I go to the show every year.I went last year for a Sauna, I found a very mean person that yelled at me then I found a very nice person at Saunas Today Wow it was a great deal and I decided to purchase my Sauna from them. Now a year later I haven't received my Sauna and lost $1500.00 that they won't return. I also found a complaint site on Saunas Today and I guess I'm not the only person that got Scammed Big time. Guess I won't be going to the Garden Show this year.
