The size of this 1-2 person elite is perfect for in-home use. Definitely a one person sauna, but more roomy than some of the “little box saunas” you see out there. Both myself and my teenage daughter... See more

Very impressed with every aspect of the purchase. YouTube video worthy

Very impressed with the delivery date accuracy, the level of communication, & quality of customer service. Every aspect of the purchase went smoothly. Considering making a YouTube video about this because there’s not enough good info out there on where to purchase from. Either way, I highly recommend Select Saunas.

Hi Dylan,

Glad you're happy and impressed with everything. The gorgeous Vienna barrel sauna is absolutely video-worthy! I agree with you – there's way too little video content about purchasing saunas on YouTube. I personally would love to see one on your experience and install, and I think it would help many others too!

Alex made ordering our sauna a breeze!

Alex made ordering our sauna a breeze! He was always responsive through email and calls and got back to us immediately the following morning when we called outside his hours. My wife and I are pretty nervous buyers usually (especially when dropping over $7K online, sight unseen, a first for us) We greatly appreciate the help and are looking forward to many a future sauna!

Thank you so much for the review! I get how nerve-wracking it can be to spend that kind of money online, especially for something you haven't seen in person. It was great working with you both, and I'm excited for you to enjoy your new sauna. If you ever have any questions or need anything down the line, please feel free to reach out to me again.

Finnmark FD4 from Select Saunas

Select Saunas was transparent with their lead times straight from the manufacturer, informed us of other in-stock options and what was possible to get shipped directly. Ultimately we chose to place an order for a backordered Finnmark sauna. We appreciated the transparency when the ETA was changed from Finnmark. Chris and Alex were great giving us guidance and following up. Once it was at their warehouse everything went fast and smooth. About a week shipped to ND. Happy with everything so far.

Order and delivery went very smoothly

Order and delivery went very smoothly. Queries answered promptly. One item was missing or lost from the order and was delivered quickly when I pointed it out. The barrel, when set up and in action, holds its own with an 8kw very well, looking forward to using it this winter. The driver and a neighbor helped us get the sauna pallet to our backyard.

Unsat delivery by TForce Freight

Unsat delivery by TForce Freight. Shipped 7/16 to SLC. Received in Casper, WY on 7/19. I contacted TForce customer service on 7/22 and they promised delivery on 7/26. This did not happen so I contacted the MSO terminal on 7/29 and they could not get it on the truck for my delivery area on 7/30. They promised the shipment to be delivered on 8/2. Contacted MSO terminal and they did not know why shipment was not placed on truck for delivery today. Since Tuesdays and Fridays are the only days Bigfork is scheduled for deliveries, I am now supposed to receive delivery Tuesday, 8/6. 3 failures to deliver--poor delivery service!

Hi Linda,

Unfortunately, the last-mile delivery companies in your area who deliver your sauna are Maxxus's choice and the days that freight companies will work depend on the company and locale. It's indeed frustrating that TForce are not able to keep their promises on your delivery date, especially since it affects both your experience and our reputation. There's only so much we can do, but with that said, I've reached out to TForce to try to make sure they deliver on 8/6 this time.

As we here at Select Saunas have provided everything we can in terms of dispatch and service, I do not believe it is fair to rate our service a 1-star – it does impact us quite a lot, and is especially frustrating due to TForce's mistakes. However, I do understand the frustration from your perspective, so I've reached out to discuss this with you and see if there's anything we can do to help additionally.

Select Saunas made our purchase of the…Saunalife Model S4-N 6 Person Woodburning Hot Tub

Select Saunas made our purchase of the SaunaLife Woodburning Hot Tub so simple, and they had the best price.
The ordering and shipping was flawless. When it arrived, we had it placed and running in a day. It was well packaged and set up was easy.
The tub heats quickly and stays warm without much effort. I love that the steps and cover are included. The molded interior is comfortable and easy to wipe clean.
I highly recommend this hot tub. We fill it with spring water and it is chemical free.

Need to choose different delivery provider

Select Saunas service was fine, but still don't have my sauna delivered. Your LTL delivery service (TForce in Syracuse, NY) still has it sitting in their warehouse and hasn't delivered it yet.

Hey Larry, glad to hear you're happy with our service. Apologies for the hassle with TForce, it's out of our hands but things like this can happen from time to time. We'll reach out to TForce to make sure they get this scheduled for you tomorrow.

Excellent communication from the sales team and prompt shipping! I had some issues getting the heater hooked up (my electrician’s mistake), but Alex was able to help me out and we had it up and running the next day!

Best deal online.

Simple and easy to order you gave a straight answer on the delivery timeline. Best of all the price including backrests was the best deal online. Also, when I had a question, it was answer with email within a reasonable amount of time.

Enjoying the new sauna

Took about two weeks from ordering the sauna to getting it delivered and now enjoying it a lot. I appreciate Select Sauna for reaching out and communicating the shipping details to know when it would arrive. Thanks for everything

No communication

Seems like a common theme. I placed my order on March 2. 6-8 week deliver time frame. I have not heard any updates and its way past that time frame. I can not get a response vie email, phone, chat. Im starting to believe its a scam and they are keeping my money.

Hey Jim, just sent over a reply to your email. The Barcelona is on backorder until end of May. Apologies for the delay in reply, our team has been a little swamped to say the least. We are getting two new team members the coming 2 weeks. Take a look in your email and we'll take it from there. Thanks.

Terrible Communication

I placed an order with you almost a month ago and finally 2 weeks in I was told that the product I ordered would be out of stock until June. Knowing this, I agreed to switch to an “In stock” product and was told I would be followed up with the following week. None of this happened. I have yet to receive any communications after trying the chat feature on numerous occasions, calling, leaving messages, etc. It has been almost a month since I placed the order and still nothing.

Can someone please tell me what is going on? You have my money, but have given me no indication of the product being shipped out. I understand you being a small business and dealing with high demand but this is beyond unacceptable. I would be more than happy to change this review if someone will just communicate.

Hi Justin,

I just sent you a message. Happy to do a $400 upgrade free of charge considering the unfortunate out of stock issues. Shoot me a reply there, and we'll take it from there. I am sorry about the time it took to confirm the stock levels and the sauna switch.

Great product with the best price…

Great product with the best price around. Shipping was fast and everything arrived in perfect condition. It also arrived exactly as estimated during checkout. Only criticism would be that there was no communication between the order confirmation and the trucking company calling to schedule delivery several weeks later.

Hey Ben, thanks so much for your review. Glad you're enjoying your sauna! In some cases, the carriers are slow to provide tracking numbers, but they'll always make sure to schedule the delivery with you. We all wish you many many years of enjoyment from your Dynamic sauna!

The lack of response is astounding

The lack of response is astounding. No live chat, returned emails, or phone calls. It’s quite unsettling when many customers are spending in excess of $10K on their purchase with no idea if and when they’ll actually receive it.
Lead times online are completely misstated. 3 weeks passed on a non-custom order and it’s still “preparing to ship” and no one returns messages on any communication platform to provide an update. Get the impression they’re shutting down shop.
Chris seems to respond to reviews doing damage control repeating poor excuses.
Don’t purchase from here.

Hey Sean,

We are not shutting down shop, quite the opposite actually.

The large amount of business initially caused these problems, and we are hiring and hiring to combat up-and-down response times. Just to be clear, I am aware of the issues we've had, but ultimately, my goal is to make sure you are happy at the end of the day. I apologize for the lack of response. I've reached out via email, please look out for that.

I of course understand your view of this, however, I am not repeating poor excuses. I am explaining the situation – it's in your interest to know – apologizing, and working toward a solution. Every small business has issues, and although rare, mine is no exception. Again, my ultimate goal is to ensure you are satisfied and that you receive your sauna on time. Please check your inbox, I am looking forward to making this right for you.
