<p>The sauna has for ages been a central and revered place in Finnish life, a place of birth and death, life and celebration. The word “hiisi” is ancient Finnish for a holy place, a place of sacrifice or mystical power – the perfect family name for our sauna tents and accessories.</p><br>
<p>The Hiisi 2 is an updated design based on the old Hikimaja. The tent itself is basically a box with a sloped roof, no center pole. The corner poles are inserted into sleeves on the outside of the tent, making the interior a bit less crowded. The ceiling and wall materials are fire retardant for safety, not fire proof though so sparks and flames will burn holes in them so be careful.</p><br>
<p>The interior is large enough to fit one two person bench, two persons, and the stove. The stove is placed in the far right corner, as viewed from the entrance. The bench is placed on left hand wall, beneath the window. The window along the top edge of the bench wall provides some light and a chance to peek outside. The entrance is a simple zippered slit. A length of cord is attached to the ceiling seam of the back wall, this is an attachment point for a sauna thermometer to help you keep track of the temperature and not overheat the tent.</p><br>
<p>The tent, poles and stakes pack neatly into a carry bag for transport. Shoulder straps allow backpack like carry freeing up your hands for stoves or other accessories.</p><br>

<h3>NOTE!</h3><br>
<ol>
<li>The material of the tent window is as non-toxic as possible, and it has to meet extremely tough requirements for use both in extreme cold and hot temperatures.</li>
<li>As a side effect of this the material is also very sensitive to pigments.</li>
<li>Even the window of a new tent may have color spots or stripes absorbed from the tent wall fabric during storage and transportation.</li>
<li>This is not dangerous at all and is not a warranty issue.</li>
