Chilliwack 2 person infrared sauna
I bought a Chilliwack 2 person infrared sauna and it's GREAT. I chose it for its price, features, the pre-sales customer service but mostly because it was so easy to construct. It arrives in a very heavy box but each individual panel (there are about seven) can be carried without trouble. I'm a short middle-aged woman and put the whole thing together by myself in about an hour, thanks to the clever system of clips, which mean I didn't need any tools and could easily adjust the panels. I did ask a taller neighbour to help to situate the top, which is heavy and more delicate because of all the electronics which are pre-installed. Once on, it was the work of a moment to hook it all up. A truly wonderful design! The sauna worked perfectly from the start and I love the lights and bluetooth connection which means I can listen to pods or books while I sweat. The instructions are good and the on-site video is excellent. There were only two moments in the whole process that required a bit of thought - one was when construction the seat, slide it in before fastening the two side walls, and the other was hooking up the connection under the seat - the wiring with the correct connector needed to be pulled through the back panel. Otherwise the whole thing is a no-brainer. Canadian Spa staff whom I contacted for advice before my purchase were quick to get back to me in person on the phone and gave me the information I needed. The sauna is sold as being for 1-2 people. It is quite snug for two average women, but for one it is big enough to sit comfortably on the bench with your knees up and your back leaning against the batons covering the side heating panel. I think two men would probably find it a bit too intimate. Anyway, I have been planning an indoor sauna for years and the reality has actually exceeded my expectations. The company and the product are both outstanding.
