Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m sorry to hear about the delivery experience and the missed appointments—that’s understandably frustrating.
While deliveries are handled by a third-party carrier, we do take these concerns seriously and work closely with our logistics partners to address issues like this when they arise. We’d be happy to look into what happened and assist in coordinating next steps. A member of our Customer Support Team will be reaching out shortly.

Updated: Sauna Was Fixed, Although With Plenty of Headache
We purchased this sauna at the end of October. It was delivered two weeks later. We assembled the sauna box and then we hired an electrician to wire it. We have a faulty heater so the sauna never properly worked. We have been trying to get this resolved with Redwood since mid November and still do not have a working sauna two months later. We have been calling almost every day to try to use our warranty to fix it and they have started to drop our calls.
UPDATE AS OF FEB: This issue was finally fixed and we have a working sauna. Now that it works we love the sauna. It just took a lot of headache to get the warrantied heater. I understand that Redwood is a small and new company and they are also partially having to deal with going through Harvia for the heater. They have communicated with us and have been very apologetic and helpful since.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m very sorry for how frustrating this situation has been, especially after the time and effort involved in delivery, assembly, and coordinating electrical work, only to be unable to fully use your sauna. I completely understand how disappointing that is.
I do want to assure you that your concerns have been received and that next steps have already been communicated. Our team is actively working toward resolution and moving this matter forward as quickly as possible.
We appreciate your patience and the opportunity to see this through.

Too Small For 6 Adults
Several pieces arrived damaged. I’ve also mentioned to Jared & the support team that this is NOT a 6-person sauna. We
Can fit 4 adults comfortably, but if we add any additional people they’ll be sitting where the heater is and will burn their legs.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that some components arrived damaged, and I appreciate you bringing that to our attention. Our support team is always happy to help address any damaged parts to ensure everything is in proper condition.
Regarding capacity, our sauna models are rated based on interior dimensions and intended seating configurations, though comfort can vary depending on individual preferences and how the space is used.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, as feedback like this helps us continue improving both our products and communication.

Nice product, extremely difficult to move and assemble.
I think the quality of the product seems good. I had an issue with a piece of wood being split for the sauna and the Redwood team helped with reconciling this issue.
Redwood undersells how labor intensive assembling the sauna will be. It takes every bit of 7-8 hours with two people to assemble and it is very difficult.
They did also not properly relay that the delivery company will drop everything off on your driveway on pallets. We had to beg them to simply move the pallets into the garage. I then had to coordinate getting a very heavy (already assembled) cold plunge to the final location which took 5 people and a dolly to move.
When ordering they definitely undersold how difficult it would be to get everything assembled in the final location at your home.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that the overall product quality met your expectations and that our team was able to assist in resolving the issue with the split wood.
We also appreciate you sharing your perspective on the assembly and delivery process. While our sales team makes it a priority to walk through build requirements, curbside delivery, dimensions, and installation considerations in detail prior to purchase, we understand that the hands-on experience can still feel more demanding than anticipated once everything arrives onsite.
Your comments are helpful in reinforcing the importance of setting clear expectations and ensuring customers feel fully prepared for delivery day and assembly. We value this feedback and will continue to look for ways to improve how this information is communicated and reinforced throughout the purchasing journey.
Thank you again for choosing Redwood Outdoors and for sharing your experience.

Our investment in the Redwood Outdoors Sauna and cold plunge has been one we never regret. The saunas benefits are unrefuted, and there are lots of sauna distributors. Our order came promptly without any issues assembly went together good we did hit a few snags and any issues that we’ve had with our purchases Customer service has been fantastic and we would definitely order from them again. We have referred them to many of our friends and they have ordered them and are thrilled with the product.

Company has been terrific!
Company has been terrific. Had a small issue with the temperature not getting hot enough so I called, and Brad was great. We walked through it and realized I had placed the heat sensor too far from the heater which was limiting the temperature. Now seems to be working great.

Good, but could be better
Initial interactions in November, with Redwood Outdoors were very positive. However, after making my purchase I received no information about shipping dates. After sending two unanswered emails I had to call Redwood Outdoors to get real time information about when my sauna would ship. Also, the floor for the sauna is on a 6-week back order, but I have received no updates about when it will be shipped. I’m 99% happy with the sauna (minor fitment issues), but “after the sale” communication could definitely use improvement.

Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback. We’re glad to hear that your initial experience with us was positive and that you’re enjoying your sauna overall—especially to the point of being 99% happy with it.
That said, I sincerely apologize for the lack of proactive communication after your purchase. You’re absolutely right to expect clear updates on shipping timelines and backordered items without having to chase information. Your experience highlights an area where we need to—and are actively working to—improve.
We truly appreciate you calling this out, as feedback like yours helps us strengthen our post-purchase communication and overall customer experience. If you’d like assistance with the remaining floor shipment or have any follow-up questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re always happy to help.

Poor Aftersales Support
Poor Aftersales Support. I bought a cedar tub from them about 4 years ago. I decided to disassemble it to move to another property. I emailed and called them to get a copy of the installation manual to reassemble it, but they won't respond. Now, I need to figure out how to reassemble it without the manual. Very annoying.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m sorry for the frustration caused when you were unable to obtain the manual you requested — I understand how disappointing that must have been, especially during a move.
I’ve since been able to locate a copy of the manual from our archived records and have reached out to you directly to share it and discuss next steps. While this hot tub model has been discontinued for some time, we always want to ensure customers have access to any documentation still available.
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and I’d welcome the opportunity to continue the conversation directly if there’s anything further I can help clarify.

Structural deficiencies but good customer service
Ongoing issues with the door fit. The door jamb is not well designed and is not moisture stable in an outdoor environment, so the door can’t always close. Door handle fell apart. The design of the heater crib is not structurally sound and requires modification to reliably hold the heavy heater. Good customer service, though. Replacement parts are sent promptly as they fail (door hinges, door handle).

Product is excellent
Product is excellent. Customer Service Excellent. The only negative is that the amount of money and time to set it up was not disclosed. We had a full group working 2 days to set it up indoors and bring the proper 220v electric to the sauna. But during setup, we had some issues and customer service picked up quickly and put someone on the phone who knew a lot about the electronics. Rare and excellent
