Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The CIGAA Sauna Blanket, model B049, is a heated body blanket sold as a home spa session. The listing gives a heat range of 86–158°F and a timer of 20 to 60 minutes, run from a handheld controller, and the box includes five disposable blanket wraps and a storage bag. It costs £85.99 and sits at number seven in this guide.
The interesting part of this listing is not the price but the arithmetic. It shows 4.6 out of 5 from 16 reviews, while the star breakdown printed alongside reads 68 five-star, 23 four-star and 9 three-star — 100 votes in total. A 4.6 average is exactly what those 100 votes produce; it is not what 16 votes produce. The same listing also calls the product "Heating Without Infrared" in its title and then heads a bullet "Multiple Benefits Infrared Sauna Blanket" before adding "(Heating without infrared)". Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as published. We have not tested the blanket ourselves.
