We did a fair amount of research before buying this sauna. We saw a 2 person sauna at Costco that got us interested. After reading the reviews, that sauna did not seem of high quality. We started checking other sites and became more interested in the one person sauna. It takes up less space, uses less energy, and takes less time to heat. Some other sites had high quality saunas but at a very high price. We came across this SalusHEAT site and found this to be a quality sauna at a very fair price. We were not sure about having the heat panel on the lower part of the front door. We decided it was best to have the extra panel for more heat. It does not detract from the look of the sauna. We love this sauna. We ordered the back rest-support which helps keep your back away from the rear panel. I recommend this for sure. The sauna was delivered in 3 boxes and was pretty easy to assemble. I am 6' 180lbs and fit in this comfortably. This may be tight for a person of larger build. For our family it works well. It heats up quickly and we get very good sweat which helps eliminate toxins. We also like the overhead light for reading, the colored overhead lights for mood setting. It has a control panel on the inside and outside which many others don't. We did not get the cedar one because we weren't sure if the scent would be strong. So we went with the Hemlock wood. It uses a standard outlet so no electric work was needed. I highly recommend this sauna. Good luck. Scott
I am beyond impressed with my Salus Heat sauna. After researching several options, the cost-benefit on this model is easily the best I’ve found. You get premium features like the floor and calf heaters included, which makes for a much more immersive and effective session.
The heat-up time is also fantastic; it consistently reaches my target temperature in about 20–30 minutes, and the heat stays intense and steady. It’s rare to find a product that feels this high-end without the massive price tag. If you’re looking for a reliable, fast-heating sauna that actually delivers on its promises, this is the one to get.
If you're shopping for saunas in this price range you're probably looking at the popular models from Dynamic, LifePro, JNH, etc. and got as overwhelmed as I did by all the options. So glad I stumbled across this model before purchasing from one of those.
For about the same price, this model has several features most of the competition don't have: dual control panels, floor heater, calf heater, heater on the door, and snazzy outer lights. Those were what swayed me to get this sauna and I'm so glad I did.
Shipping was fairly quick, assembly was simple (maybe 30 minutes), and everything's been working flawlessly. Reaches 149 in about half an hour and I start dripping within minutes. I did have some minor damage to one of the panels that happened during the shipping process but Salus was quick to respond and resolve the issue.
Overall I'd highly recommend this sauna if you're looking to spend about $2k. No complaints at all and hope it continues to perform as well as it has so far.
Good value but not really that hot ..... I go to a cold plunge sauna for contrast therapy daily. I bought this for days I cant get to it....the Salus dry heat sauna is what is advertised. A low cost alternate - great value. The plastic pipe frame is easy to build and the slip on cover is easy to install. No strong orders.
The sauna gets to 120-135 degrees within 15 minutes. The timer goes to 60 minutes. Its tricky to get into the sauna without letting out all the hot air. Im 6-2 / 2220lbs. I start to sweat within 5 minutes of sitting in the sauna - yes, it gets hot enough to sweat, but you have to remain in the sauna long enough to get your heart rate up to "mild cardio" level of 125 bpm or more to activate heat shock proteins. Google that "Sauna Heat Shock Protein Studies" to understand more. For me it takes 30 minutes in the sauna to reach 125 BPM. My core body temp rises and my heart rate goes to 110+ within 15 minutes.
NOTE: *** I modified the sauna *** I added heat resistant 5mm padded foil that I bought on amazon to help with heat escaping from the liner or outer surface. I lined the entire inside - ceiling , floor, walls with this heat resistant foil. This simply addition or insulation helps the sauna get hot and stay heated, The foil is the same material that Salus provides for the floor. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F3NYDJCH?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1
The padded really made the Salus more efficient and hotter. I added a thermometer to the inside to read temps. Overall this is a good value at $199...much better then steam heat saunas and other brands that market on IG for over $400. Hope this helps - there is a lot of marketing misinformation out there....
I am thrilled with the purchase of my SalusHEAT sauna backrest. The ergonomic design provides the perfect support for my lower back while still allowing the radiant heat to deeply penetrate mussels for a luxurious spa experience right at home.
From purchase to usage this has been a great experience. Item shipped on time, surprisingly easy assembly (me and my 18yr old daughter), and sauna heats up quickly and is exactly what I was looking for.
We did a lot of research before purchasing and are so happy with our decision. Set up was incredibly easy - my husband and I did it together in under 30 minutes once we unboxed it all. We’ve been using it every day and it’s such a luxury to have in our home. Bonus points for how nice it looks!
We've had our sauna a few weeks and use it almost daily. Assembly was easy for the two of us but definitely take your time and follow the instructions carefully. The cedar smells amazing and adding the additional flooring (last two photos) was simple enough to cut to size. We are truly hoping to see the health benefits soon throughout our health and fitness journey. If we didn't move so frequently (military) I would have gotten a much large one but the 3-person fits my husband and I comfortably enough.
After 2+ years of research and comparing brands and features we settled on Salus Heat. We are so happy with our purchase we could join the sales team - we tell everyone about it! Low EMF, beautiful classic cedar design with the heating plate on the door (genius!), and an easy to use interface. The chromotherapy feature is excellent as well. The installation was a breeze! We couldn’t believe what little effort was needed to put the panels together and plug in. We are very happy we took the time to research because this sauna checks all the boxes without the outrageous price tag.
I became obsessed with finding the right sauna and spent many, many, many hours scouring the internet to educate myself and find the best option in our price range. I knew I wanted one that would fit at least 2 people or allow a solo user to recline and pull their legs up. My electrical engineer son convinced me to go with far infrared over full-spectrum with the argument that I could stay in a FI sauna longer without boiling my brain. Most important to me became the low-EMF and low-VOC as I have a lot of sensitivities to fumes. We did have to have an electrician come twice -- 1st to change the outlet to the 20amp receptacle, and then, once we assembled the sauna, the cord was too short to reach so we had to move the outlet closer. I hadn't realized how much I would appreciate the bluetooth speakers, but listening to music or podcasts while I sauna is great and the sound quality helps make it an immersive experience. It gets plenty hot in about 1/2 hour and I sweat in rivulets -- putting a towel on the bench is essential! I use 2 for more cushion. You'll want a backrest. Assembly was easy and my husband was able to carry all the pieces down to the basement himself with the exception of the super heavy front window wall. A teenaged neighbor boy came over and helped lift the ceiling on top, too. Super easy and everything just snapped into place. We've had it for a month and I've used it almost every day. Now I can't imagine living without it!
After researching options for a quality infrared sauna on the market, I settled for the Maxwell 902BR and I am very pleased with the product. At this price point, there is nothing that really comes close (i.e. Lifepro, Costco) with everything else easily 2x the cost. Opted for the Red Cedar finish and it's not only beautiful but brings along aromatic properties and nice heat retention. Heater placement is well designed including the panel on the door. Assembly came together well, with tight tolerances. Shipping logistics were less than ideal but not to fault of Salusheat. One box was lost in transit and their customer service was very responsive to fulfill a replacement. Despite the packaging, the product came with some blemishes from shipping. Would consider their outdoor units when I'm ready for one!
I order my sauna on 1/22 and could have had the t delivered on 1/29, but the room still t was going in wasn’t complete. I opted to have ot delivered on 2/5. The delivery company called and ask if we could switch dates. Which worked out great because my driveway was still covered in ice. We ended up pushing the delivery to 2/10. Assembly was easy. Myself and my 12 year old daughter put the sauna together the same day it arrived and I used it the next morning. It took about 20 minutes to get up to max temp of 149. I felt like it heated evenly and had no drafts. I sat in it for 30 minutes and actually sweated more than I have been at the sauna soak lounge l, where I had been doing 45 minutes. Overall I’m satisfied with this purchase. One perk is I can plug the sauna into a regular outlet.
We love our Wearwell low emf outdoor sauna -it arrived well packed & with very clear instructions & was easy to assemble with two people .
The unit is well made - the wood is beautiful & for being a one person size it’s pretty roomy. The door & handle are very nice. It’s pretty to look at & overall we are thrilled with our purchase. We also received a backrest which definitely makes sitting more comfortable & a separate foot sauna which is also well built -good size & easy to use. We are very happy customers
I bought my sauna just over a year ago and I was loving it until recently. Now every time I turn on the controller I hear a clicking sound in the box and it turns off instantly. I've troubleshooted and unplugged all the heaters so it's not those. It's no way I see to get into the control box as it is built-in
Hi Glenn,
Thank you for sharing this with us. We're truly sorry to hear about the issue with your controller. This doesn’t sound like the experience we want for you. We haven’t received any previous contact from you regarding this concern—but we’ve just sent you an email with steps to resolve it, including sending a replacement control unit if needed. Please check your inbox so we can get this sorted for you as quickly as possible.

After serious research, I decided to buy the Wearwell-901VR 1 In cedar. Installation was a snap. I literally built it myself in less than an hour. Since then, I’ve enjoyed it nearly every night and love it—the cedar smell, built-in speakers, and most importantly the therapeutic benefits. This product is the real deal!
Hi Todd,
We're thrilled your Wearwell sauna has become such a cherished part of your nightly routine! Thank you for highlighting the easy solo assembly, beautiful cedar aroma, and real therapeutic benefits. We truly appreciate your trust!

I was surprised at how easy and quick the installation was completed. My Salus came in 3 boxes - all product was packed securely with no damage in shipping.
Instructions were easy to follow.
My first session was enjoyable - I suffer from raynaud's syndrome in my feet - the heated floor is what finally sealed the deal...... so far so good!
Hi James,
We're so glad your installation was quick and easy, and thrilled that the heated floor is already making a positive difference for you! Thank you for trusting SalusHeat—enjoy every warm, comforting session.

I ordered two backrests for my 2-person sauna & really like them both - one was a med & one was a large. Based on my height 5’9”, I would recommend the medium. It fits great against the wall w/o damaging the heaters. As you can see in photo, the backrest when not in use, tucks away nicely. The price was very affordable!
Hi Tom,
We're thrilled you're loving both backrests and that the medium size fits your height perfectly! Thank you for highlighting the affordable price, smart design, and secure fit. Enjoy your enhanced sauna comfort!

I received my sauna in January, and I couldn’t be happier with it! I feel more relaxed and less stressed when I use it. My inflammation markers on my bloodwork even went down after using it for only a few weeks! I’m very pleased with it, and so glad that I purchased it!
Hi Emily,
We're thrilled to hear how much your sauna is improving your relaxation and even your bloodwork results! Thank you for sharing such positive feedback. We're honored to be part of your wellness journey.

We recently purchased the one person low emf western red cedar outdoor. Best decision ever and we use it almost daily.
Great quality product and easy to assemble. Fits perfectly in our patio so we can sauna and cold plunge too and love the Bluetooth speakers for music or podcasts.
We also purchased the rain cover which fits great and keeps the beautiful wood exterior protected from the weather in winter and minimize the need for maintenance.
Highly recommended

I chose this model because I needed a sauna that would fit under a sloped ceiling in my gym. It fits perfectly in my space and it’s as big as it needs to be for me to sit in there comfortably. It heats up quickly and gets me sweaty within minutes. I was also very impressed with the communication from the customer service department. Highly recommend this sauna and this company.
Hi Douglas,
We're thrilled your sauna fits perfectly under your sloped ceiling and heats up quickly for your sessions! Thank you for highlighting our customer service and your strong recommendation. Enjoy your cozy gym retreat!

We love our Sublime sauna red cedar wood sauna! We were concerned about space and size, but this is compact enough to easily fit in our garage - while still leaving enough space to sit comfortably in the sauna. I’m 5’10”, 210lbs and I fit in here without any issues. The Bluetooth speakers are super easy to use. Sauna heats up to 140 in 15 minutes. I basically assembled the sauna myself, while the wife helped when installing the glass door. Total time on assembly was under 30 minutes. I recommend these to everyone. Pricing is great for the product. The only thing we’re upset about, is we didn’t know about this sooner! The wife and I each used this at least 4-5 times a week. You really get a great sweat. 5/5 stars. Would give 10 if I could! Do yourself the favor, and order one, you will not regret it.
Hi Mike,
We're thrilled your Sublime sauna fits so perfectly in your garage and that you're both enjoying it 4-5 times a week! Thank you for highlighting the quick heating, easy Bluetooth, and smooth assembly. It means a lot that you recommend us so highly. Enjoy every rejuvenating session!

We couldn’t be happier with our purchase. Incorporating the sauna into our health and exercise routine has been a great addition. We had discussed whether it was worth the cost for quite some time before deciding to pull the trigger and we wished we had done it much sooner!
Hi Kent,
We're thrilled the sauna has become such a valued part of your health and exercise routine! Thank you for taking the leap—we're honored to know you wish you'd done it sooner. Enjoy every session!

After researching several options and based on the recommendations of others, we ordered the Maxwell-901 BH one person infrared sauna. The delivery came within two weeks of ordering. It was packaged well and delivered carefully. It took almost as long to unpack as it did to assemble. We were using it within an hour of delivery.
The assembly is very easy and the manual is straightforward.
This is a great product for our health and wellbeing.
It heats up quickly. The lighting options are perfect and the Bluetooth speakers are great. My husband and I have used it several times since delivery and both of us feel that it has helped us mentally and physically.
Hi Denise,
We're thrilled you and your husband are enjoying the Maxwell sauna and its positive impact on your health and wellbeing! Thank you for highlighting the smooth delivery, easy assembly, quick heating, and great features. It means a lot that you trusted our recommendation.

Delivery was smooth. Set up was surprisingly easy with 2 people. Nothing to **** in, no parts missing. The packing was great. We were worried about the glass door but it is packaged really well. We set up and started using it within 30 mins. Sturdy and well built. If you are worried about the max temp of 149, you would be wrong. Even at 125 we are sweating through our towels within 15 mins. My only downside would be that the speakers are a bit too loud, we set our phones to the lowest volume and it's still a bit much for background noise. I wish there was a way to lower the volume on the speakers themselves. Maybe there is, but I haven't seen any options. We also love the marble tiles on the floor! Keeps your feet nice and warm.
Hi Ali,
We're thrilled you're finding your sauna simply amazing! Thank you for highlighting the smooth delivery, easy setup, sturdy build, and warm marble floor. We've noted your feedback on the speaker volume and will share it with our product team. Enjoy every rejuvenating session!
