Love this Sauna

I bought the Lennon 2-4 person unit a month ago and have made sauna sessions a daily routine. I have loved my experience with our sauna unit and would recommend. We had on part missing from our kit upon arrival and BYD was quick to ship the replacement part within a couple of days.

Worth it

Bought this a few months ago. This product is amazing. It took some time to put together but it was worth it. We leave in Michigan. so we decided to put ice guard on the top before we did the metal roof. We also had to caulk around the metal roof and wood edge. Now we have absolutely no water leaking in. There is definitely extra cost but for us it was worth it.

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.

Good instructions - heats up quickly!

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!

Game changer

I've had this sauna up and running for about 3 weeks now and absolutely love it. I decided to build it myself and had it completed in a little over 10 hours. It would have definitely went quicker with 2 people but it really wasn't bad at all and the instructions on the app are easy to follow. The only negative I've found was the heater would trip the overheat switch if I turned it on to heat to 194 but since switching to heating up to 176 and then increasing heat from there it has helped eliminating it overheating on the initial warmup. I would highly recommend this product as well as Backyard Discovery

Great Sauna!

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!

Great Product

This sauna doesn't just work great, it looks gorgeous in the backyard. The wood finish is elegant and feels high-end, and it really makes our outdoor space look so nice. The heat spreads evenly throughout the sauna, and the Wi-Fi heat control make it super easy to get to your preferred temperature fast and consistently. I highly recommend this sauna.

Great features!

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.

Fantastic

This sauna has become one of our favorite backyard features! The construction was easy and the thicker wood panels and quality craftsmanship are immediately noticeable. It also heats up faster than our friends’ models, so we can relax without a long wait. We’ve trusted Backyard Discovery ever since we bought our gazebo, and they continue to impress. This sauna feels luxurious and is built to last! Never disappointed  with any of purchased from this company.
