Buying a sauna shouldn't feel like a guessing game
- Hundreds of models, and no clear answer on which one fits your space
- Heater specs in kW and cubic feet, and wiring you're not sure you have
- A 1,000-pound sauna, and no idea how it gets to your backyard
- Big questions before a big purchase, and nobody to ask
We match you with the right sauna, heater and setup for your space, show the full price before you buy, and deliver it to your door, fully assembled if you want.

Questions we get asked most
What types of saunas does Cedar Sense sell?
Outdoor barrel, cube, cabin and luxury saunas, indoor traditional saunas, infrared and hybrid saunas, mobile sauna trailers, and sauna heaters. We also carry cold plunges, outdoor showers and wood-fired hot tubs to round out a sauna setup.
Do you ship saunas outside of Minnesota?
Yes. We ship saunas, cold plunges, outdoor showers and most products across the continental United States. Shipping depends on the product and your location. You'll see it at checkout, or we'll include it in your quote.
Can you install or assemble my sauna?
In many parts of the upper Midwest we can assemble and install it or connect you with trusted partners. Elsewhere, most saunas arrive as kits designed for a handy homeowner or a local contractor. Contact us to talk through options for your area.
Wood-fired or electric heater: which should I choose?
Wood-fired stoves give a traditional, off-grid feel with a softer heat and the crackle of a fire. Electric heaters are cleaner, easier to control and often come with Wi-Fi and timers. The right choice usually comes down to available power, local codes and the experience you want.
How long does it take to get my sauna?
Lead times vary by model and season. Most saunas ship within a few weeks to a couple of months, and custom builds can take longer. We'll give you an estimated timeline before you order.
How do I get a price with delivery included?
Send us the model you're looking at and your zip code through the sauna quote form, or call or text 218-760-2041. We'll email you a delivered price, usually within 1 business day.
Ready to price out your sauna?
Tell us what you're looking at and where it's going. We'll send back a delivered price and an honest recommendation.
