Few things are more enjoyable than a steam or sauna and the Brits have something great on their hands with this one.  Beyond the physical and mental health benefits there are a small handful of companies in the world that have combined them into one.  The best we’ve found yet is Ideal with the Tris model.  The shower is incredible with 11 nozzles and 6 body jets on the side, flow control, foldable seat, and handheld spray.  The sauna matches it with built in hygrometer, 2 kilograms of volcanic stones, bucket and ladle made from Iroko wood, and digital time and temperature programming.  And then there is the steam room with an oil burner for aromatherapy, digital programming and the use of the shower to cool you off at the same time if needed.  Good god, we want one.  $20,000.
