Our traditional sauna kit comes with pre-cut and pre-drilled pieces that fit together seamlessly, plus guided BILT app instructions for an easier installation.

Surprised at the level of quality

I didn't want a sauna, but.... This thing has been amazing! The quality of the kit was top tier and very well thought out. The hardware was nice, the included tools were high quality. They even included a 90 degree attachment to help with certain screws. It gets to 176 degrees in about ten minutes. The touchscreen directions in the manual need to be improved. For example, it does not say that to turn it on, it is a long press. Also, if you want to adjust temperature or timer you need to double tap. It would also be nice if the touchscreen would turn off as it stays on 24 hours a day. Overall, thrilled with the purchase.

Love this Sauna

I am happy to leave a review for the Paxton Barrel Sauna. It was better than expected. In terms of operation it heats up fast and provides a great experience (used 3 times so far). But beyond that was the setup. The instructions and packaging could not have been better. I spread out the boxes and plucked from each as I went along and kept referring to packing lists to find the components. Not what they suggest but it worked for me. I highly recommend this product and the company. One call to Backyard Discovery and I received 20 screws that I seemed to have misplaced. I am going to order a greenhouse next!!
