9 Best At-Home Infrared Saunas for Every Space and Budget

While sitting in an infrared sauna tent may look a little silly, it’s a great way to reap the benefits when you don’t have a ton of space. We love the HeatWave Rejuvenator Portable Sauna because you can set it up anywhere you want, then fold it up after you’re finished getting your sweat on (not to mention: it only takes 1 minute to put it together). It also features a camping-style foldable chair that is super comfortable, so you can feel supported while you sweat, and a foot pad to keep your soles comfy, too. Your head pops out of the top, and there are slots for your hands that allow you to read or watch a TV show while zipped up inside. Or, you can simply close your eyes, relax, and enjoy the feel-good heat.

As far as specs are concerned, the portable at-home sauna has a maximum temperature of 150° Fahrenheit, so it’s not too hot compared to other options and is an excellent model for beginners. This portable sauna also comes with lots of customization with a handheld remote featuring six different timer options and sweat settings, so you can choose one that works best for you. The sauna also has a one-year warranty, so if something goes wrong, you can rest assured your investment is protected.

It’s no secret that at-home saunas can run a high price tag. If you’re on a budget and want to give a portable sauna a try without breaking the bank, the SereneLife Infrared Home Spa is like having a personal spa wherever you go—and it’s under $200. This affordable sauna comes with a foldable chair so you can sit and relax while being surrounded by heat, and there’s a wired remote to let you adjust the temperature up to 140° Fahrenheit and time up to 60 minutes.

The sauna comes in three different color styles, too, including black with blue trim, solid gray, and silver with blue trim. And it’s available on Amazon, so it ships for free with Prime shipping and often goes on sale, too. Customers rave about this portable sauna for its functional design, high value, and all of the leg room. They also love how, once you’re done using it, you can easily collapse and fold it down for space-saving storage.

The full spectrum infrared heat penetrates, energizes, and helps increases blood flow all at once, and there’s a removable bench so you lay down.

For something even cheaper, a sauna blanket can give you the same benefits as a portable sauna tent — and some are a fraction of the cost. With a $139 price tag, the Vanella Sauna Blanket is considerably less expensive than most standing saunas and sauna blankets. We love it because it has seven layers that conduct and preserve heat, so you can get your sweat on without worrying about the rising temperatures leaking out the top. The sauna blanket also has a security protection switch, which ensures the blanket will automatically turn off if there’s a circuit problem, so you can sweat without the stress.

This sauna blanket also comes with an adjustable temperature gauge that allows you to toggle between 86° and 176° Fahrenheit — which is much higher than some of its more expensive counterparts — as well as a time setting from 15 to 60 minutes, making it ideal to slip into after a long day of work or challenging at-home workout. Unfold it onto your bed, plug it in, and let your stress just melt away.

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to pay big bucks to get a stand-up infrared sauna for your house. The SereneLife Portable 1-Person Sauna ticks off all of the boxes in terms of size and function without breaking the bank. We love this portable sauna because you can easily set it up and step inside to enjoy up to 60 minutes of 140° Fahrenheit infrared heat. The budget-friendly home sauna also comes with a built-in warming pad for the feet, too, so you can get nice and cozy from head to toe.

This 1-person sauna also features a 1,300-watt high-power heating element, which creates more efficient heating and allows the device to warm up fast. Similar to other styles on our list, it has a remote controller that allows you to customize the heat and time settings to your preference. And, while you can technically stand up in it, it also comes with a sauna chair that folds down for easy storage.

If space isn’t an issue in your home, this 3-person sauna gives you a lot of room to relax by yourself or with a friend or two. The sauna features nine energy-efficient FAR infrared heating panels that evenly distribute the heat, bringing a professional sauna experience into your home. This Dynamic sauna is specifically designed with recovery in mind, as the infrared warms the body’s core temperature and promotes detoxification while promoting glowing skin, improved blood circulation, less joint pain, and faster muscle recovery.

The sauna is also pretty to look at, as it’s made from reforested Canadian Hemlock wood, and the door features a tempered glass panel to give you privacy. For added therapeutic benefits, the luxe at-home sauna features chromo therapy lights, which utilize the science of color and how the color relates to (and addresses) different physical symptoms (plus, it looks really cool).

We also love this salon-worthy sauna because it has full-spectrum color therapy, allowing you to utilize the science of color to address certain physical symptoms, including skin concerns and stress.

The Solo System has everything you could want in an at-home infrared sauna. While it takes up far less space than a traditional walk-in infrared sauna (and can easily be taken apart and stored), you still get the exact same experience… but better. All three parts—the upper dome, lower dome, and pad—heat up individually, allowing you to choose different temperatures for different areas. It also has a sustainable bamboo fiber exterior (which is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and naturally deodorizing), an ergonomic design, a comfy plush memory foam pad to lie on, and nine different heat settings.

Aside from the comfort of the heat surrounding your body, it also has built-in chromotherapy lighting. You can choose from multiple different colors, which can be incredibly therapeutic, helping your body calm on a deeper level.

HigherDose began as a luxe, private infrared studio in New York City, but is now dedicated to bringing that salon-worthy sweat experience to the comfort of your home with the coveted HigherDose Infrared Sauna Blanket. Loved by celebrities such as Selena Gomez, Gwyneth Paltrow, Bethenny Frankel, and more, the HigherDose Sauna Blanket is a must for those who want the benefits of a full-sized sauna without worrying about it taking up too much space.

This blanket utilizes far infrared rays (aka, light waves) that help heat your body’s core temperature to support detoxification, pain relief, and muscle recovery. It also features layers of charcoal, crystals, clay, and a magnetic layer to draw out impurities, balance the heat, improve blood flow and circulation, and fight free radicals while grounding the body and deepening the benefits of infrared heat. On top of all of this, you can roll the blanket up and store it in the brand’s Sauna Blanket Bag, which comes with comfortable backpack-style straps for travel.

The Hydragun HeatPod is very similar to the more pricey Higherdose. Similar to Higherdose, it has a 60 minute run time, 176 degrees Fahrenheit heat, and a durable vegan leather sleeping bag-like enclosure (that feels like to Higherdose’s).

Carrying a large and moderately heavy box to my apartment, I wondered what its contents could be. Fast forward a couple of minutes and I learned it was this Hydragun HeatPod Sauna Blanket. Since the unfolded blanket measures 71 inches by 71 inches and is made out of vegan leather, it definitely takes some effort to lug around—but it’s worth it. Accompanying the sauna blanket: a storage bag, user manual, and plug-in remote control with buttons for power, temperature, and a timer.

The HeatPod can reach anywhere between 86 and 176°F, and it’ll stay on for 5-60 minutes. Lastly, it uses infrared heat therapy to soothe your muscles and relieve your stress—at least that’s what it did for me. As an avid runner, I slipped myself into this sauna blanket during post-workout recovery and, as a menstruator, I snuggled in it when I had menstrual cramps. The Hydragun HeatPod Sauna Blanket is definitely pricey, but I think it’s worth the splurge.

The LifePro Far Infrared Sauna Blanket has a temperature range of 77° to 176° Fahrenheit and five layers—including a top waterproof layer and a bottom, non-toxic PU leather layer—to help your body detox and combat inflammation. We love this at-home sauna blanket because it comes with a built-in timer that ranges from 5 to 60 minutes and allows you to completely customize your time spent sweating, depending on your schedule—you can squeeze in a sweat session anytime during the day, even if it’s only for a few minutes.

Designed to promote detoxification with the benefits of far-infrared light, this at-home sauna blanket compares to its competitors (but costs a bit less) by promoting blood circulation, muscle recovery, pain relief, and more. The sauna also comes in various colors with five disposable thermal wraps, a head towel, and a carrying bag that makes it easy to bring it with you while on the go.
