Before you buy: what to know
Based on the manufacturer's specs, manuals and our research.
- The Cauldron heats 50 liters of water with wood, no electricity, for washing in and around the sauna. It suits a cottage-style or off-grid cabin sauna.
- The stainless inner cauldron lifts out for cleaning, and the vermiculite fire chamber is replaceable, so the parts that see the most heat can be renewed.
- It is a separate wood-burning appliance, so plan its own flue and clearances from the installation manual alongside your stove.
- Returns are accepted within 30 days with a 25% restocking fee on unused, unopened items. Work out your room volume first, so the output you order is the right one.
