Meaning "Forest" in Finnish, Metsä is a simple and meaningful design by Tong Ren. “It is peaceful, but full of textures,” Tong says of nature. Even when looking at the same tree each time he walks in Lammassaari, Helsinki, new ideas can be sparked. "It's always important for me to think about how tiny I am compared with nature," he told Lapuan Kankurit. Bring the beauty of trees into your sauna with this bench cover. Made in Finland, the quality is unbeatable; Lapuan Kankurit has in the preeminent Masters of Linen seal. The 100% washed linen will add soft comfort, wick moisture, and dry quickly.

All linen, pleasant color, comfortable
November 10, 2021
I am a fan of all linen fabric, particularly for something like a sauna. I wish there were more such products here. A search for "100% linen" turns up lots of matches on "linen" without the "100%".

The covers are nice and thin, so relatively little insulation. Also little cushioning, so the cover is not a substitute for a pillow if you don't like a hard surface. Linen is naturally somewhat wrinkly. The covers wash well, but it was a mistake to tumble dry. Even with cool air, the tumble dry wrinkled to the point of shrinking the size quite noticeably. An easy ironing fixed it, and after the second wash I just laid them out on the sauna bench to dry. That works very well, as thin linen dries quickly.

When these are available again, I will get two more so that two are in use while two are in the wash. If there were other 100% linen items, I would have liked some variety in pattern and color.

I would like to follow these instructions: 'To add products to this list, click the "Add to My Save for Later" button on item pages while shopping our site.' But there is no such button.
Pros
  • All linen, and thin loose weave, which is great for airiness and efficient drying. Lovely color and print. Washes well.
Cons
  • Wrinkly and very little cushion. Those are not cons for me, but warnings for those who prefer a crisper look and/or some pillowing. If I want a cushion some time, I would prefer to add it on top of the cover, rather than have a thick bench cover.
