UPDATE: Nearly a year later, we are STILL trying to recover our money from Enlighten Sauna. We placed an order in 2025. We experienced months of delays, inconsistent communication, and repeated excuses. When a sauna finally arrived, it was the WRONG MODEL and missing parts. We immediately notified the company and were still told to assemble and modify it ourselves. We ultimately returned the incorrect unit and requested a full refund. In September 2025, Enlighten Sauna sent us written confirmation and a credit note stating we would receive a full refund totaling $9,502.88. To date, we have only recovered part of the funds through a credit card dispute and are STILL owed $5,000. At this point: -Multiple disputes have been filed through our bank -An attorney has sent letters and emails with no response -Calls and emails routinely go unanswered -There appears to be no accessible management or billing department capable of resolving issues -Multiple recent reviews describe similar experiences involving refunds and communication -Attached is the written credit note and refund confirmation sent by Enlighten Sauna in September 2025 acknowledging the refund owed, which remains unpaid. What should have been an exciting purchase has turned into a year-long battle simply trying to recover money we were told would be refunded. Please read recent reviews carefully before doing business with this company.

side view - all good, Notice the sloped roof is really to shallow a slope to limit water infiltration.

Dave L. Orig post 7.26.25 It's now 8 mo old. (Had huge delays up front and customer communication is terrible.) Roof was reshingled, before winter. N Mich had alot of snow this yr and the hybrid sauna had trouble keeping the temp up without the digital panel alarming and shutting power down. I wanted remote control of the stove, so I contacted Harvia-USA, Enlighten had sold me a unit not authorized or certified for US distribution. Stove and infrared both work fine, so far, - but unfortunately because of the digital control box, there is no way to set this stove up for remote phone activation :( which is very very disappointing. I'm now, moderately happy with the unit overall, it works and looks nice. Cedar wood is attractive and consistent appearance. Used professional home building crew for assembly, two half days time. I've have had some water seepage around speakers, and wouldn't be surprised if I had some mold in roof space like other posts. The door transom isn't angled, so in the winter - water builds up and eventually refreezes so the door can't be opened with out a rubber mallet and chisel to 'gently' remove the ice dam from the door to get it the unit. Door magnets don't keep door secure in winds over 12-15 which we get off the bay, I added stronger magnets-neodymium, problem solved. This past winter that was 5 or 6 times and I was gone for 6 weeks of it. New pics" If I had it all to do again, I'd but from a local shop or have one custom built. I saved some money but in retrospect it wasn't worth it and I didn't end up with my top wants. YGWYPF.

Enlightened Sauna did a fabulous job. Professional installers expeditiously with great expertise put together the sauna.

Enlightened did an awesome job. The sauna is fantastic. The installers were superior. The installers were so professional so polite answered several questions that I had very detail oriented. Very impressive on their professional work. Itself is fantastic.

We've had our 3-person sauna for eight years. My wife loves it, and it still looks awesome in our backyard. It gets a lot of use. The LCD panel is starting to get a bit hard to read, so we decided to replace it. The support from the Enlighten folks was excellent. We simply sent a few photos of the electronics under the sauna bench and the LCD panel and they identified new electronics which have been updated since our sauna was built. I was given the support number for assistance with installation and was told to call anytime should I want more information or help. Professional and pleasant. Thank you.

Using a level so you can see the buckling

Yes, my Sauna was just out of the three year warranty. But I vetted this company along with others before purchasing for our home in the foothills of the mountains in Washington state. Two years ago we had 5 feet of snow in 48 hours. I had to dig my sauna out to use it! Every year I would call and get help with maintenance assistance. Water leaking through the windows, varnish buckling etc... I was a bit miffed about the problems so soon after purchasing but grateful for the help. Then this last fall. The roof completely failed. My husband, just to get through the harsh winter put a tarp over the roof. After the snow thawed this spring he realized the roof was completely rotten and had to remove it. That's when I called the company for help. I sent photos, many photos. When we moved the sauna away from the house the back of the sauna was buckled due to water intrusion. I was asked to get a quote for repairs and did and sent it in to Enlighten. Quote was $6900. It was basically a redo. That was May 26th 2025. I was told someone would phone me back within one week. NO ONE EVER DID. I was kind and patient. Today I received an email that basically said "sorry, you are out of warranty. Thanks for choosing Enlighten, have a nice day" Please make sure and do your due diligence if you live in a very wet and rainy area or a mountain and snowy area. You won't fare well.

That fence is 6 feet high. 1,800 lbs of confusion.

I've bought almost all the tile for my bathrooms and fireplaces here…read more The second time we ordered at 6pm for store pick up on a Saturday but decided to go in and pick it up instead. DONT DO THAT. They make a BIG fuss. Just order for pick up and wait for your ready message or go in store to pick it up yourself and buy at the register. Anyway, apart from the lady in the black apron making a fuss, this experience was top tier. We knew exactly what we wanted and knew the store was closing soon so my husband got the flat bed cart thing and carried our one year old straight to the back corner with my son following behind him. They left me in the dust because I am heavily pregnant and was waddling. Every store employee we passed told me "we're closing soon" so when I saw my husband up ahead walk past a worker and the worker look back at him, turn course, and begin to follow my husband I thought "we better hurry up" this guy is going to tell us they're closing soon but nope! He was soo nice! Asked us if we had questions, helped my husband load our flat bed cart because we were getting twelve boxes of 12x36 tile, got a forklift to pull out the boxes in the back and walked us to where the grout that was in display is located. I believe his name is Luis! Thank you Luis for a wonderful experience. We're sincerely sorry if we got you in trouble. You didn't know we ordered ahead until we got to the register. If anything this man deserves a promotion! Top tier customer service! Also, we hurried to this location to get the tile we wanted because it was $30 cheaper per box than the location by our home! Thats why we always make the trip to this location.

Interesting experience today......not busy at all.... In fact I only saw maybe 3 customers....i…read morewent to look at vinyl flooring for a commercial building..... I found some but the chances of me finding anyone to help me was zero....lots of help doing nothing....wait, they were doing something on their phones....and there was a staff meeting I guess, about 5 of them were discussing something in a circle....they are great at ignoring customers.... I should have known better....same thing happened last year and I ended going somewhere else for my hardwood floor.... That sad part is they have a lot of options.....and I really wanted to buy or order.....but after going to the tile section (same thing happened there) I was exhausted.... What's really crazy is there are more people to help you at Home Depot???......

She was very knowledgeable about product and design. She made the ordering process very easy. She also emailed me updates on my order.

The delivery was made within the time frame that was offered to me. The delivery team Eddie, Jonathan and Heber were very professional and handled the furniture with care. I will definitely consider this store again for my furniture needs.

She is nothing short of personal, professional & has been very accommodating in helping me return a coffee table which I purchased that looked like a sarcophagus in my LR! It was a beautiful table, however I overlooked some of the measurements & didn't realize it was way too oversized for my room. I was able to exchange it for a bleached teakwood end table which now looks stunning in my room! I now shop for the remainder of the items online & forward pics to Mackenzie via text & together we agree/disagree on the items we think would be most suitable for my needs. She has a good eye for design. I am very happy with the customer service I've rec'd from this store & will continue to shop here!

I wish we would have checked the reviews before buying from here…read more I went with my sister in law to buy all new furniture for her new apartment. She bought several pieces, thousands worth, including a $750 matress. What the salesperson FAILED to tell us was that the floor model was SIGNIFICANTLY softer that the new one she would recieve because hundreds, if not thousands of people have broken it down. The matress was delivered and immediately we realized that it was hard, like rock hard. Like sleeping on a cement slab. She called and got their standard auto reply of "you just need to break it in" and their "sorry, youre outta luck - too bad for you" attitude. The time it would take to break this matress in to even half of what the floor model felt like would take years. Its completely unrealistic, shes just 1 person! Whats worse is she isnt able to get comfortable and is having lingering effects from loss of sleep and physical pain. She had to buy an expensive mattess topper which slightly helps but still.... NOT THE POINT and not 100% remedied. We tried emailing Living Spaces customer help, customer service and even a corporate email we found and they all bounced back. Its clear they have no intention of helping us. Fortunately there are consumer laws but its a shame we have to even go in that direction. It would have been nice and more importantly it would have been fair for them to not only advise of the difference in feel but remedy the situation by allowing for a courtesy exchange. Jeez, even the ability to correspond would be nice instead of having to resort to alternative recourses. Literally any other mattress chain allowes for at least a 30 day exchange. Living Spaces, you have earned your 2 star reviews.
