ALL ABOUT DUNDALK LEISURECRAFT SAUNAS
When looking for a quality sauna, you first want to pinpoint the right brand to buy for your home. The last thing you want to do is invest the money in a sauna to have a sub-par experience. You want to use your sauna regularly to get the most out of the relaxation and health benefits your sauna has to offer.
One of the most popular and reliable brands is Dundalk LeisureCraft saunas because they are crafted by the finest carpenters from the best materials. Not only are they high quality, but they also emphasize sustainably getting their wood so that you can feel good about your purchase (we will discuss that more later in the article.
Read on to discover all you need to know about the Dundalk LeisureCraft brand and some of its most popular saunas to purchase for your home.
The History of Dundalk LeisureCraft Saunas
You might think that all of the best backyard saunas come from Nordic countries since they are known for mastering the sauna's art. However, Dundalk LeisureCraft saunas hail from Melancthon, Canada, formally known as Dundalk, thus the name of the company. The Dundalk LeisureCraft company was founded in 2004 and is family owned. Not to mention, this family is very passionate about finding the perfect sauna for your home.
The extensive line of Dundalk LeisureCraft Saunas is some of the best-selling saunas worldwide. Every sauna is crafted from rustic wood, including cedar, pine, and maple. When the company first started, it only offered outdoor cedar furniture, but as its number of clients grew, so did the number of products it sold. LeisureCraft doesn't only limit its products to indoor and outdoor saunas, too. In fact, they also offer outdoor furniture, tiki bars, gazebos, outdoor showers, hot tubs, and more.
The products Dundalk LeisureCraft immediately extended into were saunas, followed by tiki bars and indoor furniture. Today, they are the leading manufacturers of leisure products in Canada and constantly add to their collection depending on what their clientele is looking for. Dundalk LeisureCraft is extremely open to feedback and encourages anyone who has purchased/is looking to purchase their products to let them know what they can do better or what new products they can create. This company is perfect for creating the perfect sauna experience with a premium indoor or outdoor sauna as well as a perfectly crafted hot tub to go with it.
Dundalk LeisureCraft believes its growth and success are made possible by the quality and service it puts into each product. Speaking of growth, Dundalk LeisureCraft went from a small company consisting of one tiny building housing two employees in Canada to having three buildings with 15 employees and retailers in the United States and throughout Europe.
Dundalk LeisureCraft Dedication to Sustainability
You might be wondering where the wood from your sauna or hot tub comes from. We live in a time when the wood is cut down in mass, making it hard for forests to survive and thrive. Never fear. Dundalk LeisureCraft is an eco-friendly company that prides itself on buying wood from replenishing and sustainable mills, so you can feel like you are doing some good with your purchase. Dundalk LeisureCraft looks forward to a future where they will come up with many more creations that are even more eco-friendly, made with the greatest care from skilled carpenters, and reduce the ecological footprint.
Dundalk LeisureCraft is a major supporter of the Ontario Wood Foundation, which uses wood from Canada and ensures the long-term health of forest ecosystems while keeping environmental, economic, and social benefits in mind.
Overview of Top Dundalk LeisureCraft Saunas
Now that we have discovered that Dundalk LeisureCraft saunas are one of the most popular and best brands to buy, it can be hard to limit it down to which sauna is the right one for you. Look at some of our favorite saunas models created by Dundalk LeisureCraft.
The LUNA Models
The LUNA models from Dundalk LeisureCraft are some of the most popular models they have on their roster. These types of saunas have a square shape as well as windows on the door side of the sauna so you can take in the views of your backyard while getting a quality sauna session.
These saunas can be placed anywhere in your backyard if the ground you put them on is level. They are also a size that won't overpower your backyard, and some can even fit on a patio or deck if you don't have much space in your yard. If you want a LUNA model sauna from Dundalk LeisureCraft, you need to act fast because they are so popular that some models sell out.
Some models have features like two-tier benches, so you can sit or recline however you feel comfortable. They also have EPDM membrane roofs with a stainless steel water barrier behind the siding, providing extra protection against extreme weather like heavy rain and snow. These saunas are extremely easy to install by yourself, so you don't need help from a technician unless you opt for an electric stove. The wood stove plus chimney models don't require any hired help to install.
The saunas can also hold multiple people to extend your perfect sauna session to more than just yourself. On some models, you can even choose to have a porch included with your sauna for your cool-off sessions. Lastly, most models come with robe hangers, so you have a place for your robe when you step out of the sauna.
POD Models
The POD models from Dundalk LeisureCraft look exactly like they sound – they have a distinct pod or dome-like shape. They also have windows on these models, but they are a little smaller or thinner than the LUNA models we mentioned earlier. On the other hand, these saunas have that rustic chic look that creates an ambiance that is perfect for your sauna session.
Like the LUNA models, the POD models can be placed anywhere in your backyard as long as the ground is level. You can also install this sauna on your own without the help of a technician as long as you use a wood-burning heater; an electric heater will require a little extra help.
Where the LUNA and POD differ is the amount of customizations you can do with some of these sauna models. The POD models have customizations for pretty much everything, including if you want a changing room or porch added on, the size of the entire sauna, the interior bench options, roof options, window options, or even if you want seats to relax in while cooling off outside of your sauna.
The really big selling point for these saunas is the head space. Because they are a dome or, as Dundalk LeisureCraft calls it, "raindrop shaped," you have ample room to stand up if you choose to.
Knotty Cedar Indoor and Outdoor Cabin Sauna
The major difference between the Knotty Cedar Indoor and Outdoor cabins is that. Obviously, one belongs in your bathroom or open space within your home, and the other belongs in your backyard or patio. You can choose from several sizes for both saunas depending on how many people you want to sauna with. A major difference is the heater that will be used as an indoor sauna can't use a wood-burning stove but rather an electric stove because of the smoke. The outdoor version can use either an electric or wood-burning stove.
Both saunas also have a bunch of customizations, like front wall options, bench options, and roof overhang. The larger sizes also come with two-tiered seating to accommodate more people. There aren't many windows on these models, but they are extremely easy to assemble. They won't require help from a technician unless you use an electric heater (especially with the outdoor model because you need to find a power source.)

Let customers speak for us
I haven't even built this sauna yet (Rainelle), but I have to give an ENORMOUS shoutout to Adora and especially KELLY for their help on this one. This was a big purchase for us, and these ladies went way out of their way to make it work out for us. The first sauna that showed up was badly damaged in shipping, and from what it sounds like - that is not typical. At all. So Kelly helped us to get it squared away, and it took what could have been a horrible customer experience into a fantastic one. Give this woman a raise!
We really like our sauna! Quality of the sauna seems decent. The quality of the accessories was not! The back recliner was all busted up out of the box.
My wife and I would occasionally sit in the sauna at our gym after a workout. It was hot but a little gross. I can't tell you how many times we bailed on the gym sauna session because someone else was playing their phone too loud, someone was breathing like they were gasping for air, someone decided to be shirtless in public, someone is weird or any number of other reasons. Loved the sauna feeling but HATED the gym sauna.
We bought a sauna for our home and installed it in our basement to escape the gym sauna experience. We absolutely love it! We sauna daily. Without the angst and frustration of hoping to avoid an awkward gross experience at the gym sauna.
If you are considering a sauna purchase, spend a little extra and get the WIFI enabled heater. This is the best way to make sure you get the benefit of owning a sauna. The app on our phone is easy to use. Just click the on/off button on the app and set your temperature to your desire. I like 171. My wife likes 153. Once it hits the temperature, the app will let you know. You can even turn on your sauna while you are on the way home from the gym. The WIFI version and the app make all the difference in usability and enjoyment of your investment. If we did not have the app and the WIFI version, we probably would probably skip 2/3 of the sessions we currently take.
The sauna is well made. Wood quality is excellent. Very few knots and blemishes. Hillsboro Almost Heaven saunas are a great choice for quality components, solid electronics, easy to use controls and an enjoyable sauna experience.
This is a standard kit sauna. I made several modifications but I am very satisfied with it so far. I have a few shingles left to install tomorrow and then will move onto to interior. MSW has been easy to work with and I recommend them.
I really love this sauna. I use it about four times a week to help me wind down before bed and calm my ego. Customer service at MySaunaWorld was great.
Assembly took me roughly 8–10 hours total over two days, and I’m not a particularly handy person. The step by step instructions video was straightforward and easy to follow.
I paired the sauna with the HUUM Drop 9 heater (the largest HUUM Drop), and it performs very well. I hired an electrician to install it (about $900 extra). It easily heats the sauna to 190°F plus. I personally like it around 180°F, which it reaches in about an hour. Also, you can pour water over the hot rocks to make the air hotter and steamier. Make sure to mount it low so that it can heat everything above it. (I mounted mine 6” from the ground to the base of the heater.) I love that I can start heating the sauna from my iPhone, even when I’m not on my home Wi-Fi.
I got the double-bench configuration going across the back of the sauna which lets two people lay down. The area around the lower bench is cooler which is nice to have different temperature seating options.
The sauna looks fantastic, smells great, and feels solid. I would recommend this sauna to a friend.
We love our new Almost Heaven Pinnacle barrel sauna!
Delivery was perfect, the assembly was a breeze, and the sauna fits perfectly in our space.
The only regret we have is not to have made this purchase 10 years ago!
I had been thinking about installing a sauna for quite some time. I kept going back and forth between framing one in or a prefab that I assemble. I spent several weeks going over the various websites looking at designs for both and writing out the pros/cons for each. After much deliberation, I reached out to My Sauna World to purchase an Almost Heaven Greyson.
It came way sooner than expected which was a good thing, so I had to arrange for my electrician. I assembled it very easily, with my wife holding just one panel, and then I ran into a problem. The last wall was short. It took a lot of head scratching and measuring and remeasuring as well as back and forth communication with both My Sauna World and Almost Heaven. It turned out that I had been sent 2 glass panels that were the same dimension when the 2 glass panels are actually designed with different dimensions. The new panel was sent out without question, and the rest of the assembly went easy.
I will say that the folks at My Sauna World were extremely responsive and did a great job as liaison back to the manufacturer.
Overall, I had a really positive experience, and we are very happy with the Greyson with the Harvia Spirit 8kW stove.
We also have the duckboard flooring (that is a must) sitting on top of the concrete floor. The back and leg rest are also recommended.
Note: this is advertised as a 3-4 person but in reality it is a good 2 person. And lastly, I grew up with sauna my whole life, starting with my grandpa’s wood burning sauna. This non insulated Greyson type will not get up to the same temperatures, but it does get the job done. Very pleased with the product and do recommend (to frame one in my self and buy a pre-cut kit would have cost a few thousand more overall)
Their customer service is refreshing in a world where most companies fail miserably with service. They should teach customer service to other companies and government agencies. We have only tested the actual product to make sure it works, but along the way, we had multiple questions and the replies were quick and helpful. The sauna was easy to assemble.
Frankly, I was stunned at the quality of this product. Equally stunning is how easily everything fits together. It’s well and I’m looking to an improved lifestyle.
Back rests are a nice size and fit perfectly in my Lugano 3-person sauna. They are very comfortable (especially considering they are wood) and make sitting in the sauna an even more pleasant experience. To think that they were added in free to my purchase of the sauna is hard to believe. Very pleased with customer service from My Sauna World.com !
Well built, good quality, reliable, and matches my barrel sauna very well
I purchased this since it was significantly more affordable than from the brands website. It arrived quickly and is function perfect. It's easy to install and looks great. I had issues with water leaking into the sauna before that used to annoy me. Now it stays completely dry and the wood also is protected from damage and weathering.
The best Sauna ever, and the quickest delivery, 100% recommend !!!!
Works exactly as advertised. Easy install and perfect coverage. Highly recommend.
Very good customer service. My sauna came as expected.
