Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The ThermoLab AuraCore 6FT Steam Sauna is a portable steam tent with dual infrared light therapy at 850 nm and 650 nm, sold with a 1200W, 3L steamer for £199.99. The listing gives the frame as 180 x 80 x 80 cm and 9.38 kg, and says it assembles in about five minutes. It takes fourth place in this guide.
The interesting part is what the listing's own numbers say. A 1200W, 3L steam tent is also on this list at £62.62, so this one asks roughly 3.2 times that for the same headline specification. Its Best Sellers Rank reads "6,558 in DIY & Tools, 1 in Saunas" — the identical figure the other ThermoLab tent carries, which cannot be true of two different products. And the rating block gives 4.5 stars from 43 ratings, while the histogram on the same page totals 100: 10 one-star, 7 four-star and 83 five-star. Every figure on this page is taken from the Amazon listing, not from a test we ran.
