Carinthia 3-Person Hybrid Outdoor Sauna

A 3-seat hemlock cabin kit at $6,999 with an 8 kW heater, $2,333 a seat and 25 percent above the cabin median, with no warranty stated.

Carinthia costs $1,709 more than the SunRay Waverly, another 3-seat hemlock cabin with a 10-year warranty, and only the Redwood Outdoors Cove is dearer among the eight 3-seat saunas. In exchange the 8 kW heater is 2.67 kW per seat, well above the 1.5 typical, and the cabin is bigger: 73.6 by 84.1 inches and 97.4 tall, about 43 square feet against the Waverly's 22.

It weighs 750 pounds, 36 percent under the median for models that state weight. The name says hybrid, yet the data lists an electric heater, so confirm what that means. The SunRay Seneca is $2,109 cheaper and states 7 years. Recovery for Athletes is the only store we list.
