Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    The product, in the report: At home steam sauna

    I turned my SaunaBox steam sauna on, less than 3 minutes later the water box was smoking. I barely touched the top of the lid (did not turn it, did not take it off) and it popped off and boiling water exploded all over my face. The water got all over my ceilings and walls as well. I was airlifted to [REDACTED] Hospital to their burn unit. I sustained 2nd degree burns to my face and right shoulder.
