WILLOWYBE Outdoor Sauna Tent Pro - 4-Person, All-Weather, Insulated, Solid, Panoramic View, Easy Setup

So I should preface this by saying that this "is" a cheaper quality product than what you might get with something like a Sweat Tent, but it is close enough that it really doesn't matter. We've bought two of these, and there were slight variations in the placement of the exhaust hole, but it was not enough to affect functionality. Everything else was perfect.Some people have noted having issues getting the temperature up to an acceptable range with these tents, but I have found that it mostly just comes down to the wood. You *need* to have dry wood if you want to get above about 140F. This really isn't going to change much with a higher quality product or a more insulated true sauna. At the end of the day, you just have to use the right wood. We started using ours with oak that had only seasoned for about 6 months, and it just wasn't cutting it. After switching over to some fully dried ash wood we instantly had our temps shoot up to 180-190F. I'll start cycling in the oak again next year when it is closer to the correct moisture percentage. It also helps to measure out the depth of your furnace and cut your wood as close to that length as possible. You can get shorter logs to burn as hot, but it's just easier to manage the temperature over the entire furnace if the logs are full depth. I generally let this heat up for about 40 minutes before using it. I also tend to start the fire with the furnace vents fully open, and then switch the outlet valve to about 50% closed after I get in. This is all based off of the Willowybe furnace that is suggested as a combo with this tent, although I'm sure it would work fine with most others.I tried setting one of these up without using the entire length of exhaust piping supplied (about 10 feet cut down to maybe 6 or 7) and we quickly ran into the issue of embers landing on the top of the tent. You definitely want at least 3 feet of clearance over the top of the tent before the end of your exhaust line. Haven't had any issues since. Also try to avoid over-using paper as tinder. We usually just tear off a chunk from whatever the most recent Amazon shipping package to get ours started. Thin paper can travel up the exhaust more easily and burn holes in your tent.Assembly was a little bit of a pain, but it's way easier with a second person. I don't know how some people seem to have no issues with this at all. It's a little difficult to get the leverage to pop out the first side without someone there to hold the rest of it in place. That being said, it does not budge at all once it is set up, assuming you use your own ground ties. As other people have mentioned, the ones that come with this couldn't hold a hamster in place. Just go to any hardware store and pick up 4 spiral ground tie stakes. We set up our tent in an area where it can use the house as a wind-block, and we have not taken it down yet despite a few major storms passing through.All-in-all, if the thing lasts 2 years I'd be happy with it. It's 1/5 the cost of the other big brands... It does what it's supposed to do, and it does it well enough.

I've been trying out different sauna sets for my family over the past year because my parents are really into longevity and wellness practices. They believe that using a sauna a few times a week has great health benefits, and having one at home makes it so much more convenient. The WILLOWYBE Outdoor Sauna Tent Pro is by far the best model we've tried.First off, it's incredibly spacious—easily fitting four people without feeling cramped. The insulation is top-notch, keeping the heat in effectively, which makes for a great sauna experience even in colder weather. It's also built solidly and can handle all kinds of weather, so we don’t have to worry about it getting damaged outside.The panoramic view is a fantastic feature, making the sauna feel open and relaxing rather than claustrophobic. Setup is surprisingly easy and quick, much better than other models we've used that took forever to assemble.Since we started using this sauna, my parents have been more consistent with their sessions, and they love it.

I recently bought this Sauna Tent, and I’m honestly really impressed! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but this thing has been amazing for relaxing outdoors, even in freezing weather.If you’re looking for a portable outdoor sauna, this is a great choice. It’s sturdy, super easy to set up, and works really well in all conditions. Totally worth the price in my opinion.

Pros: heats up nicely, comfortable windows and doors, quick set-up every time.Cons: stove jack velcros on great, but there’s no way to secure the permanent flap on top so the wind blew the flap into the stove pipe while is was in it and melted a hole, have to add some kind of heat shield because the stove is really close to the edge of the tent and any time you heat it up past 140 degrees you need a heat shield between the tent and stove otherwise it starts to heat up the tent uncomfortably hot to the point it smells like it’s melting.

Have been using for a few weeks now with a compact wood burning sauna stove. It is was not as easy to get it up alone ac I had hoped but once up it has been terrific!! Included stove pipe outlet works well and the windows are a real bonus. Have had it up to 190 degrees and it holds heat and humidity well. Excellent for the price and a great way to get started with sauna experience and have a portable unit to bring to our camp or move about the property. Very pleased.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Had it for over a year and compare to other saunas it hold heat like crazy I love it use all winter long

I initially really enjoyed this tent and thought it was a great deal vs. some of the other tent saunas out there. After less than a year of occasional use, I noted that one of the windows was starting to degrade and tear. I contacted the manufacturer and they said “Your product has been purchased for more than a year, outdoor products will wear out relatively quickly.” In fact, I contacted them when I’d had the tent slightly less than a year. They also said that the “seal of the window should have opened due to overheating, which is considered a normal occurrence.” It seems odd to me that a sauna tent materials could get overheated, especially since the stove was not close to that window. I guess you get what you pay for.
