What a game changing product for the price. True 82 °C + temperature makes this great for your health I will Sauna then straight to the Pod Company cold tub.
I had been looking for a sauna for a while and took a chance on this one. It was a great choice it actually gets really hot up to 85 °C deg which is much better than a lot of other portable options. I don’t think you’ll find any other options that are better for the price. Would definitely recommend!

Saunas can help boost immune function by increasing body temperature, improving circulation, and promoting relaxation, which enhances white blood cell production and reduces stress.
Additionally, regular sauna use may support detoxification, respiratory health, and potentially lower the risk of colds and flu by stimulating immune system activity.
Cardiovascular Health:
A 2018 study (JAMA Internal Medicine) found that frequent sauna use (4–7 times per week at around 80 °C) was associated with a 60% lower risk of cardiovascular disease.
Heat Shock Proteins & Longevity:
Saunas trigger heat shock proteins (HSPs), which support cellular repair and longevity. Research published in Experimental Gerontology suggests that regular sauna use may help extend lifespan by mimicking some of the benefits of exercise.
Detoxification & Recovery:
Sweating helps eliminate toxins such as heavy metals. In addition, heat exposure can increase growth hormone levels by up to 140%, aiding muscle recovery (Growth Hormone & IGF Research).

Experience the full benefits of a real sauna anywhere with The Sauna Pod, the world’s first portable hot air sauna featuring our patented heating technology.

Design
Unlike steam saunas that often use cheap polyester materials (which can release toxic gases when heated), our sauna is designed to prioritize your health. Made with 100% natural black cotton inside and out, with cotton insulation between the layers.
You can expect the Sauna Pod to heat up to 85°C, unlike steam saunas that only reach about 40°C, which aren't even sufficient temperatures to unlock the scientific proven sauna health benefits. The Sauna Pod is the worlds first portable dry heat sauna able to reach these temperatures.
It's a hot air based system, heat is generated from our patent pending electric heater, think of it as a miniature version of a regular sauna stove. No steam or water is needed, providing genuine heat without the dampness.
It heats up to 85°C, unlike portable steam saunas that only reach about 45°C
Yes! It's made for indoor use, but also designed to be used outside. If you live in a colder climate (especially when below freezing) we recommend bringing your SaunaPod inside during that season. The same applies for rain, the outside material is waterproof but excessive rainfall or storms could damage it over time.
Operates with a standard UK plug.
The Sauna Pod will heat up to 85°C in 15-20 minutes.
It should only take about 5-10 minutes to set up your Sauna Pod, unlike other products on the market. Saunas costing thousands of dollars will take multiple hours to set up and often require specialist tools.
It is also just as simple to take down the SaunaPod as well, and a carry bag is included, so you can take it on adventures with you.
No, it won't.
The Sauna Pod uses 1500 watt per hour, which equates to £0.10 - £0.30 (depending on your electricity prices). This means each sauna session will cost you less than a pound.
The Sauna Pod makes as much noise as a small fan, it's energy efficient and very quiet.
Beyond the 100% natural cotton used for the majority of the Pod, the Sauna is also made up of the following material.
The Sauna Pod's compact design, standing at 170 cm, ensures even, consistent heat throughout the entire space. With our powerful heater there's no risk of uneven heat distribution or heat escaping from the top of the Pod. After the recommended 20 minute warm-up period, the temperature is consistent from top to bottom, providing a perfect experience every time.
Regular sauna use promotes intense sweating, which plays a crucial role in regulating body temperature and flushing out toxins, while also boosting circulation, reducing inflammation, supporting the immune system, and enhancing cardiovascular health. Additionally, the heat exposure stimulates the release of endorphins, helping to reduce stress, improve mood, and accelerate muscle recovery, making it an excellent practice for overall well-being and longevity.
See the sauna benefits section for a detailed breakdown
We recommend sessions to be 15-30 minutes. If you're a regular sauna user, you may be able to stay longer. It is unlikely that you'll experience more significant health benefits by staying inside for longer as your body will have cleared out the majority of harmful toxins inside the body through sweating within the first 10-15 min.
If you have a high sensitivity to heat, have a fever, have a condition that inhibits your ability to sweat or have a pacemaker or defibrillator- we don't recommend using our sauna.
An infrared sauna is a type of sauna that uses light to make heat. This type of sauna is sometimes called a far-infrared sauna. "Far" describes where the infrared waves fall on the light spectrum. A regular Finnish sauna uses electric conduction heat to warm the air, which in turn warms your body.
An infrared sauna heats your body directly without warming the air around you. Studies have shown that dry heat saunas are healthier for your body long term, and most longevity studies with proven health benefits are around Finnish/dry heat saunas with higher temperatures, which is why we choose this heating option for the SaunaPod.
Our patent pending heater uses resistance coils to generate heat. The current passing through these coils produces low-frequency electromagnetic fields (similar to other household appliances like hairdryers and electric stoves). It's impossible to get 0 EMF, but the SaunaPod heater is on the low end and would be classified as a Low-EMF appliance.
The red light in our Sauna Pod is a regular red LED strip that improves the ambiance during a session.
It is not red light therapy, which requires specific wavelengths to be effective (typically between 600 to 850 nm).
Regular red LED strips are not designed for therapeutic purposes.
The Sauna Pod features a PVC flooring material that is easy to wipe clean, ensuring effortless maintenance. The chair is constructed from a durable fabric that is also designed for easy cleaning. Additionally, the cotton fabric of the sauna itself is treated with a wax coating, making it liquid-repellent. This prevents the absorption of sweat and humidity, allowing for simple wipe-down cleaning.
We also recommend leaving the compartment door open after use so that the unit gets proper ventilation
No, the Sauna Pod heater is only available as part of the complete Sauna Pod system.
The heater is specifically designed to work with our 100% cotton Sauna Pod, ensuring the safest and most effective sauna experience. Most other sauna tents are made from polyester or nylon, which can release toxic chemicals at high temperatures. Using the heater outside of the Sauna Pod would also reduce its efficiency and overall performance.
To achieve the best results, we recommend the full Sauna Pod system, which is engineered for optimal heat distribution, safety, and durability.
A dry sauna generates heat by an electric heater or wooden stove. Unlike steam saunas, it has very low humidity.

Yes, a sauna can burn calories. As your heart rate is elevated during a sauna session the body will work hard to remain cool. You can burn between 100 - 200 calories an hour in the sauna.
Unlike common portable steam saunas that only reach 45°C, The Sauna Pod heats up to 85°C, delivering the deep, detoxifying warmth essential for true proven sauna health benefits.

I’ve used it 4-5 times so far and I’m not disappointed. I’m not sure whether it gets up to proper sauna heat, even when pre-heated for 20-30 minutes. Although, I do get a proper sweat on and do have that post-sauna feeling afterwards. I can see myself using it regularly and would recommend it.
Love it, much better than we were expected. We are using it every day and it’s great. The only suggestion I would give, it would be great if it had thermometer ( we bought one of external website). Other than that, perfect.
While the quality of the pod is excellent..it was difficult to put together as everything is so tight..the dry heat really feels like an authentic sauna.. but my house is relatively cold and even at 85 degrees I barely break a sweat..so I have lined the pod on the inside with heat retaining foil that I had leftover from my garage ceiling.. this definitely brings the temperature up..but it still takes 20 mins to start sweating..but I like it..
Sauna received Happy with how it works.
The sauna works great! Adhesive fairly quickly and regained temperature soon after unzipping to enter or exit. Definitely worth the price!
I found video install easy to follow. Unit is well made and larger than you would expect. Im 5’11” and there is plenty of “round” space, but I struggle with truly getting comfortable. I can sit in the chair, but I cant spread out, I can’t stand up. Temperatures are exceptional and maintenance easy.
I’ve used other steam saunas before and they would only get to 103 degrees and it wasn’t the heat I was expecting. My wife wouldn’t use them, my kids weren’t fans. Eventually I stopped using them because it just didn’t feel like I was getting any value out of them. After getting g the sauna Pod, although reluctant, I use it almost everyday, my wife and kids love it. It’s dry heat, so no more wondering am I actually sweating or is it the steam. Now we know, wow, we are sweating the toxins out. The red light is an added feature. I’m able to use my phone without it being soaked with steam and I can watch videos or listen to music inside of it. The temperature seems to top out around 160, but it’s hot enough to get a great sweat going and when I combine that with the cold plunge my body I refreshed and ready to start the day. There’s have been few days I’ve missed the sauna but when I do I don’t seem to sleep as well at night. For the price, the sauna pod has great value, it works, and if you’re looking for a great sweat you won’t be disappointed.
The Pod Sauna has been amazing. The dry heat is perfect and it holds heat perfectly. Great purchase and absolutely worth the investment.
It’s 10 outta 10! Have used it pretty much everyday since it arrived. Definitely worth it!
Love it! It’s the perfect size and heats up quick. Heats up in 15min and after a 15min session I’m a sweaty mess lol.
Love it! Easy to set up, heats up quickly, and provides a genuine sauna experience at home. I use it every day!
Works exactly as advertised. I've not measured the temperature with a thermometer, but it gets very hot inside. I'm absolutely drenched with sweat after a 20 minute session.
I love this been sauna shopping for a while no odd smells made of cotton gets up to temp, very easy set up.
I’ve been incredibly impressed with the sauna from this company. The build quality is top-notch, the heat is consistent, and the design makes every session both comfortable and relaxing. I’ve noticed real benefits from better recovery after workouts to improved sleep and reduced stress. The customer service team was also very helpful and made the whole process smooth. Overall, this sauna has been a great investment in my health and well-being, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to take their wellness routine to the next level.
“I absolutely love my sauna from The Pod Company! Their customer service is outstanding—when my red light stopped working right after I turned it on, they replaced it immediately without any hassle. I suggested adding a rubber mat for the bottom to enhance the experience, and I also made a few personal upgrades to customize it further. (Added a 1.5in rubber mat, wooden stool and wooden entry step, since mine sits up on a step) The sauna gets incredibly hot, leaving me completely drenched and satisfied after every session. Overall, I’m 100% thrilled with the quality and performance of this sauna!”
Just couldn't be happier with my purchase.. it gets seriously toasty in there for sure. What a great way to start my day.. jump in there first thing at 5a followed by my Peloton class and finish off by jumping in my cold immersion tub at a reasonable 50 degrees for 5 minutes... Leave my mancave around 7a ready to tackle what the day brings full of gratitude and appreciation for the opportunity to start my day this way... Just AWESOME!!!
Works great!! The material looks and feels tough and the heater did its job perfectly. Love that it’s a dry sauna instead of an infrared or steam (obviously the reason why I went with the Pod Company). The only minor issue has been that the LED magnetic strip stopped working (and it certainly doesn’t stay very well, even with the four plastic clips). I contacted the company and I’m sure it’ll be resolved quickly with a replacement. The important thing is that the sauna functions exactly as described and I look forward to many sessions, sweatin’ it out!
Update- The chair broke week 2. I still really like the quality of everything else but that is annoying. So far, so good! I really like the quality of the materials of the Sauna Pod and that is actually gets up to 180’. It takes about 20-30 minutes to hit +180 and I usually jump in at the end of my workout. The only minor gripe I have is when I get in the temp drops 5-10 degrees and it takes a while to get back up to temp. Trying to figure out how to get in more efficiently.
I love it. I wanted to work a social media deal out with you you guys
The pod it self feels like it’s high quality. The heater works fine and heats the pod quickly. My only issue was with the lights. The light strip has a couple clips and is supposed to attach to the frame via a combination of those clips and an adhered magnet. The magnet doesn’t work well to hold the light in place. I used about 10 zip ties to secure the light strip to the frame. For the price, adding $1 worth of clips to attach the light strip securely is not unreasonable.
Very convenient and hi-tech. Helps me achieve my health goals which is why I purchased! Recommended to family and friends!
Totally exceeded my expectations. Always preferred dry heat over steam, and this gives me the ability to have it at home (pictured by my home office desk). Great quality, hot temperatures, and compact. 11/10
It is everything I heard. Could not be happier. While the set up was not as easy as I thought, everything is operating smoothly. I have used it every night. I feel great!
This is what we have been looking and waiting and looking for!
Been about three weeks since I got mine and it’s a game changer as of now! As long as everything holds up, this thing makes me sweat a ton! Usually go about 30 mins and the last 5-10 minutes put you to the test mentally. Worth spending a little more than the ones I found on amazon IMO.
Get a really nice sweat from this!!! Love the easy set up and portability.
This sauna is amazing. I’ve had it for a few months now and both my wife and I use it a few times a week. With the temperature set to 175+ you will definitely sweat. I’ve noticed an improvement in sleep quality when using it frequently.
Lovvvvve how easy it was to set up and get steaming! Will be using daily!
The Pod is perfect for a garage. I let it warm up for 10 minutes, somewhere between 175-180, sprays some eucalyptus oil in there and jump in. Throw on a 30 minute podcast and get to sweating. By the time I’m done I have a pool of sweat on the ground. I hope out, use a towel and some natural cleaner spray and wipe up all the water. Hop on the pool or shower after and feel like a million bucks the rest of the night. Best investment in some time.
it was so easy to set up! it works really well — gets pretty hot and pretty quickly. it’s made recovery so easily accessible & has helped tremendously with my sleep. definitely worth every penny!
Great product. The first night I used it for 20 minutes at 150 degrees and I could tell a difference. I immediately felt better, more energetic, and less pain. I have used it every night since. I have worked up to 175 degrees at 25 minutes.
My fiancé and I love the Sauna Pod. We use it pretty much everyday. It has been a game changer for me when it comes to sleep. I do a 30 minutes session at night before going to bed and sleep like a baby.
This sauna is amazing!! It has improved my quality of life and sleep. So handy that I can break it out and bring it even on vacation with me. 10/10 and would recommend everyone to buy one of these!! So affordable and feels like a luxury item :)
I am amazed that it only takes 10-15 minutes to get fully sweat. Temp goes up to 185F. Great product and I keep recommending it to everybody I know.
I love my sauna pod!! After doing the sauna pod, I jump into my ice pod!! I highly recommend both items from the Pod Company!
I couldn’t be happier with my sauna from The Pod Company. From the very beginning, the experience has been outstanding — everything from the quality of the build to the effectiveness of the heat therapy is top notch. The design is sleek, modern, and incredibly well thought out. It looks amazing in my space and feels solidly built, unlike a lot of cheaper infrared units on the market. The heater warms quickly and delivers that deep, penetrating heat that makes you sweat hard and feel completely detoxed after each session. What really sets it apart is how easy and comfortable it is to use. The controls are intuitive, the temperature is consistent, and the craftsmanship shows in every detail. After just a few weeks of regular use, I’ve noticed real benefits: faster muscle recovery, better sleep, improved focus, and just an overall sense of well-being. On top of the product itself, the customer service is phenomenal. The team is responsive, professional, and genuinely cares about making sure you’re happy with your purchase. If you’re on the fence, don’t overthink it — this sauna is absolutely worth it. I can confidently say it’s one of the best investments I’ve made for my health and lifestyle.
This is my first time using the sauna. The price and the limited space I have in my home, this fits perfectly. I sat with 160 degrees for 15 min… then went to sit in the ice pod… I thought I was goin to feel claustrophobic in the sauna, and I didn’t feel that way. I’m so happy to add contrast therapy at a price I can afford. The sauna was pretty cool. First time ever using a sauna. There’s no comparison to report on. I’m happy with this purchase. Be careful with the poles. When I had to move the sauna to another part of my home and I had to take it apart and one of the poles broke where the connection meets to put a pole for the top. The company replaced it. Thank you.
This is a game changer! I have used other tent saunas and none of them get as hot as this one. I would recommend either place bottom on something insulated or you wont reach the 185°
The sauna works decently after a few modifications. Initially it smelled very strong of chemical offgassing, I am very sensitive and I had to run the unit about 10 times empty and wipe the inside down with essential oils before I could go inside it without getting a headache. The led light strip I had to remove, it doesn’t stay attached and the plastic casing was offgassing a strong smell. Now that I got it fixed up and aired out, it’s pretty decent. Heats up in 20 minutes and get a good sweat over a 30 min session . I had a $7,000 sauna previously but had to sell when I moved to a new place and this is a good unit for the price and portability. I wish they used less plastic on the heater as that’s where the smell was coming from and the floor material was offgassing as well, but for a first iteration it’s not bad.
AMAZING! I use it every day sometimes twice a day. Helps destress on top of countless other benefits.
