I'd consider just getting some foam interlocking tiles (type that may be used for a home gym or something) to put under the sauna for your hardwood. Appreciate the review, the info on the distilled water is good to know.

Thanks for the review. I’ve been considering one.

I’ve enjoyed my purchase.

Great review, I'm just starting to look at these. Why the distilled water do they require it?

The distilled water created the steam, tap water is not sterile while distilled is, so you could be exposed to water borne pathogens if u use regular water would by my guess… like a CPAP machine

Seems pretty cool. I wonder if there’s something that can be done to rectify the issue with your ankles being too close to the steam. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I eventually found a spot to put it where I don’t have that issue, just move it around until you find a spot that works for you.

Love your video can you demonstrate how we clean out the little black box?

It just opens an I dump whatever water is in there out

Great video sir, I also have one and would agree that the container on the floor for sure can burn the ankles which can be annoying at times. I normally just re-position mine and then switch up my feet stance to avoid the steam but I for sure get what you mean. My last con I would point out with this saunabox is keep in mind everyone that the hole where the humidifier connects on the tent is only available on the right side facing the box. In my room setup I really needed to position it on the left side to be out of the way from the walk way of the closet of where I have it. To avoid this I had to create a small incision/hole on the left and patch up the right side so no leaks get out. But, besides that this saunabox is awesome !

Never even thought about the hole for the connections, valid point

Hello,,,i bought the Saunabox also,,,i think its great, i use it almost daily,,,i set to level 4 for 30 mins, but usually get out around 22ish mins,,,i put a towel on floor, and one on the chair so it hangs down to block the ankle steam blast,,,i love the Saunabox, especially in winter,,just wipe it down and air it out each time,,,,good tip about the floor 👍, i agree ,money well spent 🏆

Thanks for watching, the towel on the floor is that underneath on the outside or inside over the mat?

Curious, did you look at nurecover and saunabox both? I've been looking at the two, and they seem almost identical.

I looked a at both, yea they seem identical there was no reason why I bought 1 over the other.

It may be too late for you, but I watched another video that did a side-by-side comparison and takeaway is the Saunabox has superior performance, likely due to superior materials/insulation.

Do you keep yous inside? Any issues when airing out or concern of getting moisture on your ceiling or walls?

@TheNauticalHippo

Always inside, and zero issue with moisture.

I have one question i am considering buying one and i too have hard wood floors what did you do to fix that issue with the scaring on your floor? Aside from the scaring has there been moisture leakage or condensation pooling on the floor underneath the sauna that will cause damage to the floor?

I put gym mats down underneath and have had no issues since, and no issues moisture leakage or condensation

How long did it take from when you ordered it until you received it?

How long does moisture stay in sauna after you are done? Website says to towel dry and leave flap open but leaving moisture in there seems like bacteria/mold/mildew could become an issue.

I’ve had no issues, I dry it off after use, hang the mat in the shower, no mold or mildew for me

Im planning on buying one - would it be possible to just put a towel or something on the floor and have it on that? Maybe even a gym floor heavy duty matt?

Is it possible to purchase the steam unit separate? Already have the sauna portion.
