We are happy with our purchase.

We are very happy with our sauna - it takes about 40 minutes to heat up to 140 degrees, so we turn it on before we do weights and it is ready when we are ready. It really is more a one person sauna - I would not want to be in it with another person and I wish it was just 6 inches wider because then I could lay on my back with my legs up - that's why I didn't give 5 stars... I just want a little more space. The Bluetooth speakers are great - you can listen to music or mediation while recovering. Also worth noting, my husband set it up in about an hour with me helping just twice on the larger sides.

Great Sauna for the price.

Assembling the Sauna was very easy, but you should use two people. It took about 3/4 hours. I’ve used it many times now and am very happy with it. The temperature got up to 149 which is great for this well made but comparatively inexpensive. My wife and I love it.

Great addition to our home!

We love this sauna! It is the perfect “unplugged” time the two of us can set aside to be with each other without TV, phones and distractions! We love putting spa or relaxing music on in the sauna. Highly recommend this! We easy to assemble and looks great too!

Great sauna for the cost

Have had this sauna about one month. We did a lot of research and this was the best for the cost, that we could find. Love the infrared, and the lack of humidity to contend with. It takes about 20 minutes to get to temp, and we find that a 30-40 minute session gets us a nice sweat in. I like the bluetooth audio feature for listening to podcasts or spa-type music. It does randomly shut off once in a while - but can be turned back on with no other shut downs... that may be a "dedicated breaker" issue, so consider that when you place it.

The best sauna you can buy!

I’ve used a lot of recovery tools over the years between owning a gym, training hard, golfing, and juggling a pretty full schedule, and I can honestly say this Backyard Discovery 2 person infrared sauna has blown me away. The first thing you notice is the build quality. This is not a flimsy, heat leaking box like some infrared saunas I’ve tried before. The thicker solid cedar, double wall construction, and the heavy tempered glass door make a real difference. It heats up fast, holds temperature consistently, and there are no cold spots. You feel enveloped in heat instead of chasing it. The extra infrared panels absolutely matter, you can tell this thing was designed for performance, not just looks. Assembly was shockingly easy. Everything arrived pre built, pre drilled, pre wired, and clearly labeled. It went together cleanly and quickly without frustration, which I appreciated more than I expected. If you can handle basic furniture assembly, you can handle this. The extras are where it really shines. The integrated red light therapy has become part of my regular recovery routine, especially after hard training days or long rounds of golf. The chromotherapy lighting adds a calm, almost meditative feel, and the Bluetooth speakers make it easy to throw on music, a podcast, or a guided breathing session. It turns recovery into something I genuinely look forward to instead of something I feel like I should do. What really gives me confidence long term is knowing the entire sauna is backed by a comprehensive five year warranty. It reinforces that this was built to last and that the company stands behind the product, which matters when something becomes part of your daily routine. Bottom line, this sauna delivers on everything it promises. Better construction really does equal better performance. I’m honestly amazed at how good this sauna is, and it’s quickly become a non negotiable part of my recovery and health routine.

Wonderful sauna

I got this last week. It was very easy to assemble. It does take 2 people as it is heavy and one needs to hold the walls while another affixes them. I have used it once so far. It took about 35-40 minutes to heat up. Bluetooth connected to my iPhone very easily and it was fantastic. I got good heat and sweated a LOT! Felt great. I was skeptical because it only had two reviews, but decided to get it anyway. So glad I did. So far anyway.

This sauna is a game changer!

We couldn't be happier with the Backyard Discovery 2 Person Infrared Sauna from Sam's Club. It was simple to set up %26 we've been using it daily since we got it. It's quickly become one of our favorite parts of our night time routine. It's the perfect way to unwind after a long day - super relaxing %26 easy to use %26 heats up to 150 F. Since we started using it we've both noticed feeling more relaxed overall %26 better quality of sleep. It's like having a little wellness retreat right at home. :) Highly recommend if you're looking to level up your wellness game at home!! Worth the investment in more ways that one.

Amazing!!!

Sauna is amazing! I have been reading and researching them for several months. I have been completely blown away by the quality of this one. It was so simple to put together and my husband and I are NOT handy. We usually end up fighting after each project we attempt and then hire it out. lol However this was not the case. It heats up in about 30 minutes which is normal and we jump in. It is a perfect size! We are larger and taller people; both over 6' and there is plenty of room for us not to touch. This is not my first backyard discovery item and won't be my last. They seem to have good quality products overall.
