great addition

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.

Discover the Disappointment

Ordered a Backyard Discovery 4 to 6 person sauna along with paid assembly from Sam's Club. I called the assembly contractor Eddie Perden to schedule an appointment and he told me to wait until the product was delivered. I requested to be scheduled anyway because this was the day before the scheduled delivery. Product was delivered as scheduled. I was not able to secure an appointment until after my husband %26 I called customer service %26 complained about the contractor. Contractor calls me; apologizes %26 schedules appointment. We do not hear from him when it's the day before the appointment. I reach out %26 he says he is not able to make it %26 reschedules us for the following day. Day of the appointment, we do not get any communication from the contractor. I text and request an ETA. I get one for 11:00 AM to 11:30 AM, %26 then I get a message at 11:30 that he's delayed. Now our appointment time is 1:00 to 1:30 PM. We have requested a new assembly contractor 2x because of this guy's lack of professionalism. Never again. We have paid for everything %26 we feel as if our time is not important. We delayed a trip due to this scheduling chaos %26 our boxes have been exposed to the weather for 2 weeks while waiting for Eddie to get his act together.See less

Hot! Hot! Hot!

When choosing between a barrel or a cube sauna, I opted for the cube because the two-tiered bench seating really appealed to me. It is a completely different level of heat on the higher bench! Also, having recently burned my arm on the heater in a small barrel sauna, I wanted to make sure that there was some distance from the heater if we chose to fit a few people in there. You really easily could fit up to 6 adults in there, but two people with each person having an entire bench to lay on is a peak spa experience. I assembled the sauna myself which took several days at a few hours at a time. I am a contractor, so I have tools that made the process straightforward. I personally found the assembly difficulty level low, but long. The product is shipped in several boxes which are not filled in any kind of chronological order. Each piece or bag of hardware has a numerical code on it. The instructions state to lay out all of the material in order to make it easier to assemble- but even doing so, much of the assembly time is spent trying to identify each part and making sure its the correct one. Again- not difficult if you are familiar with assembling things, but tedious. The heat output is insane! I typically set it to 160/170 and could not imagine going above that- though you certainly can. As others have stated, the wifi connectivity/ Tuya control app are not the best. The touchscreen control panel on the unit is also pretty bad. I almost completely avoid using the control panel and use the app to turn it on, but if you are not >10ft away from it, it usually has a connection error. To me, it's not a super big deal, but it can get irritating. This is the only reason for 4/5 stars. It has only been a few weeks and we are using it almost every day. It heats up very quickly, and I'm anxious to see how it performs in the winter months.

Amazing Sauna

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!

Very Happy!

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.

Great product and great support

If you read the other reviews, then you will see and hear that this a great product. From purchasing, shipping, receiving, and instructions were great. Building it was great, you just have to make sure you read and look at the instructions. There are only 3 things that I say could be better. 1) The 120v light outlet should be incorporated into the control box. I feel this is an oversight here. 2) There should be a locking mechanism for the door and not just magnets to hold the door closed. This is fine in low wind locations or for people that do not have little kids. I think this is an oversight as well. 3) There needs to be a pan for water collection under the heater. When we first used it, I sat on the lower seat and found the hot water splashes on your feet. Yes it was hot!

Amazing

Virtual 3D instructions are the best thing ever invented !!!! Super easy to follow. Love the fact that it highlights all holes and small details so it makes installing easy

Great Quality

This 4-6 person Lennon sauna is amazing! This is the second item I have purchased from Backyard Discovery, and both items have exceeded our expectations. It looks great from the outside and is super spacious and comfortable on the inside. This sauna has some nice features to point out: adjustable  lighting on the inside, heats very quickly-which you can warm at any time with the bluetooth feature. The quality of the wood is very durable and thick. I would give it a ten out of ten. Upon arrival it came with very clear easy to follow directions. We also decided to stain the cedar to match our house, which is a really nice option with the quality of the cedar. The customer service was impeccable. They are available to help with any questions you may have. I highly recommend this sauna!
