Shipping & Delivery Information

Free Delivery Damage Insurance Included With Purchase

 Curbside Delivery ships via Freight to the 48 contiguous states. The freight carrier will contact you 24 to 48 hours prior to delivery to set a delivery day and time Monday-Friday, with a 4-hour open window.

      They won’t deliver without speaking to you first. **Shipping times are only approximate, and can change depending on environmental conditions, transit issues, and carrier’s availability. Last minute appointments can occur, and it’s out of our hands since the delivery process is managed by the carrier’s. The sauna will be delivered in 1 box or more, depending on the model. All boxes will be strapped to a pallet. All saunas are delivered in a 53-foot semi-truck with a single driver, who will unload the pallet to your curbside or driveway only. Any delivery questions or issues (remote areas, long driveways, large and low hanging trees, apartment complex, stairs, etc.) should be addressed with us prior to shipping your sauna.

        Once the driver has unloaded the sauna, we ask that you immediately inspect the boxes for any damage. Please indicate any minor scratches, indentations, or scuff marks to the outside of the boxes on the delivery receipt. You do not need to open the boxes to inspect the sauna. The freight company will deliver your sauna to a carport or first-floor entryway. Please check the box dimensions and ensure it will fit through your doorway. Assembly on these saunas are surprisingly easy and can take between 30-45 minutes, depending on the sauna. Assembly instructions are included with the saunas.

The Build

Four Things That Set The Barn Cabin Apart

Golden Designs give the barn models a different roof line and a different ceiling light from the rest of the outdoor range. Here is what they specify on the Kaarina.

🏚️
Barn Profile, 95 Inches Tall
Golden Designs put "Barn" in this model's name. They give the exterior as 69 inches wide by 84 inches deep by 95 inches high, and note that the roof overhang adds four inches to the depth — so allow 88 inches on the deep axis, and 84 for what stands on the ground.
69" × 84" Exterior
Galaxy Star Ceiling
Golden Designs list an interior ceiling galaxy star colour therapy lighting system on the Kaarina, where the non-barn cabins in this range carry an interior chromotherapy colour lighting system instead.
Ceiling-Mounted
🔥
8.0 kW Stove With Built-In Controls
An 8.0 kW stove with integrated controls heats the six-person room, on a 240V / 40 AMP service. Golden Designs state 170–185°F as the ideal band and 190°F as the maximum.
240V / 40 AMP
🚪
Bronze Privacy Tempered Glass
The door is bronze privacy tempered glass. Golden Designs give no reason for the tint and no dimension for the panel. Behind it, the interior is lined in all natural Canadian red cedar.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Golden Designs specify a 6 person capacity. That is their figure for this model, and it is the one we publish.
We are not publishing interior dimensions for the Kaarina. Golden Designs' published interior figures for this model are internally inconsistent — the stated interior width is larger than the stated exterior width, which cannot be right. We could guess at which reading was intended. We have left the field blank and asked Golden Designs to confirm it. Ask us before you order and we will get the interior figures from the manufacturer in writing. The exterior dimensions on this page are Golden Designs' own and are not affected.
69" W × 84" D × 95" H, with the roof overhang adding 4 inches to the depth. Golden Designs state no pad or foundation requirement. At 1,650 lbs across 10 boxes, plan the route from the kerb to the site as carefully as the site itself.
Yes. An 8.0 kW stove with built-in controls is specified as part of the sauna, along with the interior ceiling galaxy star colour therapy lighting system, the interior LED control panel with FM station and Bluetooth, built-in performance speakers, and a sandglass, bucket and scoop. Golden Designs name no stove brand for the Kaarina and make no statement about stones, so we publish neither.
240V / 40 AMP for the stove, and 120V / 15 AMP for the control, lights and music. Golden Designs instruct buyers to consult a certified electrician, and Recovery For Athletes recommends the same — both circuits run and terminated by a licensed electrician.
Golden Designs describe it as an interior ceiling galaxy star colour therapy lighting system. That is the whole of the lighting line on this model, where the non-barn cabins in the range are listed with an interior chromotherapy colour lighting system instead. Golden Designs give no further detail on it, so neither do we.
An all-weather exterior with an interior in all natural Canadian red cedar, entered through a bronze privacy tempered glass door. No exterior species is stated by Golden Designs, so we state none. The model is listed for outdoor use, with a warranty condition attached: outdoors, a waterproof cover or the sauna's own roof panel must protect the room, and weather damage to an unprotected or badly maintained cabin is excluded. Golden Designs describe surface cracks and some water seepage as a normal tendency of outdoor application, and say the water usually dries off in the heated environment.
Free curbside delivery from Recovery For Athletes. Everything that happens on the day is Golden Designs' own published shipping term, not ours. The freight carrier telephones you 24 to 48 hours before delivery to agree a day and time, and the delivery itself normally falls inside a 4-hour window. Ten boxes arrive strapped vertically to a pallet on a 53-foot semi-truck, and Golden Designs state that the single driver will unload the pallet only to your curbside or the end of your driveway. No liftgate is mentioned anywhere in their terms and nothing past the kerb is offered, so at 1,650 lbs arrange help and equipment to move the load to the site. Raise anything unusual about the approach — a long driveway, low branches, stairs, a remote area, an apartment complex — with us before the sauna ships. Golden Designs ask you to inspect the boxes as soon as the driver has unloaded and to mark any scratches, indentations or scuff marks on the delivery receipt; you do not need to open the boxes to do it, and they say to refuse delivery outright if you see a large hole. Their terms set out no damage window after that inspection, so the check at the kerb is the one that counts.
Golden Designs cover the wood structure for 5 years when properly maintained, along with the control panel, its wiring harnesses and the lights, from the original date of purchase. Cover is parts only. The stove is excluded from the Golden Designs warranty — it carries its own manufacturer's warranty, and a stove claim goes to that manufacturer. Outdoor placement is permitted under this document provided a waterproof cover or the sauna's roof panel protects the room, which is a meaningfully better position than the separate warranty covering Golden Designs' infrared range. Full commercial use voids cover, as does transfer of ownership or relocation. Defective parts must be returned to Golden Designs and you pay the return shipping, duties and taxes. Keep your receipt. Recovery For Athletes is an authorized Golden Designs dealer, and full terms are in the Warranty tab.
Golden Designs state that their products are thoughtfully designed and developed at their California headquarters, and describe their Ontario, California site as a distribution facility. They do not state a country of manufacture for this model, so we do not claim one.
