[Select Saunas'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/select-club) products embrace traditional Nordic sauna craftsmanship and make it accessible to American homes. Such product lines really play into the growing trend of at-home wellness, which is both more convenient and cost-effective in the long term.

The Kenova can seat up to six people. It features the [Harvia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/redwood-outdoors) 8kW electric heater with an eight-hour delay start option.
