Included with every freight delivery: a post-delivery call

Freight is not parcel delivery. The window to report damage is short, often 24 to 48 hours from the moment you sign, and on some products transit damage is not covered by the manufacturer's warranty at all. The exact terms for this product are in the Shipping and Delivery section below.

That window is why we do two things rather than one.

What we send, and what the call covers

When your order ships, we send you a written inspection guide. How many boxes to expect, what it should look like coming off the truck, what to photograph, and what to note on the delivery receipt before you sign. A clean signature on a damaged shipment is what makes a claim hard to win, and you are entitled to refuse a damaged delivery, which is worth deciding before delivery day rather than with a driver waiting.

After it arrives, we call you. We schedule that call inside the reporting window rather than whenever is convenient, because once the window closes there is nothing left to do. It covers three things:

  1. That it arrived, and arrived intact. We go through what came off the truck and what you found when you checked it.
  2. Anything that did not. If there is damage, we take it from there. What to photograph, what to file, and we deal with the carrier.
  3. Who to contact for what. Warranty claims go directly to the manufacturer and we give you the name. Anything to do with delivery, freight, or damage in transit comes to us and we handle it.

Ten to fifteen minutes depending on what we find, included on every freight order. We schedule it, you do not have to chase us.

The Leisurecraft Granby Cabin is the smallest of the Leisurecraft cabins, and it is the one to buy if you want a real sauna building rather than a barrel, but do not have the yard or the budget for something larger.

It is a proper room — pitched roof, a door you walk through, benches along the back wall — at a fraction of the Georgian's footprint. That makes it quicker to heat, cheaper to run, and far easier to place. A 74-inch square will fit in a corner where a full cabin simply will not go.

It is built in Eastern White Cedar rather than the Western Red most outdoor saunas use. Eastern White runs cooler to the touch at the same air temperature, so the benches are comfortable to sit on bare. It carries a milder scent that doesn't overwhelm a small room at heat — which matters more here than in a large cabin. And it is naturally rot and insect resistant without treatment, so it will sit outdoors through a Minnesota winter without a maintenance ritual of its own.

Construction is the same as the rest of the range and does not get cheaper because the cabin is smaller: solid single-stave bevelled walls, dovetail corner joinery, a 28-gauge textured black metal roof made in Canada, and stainless hardware throughout. It arrives as a ready-to-assemble kit that a competent pair can put together over a weekend without specialist tools.

Electric only, and there is a good reason

The Granby is offered with an electric heater only. That is not a cost decision or a supply gap — it is a safety one. A wood-burning stove needs clearance for the firebox door to swing and room to load logs without reaching across hot steel, and this cabin is not big enough to give you that safely. The manufacturer does not offer a wood-fired Granby, and we would not sell one if they did.

If wood-fired heat is what you want, the Georgian Cabin takes it comfortably.

What's included

Every Granby ships as a complete, usable sauna rather than a shell with a shopping list attached:

  • The cabin, in Eastern White Cedar
  • A correctly sized electric heater, including the rocks and safety railing it needs to run properly
  • The flat floor heat shield that sits beneath the heater
  • A starter accessory set — bucket, ladle, thermometer and sand timer

You will need a licensed electrician for the circuit. Everything else is in the crate.

Electrical Requirement: This sauna requires a licensed electrician and a dedicated 240V, 40A circuit on 8-gauge wire. No GFCI breaker is required. These are the manufacturer's guidelines; your electrician makes the final call based on the run and local code.

Lead Time: Approximately two months from order. Leisurecraft cabins are built to order rather than pulled from stock, and we would rather tell you that now than after checkout.

Built your way — what this page doesn't show

The build above is the one we'd recommend, not the limit of what's possible. These saunas are made to order, one at a time, and the factory will build them to spec. What you see here is configured for the way most people actually use a sauna. It is a fraction of what can be done.

To give you a sense of the real range:

  • A different heater. We fit the Harvia KIP by default. The Homecraft Apex Mini, Revive and Revive Slim all suit a room this size, in several outputs, with WiFi or local touchpad control.
  • Roof and finish. Black metal as standard, or black asphalt shingle. Livos Alis penetrating oils in Light Teak, Black, Sesame or Bongossi.
  • Lighting and benches. Sauna lighting and SaunaGlo LED bars, alternative bench configurations, and an adjustable installation base in place of the flat floor plate.
  • Accessories. Upgraded Deluxe or Supreme accessory packages, cedar backrests, soapstones and sauna essences.

If the build you want isn't on this page, that usually means we can get it rather than that it doesn't exist. Send us a note through our contact form — tell us the model and what you'd change. We'll come back with options and real pricing, normally within one to two business days.

We are an authorized Leisurecraft dealer, and a custom build carries the same 5-year warranty as anything else on this page.

Leisurecraft Shipping & Return Policy

This is a made-to-order freight item, and the delivery works differently than a parcel shipment. The terms below are specific to Leisurecraft and replace our general shipping and returns policy. Please read this section before ordering.

  • Delivery included. Leisurecraft saunas are built to order rather than pulled from stock, and they are delivered by dedicated freight to a residential address rather than by parcel carrier. That delivery is included in the price you see, so there is no separate freight charge at checkout.
  • No additional freight charge within the continental USA. Alaska and Hawaii by quote.
  • Curbside or end-of-driveway delivery by an 18-wheeler. The trucking company will not back into a driveway and is not responsible for unloading.
  • Crate size: 72" long × 45" wide × 44" high, shipped on a pallet. This is the manufacturer's figure for the Granby specifically, not an estimate.
  • Liftgate delivery is available on this model. Crates over 84 inches ship without one, and the Granby is comfortably under that at 72 inches. Confirm it with us at order.
  • Inspect on arrival. Damage or missing-component claims must be filed within 30 days of receipt.
  • Lead time: approximately two months.

Leisurecraft saunas are built to order, so the cancellation and return terms are tighter than most of what we carry. Worth reading before you order.

  • 24-hour cancellation window. Orders can be cancelled within 24 hours of being placed. After that the build has entered production and cannot be cancelled.
  • No returns on Leisurecraft saunas under normal circumstances.
  • If a return is authorized, a 25% restocking fee applies, plus all freight costs back to the factory.
  • Arrived damaged? That is a freight claim, not a return, and must be reported within 30 days of receipt. Contact us and we will handle it with the manufacturer.

What people like

The product receives a generally positive reception, particularly for its ease of assembly and its perceived benefits for relaxation and personal wellness, with users reporting improvements in various health aspects and daily stress reduction. Many appreciate its performance, even in challenging cold weather conditions. However, some experienced sauna enthusiasts express reservations regarding its design, specifically citing the peaked roof and concerns about insulation and sealing, which they believe might hinder an optimal traditional sauna experience and heating efficiency.

Pros

  • Easy assembly: Many users find the assembly process straightforward and easy.
  • Promotes relaxation: Reviewers frequently mention its effectiveness as a de-stressor and for overall relaxation.
  • Health benefits: Users have reported improvements in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, better sleep, and healthier skin after regular use.
  • Good quality: The overall quality of the product is generally regarded as good by users.
  • Performs well in cold climates: Some users report successful operation even in very cold weather conditions.

Cons

  • Peaked roof design: The peaked roof is often criticized for allowing hot air and steam to rise above the users, potentially diminishing the traditional sauna experience.
  • Lack of insulation: The sauna kit is noted to lack insulation, which can lead to increased heat loss.
  • Unsealed plank joints: There are concerns that the plank joints are not sealed, potentially causing drafts and further heat loss.
  • Heater oversizing needed: Due to potential heat loss from design and insulation issues, a larger than standard heater might be required to compensate.
