JNH Lifestyles Joyous 2-Person Low EMF FAR Infrared Sauna with Chromotherapy Light for Home Indoor Spa Use - 7 Carbon Fiber Heaters, Canadian Hemlock Wood

I absolutely love having this sauna at home. The convenience alone is a game changer — no scheduling, no driving, just step in and use it whenever I want. It has become a seamless part of my routine. Assembly was surprisingly easy, and the unit itself is very user-friendly and straightforward to operate. In terms of performance, I’ve been extremely impressed. Honestly, it works as well as — if not better than — the sauna I was previously using at a wellness clinic, which makes this an incredible value for the price. It heats efficiently, functions exactly as advertised, and clearly does what it’s intended to do. For the cost, the functionality and effectiveness exceeded my expectations. The only downside: one small part arrived slightly damaged. It wasn’t a major issue and didn’t prevent me from using or enjoying the sauna, but for the price point I would expect smoother resolution. Unfortunately, my experience with customer service at JNH hasn’t been very helpful so far. It’s something to consider if you were to encounter a more serious issue. That said, the product itself is excellent, and I would absolutely still recommend it. The quality, performance, and convenience far outweigh the minor hiccup

Oh Wow I just got my Sauna and put it together right away. I have used it several times now. I have to hand it to this company, the quality of the engineering of this thing is perfect, the parts fit perfectly and it was put together (alone) in about 30 minutes, though I recommend two people working on it, because lifting the heavy parts are a little much for a single person. Plugged it in and as soon as it had "burned in" I tried it out. Everything worked perfect~! Used it several times sense. I have started off with 30 minutes at 110 degrees will increase time and temperature as soon as I know what is comfortable. The heating elements never get so hot that touching them would give you a burn, though I have a bad habit of putting my feet against the lower ones. It heats up in less than 15 minutes. Good part. Excellent quality, engineering and planning for the price. Bad part: Well they really need to work on the instructions. Much can be done to improve this. Though common sense tells you how to put together a box. First trying to get all on one page while leaving the back unused is a mistake on their part. Darker larger pictures would be an improvement. They need to say more about the electrics such as the speakers music attachment and mood light etc. After all this is about the only thing I had a question on. One last thing is that they tell you to unplug the unit after each use. Now if you are pulling that plug out each time you use it, soon you will have a problem. A master switch to turn off the transformer would be much more practical. If you have not special switch wired for it, I would suggest a small switched power strip such as is used with computer equipment. A couple of other hints. In attaching the heating units. Put the bottom screw in first so you can tilt the unit to see the hole, then you can see the top one just looking down. I learned this the hard way, stabbing a hole I could not see was a problem. Also leave the two elements toward the front off until you have placed the seat front in. If you are like me and do this backwards, no worry, just unlatch the front latches of bottom sides and slightly splay the sides out gently to make room for sliding this in. No scratches, No problem. I will be sending pictures when the project is complete as I am making a special place for the unit.

The only place we have for the two person sauna is in the attic. Three stories up. The delivery driver had paperwork that said he was to assist in "inside" delivery. Taking pity on him, and knowing I did not want to share the rather disorganized space in the attic I told him help just getting it to the back door was quite sufficient, thank you. The packaging was quite amazing in its ability to protect the contents. And quite efficient to boot. I was impressed. And I unpacked on the driveway at the back door as I needed every inch of space to make the tight journey and knew the packaging was adding to overall dimensions. The set up was very straight forward. I would recommend having a helping hand, but I managed quite well alone. Bit of a juggling act with one person trying to hold in place and snap the buckles. But quite possible. Could not believe the degree of precision of the parts and how well they fit together. Truly a well made article through and through. And the instructions, quite clear and precise. The use of the sauna is just wonderful! Quickly heats to assigned temperature. Holds the temperature well and the controls are straight forward. All in all, I am quite satisfied with my purchase and the value. Oh, and the added safety feature of the timer is much appreciated. If I get interrupted before using the sauna it turns itself off after the appointed time. Well done, JNH. Thank you. If I could make a suggestion to improve the experience it would be to add instructions as to how to find time in a busy day to enjoy your sauna more. But I suspect that is beyond the range of tasks you want to undertake. As well it should be. Perhaps my joy will be sufficient motivation to be more creative and constructive about my time and priorities. My apologies for the tardy review. Been meaning to get to this since the day of arrival. Today is the day I tackled 326 emails in my inbox. So the deed is done and I'm on to the balance of the emails. Thanks again for a great product at a great price with great delivery and wonderful instructions. J Moberg PS, the Attic is calling my name.

This has been a great sauna. It warms up quickly, holds the heat, and the timer, lights, and remote control are great. Assembly definitely takes two people due to the size, bulk, and weight of the pieces; however, the instructions are very easy and straightforward and can be assembled in an hour or two. A word of warning, this thing was delivered in one giant crate on a pallet and it was impossible for two people to move it. It had to be opened in the driveway and brought into the house piece-by-piece. Delivered early though, so that's a plus. Once you use it though, you can feel the heat radiating off the panels, and it feels great in you joints and bones. Can have a good sweat worked up in under 10 minutes. The price point on this is a little high, but I will say, I am glad I purchased it and I will get a lot of use out of it. This sauna makes me happy that I decided to go with the Infrared (dry) instead of my first choice, the traditional steam sauna. Cleaning it is easy-peasy. Also, makes a great conversation piece when friends come over. They've all wanted to try it.

Everything about this sauna is great. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is the shipping. I had read that it was delivered inside the door. FYI mine came in one giant box and was dropped outside, on its side with the box partially broken and left in the pouring rain. I have a covered breezeway that was 15 feet away that they could’ve dropped it in. That was the carrier’s fault, not the seller’s. The customer service was immediately responsive and offered to help out in case the sauna was damaged. I was able to unbox and move in every panel myself (I’m a fairly large man though), only needing help for the door. Set up was very easy following the video instructions and went quickly. We’ve used it multiple times now, heats up in 15-20 minutes and is very comfy inside. I would absolutely recommend as the product seems to be high quality and customer service is top notch.

This is a PERFECT entry into the infrared sauna world. If you read all of the reviews you get a pretty good idea of exactly what this is all about but I will do my best to review as objectively as possible. As a matter of fact, if possible I would have lowered to 4.5 stars as I think 5 might be too high for the little things I will get into but 4 was too low because they are little things. The sauna us a "dry" heat and therefore you do not start to sweat for a few minutes after you enter the box. It is comfortable for one person and two could be in together if they are not of the larger variety. That having been said the LAST THING I would want to do is touch another person while I am detoxing and hot and sweaty. The delivery was exactly on the day expected and even earlier than the window scheduled. They brought the 3 boxes into my living room and left them there. Unfortunately for me, I was installing it upstairs so I needed to carry the items upstairs myself. This task took longer than actual assembly. The glass door is very heave and not recommended for one person to move. After I got all of the pieces upstairs I studied the instructions. First negative point is the INSTRUCTIONS SUCK. Anyone with any experience could figure it out but because the instructions are so bad, they seem to contradict common sense. Most of it was easy as there are latches that "suck" the tongue and groove panels into place but be aware that if they are not perfectly lined up, they will not latch properly. One other issue is with the heater control box. Make sure all of the long cords are facing the back when installing. Again, this seems like common sense but the picture on my instructions seemed to show that it should be the other way. Didn't take too long to figure out that that was incorrect. The only other issue I had is with the bench. It secures with L brackets and is not the most sturdy. This is again, a small issue but when shifting positions the bench clearly moves and makes noise. The temperature and time controls are simple to use. There is an ionizer cable that I have NOT used. The speakers are average at best and although you can supposedly take a smartphone or Ipad in the unit I found them to get extremely hot and think that CAN'T be good for them. I have found that if you place your phone on the roof with the speaker right on the vent, you can hear the phone perfectly. Of course people outside the unit can now here the music too so that is not that good but I am not blasting music while I am in the unit anyway. There is a chromatherapy light socket but be aware of the fact that according to JNH only their bulb is compatible. I did order one from Amazon for a fraction of the price but it did not work. Thir bulb is 150 (75 for the holiday sale) and I will not pay that for it. I prefer the dark. There is a small LED reading light that gives off more than enough light in the unit. Once installed the box is ready to go. Mine is in a walk in closet and not a very cold room, but it takes at least 25-35 minutes to reach 140 (my preferred temp). The bench is plenty wide. in both directions but understand without a backrest or neck rest (both after purchases) you cannot lean back against the heating units so you need to sit right in the middle unless the back rest or neck rest is purchased (packs of 2). All of these amount to really small inconveniences that don't really add up to much. I love the Shvitz (Yiddish for sweat) and knowing I am detoxing. I am very happy with this purchase and if I had the space, would definitely have gotten a larger unit. Pro's: Footprint is not that big Easy to assemble in spite of the directions Unit is easy to use and the heat is consistent throughout the timed session Price for the quality is very good Unit runs on a regular residential outlet. No upgrade necessary. Cons: Instructions suck bench installation is a little rickety being comfortable against the heaters will require additional purchase of either the neck rest or back rest (or both) Using the chromatherapy light socket is proprietary and requires the purchase of their bulb (according to their customer service).

Update June 2025: It has now been many years since we purchased and assembled the sauna, and it is still working great. A few years ago we installed two larger outdoor rated patio speakers inside the sauna on the ceiling and connected them to a small amp and a Chromecast audio. These are better then the tiny speakers that the sauna comes with. We love the sauna. Great value for money. Update: Two days after I posted my review I was contacted by JNH. They were very apologetic and I appreciate their getting back to me. They send me a complimentary color light bulb. I am updating the rating from 4 starts to 5. In reality, I am going from a 4.25 to a 4.75! I apologize for not updating the review earlier - life got in the way. My wife and I have been enjoying the sauna a lot. I have weatherstripping on all four sides of the door and that makes the sauna much hotter. We now keep the sauna at just 125 F. -----Original Review----- First let me say that I have had this sauna for about a month and my wife and I love this JNH 2 person FIR sauna and we use it five times a week. The delivery folks were efficient and called and let us know when they would arrive. They left the three large boxes at the entrance to my house. My wife and I took the individual boxes inside. Setup was super easy and took us a little more than an hour. The instructions were clear. I had purchased a switched outlet from Amazon so that I would not have to unplug the sauna after every use. The glass door does not seal tight and results in cold air coming in. The cold air resulted in our feet staying cold. So I purchased a 3/8" wide 3/16" thick brown foam weatherstripping from Home Dep and applied it along three sides of the door frame (this weatherstripping foam was too thick to apply along the long side of the door where the magnetic latch is. I will buy some V weatherstripping for this side.) After the weatherstripping was applied the sauna became much warmer, and now it uses less electricity. Now, at 130F for 40 minutes the sauna uses only 0.85 kWh. The bench is plenty wide for my wife and me to sit side by side. We use JNH's backrests. I cut two 22" long pieces of 1x4 pine lumber and placed them flat against the back wall and then the backrests are butted up against the 1x4 pieces. This lets me recline the backrests and prevents the backrests from sliding back. You can use 1x6 pieces for a bigger recline. I used two 22" pieces rather than one long 44" piece so that my wife and I can independently control our recline. When only one of us is using the sauna we sit sideways with our feet on the bench (knees bent) and the backrest is placed horizontally against the side wall. It fits great. The 'premium speakers' are not good and after testing it I have never used them. Instead I purchased a 2.1 power subwoofer computer speaker unit which I have placed on top of the sauna. The tweeters are placed on top of the vent holes (and the plastic vents inside are kept open). The subwoofer is placed on top of the sauna with the speaker pointing down. My phone is placed on a small side table outside the sauna and I start the music before entering the sauna. The sound is much better than from the built in speakers. JNH's customer service was, surprisingly, not all that great. They never called me. I called to complain about the drafty, leaky door and the lady said it was a feature to allow air circulation! They said they would call back in a few days to check in on my experience, but they did not.

We bought this sauna after my wife stopped going to her salon that had one. We figured it would get used more at home anyway. We just received the 2 person sauna this week and so far, we love it! Delivery was easy - a skid dropped off to our garage with 3 packages (fair warning, they are big and hard for one person to move alone). We had no problem moving each piece upstairs with the 2 off us (though going around corners is a little tough). The directions could use some more detail, but it's not impossible to figure out if you're looking at the pieces. We were able to set it up in under 2hrs and while we had two people, it could potentially be done with one. Everything was smooth sailing and we fired up the unit as soon as everything was connected. Works like a dream! The panels heat up very quickly and the whole sauna was nice and toasty in just a few minutes. It's already helped with muscle soreness and headaches and we will be getting the chromotherapy light very soon so we're excited about that feature as well. We haven't fully tested the Bluetooth just yet but will likely use that more in the wintertime when the snow falls and we can spend some more time in there (it's 90 right now). Overall, this is the best home purchase we've made so far. A few things to note: 1. The 2 person uses a standard 15amp plug so no electrician is needed, however, I do think the 3-person and bigger use a higher amp so you may need to re-wire. 2. We had a few issues with the smaller stapled pieces popping out of the panels and the side of the door, so we just stapled them back in - no harm no foul, worse things happen with shipping. 3. We laid down some heavy-duty exercise mat under the unit to protect the floor - I would recommend this just in case - especially with hardwoods (we bought ours at home depot from the flooring section, it's made to go under treadmills). 4. And lastly, the unit can be dusty from the ride over, so be sure to wipe it down as you go with a dry cloth.
