Phillips Lifestyles supports the buying and ownership experience with expert guidance, installation and maintenance services, and free in-home consultations.

Features and layout

The S-870 is designed for comfort in a smaller footprint. Its 52" x 52" size makes it an appealing option when space is limited, yet it still seats up to three people. The 5-sided design helps it fit neatly into more settings than a traditional square layout, making it especially attractive for homeowners who want sauna comfort without overcommitting valuable room area.

Inside and out, the sauna uses hemlock, giving it a clean, natural look that fits well in contemporary or traditional interiors. The in-backrest low-voltage lighting and color therapy system add a refined ambiance, while the Bluetooth sound system makes it easy to enjoy music or guided relaxation during a session. Those features create a calm, personalized environment that suits buyers who see a sauna as part of a broader wellness routine.

For buyers in Northern Michigan, that combination of compact size and everyday practicality matters. Whether the goal is to create a peaceful corner at home or add a shared wellness feature for family use, the S-870 offers a balanced mix of form, function, and comfort. It is also a good fit for households comparing sauna options against other home upgrades and looking for a model that feels substantial without requiring a large dedicated room.

The sizing also helps the S-870 work as a considered upgrade rather than a room-dominating installation. At 51-7/8" wide and 51-7/8" deep, it brings a true sauna footprint that can be easier to plan around than many larger wellness units. For families in and around Traverse City who want something more intentional than a basic add-on, the layout supports a dedicated relaxation zone without overcomplicating the project.

That practicality is part of the appeal for buyers comparing options across the wider region. Homeowners in Harrison, St. Helen, and Mio can look at the S-870 as a sauna that blends wellness features with everyday livability. Its compact proportions and 3-person capacity make it a strong candidate for households that want comfort, flexibility, and a clean finished look in one package.

Specifications

These details make the sauna especially practical for shoppers who want a premium feel without complex electrical planning. The standard-outlet requirement is a clear advantage for many homes, while the compact proportions help the S-870 work in more spaces than larger sauna builds. The height of 76-1/2 inches also supports a full sauna profile while keeping the overall footprint manageable.

Because the sauna uses hemlock for both the interior and exterior, the material story is simple and cohesive. That consistency gives the unit a refined visual presence, and it also aligns with buyers who prefer a unified look in a wellness room, basement setting, or finished flex space. Together with the seating for three, it offers a practical balance between private use and shared sessions.

Phillips Lifestyles support

Phillips Lifestyles is a long-standing Northern Michigan retailer with service offerings that include expert installation and maintenance, free in-home consultations, and personalized support by phone, email, or showroom visit.

The company also highlights showroom locations in Traverse City and Grawn, giving local buyers a place to explore product options with knowledgeable staff.

For readers near Traverse City and surrounding communities, this kind of support can simplify the path from research to installation. It is also helpful for shoppers comparing wellness products alongside fireplaces, hot tubs, or other home recreation items. If you are weighing where a sauna will fit best, Phillips Lifestyles’ consultation service can help with measuring, placement, and planning around the room you already have.

One more practical advantage is the availability of showroom-based guidance from a team that also offers services across product categories. That can matter when buyers want to compare a sauna with other comfort-focused additions and make sure the final choice matches the room, the routine, and the home’s layout. For many shoppers, it is reassuring to work with a retailer that can support the product after the sale, not just during selection.

A friendly local note: a trip near Wilson State Park or a visit to nearby Backus Creek State Game Area may be part of life in the region, but the real value here is at home—having a sauna that is ready when you are.
