Ehta experiences

A shore sauna without a building permit – the easiest project ever

The Jämsänen couple's easiest building project took place last spring. A sauna cabin appeared on their lakeside plot completely finished – even painted. And no building permit was needed to start using it.

What we're praised for most often

  • Delivery as agreed. The building arrives on the agreed day, sometimes even ahead of schedule, and many take their first sauna the very evening it's delivered.
  • Changes to the standard model. The positions of windows and doors, the width of the sauna benches, an extra log course or converting the sauna into a guest house are all possible, and the designer often suggests a better solution.
  • Service. Questions are answered quickly, and the sales approach doesn't feel pushy.
  • The löyly. The löyly is the most common thing praised in written reviews: about a third mention it. Recurring words are ”oxygen-rich”, ”moist” and ”soft”, and many praise the flow of replacement air from the floor edges.
  • Quality and price. Sturdy logs, wide sauna benches and open pricing: prices are on show, and you don't have to guess the total price.

What we get criticised for

  • Small shortcomings in the delivery. For example, missing parts, spots dented in transit or slips in the finishing. According to customers, these are usually put right quickly, but in individual cases the repair has taken a long time or the compensation has been small.
  • Transport arrangements. The exact delivery day has sometimes only become clear a few days beforehand, and the width of the access route to the plot should have been confirmed earlier.
  • Choosing the size. A few customers would now buy a model one size larger.

Based on the feedback, we have, among other things, clarified our guidance on the access route.

All experiences

Dealing with Ehta has been easy and flexible from the very beginning. We first contacted Ehta in July 2025, when we received a preliminary plan for our cottage. However, the idea was left to simmer and we continued planning about half a year later. The project has therefore progressed at our own pace, which has been particularly important to us. We refined the plan to our liking several times with Johanna, and when we finally got it finished, the rest of the project progressed very quickly and smoothly. At this stage, our contact person was Mirjami, and she kindly answered our questions and kept us up to date on the various stages of the project. Our wishes were still wonderfully taken into account, and we were able to make last-minute changes to, for example, the electrical plan.The delivery time estimate given at the beginning of the project was spot on. We had prepared the foundations in accordance with Ehta's good instructions. On the day of delivery, our driveway turned out to be a little too cramped for the transport company, so this is something to bear in mind when planning the lorry's route into the yard. It is therefore a good idea to add some extra leeway to the given dimensions. Despite everything, the skilled personnel got the cottage into place without any problems and carried out the final installations.All in all, the entire customer experience with Ehta has been very good, worthy of five stars. Now we have the loft cabin of our dreams and space for the whole family! Special thanks to Johanna and Mirjami, who have patiently always taken our suggested changes into account and realistically told us if something wasn't possible. Thanks also to everyone at the factory who has been making this dream of ours a reality! The quality of the workmanship is brilliant!

Ordering and delivery went very well. There were issues with the surface finishes, and the compensation we received for them did not make up for the trouble.
