OT: Saunas

[Deepster]

Does anyone have any experience with any of these portable home saunas? I'm looking for something under $1,000 and 1-2 people tops. Thanks in advance.

Really? I can name a pizza place at the North Pole and someone has an opinion and not a single person has a sauna?

We have a Sunlighten mPulse 2 person sauna but it’s not portable and was $5k (20th anny present for the Queen in lieu of jewelry). We love it! Use it often.

I’m a Finn. 165 is too cold to get in, and that’s the max. Not White Death approved. If you want a real sauna, it has to be a wood stove. There are tricks to keep costs down, but the lumber just isn’t cheap nowadays.

To get the real benefits, you need to be in there from 175-200. That’s when you feel your eyes stinging from the nitrates in the lunch meat you’ve eaten, and you sleep like a baby after the detox.

Fun little winter war fact: Part of the Finnish strategy to keep troops healthy snd morale up - was to build portable saunas and bring them up near the front lines.

That's hilarious.

It doesn't matter how much your sauna costs, it's not a real sauna unless there is an old naked guy in there with you. There's something about an old naked guy within a foot of you that really gets the toxins moving. Really recommend shelling out the dough for a quality old naked dude, if you can afford it.

Just buy an old naked guy instead.

Dammit, Jaydumo beat me to it.

I have a Finlandia sauna, for 3-5 people depending on size. It came with the house and I rarely use it, mostly because I forget it’s there. Temperature has gone up to 180-190, depending on where you are sitting in the sauna.

Pellet stove is much easier.
