This was a first for us and we are more than happy! The included instructions, along with the video, made installation smooth. I agree with the manufacturer that it is a two-person task for ease. My husband and I (mid-40’s) built it, taking our time, in 45 minutes. The posted measurements online are spot on. We needed it to fit a very specific space and it was exactly as described once built. The quality and workmanship of the sauna are good and everything has operated well from the get go. Even the speaker feature works well. Shipping took about a week (a couple states away) and everything arrived as it should have. Operation of the controls are very intuitive and easy to remember, too. The sauna raises to temperature quickly and evenly. We have been and will continue to recommend this brand and especially this unit!

The 1 person Full Spectrum Infrared…
The 1 person Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna was easy to put together with 2 people. All components were good quality and create a nice appearance. The control panel is easy to work. The lighting package and Bluetooth speakers are nice convivence features. Heated up to 130-140 degrees in 20-25 minutes The red light is a distance from you so it gives good coverage. Responsive team via email to all questions and needs. Good expereince.

Thrilled With My New Sauna!
I was excited to assemble and use my new sauna the day it arrived, and I have used it now for 21 consecutive days since! I found the assembly to be as easy as advertised and was able to do it with no assistance. I am pleasantly surprised by how quickly the sauna heats up, significantly reducing my "wait time" to use it. As a six-foot tall man, I was happy to find this 75"H model that allows me to alternate between standing and sitting while using it. The lighting options allow for enjoying various moods, providing for reading as well, and the speakers work well when I opt for music instead. The small footprint allowed me to squeeze the sauna comfortably into my bedroom when I had few other viable options. I would recommend this unit to anyone looking for a relatively compact but very comfortable infrared sauna. It's attractive, and easy to keep clean too!

Price versus value is excellent
Price versus value is excellent. The corner sauna is exactly as presented. It was easy to assemble and provides excellent infra red therapy. We enjoy its soothing heat daily and couldn’t be happier. Thank you.

Defective product, terrible service
Terrible experience. I ordered the Maxwell-901BH 1 Person Ultra-Low EMF Far Infrared Sauna on a Black Friday online sale. When I received it, there was wood splitting off the casing of several heating elements,and one of the frames was cracked apart along the top side. These defects were clearly the result of poor workmanship.
Trying to get help by phone was nearly impossible, and took several days. Their website says to call Kate during US business hours, and after hours, to call Frankie. Kate never answers the phone, and then the line disconnects, no way to leave a message. So much for troubleshooting in real time with the product warranty I purchased.
I had to resort to email to communicate with Kate at all. In her emails, Kate took no responsibility for the broken pieces, blamed the shipper, and then said she wants to send me new parts. I refused, then she said I should send the whole thing back, and then she’ll ship me a new unit, once received. After all the emails back and forth, I tried to call Kate again, no luck. I called after hours, and Frankie answered the phone by saying “Hello.” That’s it, like am I calling a real company? I suspect this is Frankie’s cell phone, and he has other jobs elsewhere. When I explained to Frankie that I wanted to talk to Kate, and why can’t I get her on the phone, he told me, “Kate doesn’t speak English.” I was just astounded.
At that point, I demanded a full refund. Through many emails back and forth with Luna and Kate, at first I was told it was up to another team to determine if this could be done. They wanted to examine my return to see if it “qualifies” for a refund or a replacement. By that time, I was done with them and said that I had lost trust in them as a company and could not move forward with a replacement. After days of back and forth, they finally agreed to a full refund. I had to pay a handyman out of pocket to properly repack the many boxes and send them back.
Their entire support staff is overseas, which can be doable. You can find highly skilled, competent professionals if you are willing to pay them a generous living wage. It is inexcusable that a US based company has a customer service phone rep, working US business hours, who doesn’t answer the phone, and doesn’t speak English.
I did some research after my bad experience. Multiple reviewers on multiple sites also complain about damaged products and bad service. Every response from Salus to these negative reviews is the same. They are sorry, and intend to do better. They have promised to replace problematic staff, and yet, their current service team is still incompetent. 3 months after my debacle with Salus Heat, I see Kate is still running the daytime service hours. As predicted, their response to my review is to blame the shippers for their inferior product, and make more excuses for their incompetent customer service team.
The products are sub-standard. My sauna was not damaged by shipping, the container was beautifully packed and protected. They are maximizing their profit margins by producing a cheap product, using various drop shippers they can blame when anything goes wrong, and having low-level, likely underpaid overseas staff.
If you buy from Salus, do so at your own risk.

Hi Leslie,
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for the frustration and disappointment you experienced with your sauna and our customer service. This is not the experience we want any of our customers to have.
Red cedar is a naturally soft wood, which can sometimes make it more vulnerable to damage during shipping. While we take great care in packaging, we clearly need to strengthen our process, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
We are truly sorry for the difficulties you faced when trying to reach us by phone and for the confusion around our team. We have teams working in different countries to help us offer quality products at competitive prices, but we understand that communication fell short in your case. That is on us, and we are actively working to improve.
We offered to replace your unit and later approved a full refund, but we recognize that the process was frustrating and took far too long. We are reviewing our return and refund procedures to make them smoother and more transparent for our customers.
Again, we are sorry we let you down. Your feedback is helping us become better, and we are grateful for that.
Warmly,
The SalusHeat Team

I have long heard about the benefits of…
I have long heard about the benefits of saunas, but was worried about cost and if I would actually benefit from one. As a daily distance runner, high school teacher, and mom of four this has allowed me to have something that feels like an extra workout without the daily wear and tear of another high impact workout. I feel weighed down during the winter months because I can never achieve that full, cleansing sweat I get from the hot summer days. Now that I have the sauna and I get in 3-4 times a week and I can tell a difference in skin and recovery. The customer service from Salusheat is also first class. They rapidly respond and are proactive. The product is also great quality and I didn’t even buy the highest priced sauna. I have a crowded garage, with lots of stuff and this takes minimal room. Also, has low power consumption. Very happy and I’m tempted to buy an outdoor model soon!

Quick shipping and great customer…
Quick shipping and great customer service response when I had a question about an additional add-on purchase. We love our sauna so far!
This sauna is a perfect fit in our small home workout room. It was a gift for my husband's birthday, but the whole family is enjoying it. It gets surprisingly hot, and quickly! The temperature warms up to 140 degrees in less than 20 minutes. It gets hotter than that, but we have opted to keep it at 140. The inside is very spacious, and it looks nice in the workout room. My son loves the Bluetooth feature, and I really enjoy the serenity and the multi-color light options. Very good quality! We opted for the Red Cedar upgrade, and it looks and smells great! Planning to order the red cedar backrests as soon as they are back in stock. I do recommend the backrest as an addition if you are considering a purchase. Overall, we are very happy with our purchase and would purchase the same sauna again.
