Customer Comment.... Hi Mike Here are some pics. You are welcome to use the pics, as long as there is no identifying name or location [except Austin, TX]. It took my experienced carpenter and myself two full days to assemble, plus a day and a half for the electrician to run a new box and the wiring. But it was worth it. The directions could have been more detailed for for both the sauna and wiring, but fortunately we all have experience in these skill sets. I'll chat with you again down the road I am sure. You are a 5 star person!!! Best regards --- Don

The packages ship really well and everything was in excellent condition off the truck. I would suggest making sure you have a perfectly level surface before beginning. Even though I was placing it on existing concrete I still used leveling mix because I wanted to put down a tile floor.

I did construct the entire thing by myself but I did need to use some braces and clamps to keep things level and square when I put the walls and door panel up. MAKE SURE you place the trusses equidistant from the edges or else the fascia won't go on right. I wasn't clear on how to attach the trusses to the ceiling so they are just screwed into the roof panels. Everything fit really nice, tight and precise which made construction a breeze. The electrician had no issues and the heater mounted just as it should.

All in all a well built easy to put together project. And support from Mike and his crew were superb when I needed it.

Thanks, Scott in Thousand Oaks, CA (Near Los Angeles)

Mike – here’s some pics. You may use them on your website, if you wish. I still have electrical and trim to finish, but the structure went up in two hours with one helper. Last ceiling panel (back, large rectangle) was the most difficult to get to lock in. I had such high ceiling height (10’) that was able to climb up top and maneuver the walls a bit from there and from helper on inside. Nice workmanship throughout. Maintained the clearance all around, even with the baseboard molding in place. I used about 3-1/2” clearance on the RH side of the heater & assumed that the 10-1/2” dim from bottom was measured to floor, not the duckboard. I’ll send more photos with trim detail and accessories installed. We are quite pleased, so pass my complements to the manufacturer.

Here’s the rest of the pics. The trim took longer (4 hrs total, 2 of us working) than the initial assembly. A chop saw and compressor with nail gun were used, as well. Can’t speculate the time involved if one tried this without such tools, but it would be considerable. None of the trim pieces are supplied ‘to length’ or with MITRE ends – probably too much slight variation in structure dims to be able to do this. The 5-sided design also presents more challenges than a square or rectangle, too. There’s plenty of material supplied and it’s well marked as to use and location. Made one bad cut, but there was enough extra that no problems came of it. We used fine finishing nails rather than staples in the gun. Results were pleasing, as you can see from the pics. The heater works fine – got to 165* in less than 30 minutes using about a ‘5’ (of ‘7’ available) setting. Anyway, that’s all I can think of for now. Great product with superb workmanship. The woods are clear & nicely grained. Use what you need on your website.

Hi Mike, I am very happy with the sauna was easy to assemble, and the CD is working. My grandchildren and I have been using the sauna every day. We can feel our skin is softer and lustrous we love it. I feel that I made a good decision with the sauna. Thank you.

Lilliy in Kissimmee, Florida (near Tampa, Lakeland, Sarasota and Orlando, FL)

Hi Mike. I wanted to send a couple pictures of our new sauna that was delivered this week! We are beyond happy with the quality, ease of use and exceptional customer service you have provided! You happily addressed all of my questions (and there were many!) and helped me choose the perfect sauna.

I am so happy that I went with the 3 person as I am able to stretch out and fully relax. I was skeptical to buy sight unseen but after speaking to you, it was clear that you knew your products! Delivery and set up were a breeze and we thank you for a wonderful buying experience. We will be sending referrals your way. Thanks again!

Shannon in Long Beach California (near Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego, CA)

I did a lot of looking before making a call to Saunas and Stuff. They were extremely friendly, informative and no pressure. It was refreshing. The sauna arrived quickly and was packaged excellently. I was delayed in assembling my sauna for about a week and called Sauna and Stuff to let them know in case there was an issue. He assured me that would not be a problem. We had a couple of minor issues with missing brackets for the stereo and a broken handle for the vent. I called Sauna and Stuff and had the parts in 3 days. The sauna was super easy to put together and only took about an hour. As a matter of fact, my twin daughters (14) put it together themselves. Only needing assistance with lifting the glass front panel. It is beautiful! There is plenty of room for the 4 of us, it heats up quickly, the stereo is a nice feature and I really enjoy the Chromotherapy lighting. I have been using the sauna every other day since I got it. My kids use it also. I would encourage anyone considering purchasing an infared sauna to give Saunas and Stuff a call. You will not be dissappointed.

Tracy in Winnemucca, NV (North East of Reno and Carson City, Nevada)

Mike, putting the sauna together was a snap and I had more than enough ceiling clearance. The only issue was the broken pin on the amp plug which you took care of expeditiously and promptly (and over a holiday I might add!) - thank you very much! Tremendous customer service!

As you can see from the pictures, we've placed it in our workout room in the basement. We use the unit practically every day if not twice. My wife is already feeling the health benefits from using it. We love using it very much. Thanks again!

Mike, Can't tell you how happy we are with the product we received! Have many pictures, will send soon....Thank You, Tom & Pam

Mike, Here are the pictures of the sauna as promised. Per your advise, I built a platform to accommodate the slope of the concrete patio on the 2nd floor of our home. During the assembly, I used my finish nail gun and it made things so easy!

Pam and I just love it and are very impressed by the quality of the workmanship and how everything was marked clearly for assembly even the fascia. We are really glad we went with the Tylo COMBI U8 heater unit, it is awesome! All that is left to do is apply the linseed oil to the outside (it's been raining).

Thank you, Tom and Pam in Hillsboro, Oregon (near Portland, North of Eugene, OR)

We just got our sauna the other day. Note to self: if you order a sauna during mud season in the northeast and it comes in the 5-10 days as advertised, you have to figure out alternative delivery as the roads are weight posted. The shipper was very accommodating and I decided to pick it up from the warehouse about 30 minutes away rather than them holding it upwards of 4-5 weeks. next time i'll order at a different time of year. It took us a little longer than an hour to set up, mostly as we were more interested in telling each other what to do rather than listening! Everyone has tried it out and we're loving it! Thanks so much!

Jim in Francestown, NH (near Concord, Nashua and Manchester, New Hampshire)

We love our new sauna. I was so impressed by the craftsmanship and attention to every detail. The unit was so carefully packaged that I don't think anything could have happen to it in shipping. It was very easy to assemble (less than 30 minutes with two people).

Every year, my wife gets poison ivy while working in her plantings and she usually suffers with it for several weeks because it just spreads on her arms, legs and sometimes her face. Many years she has had to go to the doctor for prescription medicine. As usual, she got her annual case of poison ivy. I told her to try the sauna, reluctantly she did and the poison did not spread like in past years. She has two small patches on her wrists and within 3-4 days of using the sauna, the patches were drying up. She was worried that by getting so hot in sauna would just make her itch and scratch more, but she really didn't scratch much at all. Well this experience has really sold her on the sauna and she uses it regularly.

Tom in Hamilton, Ohio (near Cincinnati, OH and Indianapolis, IN)

Mike, I apologize for the lateness of this, but I have been traveling a lot for work. Please feel free to post this on the web site. You guys were great to me. "The service at Saunas and Stuff was amazing. More companies should be just like you. The sauna was a breeze to put together, and the free shipping was especially nice. We had a bad electrical panel that was sent, but Mike and his staff helped us pinpoint the problem and sent us replacement parts very quickly. The sauna is up and running now and works like a charm. It's in my condo basement and is positioned so I can sweat out all my toxins and cellulite and watch tv at the same time. I would recommend Saunas and Stuff to anyone. A sauna is a great way to destress and to help fight infections and kill bacteria in your body."

Claudia K, Youngstown, Ohio (Near Cleveland and Akron, OH)

Our friend pretty much put it together - he thought the unit was well made and designed. He also complimented on the wood quality!!  The finished product is well thought out with trim precut.
 
The tylo heater kicks out the heat/steam just as we have used in many resorts around the world.  We are very pleased with our purchase!
 
We are Glad we ordered through you - you kept the process going even though we had hickup with our long driveway - well worth it!

Here is a picture of our finished sauna. To the left is an outside shower that we use year round. We used linseed oil and it seems to be doing good. Really brought out the wood color. Why the outside shower? We live in a nudist resort full time.

Just setup our new sauna in our basement rec room - took about 45 minutes to an hour with two people.

Very easy to put together and instructions were easy and right on. We used to pay to take infrared saunas across town - now the whole family can take advantage and never have to leave home. Best investment I have ever made in my family's health!

Bob in Springfield, MO (South of Kansas City and St. Louis, MO)

Wow! Last Saturday we spoke (1st time ever) with Mike in Florida by phone from our Rocky Mountain home. Wednesday our new sauna was delivered directly from California, and this morning (less than a week after first calling Mike) we enjoyed the benefits of 130 degrees of warmth and chromotherapy together! A helpful electrician ran a dedicated line, put an extra breaker in the electrical panel and a dedicated 20 amp surge protector. (Larger infrared saunas need a 20 amp outlet).

Our teenage son's friend last night exclaimed: "Wow, your home just got way cooler." (I think he meant warmer or perhaps "hot"). We started out looking at this Golden Design line of saunas because of a very small one my wife saw at Costco, and I quickly learned that the larger 66x66 corner unit is perfect for our use, and the best value I found anywhere after several hours of phone calls and internet research. And, others talked of 2-3 weeks delay at higher prices. Thanks Mike!

David in Farmington, UT (between Ogden and Salt Lake City UT)

Sorry it took so long. comments? I LOVE my sauna!!! :-) very convenient, easy operation, perfect for after exercising, in separate roomm so complete privacy, I had just gotten out when I thought of the pics. For reference...it's in an exercise room, exercise equipment (bowflex) in front of it, massage chair on the right, storage room door on left, door to the hallway on right.

Still haven't tried the steam yet; will have more comments after that.

Hi Mike, our sauna is assembled and in service. It is absolutely beautiful and we were really impressed at the quality of construction and how well the instructions were written. Everything fit perfectly!

I’ve included some pics for the website and will send in two emails since they are fairly large files. It looks great in our sunroom and we can view the pool giving it a nice ambiance. Thanks for all the advice you gave during our phone conversation

Happy New Year! Here finally some pictures of our Sauna.... We love it and use it frequently! Greetings from Michigan.

The outside cedar wood of the sauna has been treated with linseed oil, which is one of the protectants we recommend.

Pictured here is a very nice example of how beautiful an Infrared Sauna can look as part of a home bathroom. The perfect way to remove stress and get healthy at home.

Hi Mike- I am really enjoying my new hot rock sauna. Glad I found your website which is well organized and easy to use. Personal help and no additional charge for custom size ordering was a plus (actual sauna is 5' 11" wide). Order turnaround was very fast. Everything arrived as scheduled without missing pieces or damage. Assembly was easy for one person. Sections fit together perfectly and could be assembled from the inside which was important due to the wall to wall tight fit. The cedar wood is very clear, obviously select quality. Overall it has been an easy process for a high quality product at a good price. Thanks. Now time for a work out and a sauna!

Hi Mike, I put the sauna together which was very easy and it works great. I put in our exercise room where it fit perfectly. I use it almost every evening and feel great afterwards.

Best regards, Steve in Oak Harbor, WA (between Seattle and Mt. Vernon, WA)

Hi Mike, we enjoy our sauna! I was in there twice already. Everything works well. The radio/CD-player is great. We were really surprised about the good sound. The sauna also has a magazine rack, towel holders and cup holder inside. It took us (2 people) more than 1 1/2 hours, to assemble this big sauna! Just a suggestion: taking off the glass door (unscrew 4 screws, it is easy to do) was helpful in putting the last wall panel in place. The panel was too heavy for me and my husband, with the glass door in it. Thank you for everything. A+ for your excellent customer service.

Sincerely, Gerlinde in Annville, PA (near Harrisburg and Allentown, PA)

Hey Mike, just wanted to loop back with you on our installation.
With the expert help from my 14 y.o. daughter, we were able to assemble the sauna and make it an integrated part of our home gym. As you can see in the attached photo, we were able to erect it and then move it into the alcove intended for it.
All turned out well and I was able to use the sauna last evening. It was great. My wife, is looking forward to a session this evening.

Thanks and best regards,Dave in Herndon, VA (between Leesburg and Arlington, VA)

"The heater arrived very quickly and when we opened the box and saw the wood cabinet with the great Oak finish that looks like a piece of furniture we were thrilled. It works instantly, no warm up or anything. Turn it on and you're heating. It takes up no space and it works great and very quiet. We are very pleased with this amazing little heater."

Review from Claudia McGee, Winner of our Infrared Quartz Portable Room Heater Contest

Hey Mike, the Sauna was delivered Monday all set up works great. Here are some pictures I hope they are good for you.

Thanks, Joe in Holland, Pennsylvania (near Philadelphia and Trenton, NJ)

Hey Mike, Sauna is set up and working great. I've used it every day since I got it. I am more than happy with it. The dimensions are exactly as advertised and fits perfectly where I was planning on putting it. I could not be happier with my purchase. Thanks for your help. :)

Infrared Sauna Model: 2-3 Person Corner Infrared Sauna with Carbon Panel Heaters

Mike, thanks for the additional tumblers and ice bucket. I will get you a picture of the hot tub open and running with the sauna in the back so you can entice owners of one of the items into getting the other.

The wife took the dogs out for a walk and was back in the sauna when she got back. She loves it. Thanks for the Christmas wishes and right back at you.

Jeff in Hampden, ME (near Bangor, Watervelle, northeast of Augusta, ME)

Hey Mike, Sauna arrived on day and time arranged. We unboxed and inventoried everything was there. It was easy to install just followed the directions. I think we had it in place in about an hour. Thanks for your help.  We have used the sauna twice already.  We are following the suggested time and temperature settings for older people since we are in that Senior stage of life. It works great.

Rita in Shawnee, CO (near Denver and Castle Rock CO)

FIR Sauna received, assembled, and seems to be working well.  My wife does winter swimming in our unheated pool, so this is to warm her up before and afterwards.

I have attached a picture of the sauna.  We are enjoying it.

Stephen in Flower Mound, TX

Mike,

Here are some photos of the sauna and the room I built.

Joe in Parma, OH (near Cleveland) purchased one of our 3 Person Infrared Saunas. He placed it at the end of a room and constructed walls and a ceiling to match the sauna. The result is very attractive, and you would hardly know it was a kit sauna. Beautiful job!

Thanks Mike for the excellent customer service. We use our sauna almost daily. I didn't expect the sauna to be so well constructed and so easy to put together. I am telling all my friends and family about spas n stuff. I'll be sending some more pictures later.
