“A sauna for $350? No way.”
That’s what we thought too.
We’ve all been podcast-pilled into believing you need a $5,000 cedar box, 200°F, and an IV drip of electrolytes to get any health benefits.
So when a portable steam sauna shows up for under $400? It sounds too good to be true.
Does it actually work? Can it lower blood pressure? Will I even sweat?
We had the same doubts—so we analyzed these 4 important questions below. We looked at the data, including a user's sweat loss and heart rate after one session.... and this just might surprise you (you won't believe #4) ⬇
trusted by thousands of athletes
#1 Does it actually feel intense?
20 minutes in the saunabox:
Here's screenshots from a ~20min session (tracked by a Whoop) - as you can tell, this thing was no joke. It got his heart rate going... quick. Even after pausing and getting out, that max HR touched 172. So, can it get your heart rate up? I think it's fair to say "yes".
#2 Do you actually sweat?
1.8 pounds lost in ~20min
How much can you actually sweat in this thing? We did a weight test immediately before and immediately after drying off post-saunabox. After about 20min, nearly 2lb were lost. Note: this is mostly just water weight you lose - so needless to say, hydrating after is essential. This is not some cure-all fix for weight loss, but this just shows you can really sweat out a LOT after one session.
#3: Is it safe to use?
Third-Party Tested and Trusted
An obvious concern with any portable sauna is, "Am I sitting in a toxic plastic box?" - well, this material was third-party tested to comply with California Prop 65 (the strictest in the country) plus the RoHs standard (Europe's standard for hazardous chemicals) - both of which passed with flying colors. Not all brands can say this, so, you can feel confident in the saunabox quality.
#4: Is this backed by Science?
Steam vs. Dry Sauna: Show me medical studies.
We only hear podcasts talk about dry saunas, so can steam actually lead to health benefits? Well, this might shock you the most.
This study compared dry saunas vs. steam saunas, proving that wet saunas were actually MORE intense on the subjects than dry saunas.
But, if you think about it, it makes sense. Water conducts heat much more efficiently than air (think: a jacuzzi at 110°F vs. a dry desert at 110°F). This is why you can achieve similar benefits in a steam sauna at a way lower temperature because of how water conducts heat.
Don't believe me? I can't blame you - it shocked me too - you can read the article yourself.

Your personal wellness oasis, available anytime, anywhere.
Designed with your convenience and comfort in mind, this portable sauna delivers the full rejuvenating experience of a traditional sauna, revolutionized into a compact and easy-to-use package. It's relaxation, redefined.
The SAUNABOX heats up internally to over 130-140° F with a near 100% humidity. Because of how water conducts heat, the high humidity evokes similar physiological effects at a lower internal temperature as a dry sauna would at over 160°+. The condensed area and continuous flow of heat into the sauna without pause also helps to increase the level of heat. You can adjust heat level and duration settings directly on the SmartSteam unit and by remote control.
Every inch of this steam sauna has been thoughtfully crafted. The premium, insulating materials help to create a soothing, enveloping heat, while the durable fiberglass frame ensures that this sauna is your companion for the long haul.
Easy to set up and take down, this portable sauna is your wellness journey's most versatile companion and includes everything you need to set up your sauna.
Can be used both indoors and outdoors. If you leave it outdoors, we recommend having an appropriate cover such as a canopy, balcony, tarp, etc.

The Science
Click Below to Understand the Physiological Effects of Heat Therapy
Mechanism: Heat exposure raises your body’s core temperature as you enter the sauna, leading to an increase in sweat production. Benefits: Helps in cooling the body through sweating and prepares it for enhanced detoxification and relaxation.
Mechanism: Exposure to heat increases body temperature, triggering the sweating mechanism. Sweating helps the body expel toxins and waste products through the skin. Benefits: Regular sweating through heat therapy can support detoxification by aiding in the removal of heavy metals, chemicals, and metabolic waste products.
Mechanism: Heat therapy induces vasodilation, which is the widening of blood vessels. This process improves blood flow and circulation, allowing more oxygen and nutrients to reach tissues. Benefits: Enhanced blood flow supports muscle relaxation, accelerates the healing process, and can help reduce pain and stiffness in conditions like arthritis and muscle strains.
Mechanism: Heat helps to relax muscles by increasing blood flow to the affected area, which reduces muscle tension and spasm. It also promotes the elasticity of muscle fibers and connective tissues. Benefits: This relaxation effect can alleviate muscle pain, stiffness, and soreness, making heat therapy a valuable tool for recovery and pain management.
Mechanism: Heat therapy raises the body’s core temperature, which in turn increases the metabolic rate. This heightened metabolic activity supports various physiological processes, including calorie expenditure Benefits: A higher metabolic rate supports metabolic health and can contribute to improved energy levels and overall metabolic function.
Mechanism: Heat stimulates the release of endorphins, providing a natural mood boost and stress relief. Benefits: Enhances mental well-being, reduces stress levels, and contributes to a sense of relaxation and calm.
Mechanism: The warm, humid air in saunas can help open airways, loosen mucus, and improve breathing. Benefits: Can be beneficial for individuals with respiratory conditions like asthma or bronchitis by aiding in easier breathing and reducing congestion.
Mechanism: After exiting the sauna, the body begins to cool down as it returns to its normal temperature. Rehydration helps to restore fluid balance lost through sweating. Benefits: Cooling down helps signal to your body that it’s time to wind down, which can promote better sleep. A lowered core temperature after a sauna session can align with your body’s natural sleep rhythm, leading to more restful sleep. Proper rehydration also supports overall recovery and maintains hydration levels essential for a good night’s rest.
