Golden Designs FAR Infrared Sauna "Monaco" Near Zero EMF 6-Person w/ Hemlock | GDI-6996-01
We love our new sauna! Great quality and design.
Made me sweat
Wifey absolutely loves this sauna (and so do I).
The instructions actually say that it's a two person assembly, but I'd say it's a three person assembly and it took the three of us 3 hours to assemble. We are absolutely in love with this sauna and are using it every night! If you have been in the market for an infrared sauna, you can't go wrong with this one.
Have owned one other brand of sauna before this one and this one will be my last it works great quality is great you can buy this product with great confidence that is everything you will hope it to be.
We recently purchased a two person low EMF infrared sauna from Saunasandstuff.com. We live in Quebec and dealt with Mike who was very helpful in assisting us in any way possible. This sauna was delivered to our home from California. Their company name is Golden Design. We must say that Karla provided excellent after sales service since we required weather-stripping and an additional door magnet. She was prompt and quick responding to our emails. We had a small issue with the delivery which Karla and Mike quickly solved. The sauna works very well and is quite therapeutic. We use it one person at a time as we like to stretch our legs, we have been enjoying it very much and with Mr. Winter soon at our door will enjoy it even more. We recommend you be two or three people to install this particular sauna. It is simple to put together, but the walls can be a little heavy to snap in together. Once again, the service received by both Mike and Karla gives us as consumers a great deal of confidence in this product. Love, love, love our new addition.

Now that I finally have the Dynamic Monaco 6-person sauna assembled, it does a good job of making me sweat. Putting it together also made me sweat.
The delivery was interesting. The delivery guy wanted to leave the 800 pound pallet in the road in front of my driveway. After considerable effort, we were able to have it dropped off on the end of my driveway. The next challenge was moving the boxes. One of the boxes weighed 108kgs (238lbs). The large, awkward boxes were very difficult to move without handles or sufficiently strong strapping.
The sauna components we packed in plenty of protective material so everything survived shipping just fine.
I read somewhere that this sauna can be assembled in 1 hour. That wasn't even close to my experience. It was closer to 5 hours with 4 guys. If you were setting this up in the middle of a large room and everything went perfect, you might be able to set it up in an hour. The room I was assembling the sauna in was about 6 inches wider than the assembled sauna and I wanted it against the back wall. After laying the floor panel down where I wanted the sauna, we assembled the back and two side walls about 10 feet in front of the floor. The buckles that connect these pieces were extremely cheap. The idea of the buckles was fine but two of six buckles broke before we during assembly. After fixing with a few short sheetrock screws, we were able to move on.
We then picked up the 3 connected wall pieces (this is where the 4 guys comes in handy) and carefully walked the assembly back to the floor panel and set them in place. You would think this would be the most difficult piece - not so.
The front (glass) panel was very heavy probably 200lbs. The cleats that hold the front panel on the side walls were installed upside down. After flipping them around, getting the front panel on was challenging. It required persuasion from a large rubber mallet.
Overall, the instructions for setup were horrible. Both the text and the pictures were practically useless. The instructions for installing the electronics were even worse.
Now that the sauna is setup, I like it. It is easy to use, heats up quickly, and is plenty comfortable. I look forward to using it for many years to come
