Do you like the idea of a home sauna? The stress-relieving dry heat! Which cleanses toxins from your body! Which helps you sweat away the pounds! But dread the thought of actually having to sit in that redwood box for hours, staring at nothing but the coals burning in the corner?
Well, you're in luck: A new generation of indoor saunas now come fully equipped (or should we say, tricked out?) with multimedia perks. For example, there's Cal Heat's Entertainment Sauna CU800. Aside from its standard luxurious Aspen wood paneling, dual windows, a full-length French door, and an 8-kilowatt, 240-volt heater, the unit contains an anti-fog and anti-glare 17" LCD flat panel TV, DVD/CD player, and Sirius Satellite Radio-ready AM/FM stereo. Measuring seven feet high, wide, and deep, it has enough room to fit you and three lucky friends. $6,700. Cal Spas; 800-225-7727, calspas.com. —Lisa Quintela, Associate Editor

Hi! Has the editor of this advertisement ever been to a real sauna? Where does she get the concept of sitting for hours in a DRY sauna from?
Maybe the idea of this story is just to promote the product with the TV. If that is the case, I apologize for getting upset about your misinterpreting the joys of a real sauna.
