing, you have to remember to breathe and read the directions again. A word of advice: don't over-torque the screws, just in case you have to take them out again.

Thank you for sharing this! We absolutely love hearing how your sauna assembly became a family experience rather than just a project.

Your approach with taking your time, working through each stage together, and enjoying the process along the way—is exactly the mindset that makes for the best build experience. We also appreciate you sharing your tips and advice for future sauna owners.

Thank you again for your support, and we hope your sauna brings your family many relaxing and memorable moments for years to come!
