Why Big Green Eggs are the Best Kamodo Grill

Thursday, May 7th, 2020

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

Consumer Reports recently reviewed Kamado Grills, and wrote that there are some others that might be able to compete with the original ceramic cooker – the Big Green Egg.

We, at The Spa and Sauna Company family of stores, would like to take this opportunity to explain why we believe that Big Green Egg – the only Kamado Grill we carry – is still the best one out there.

What Consumer Reports Has to Say

Here’s a direct excerpt from Consumer Reports review:

“When Consumer Reports first worked with the Big Green Egg in 2017, we were impressed by its ability to sear a steak at over 1,000° F and then, with just a few minor adjustments, maintain a low, steady 200° F flame for hours to turn out succulent ribs.

With that kind of performance, we determined that the Big Green Egg really might be worthy of its devout following, even with a $1,100 price. At the time, the egg-shaped ceramic charcoal grill was the only one of its kind. But it’s facing some increasingly serious competition. Look-alikes have popped up at major retailers, some with prices as low as $300.”

Big Green Eggs Provide The Ultimate Cooking Experience – and Cooking Versatility

Big Green Eggs can roast, bake, grill, and smoke almost any food you could imagine. You can make anything from tradition BBQ fare, to appetizers, to desserts on a Big Green Egg. They also heat up very quickly and are simple enough to use that everyone – from novice grillers to experts – enjoys using them.

Warranty and Lifetime of Product

Big Green Eggs come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty. Read full warranty details here.

Here at The Spa and Sauna Company, we have seen Big Green Eggs that haven’t only surpassed the Lifetime Guarantee, they have been passed down to family members, through generations.

Quality and Customer Service

Created by Ed Fisher in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1974, the Big Green Egg, was inspired by the domed clay cookers that have been used for thousands of years. After decades of perfecting his Big Green Egg, the ceramic cookers are available internationally.  Big Green Egg is now the world’s largest producer and distributor of the ceramic cooking system.

Limited Availability/Exclusivity

Big Green Eggs are only available from Authorized Dealers, including The Spa and Sauna family of stores. They can’t be purchased from Hardware stores or big box stores. For this reason, look-alikes have sprouted up from other vendors.

Big Green Egg Community

Have you joined the EggHead community? There is a large international community of Big Green Egg enthusiasts on social media that posts under hashtags, including but not limited to #biggreenegglife #biggreeneggnation and #biggreenegg. Check some of those hashtags out for recipe inspiration and more cooking tips. For some of our favorite Big Green Egg recipes, click here .

In Conclusion

While there may be other Kamado Grills similar to the Big Green Egg, we think the Big Green Egg stands out from the crowd, due to its Cooking Versatility, Warranty, Exclusivity and Community.

Big Green Eggs are available in multiple sizes starting around $699 (depending on size) for the Egg plus Accessory Packages that include nests, fire starters, ash tools and charcoal. Ready to invest in the Ultimate Cooking Experience? Request a free, no-obligation quote here.

Not Traveling? Try Taking a “Stay at Home” Spa Vacation in Your Own Backyard, Hot Tubs Reno, San Jose, Santa Cruz

Monday, April 27th, 2020

There’s an awful lot to love about having a hot tub – especially when you’re spending more time at home than ever before.

Here’s how to staycation at home with an amazing hot tub, and three of the benefits to expect from a quiet dip.

Ease Stress and Calm the Mind
With everyone home, the hectic schedules only seems to multiply, making it challenging to get a good night’s sleep. But with a hot tub at home, it’s easy to feel calm for a deep, restful sleep. About an hour before retiring, taking a quiet soak to allow the mind to make the transition from feeling stressed, to calm.

Soothe Muscles and Joint Pain
Deep relaxation is almost impossible in the presence of pain. Luckily, a dip in the hot tub can decrease pain. As heat, buoyancy, and massage work together, they target even the most nagging pain where it generates. Almost instantly, elevated heat eliminates pain, while the water’s buoyancy supports and cushions injured, sore muscles and joints.

Create a Healthy Habit That Sticks
When used on a regular basis, a hot tub delivers substantial health benefits. With improved cardiovascular functioning, decreased stress, and easy pain management, getting a restful night’s sleep is far easier. A key part of a healthy lifestyle, soaking in a hot tub on a regular basis, is a smart way to look and feel you your best.

So Go Ahead, Take a Soak, You Deserve It!
It’s fast, fun and relaxing. Not only that, it’s good for the body, soothes the mind and can improve your overall health and well-being.

Social Distancing and Reconnecting – in your Hot Tub!

Friday, April 24th, 2020

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

Anyone else notice that social-distancing, and sheltering-in-place, has you feeling more connected to others, both in and out of the hot tub?

Maybe, a little extra time thinking about loved ones has you reconnecting virtually with those far-flung friends and relatives, and sharing a few more quiet moments with immediate family, too.

How to Relax in a Hot Tub

While you’re home, during these ever-changing and uncertain times, it’s easy to get stressed out by following the latest news feeds.

We, at The Spa and Sauna Company family of stores, highly recommend you put the phone down for a moment, swab it down with a disinfectant, and then go take a relaxing soak in your hot tub or swim spa. A sweat session in your sauna would also work.

Benefits of Heat Therapy

Heat therapy has been proven to reduce stress, improve sleep and increase your overall wellness, by allowing time for self-reflection and unplugged family time, all while reducing aches and pains.

How to Reach Us for a Hot Tub

If you don’t yet have your hot tub, swim spa or sauna and you’re in the Reno-Tahoe area or the South Bay area, we are still here for you. We are encouraging screen-to-screen presentations, phone consultations, web chats, emails, and virtual backyard consultations.

How to Reach Us for Hot Tub Supplies

And if you do have a hot tub, our e-store and autoship programs are available, as well as hot tub delivery and service.

Reminder: Properly disinfected hot tubs, swim spas and saunas are still perfectly safe to use during this time, and always.

So give yourself a break, stay healthy, stay calm and stay in your hot tub!

Staycation in Your Hot Tub

Friday, April 17th, 2020

By Laura Varnon, Marketing Coordinator

Looking for a get-away, but still want to stay home? Consider a hot tub in your own backyard. Staycations are back and with new hot tub models, better than ever!

Thousands of people in the Reno/Tahoe and South Bay already have hot tubs from The Spa and Sauna Company family of stores in their backyard. They are already enjoying frequent staycations and daily soaks in their hot tubs.

If you’re planning a staycation, or were planning a vacation that has become a staycation, make your home a better place to stay – with your own relaxation destination.

Benefits of a Staycation

  • You don’t need to be in a crowd.
  • You can take a staycation alone or with family.

Sometimes a vacation where you can really spend some time on self-care alone or with those you love, is the most relaxing vacation of all.

  • Hot tubbing relives stress.

Life gets stressful sometimes. Melt that stress away with a 20-minute soak in your hot tub. Bonus: No phones or electronic devices allowed (which means no distractions, no news, and no emails or texts)!

  • Lower cost – with no airplane tickets or hotel reservations, you can spend on what matters most to you.

Activities such as home improvements, yard work/gardening, and family time – and of course, hot tubbing – are wonderful ways to take a break from it all, without actually going anywhere. You will feel refreshed when you return to your normal, daily routine.

Benefits of a Hot Tub

Hot tubs provide various wellness benefits.

  • A relaxed body is a healthier body and more resistant to illness.
  • Committing 20 minutes a day to a hot tub soak is an investment in your health. People who are willing to invest in their own health, generally are in better health.
  • Hot tubs improve your sleep.
  • Hot tubs ease muscle aches and pain.
  • Hot tubs give you the opportunity to spend unplugged family time with those who matter most to you.

How to Get Your Hot Tub (without coming in the showroom)

Improve Quality of Life with a Backyard Spa, Hot Tubs Palo Alto

Monday, March 30th, 2020

A healthy, happy quality of life is about managing stress and chronic pain, and feeling positive about the friends and family that add value to your everyday.

Here are three easy ways you can make the most of everyday with a soothing hot tub at home.

A Convenient Space to Unplug
Today’s world is filled with distractions. Sometimes, it’s just time for a well-deserved break. A hot tub offers a unique opportunity to take this break, and from the comfort of home. With warm, massaging water and a quiet environment, your hot tub is the relaxation oasis you need to unplug.

On-Demand Indulgence
You’re not alone or unusual if there are times when you just need a little pampering. Soaking in hot, massaging water works wonders on the body, easing and soothing aches and pains and stiff joints. A lavish spa experience from home, your hot tub is waiting—no travel or appointment necessary.

Reconnect With Family
Whether you live alone or as part of a large family, finding quality time to spend connecting with loved ones isn’t always easy. A hot tub at home creates the perfect way to gather the family for conversation and laughter, while unwinding with personal massage.

So Go Ahead, Take a Soak, You Deserve It!
It’s fast, fun and relaxing. Not only that, it’s good for the body, soothes the mind and can improve your overall health and well-being.

To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a hot tub to help improve their overall health and well-being, The Spa and Sauna Company and Hot Spring Spas of Santa Cruz and San Jose are providing free test soaks at all their showrooms. We do recommend, however, that people wanting to schedule their free 30-minute soak call us ahead of time to reserve their spot.

Lap Pools are Perfect for Aquatic Therapy, Swim Spas Palo Alto

Monday, March 30th, 2020

Aquatic therapy promotes health and fitness, and is a convenient way to look and feel your best. If chronic pain, injury or stress limits your happiness, water therapy can help. Where do you begin?

Here are three ways to use a swim spa at home for easy aquatic therapy.

The Natural Buoyancy of Water
One of the reasons why it feels good to submerge the body in water is buoyancy. The feeling of weightlessness you get once in water helps relieve joint pain by removing pressure and strain of body weight. With regular use, the swim spa can help restore flexibility and range of motion.

Low Impact Exercise in Water
In addition to traditional lap swimming, modern swim spas can be equipped with a variety of exercise accessories to promote physical fitness. Movement in water relies on the natural resistance of the body, and is a practical way to achieve maximum results in a safe, low impact environment.

Soak for Relaxation and Stress Relief
The best swim spas provide two amazing experiences in one: lap swimming, and a hot tub spa. When aches and pains disrupt happiness, soaking in the hot tub portion of the swim spa can rejuvenate and regenerate a tired, stiff body.

So Go Ahead, Take a Swim, You Deserve It!
It’s, fast, fun and relaxing. Not only that, it’s good for the body, soothes the mind and can improve your overall health and well-being.

To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a swim spa to help improve their overall health and well-being, The Spa and Sauna Company is providing free swim spa test soaks at all their showrooms. We do recommend, however, that people wanting to schedule their free 30-minute test call us ahead of time to reserve their spot.

Improve Your Health with an Indoor Sauna, Infrared Saunas Reno

Monday, March 30th, 2020

Great news! It’s never been easier to make significant and meaningful changes to health from the comfort of home. How? Lounging in the sauna!

No, it’s not a trick; here are three smart ways to dramatically improve your health with an indoor sauna.

Enjoy Anytime Relaxation
Do you feel the effects of anxiety and stress even after your workday ends? A sauna at home can do wonders for helping relieve stiff, achy muscles and joints. With intense, sustained heat, the sauna promotes deep relaxation, so you can more effectively target specific areas of the body that become painful and stiff due to stress.

Improve the Quality of Sleep
Millions of people battle with sleep, leaving them groggy and unfocused. Sauna bathing on a regular basis can help the body and mind relax prior to going to bed, making it easier to drift off peacefully. With the body relaxed, sleep not only comes faster, but lasts longer too.

Boost Your Mood
The link between physical and mental health is real. Regular sauna bathing stimulates a healthy body, but rejuvenates the soul too, minimizing depression, curbing anxiety and helping you live your best life.

So Go Ahead, Soak in a Sauna, You Deserve It!
It’s fast, fun and relaxing. Not only that, it’s good for the body, soothes the mind and can improve your overall health and well-being.

To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a sauna to help improve their overall health and well-being, The Spa and Sauna Company is providing free tests at all their showrooms.
