What's the advantage of the barrel shape?

The barrel design is brilliant in its simplicity. With less unused air space at the top, the sauna heats up much faster and more efficiently, saving you time and energy. The curved shape also naturally sheds rain and snow, making it incredibly durable and low-maintenance in any climate.

Should I get an electric or wood-burning heater?

This comes down to your preferred experience. An electric heater offers set-and-forget convenience and precise temperature control. For an authentic, off-grid ritual with a satisfying crackle, nothing beats a barrel sauna with a wood-burning stove.

Is a porch or a glass front worth it?

Absolutely. A barrel sauna with a porch is a game-changer, providing a perfect sheltered spot to cool down between sessions. For the ultimate experience, a barrel sauna with a glass front creates a stunning panoramic view, connecting you with your natural surroundings while you relax.
