Was VERY skeptical about a portable sauna - now I'm a believer

I'll be honest, I almost didn't buy this. A portable steam sauna for home? Sounded gimmicky. But my gym membership was $60/month and I only went for the sauna anyway. Plugged this in, filled the boiler, and within 5 minutes I had real steam. My girlfriend walked in and said 'wait, you have a home sauna in the bedroom now?' Best purchase I've made all year. Already cancelled my gym membership for this portable sauna.

Cancelled my gym for this portable steam sauna

I was paying $55/month at a fancy gym and only used the sauna. My husband kept pointing out we were spending $660 a year on steam. Got this portable sauna for home and set it up in our bathroom. Same sweat, same relaxation, no driving to the gym, no sharing with strangers. We broke even in two months. Now I use my home sauna every single night while watching Netflix on my phone through the hand opening.

My roommate thought a sauna tent was insane. Now he wants one.

When I unboxed a portable sauna tent in our apartment my roommate literally said 'dude, what are you doing.' I set up the indoor sauna in the corner of my room. 20 minutes later I came out drenched in sweat feeling amazing. He tried the steam sauna the next day and now we have a schedule for who gets it when. He is ordering his own portable sauna next paycheck.

Lost 4 pounds my first week with this home sauna

I know it's mostly water weight but doing 30-minute portable sauna sessions 5 days a week has made a real difference. I sweat more than I do at the gym. Combined with a better diet I've dropped 12 pounds in 6 weeks. My boyfriend noticed my skin looks better too. The foot massage roller that comes with this steam sauna is a nice bonus. My little at-home sauna wellness retreat.

Wife thought I wasted money on a sauna tent. She uses it more than me.

My wife gave me THE look when this arrived. 'A portable sauna tent? Really?' Three days later SHE'S the one setting up the home sauna every night. Says her back pain is noticeably better after each steam sauna session. Our master bathroom is her little personal sauna spa now. She told her entire book club about it and two of them already ordered their own portable sauna for home.

This portable steam sauna saved me hundreds on spa visits

I was spending $40 per steam room session at a local spa. Going twice a week that's $320/month just to sit in steam. This at-home sauna paid for itself in less than two weeks. Same deep sweat, same detox feeling, but I can use my personal sauna at midnight in my pajamas if I want. My husband rolled his eyes when the portable sauna arrived. Now he asks me to set it up for him after yard work.

Told my entire running club about this portable sauna

I run marathons and recovery is everything. Mentioned this portable steam sauna at our running club meetup and three guys ordered one that night. Two more the next week. We were all paying for gym memberships just to use the sauna after long runs. Now we do 30-minute home sauna sessions right after training. Recovery times have improved across the board. Best portable sauna for home I have ever recommended.

My skin has never looked better since getting this home sauna

I started using this portable sauna for stress relief but the skin benefits caught me off guard. After two weeks of daily 20-minute steam sauna sessions my pores look smaller, my complexion is clearer, and my esthetician asked what I changed. I told her I bought a portable steam sauna for home and she was not even surprised - said steam is one of the best things for your skin. Should have gotten an at-home sauna years ago.

Takes a couple portable sauna sessions to get used to

First time in the steam sauna I lasted about 10 minutes before I had to get out. Felt like too much. But I kept at it and by the third session I was doing 25 minutes comfortably. Now I do 40-minute home sauna sessions after my gym workouts and my soreness the next day is dramatically less. The chair is basic but it does the job. Wish the instructions were a little clearer on the water levels but figured it out.

My doctor recommended I keep using this home sauna

I bought this portable sauna on impulse for relaxation. Mentioned it to my doctor at my annual checkup and she said steam sauna therapy is excellent for circulation, muscle tension, and stress relief. She actually encouraged me to keep using my home sauna regularly. Not many impulse purchases get a doctor's endorsement. I use it 4-5 times a week now and my husband says I am way less tense.

Post-workout recovery with a portable steam sauna is next level

I lift 5 days a week and my muscles used to be destroyed for 48 hours after leg day. Started doing 30-minute portable sauna sessions right after lifting and the difference is insane. DOMS is cut in half. I can actually walk normally the day after squats now. My gym buddy tried my home sauna and bought one that weekend. This steam sauna is the best recovery tool I own.

Portable sauna in a studio apartment - yes it fits

I live in a 400 sq ft studio in NYC and I was worried this indoor sauna would not fit. The sauna tent sets up in the corner by my bathroom and takes up barely any floor space. When I am done it folds flat and goes in the tote bag in my closet. My friend said 'only you would have a portable sauna in a studio apartment.' She tried the steam sauna and ordered her own for home the same night. Fits anywhere.

Everyone who tries this portable sauna ends up buying one

I have had six friends try my home sauna. Four of them ordered their own portable steam sauna within the week. The other two are waiting for payday. There is something about actually sitting in a real steam sauna at home that sells itself. You do not need to convince anyone. Just let them try the sauna tent. My apartment has become the unofficial wellness hangout. I do not even mind.

Portable sauna for home vs gym sauna - no contest

I did the math. Gym membership with sauna access: $720/year. This portable sauna: $124 one time. Even if it only lasts a year (it is built well, I think it will last much longer), I save $600. And I do not have to drive 20 minutes each way or sit next to a stranger who will not stop talking. Having an at-home sauna is worth it for the convenience alone. My wife agrees.

This portable steam sauna is my CrossFit recovery secret weapon

I do CrossFit 6 days a week and competition season was destroying me. Coach suggested more recovery work. Bought this home sauna and started doing 20-minute steam sauna sessions after every WOD. My mobility has improved, my muscle soreness is way down, and I PR'd my clean and jerk last week. Three guys from my box have already ordered their own portable sauna. This is the recovery tool nobody talks about.

My daughter got me this portable sauna and it changed my mornings

My daughter bought me this portable sauna for home because she heard saunas help with arthritis. I was skeptical but did not want to hurt her feelings. After a week of 15-minute morning sessions in my personal sauna, my hands are so much more flexible. My knees ache less walking down stairs. My doctor was impressed at my last visit. Best home sauna gift I have ever received. I told all my friends at the senior center.

Sleep quality went through the roof with this home sauna

I have struggled with insomnia for years. Tried melatonin, white noise machines, weighted blankets - nothing really worked consistently. Started doing a 20-minute portable sauna session an hour before bed. Out like a light. Every single night. My wife said I stopped tossing and turning. I do not know the science behind it but the steam sauna heat relaxes me in a way nothing else does. This at-home sauna is a game changer for sleep.

Fibromyalgia relief from this portable steam sauna

I have fibromyalgia and my husband bought me this portable sauna after reading that heat therapy can help with chronic pain. I was not optimistic - I have tried so many things. But after two weeks of daily 20-minute steam sauna sessions, my pain levels are noticeably lower. Not gone, but manageable. My physical therapist said to keep using the home sauna. This is not a cure but it is the best relief I have found at home.

Wish the portable sauna held heat a bit longer between refills

The steam is great and this sauna for home reaches full heat fast. My only minor complaint is the water tank runs dry after about 45 minutes if you are running it hot. I like long home sauna sessions so I have to add water once. Not a dealbreaker at all - I just step out, refill, and I am back in 5 minutes. For the price this portable steam sauna is incredible. My sore back has never felt better after sessions.

Rheumatoid arthritis relief from my own portable sauna

My rheumatologist recommended regular heat therapy. The clinic charges $75 per session and insurance does not cover it. I was going twice a week - $600/month. Bought this portable sauna for home and it has been a complete game changer. Same deep heat, same joint relief, fraction of the cost. My morning stiffness has improved dramatically since using this at-home steam sauna. It has paid for itself a hundred times over.

Retired and loving my daily sauna ritual

I used to go to the YMCA just for the sauna. After I retired I couldn't justify the membership anymore. My wife found this online and I thought it was a toy. It's not. Real steam, real sweat, real relaxation. I do 30 minutes every morning with my coffee afterward. It's become my favorite part of the day. My wife says I'm less grumpy. She's probably right.

No renovation, no plumbing, no problem

We looked into building a sauna in our basement. Quotes ranged from $3,000 to $8,000. My husband said 'let's try a portable one first.' I expected nothing. This thing heats up in minutes and the steam is thick and real. We use it three times a week in our bathroom. Saved us thousands. The fold-away design means it doesn't take up permanent space. Brilliant product.

Weight loss journey got so much easier

I've been trying to lose weight for a year. Added this to my routine - 30 minutes after dinner, 5 days a week. Between the sweating and the improved sleep quality, I've dropped 18 pounds in three months. I know it's not just the sauna but it's definitely contributing. My husband noticed my mood is better too. The relaxation after a session is something else.

Chair is basic but the sauna itself is incredible

Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the folding chair is pretty barebones. It works but I swapped it out for a small plastic stool from my garage that's more comfortable. The sauna tent itself though? Incredible. Full steam in under 5 minutes. I use it after every gym session and my recovery has improved noticeably. For the price I honestly can't complain about anything.

My yoga practice improved after adding steam sessions

I've been doing yoga for 10 years but my flexibility plateaued. Started doing 15-minute sauna sessions before my practice and the difference is remarkable. My muscles warm up faster, my stretches go deeper, and I'm hitting poses I couldn't before. My yoga instructor noticed and asked what changed. I told her about the home sauna and she looked it up on the spot.

Night shift nurse - this saves my body

Detox sauna sessions cleared up my skin

I've dealt with stubborn acne since college. Spent hundreds on skincare products. A friend suggested steam sessions for detoxing through sweat. Bought this, started doing 20 minutes every other day.

Great sauna, instructions could be clearer

The sauna itself is excellent. Real steam, heats up fast, good quality fabric. I took off one star because the instructions are a bit confusing on how to assemble the frame the first time. Took me about 15 minutes to figure it out but after that first time it takes under 3 minutes to set up. My sore muscles thank me after every session. Worth it even with the minor learning curve.

Couples sauna night is our new thing

My husband and I take turns doing sauna sessions on Friday nights. We call it 'spa night.' One person steams while the other makes tea. Then we switch. It's become this whole relaxation ritual. Way cheaper than going to a spa and way more relaxing than sitting on the couch. He was the skeptic when I ordered it. Now HE'S the one who reminds ME it's Friday.

Sore lower back finally has relief

I sit at a desk 8 hours a day and my lower back was killing me. Chiropractor helped but at $50 per visit it adds up fast. Started doing 25-minute steam sessions every evening and my back pain has decreased by at least 60%. The heat really loosens up those tight muscles. My wife says I'm not groaning every time I stand up anymore. That alone is worth the price.

Bought this for stress relief. Stayed for everything else.

I originally got this because my therapist suggested I find better ways to manage stress. The sauna sessions are incredibly calming. But the bonus benefits caught me off guard - better sleep, clearer skin, less muscle tension, and I've even lost a few pounds. My husband said I seem like a different person. I think he's right. This is the best thing I've done for myself in years.

Gym bro sauna at home is real

I was that guy hogging the gym sauna after every session. Other people would knock on the door and I'd have to cut my session short. Now I do 30+ minutes at home uninterrupted. No line, no sharing, no weird sauna etiquette. Just me, my steam, and a podcast. My gains recovery is better because I'm getting full sessions every time. Absolute no-brainer purchase.

Love it but keep your water nearby

This portable sauna is the real deal. You WILL sweat. A lot. My only advice is keep a big bottle of water right next to you because you lose a surprising amount of fluid. First time I didn't drink enough and felt lightheaded after. Now I hydrate before and during, and the sessions feel amazing. My joints feel so much looser afterward. Highly recommend for anyone with stiff muscles.

Construction worker's best friend

I work construction and by Friday my whole body is wrecked. Used to pop ibuprofen like candy. My wife found this and suggested I try steam instead of pills.

No plumbing no renovation just steam

I looked into converting my spare bathroom into a steam room. Contractor quoted $12,000. My girlfriend said 'just try a portable one first.' I was insulted. A tent? But here I am 3 months later using it 5 days a week and it's genuinely amazing. Same deep steam. Same sweat. No construction dust, no permits, no $12,000 bill.

Menopause symptoms actually improved

I know this sounds counterintuitive - why would heat help with hot flashes? But my naturopath suggested regular sauna sessions to help regulate my body temperature.

My husband has chronic back pain from an old injury. Bought this thinking it would help him. It did - he says the steam sessions make his back feel significantly better.

Solid sauna for the price. Exceeded expectations.

I expected a cheap gimmick for under $130. What I got was a legitimate steam sauna that heats up fast and produces real, thick steam. The fabric holds heat well and the boiler is surprisingly powerful at 1050W. My only nitpick is the remote control buttons are small but that's barely worth mentioning. For the price, this competes with saunas costing 3-4x more. My wife agrees - she's in it right now.

Wife said I was crazy. She just asked me to set it up for her.
