Overview The SaunaLife Model E6 is the entry point to the ERGO-Series outdoor barrel sauna lineup — and it sets the bar high. Made in Nordic Europe from full-length Thermo-Spruce staves that last up to 2x longer than cedar, it features a generous 6'5" interior height, ergonomically curved Thermo-Aspen benches, and a 5/16" tempered bronze glass door. Designed for 3 bathers with a 1-day, 2-person DIY installation, it's the ideal choice for homeowners who want premium Nordic craftsmanship without the footprint of a larger barrel.
