Who should buy which
Homeowners who want a sauna room and a cold plunge delivered as one finished building instead of two separate projects, who can add two dedicated circuits and a level gravel, slab or deck base, and who will use the unit at home, where the residential warranty applies.
You want a clear return path, since the refund policy excludes assembled saunas; or the site is in Alaska, Hawaii or anywhere else outside the contiguous United States.
A homeowner, resort or short-term rental owner with a level 8 by 17 foot site, ideally a gravel or concrete pad, a licensed electrician lined up for a 240V circuit, and the full balance ready within 10 days of the deposit.
You want a sauna only (Sweaty Yeti's 8 by 9 foot Sauna is $29,700), you rent or cannot place an 8 by 17 foot outdoor building on your land, or you need the warranty term in writing before a deposit that stops being refundable after 5 days.
