I researched and shopped a long time before purchasing this sauna. I'm not a purist or a sauna snob, I wanted something I could use quickly and not cost the same as a car but with an acceptable quality. If you can't build your own from scratch or afford to hire a sauna architect, this is the best affordable sauna kit on the market. After making a foundation, (Theoretically you can build it directly on the ground, but I wouldn't advise it. At the very least concrete paving tiles would work.) it took a helper and me two days to get it up and running (I'm a retired electrician so I wired it myself, but I recommend you use a pro if you don't know your way around a schematic). It takes 20 minutes to heat up to 180F, which is hot enough for me. I especially like being able to turn it on from inside the house. It was a bit tricky getting the remote controls working, but I finally got it. The first picture shows it before I stained it, the second after I stained it.

We ordered this sauna for our Airbnb property and it has been great so far! The setup took 12ish hours with two people. The instructions were helpful. I would recommend having a rope for putting it together. We didn't and it made it tricky to get everything aligned up top. The sauna heats up very quickly and we are happy with the purchase!

I’ve been really impressed with the Lennon 2–4 Person Sauna. It feels super sturdy—the thick cedar gives it a solid, well-built feel and you can tell it’s made to last. Once it’s heated up, it holds temperature really well too. Honestly, it also just looks great in the backyard. The clean, modern design and glass front make it feel way more high-end than I expected. It’s one of those purchases that actually looks as good as it functions.

I spent a lot of time shopping for a sauna when we were ready. Came across backyard discovery in my search and initially was skeptical, because there are a lot of companies that are "faceless" and once you buy the thing, you'll never get support again. I reached out and was pleasantly surprised to find people immediately available to help me, and also to find that this is a company that has been around a long time. Pulled the trigger on a REALLY well priced sauna. Showed up fast. I took my time building it, and everything went together super well. Especially happy with the included metal roof to protect the top from the elements. Heater is very nice, heats the sauna to 150 in like 15 mins right now. I oiled the entire thing on the exterior with paraffin oil, and did the benches too. We've been in it every night since I finished building it and we're very happy with the purchase, and with Backyard Discovery's service thus far.

Have had the unit about 2 weeks and use it every day. Its awesome! The delivery was a little wonky, but they were nice. Came extremely well pack and organized. No missing or broken pieces. Instructions were pretty good, I think we few things would be quicker to double up on a few steps. The digital version is slightly different than the printed I noticed. The seat bottom board is tricky to line up. As others noted, the flashing is next to none. While the rain stays out of the roof, it runs off the edge into the trim pieces which then runs inside the unit. Not bad, but not great either. I intend to fix it like the other poster mentioned with black flashing from HD. The quality is amazing for what you get. It heats up at 45 degrees to 180 in about 15m or less. I would say its not a 4 seater, more like 2 and 3 if you are friendly. Be cool to have an upper seat bench and lower to take advantage of the heat higher and cooler lower. The lights are great, although I wish it was built into the unit, even a separate button to turn on/off/dim. The little remote I know is gonna get lost or fail. The keypad takes a bit to get used., Its slow. Im on my second one and its better but not great. They sent a second one out immediately when I asked a question, swapped and it seems better. Im not sure if its related but the first keypad my wifi kept dropping and with the replacement it hasnt dropped once. So Im not sure? The app works great. Again.. one touch to power on.. wait for it to respond. Then timer.. wait. and go! Its a little learning curve, but fine. I had an electrical question that was awkward. It calls for 50amp circuit, but only requires 6awg wire. The book calls for 8awg. My electrician was battling me. We ended up with 8awg and it works fine. You need the neutral wire to power the touch panel. This was 14awg, I used 12awg. I mean, if you are going to put a neutral in there to step down the power to the touch screen, might as well power the LED lights as well right?! It cant be that much more to figure out that to simplify so you dont havent to run a separate 110v extension cord for the LED lights. But really, end of the day, its great with some minor tweaks. Get one and enjoy it!

I am a Finn so I have been to many saunas in Finland, electric, wood burning, smoke and I have to say I am impressed with the Lennon sauna. Assembly was easy, instructions logical, everything in the design was great and it looks beautiful. I stained it outside to add to weather proofing and to better match it with my house. Yesterday was time to test it. I was surprised how fast the sauna heated. I set it to 80C and it was plenty to give nice and crispy "löyly". I feel like a real Finn again!

This Backyard Discovery sauna exceeded all of our expectations. The thicker wood frame and panels set it miles apart from cheaper saunas we considered. It feels solid, smells awesome, is well-made, and honestly was easy to build. It heats up fast, even on chilly mornings, which has made it an everyday favorite for our family.

The Lennon 4–6 Person Sauna exceeded is perfect for what we were looking for. The design alone is stunning, the modern cube shape with rounded corners makes it look like a luxury spa feature in our backyard. The heater is incredibly efficient. It heats up noticeably faster than other saunas we researched, and the heat distribution is even and consistent throughout the entire space. The cedar interior smells amazing and feels solid and high quality. The Wi-Fi control is a huge convenience. Being able to preheat it from my phone means it’s ready when I am. The dimmable LED lights create a relaxing atmosphere, and the included bucket and ladle make the steam experience feel authentic. The craftsmanship is top-tier, from the tempered glass door to the sturdy steel roof. This is a premium product through and through.

I purchased the 4-6 person Backyard Discovery Lennon Outdoor Cube Sauna and we couldn’t be happier. It has so many cool features and works great! The inside has plenty of room to stand up with two benches to sit down. The wood feels much more premium than other saunas in this price range. I am excited about how fast it warms up, which is great for spontaneous sauna sessions. Great investment!

Such a great sauna. The ability to turn on by app and fast heat up time are great features. A straightforward build - the instructions and app make it really easy to follow. It took me one full day with a friend. The wood is great quality and holds the heat really well. Highly recommend!
