Bought a cold plunge and sauna on October 3rd. I was told we could pick it up in Kent in November once the items came in. When we called to have it delivered instead we found out the cold plunge had been sold to someone else and our sauna was non wifi. We were told it might be March before we could get the products we already paid for months prior. They did find the stuff in Georgia and in their warehouse but we are still missing our cedar floor for the sauna we paid for in October. We are told it might be April by the time we receive it.

I love my Vista Outdoor Sauna

I love my Vista Outdoor Sauna. The glass wall gives me a beautiful view of distant mountains. It's almost like sitting outside, but with the fabulous sauna experience. I use the sauna most days during all seasons. It is wonderfully relaxing and refreshing.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m sorry to hear about the delivery experience and the missed appointments—that’s understandably frustrating.

While deliveries are handled by a third-party carrier, we do take these concerns seriously and work closely with our logistics partners to address issues like this when they arise. We’d be happy to look into what happened and assist in coordinating next steps. A member of our Customer Support Team will be reaching out shortly.

Updated: Sauna Was Fixed, Although With Plenty of Headache

We purchased this sauna at the end of October. It was delivered two weeks later. We assembled the sauna box and then we hired an electrician to wire it. We have a faulty heater so the sauna never properly worked. We have been trying to get this resolved with Redwood since mid November and still do not have a working sauna two months later. We have been calling almost every day to try to use our warranty to fix it and they have started to drop our calls.

UPDATE AS OF FEB: This issue was finally fixed and we have a working sauna. Now that it works we love the sauna. It just took a lot of headache to get the warrantied heater. I understand that Redwood is a small and new company and they are also partially having to deal with going through Harvia for the heater. They have communicated with us and have been very apologetic and helpful since.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m very sorry for how frustrating this situation has been, especially after the time and effort involved in delivery, assembly, and coordinating electrical work, only to be unable to fully use your sauna. I completely understand how disappointing that is.

I do want to assure you that your concerns have been received and that next steps have already been communicated. Our team is actively working toward resolution and moving this matter forward as quickly as possible.

We appreciate your patience and the opportunity to see this through.

Too Small For 6 Adults

Several pieces arrived damaged. I’ve also mentioned to Jared & the support team that this is NOT a 6-person sauna. We
Can fit 4 adults comfortably, but if we add any additional people they’ll be sitting where the heater is and will burn their legs.

Nice product, extremely difficult to move and assemble.

I think the quality of the product seems good. I had an issue with a piece of wood being split for the sauna and the Redwood team helped with reconciling this issue.

Redwood undersells how labor intensive assembling the sauna will be. It takes every bit of 7-8 hours with two people to assemble and it is very difficult.

They did also not properly relay that the delivery company will drop everything off on your driveway on pallets. We had to beg them to simply move the pallets into the garage. I then had to coordinate getting a very heavy (already assembled) cold plunge to the final location which took 5 people and a dolly to move.

When ordering they definitely undersold how difficult it would be to get everything assembled in the final location at your home.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that the overall product quality met your expectations and that our team was able to assist in resolving the issue with the split wood.

We also appreciate you sharing your perspective on the assembly and delivery process. While our sales team makes it a priority to walk through build requirements, curbside delivery, dimensions, and installation considerations in detail prior to purchase, we understand that the hands-on experience can still feel more demanding than anticipated once everything arrives onsite.

Your comments are helpful in reinforcing the importance of setting clear expectations and ensuring customers feel fully prepared for delivery day and assembly. We value this feedback and will continue to look for ways to improve how this information is communicated and reinforced throughout the purchasing journey.

Thank you again for choosing Redwood Outdoors and for sharing your experience.

Our investment in the Redwood Outdoors Sauna and cold plunge has been one we never regret. The saunas benefits are unrefuted, and there are lots of sauna distributors. Our order came promptly without any issues assembly went together good we did hit a few snags and any issues that we’ve had with our purchases Customer service has been fantastic and we would definitely order from them again. We have referred them to many of our friends and they have ordered them and are thrilled with the product.

Company has been terrific!

Company has been terrific. Had a small issue with the temperature not getting hot enough so I called, and Brad was great. We walked through it and realized I had placed the heat sensor too far from the heater which was limiting the temperature. Now seems to be working great.
