Hukka Lyyli: a soapstone sauna elf in a bucket hat
The Hukka Lyyli is a small sauna elf carved from Finnish soapstone. It has a friendly smile and wears a bucket hat with a soft shape and a wide brim. It is the second shortest in the family, about two and a half inches tall, and weighs less than half a pound. Hukka carves it in Tuupovaara, Finland. Soapstone holds heat well and is used to build many sauna stoves, so this little elf is right at home in the sauna.
In Finnish folklore the sauna elf lives in the sauna and looks after the people who bathe there. Set Lyyli on top of the stones of your heater, electric or wood burning, and it keeps smiling through every session. It also works as a small massage stone. Let it warm on the stones, lift it off, and wait until it is comfortably warm to the touch. The hat’s wide brim is easy to grip as you roll the smooth head over your neck and shoulders. It comes as one solid piece with nothing to assemble. Lyyli is one of six Hukka elves, and they line up nicely along the top of the stones. Want the sporty one? See the Hukka Reiska sauna elf with a baseball hat. The Hukka Lyyli ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What is the bucket hat on Lyyli for?
Lyyli’s soft-brimmed bucket hat is her signature in the Hukka family, and the page gives it a job: use the bucket-shaped hat as a pressure point reliever and her smooth head as a gentle massager to ease muscle tension. The wide brim is an easy shape to grip. Heat her on the stones, then let her cool until comfortable on your forearm before using her on your neck or shoulders.
Will the elf crack or fade in the heat?
Soapstone is the stone Finnish heaters and stoves are built from, chosen for its high heat capacity and its ability to withstand harsh environments, so ordinary sauna heat is what Lyyli is made for; the page promises she keeps her delightful expression no matter how high the temperature gets. Avoid sudden shocks such as dropping her, and throw water on the stones as usual rather than directly onto the figure.
How big is Lyyli?
1.77 inches (45 mm) wide and 2.56 inches (65 mm) tall, weighing 0.44 pounds (0.2 kg). That makes her the second-shortest elf after Reiska, with the same footprint as the rest, so she tucks neatly between the stones of any residential heater without affecting how the stones are stacked or how air moves through them. She ships boxed as a single piece with nothing to assemble.
Where is Lyyli made?
In Tuupovaara, in Finnish North Karelia, from 100 percent authentic Finnish Carelian soapstone, as the Features tab states. Hukka Design carves the elves from natural stone with no chemicals added, so each one is a genuine piece of Finnish sauna culture rather than a resin figurine. Browse all six characters in our Hukka collection.
How many sauna elves are there?
Six on the page: Lyyli with her bucket hat, Jolle with a stacked cone hat, Elli with a handle hat, Tahvo with a cone hat, Reiska with a baseball hat and Sulo with a holiday hat. All are the same 0.44 pound Carelian soapstone and roughly 1.8 inches wide, ranging from 2.48 to 2.83 inches tall, so they line up as a family along the top of the heater stones.

A sauna turns your garden into a spa oasis. We debated it for a while, but after renovating our house, we pulled the trigger and bought a sauna from Norse Steam and Maya. She was always super responsive and helpful throughout the process. Don't kid yourself, getting a really nice sauna is not that easy. Sizing and heating need to be figured out, as does the building, but we have always had a helpful partner on our side. She never upsold us on anything we didn't need, and we got some nice freebies when the sauna was delivered. And now we can really enjoy every moment in our garden.
KF
I'm really happy with my sauna purchase. Maya gave above and beyond excellent customer service. She wasn't pushy and gave impressive followup after the delivery to make sure everything was just right.
DE
I enjoy my FD2 Sauna with Red Light, Infrared and radiant heat. Use it 5x a week and my post workout soreness is minimal and sleep great. Maya at Norse Steam was excellent to work with.
B
We purchased the 3-person sauna for our outdoor garden. We chose the cube sauna for the aesthetic and could not be happier.
I assembled by myself except for the 2 large panels (requires a few people). Instructions were good - took me two partial Saturdays to complete and a few hours to unpack and organize in advance of assembly. Had my elec. add a NEMA enclosure on the back for the controller and power for lights and a 2nd panel for the wireless control.
Customer service was excellent

Awesome Sauna and Awesome Company and Experience purchasing it from Maya!
After much research I chose the Finnmark FD-2 and it has met and exceeded all my expectations! Easy to assemble and it functions great - just as advertised. I highly recommend it for home use!
EA
Recently purchased the Finnmark one person after much research. Extremely happy with it and the ordering process. Maya was very responsive and helpful during the process and keeping us updated while we waited for shipment. There were several places I could have ordered this, but i chose Norse Steam based on the communication and customer service which was fantastic. The shipment was also excellent. The setup was pretty seamless for two people - but the best part is the sauna experience 10/10

Maya is amazing - super helpful and responsive. Looked at many stores, these guys have the best prices and service. Highly recommend
GR
Norse Steam, and specifically Maya, were extremely helpful as I was making the decision for our Sauna. I was able to get all of the necessary details to make a decision as construction was happening in my backyard to make space for it.
We absolutely love the CL7G. It is extremely comfortable for 6 people (can fit more less comfortably). The Thermory Spruce and Aspen in the interior smells great. The lighting is lovely. We paired the CL7G with the Harvia Spirit 10.5kw.

Had great experience shopping at Norse Steam for the new heater. They had very good deal, with rocks. Customer service was good, and responded very fast with my questions. Received the heater, and it looks good, and the quality seem to be great. Will install soon, and am very excited to start experiencing sauna the way it ment to be

Smoking Hot Tub!
I got the Norse Steam SaunaLife wood-fired hot tub, the S4N model, and its been seriously great. It heats up quicker than I expected, usually around an hour and a half, and once its hot, it stays that way for a good long while. The wood-fired system is simple to use, and honestly kind of fun.
The tub itself feels solid and well put together. The thermo-spruce exterior looks beautiful in person, and the fiberglass interior is smooth, deep, and easy to clean. Its the kind of setup that just works without a bunch of fuss, which I really appreciate.
Also, the team at Norse Steam was genuinely great to work with. Super helpful, quick to respond, and made the process really easy from start to finish. It felt like they actually cared that I was happy with it. The tub has totally become a go-to way to unwind, and I wouldnt change a thing.

Great Sauna & Purchase Experience
Great experience purchasing Finnmark FD-2 from Norse Steam. Good communication and easy to assemble. Temperature increases quickly (30 minutes or less to 140) and maintains well. So far this has been a great purchase.
M
Great sauna and great customer service
We purchased the Finnmark SD-1 sauna. Maya was extremely helpful with the purchase. We had an issue with the sauna not reaching the maximum temperature, and Maya connected us with the appropriate technician that explained how to correct the issue. The sauna now heats to the maximum temperature (170 degrees) in less than an hour, and it is a great unit. We are very happy with it, and we would definitely purchase from NorseSteam if we needed any other items.

Sauna Review
I recently purchased a sauna from Norse Steam, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, their customer service was exceptional, and Maya deserves special recognition for her outstanding support!
Maya was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, answering all my questions about the sauna features, installation process, and maintenance. She went above and beyond to ensure I selected the perfect model for my home. Even after the purchase, Maya followed up to make sure everything was running smoothly and that I was satisfied with my sauna.
The sauna itself is top-notch beautifully designed, durable, and easy to use. It's clear that Norse Steam takes pride in the quality of their products and their commitment to customer satisfaction.
If you're considering a sauna, I wholeheartedly recommend Norse Steam. With their excellent customer service and high-quality products, you're in great hands. Thank you, Maya, and the entire Norse Steam team for a fantastic experience!
