Each answer card in 'My Preferences' displays two numbers on the right side as [## - ##]. Both numbers reflect how many items match your answer. The first is the database match - the number of matches in our entire sauna database. The second is the preferences match - how many items match the preferences you've provided so far. As you answer questions, the database match will vary; the preferences match will stay the same or go down. If the preferences match reaches 0 or if you just want to increase it, you can edit any prior preference. Click or tap anywhere on the card and that question will be presented so you can change your answer. When that answer is updated in 'My Preferences', the database and preference matches could both change. Additionally, both matches will be updated for each answer card after the one updated.

[details] => Our Sauna Matching Methodology Our sauna matching process is divided into two main parts - required criteria and optional features. The required criteria produces a base set of matching items based on whether you want an indoor, outdoor or portable sauna, your preferred size and the maximum amount you want to spend. This is where most guides stop. But there are many more options that can further narrow your search. For optional features, this guide presents each with an explanation. and where appropriate, the pros and cons of that feature. You can then indicate how important that feature is to you on a 5 point scale of 'Don't Want' to 'Must Have'. This covers features like heat type, steam, red light theraphy, infrared therapy, bluetooth and others. History We also provide a history that shows each answer you've provided as well as how many matches we found in our sauna database and how many match your preferences at each step.

[details] => Our Sauna Matching Methodology Our sauna matching process is divided into two main parts - required criteria and optional features. The required criteria produces a base set of matching items based on whether you want an indoor, outdoor or portable sauna, your preferred size and the maximum amount you want to spend. This is where most guides stop. But there are many more options that can further narrow your search. For optional features, this guide presents each with an explanation. and where appropriate, the pros and cons of that feature. You can then indicate how important that feature is to you on a 5 point scale of 'Don't Want' to 'Must Have'. This covers features like heat type, steam, red light theraphy, infrared therapy, bluetooth and others.

Each answer card in 'My Preferences' displays two numbers on the right side as [## - ##]. Both numbers reflect how many items match your answer. The first is the database match - the number of matches in our entire sauna database. The second is the preferences match - how many items match the preferences you've provided so far. As you answer questions, the database match will vary; the preferences match will stay the same or go down. If the preferences match reaches 0 or if you just want to increase it, you can edit any prior preference.

[details] => Our Sauna Matching Methodology Our sauna matching process is divided into two main parts - required criteria and optional features. The required criteria produces a base set of matching items based on whether you want an indoor, outdoor or portable sauna, your preferred size and the maximum amount you want to spend. This is where most guides stop. But there are many more options that can further narrow your search. For optional features, this guide presents each with an explanation. and where appropriate, the pros and cons of that feature. You can then indicate how important that feature is to you on a 5 point scale of 'Don't Want' to 'Must Have'. This covers features like heat type, steam, red light theraphy, infrared therapy, bluetooth and others. History We also provide a history that shows each answer you've provided as well as how many matches we found in our sauna database and how many match your preferences at each step. You can click any history answer to change it and see immediately how it affects your matches. ) [2] => Array ( [step] => 3 [dataMatchCol] => Where [promptType] => Multiple Choice [matchType] => EQ [dependency] => [display] => What type of sauna do you want?

[details] => Gas can be either propane or natural gas and some models allow either. Some provide direct heat like a fireplace insert while others heat a collection of lava rocks. Those that heat a collection of rocks provide the option of adding steam to your session by pouring water over the rocks. Electric is the most convenient and can be built into the structure or provided as a stand alone heater in either 120 or 240 volts. ) [10] => Array ( [step] => 10 [dataMatchCol] => Electric [promptType] => Option [matchType] => O [dependency] => [display] => Option: Electric heater [format] => [answers] => Array ( [0] => Don't Want [1] => Ambivalent [2] => Preferred [3] => Important [4] => Required ) [blurb] => if you want an electric heater, the next two questions will allow you to choose whether 240v or 120v.
