1,200 W of heat

That's the power the listing states, steamer included. Give it a wall outlet of its own, never a power strip or an extension cord.

What it has going for it

What changes in a small apartment

Chair included. The seat comes with it, per the listing, so you can set up and sit down the same evening.

3 L steamer. Steam inside the tent means warmer, wetter air than infrared panels alone. It also means wiping the inside dry and emptying the steamer after each session.

15 heat levels · remote. You change the heat and the time from inside, per the listing, without unzipping and letting the warmth out.

Studio apartment or spare room?

Studio apartment: the listing gives no open size, so ask for it, and it goes up in about 10 minutes. Folded, it lives in a closet. At 1,200 W, it wants a wall outlet of its own.

Spare room: leave it up and the evening starts with a switch instead of a setup. With the steamer, give the room some air and let the inside dry after each session.

Great for you if…

  • You like a humid, steamy heat
  • You want to adjust the heat without getting up

Skip it if…

  • You want to sit in a wooden room: this is a fabric tent
  • You don't want to dry the inside after every session
  • You'd rather wait for buyer reviews: none are captured for this listing yet

What I-THERA-U promises

The seller states, word for word, in the I-THERA-U Sauna Box (2 Red Light Panels) listing:

  • Our sauna steamer is constructed with 304 stainless steel, equipped with 1200W power that can fill the whole sauna box with heat and steam quickly in a few minutes.
  • No tools needed—assemble this portable sauna in 10 minutes with simple steps.
  • Equipped with a high-load folding chair that can support long-term use.

Their words and their figures, not our measurements. We leave out health promises, even when a listing makes them, and any low-EMF figure stays the seller's.

Frame, heat and what's in the box

What the I-THERA-U Sauna Box (2 Red Light Panels) listing names:

  • 1,200 W
  • 3 L steamer
  • Folding chair
  • Remote control
  • 15 heat levels
  • Head opening
  • Tool-free setup
  • Red light lamp (660 nm and 850 nm)

A better fit for your apartment?

Cold feet? The SereneLife Portable Sauna Box (8.6/10) has a heated foot pad, per its listing.

No steamer to dry out? The Durherm Portable Infrared Sauna (7.7/10) is infrared only, per its listing.

Two of you? The Amocane 2-Person Portable Sauna (5.6/10) is sold for two people.

Our take

The verdict

We like the I-THERA-U Sauna Box (2 Red Light Panels) for the seat included and a 3 L steamer. No buyer reviews yet, so this I-THERA-U portable sauna has to win you over on paper. The catch with the I-THERA-U: no word on the open size or the top temperature. We'd pick it if you like a humid, steamy heat; otherwise, put it next to the Manastin Portable Steam Sauna first.

Living with it

Setting up

About 10 minutes, per the listing, no tools. Open the frame, zip the cover on, unfold the chair, then plug it into the wall.

A session

The remote lets you change the heat from inside. Keep a towel and a glass of water within reach.

Afterwards

Empty the steamer and wipe the inside dry. Let it air out before you fold it away, so it smells fresh next time.

The one thing we'd check first

Before you order the I-THERA-U Sauna Box (2 Red Light Panels): check the outlet, because it draws 1,200 W, per the listing, so it wants a wall outlet of its own rather than a power strip.

Before you buy

The floor space

Leave room to zip in and out, and keep it on a flat, dry floor away from curtains.

The outlet

It draws 1,200 W, per the listing. Plug it into a wall outlet you trust, never an extension cord. Our 110 V vs 240 V guide explains what to read on the label.

Who it fits

Fabric tents are sized for sitting; check the height and the head opening against the tallest person who will use it.

Where it lives

With a steamer, the inside needs drying after each session before you fold it. Decide where it goes folded, and read our wood vs fabric guide if you are still torn between fabric and wood.

Frequently asked questions

Is the I-THERA-U Sauna Box (2 Red Light Panels) any good?

We rate it 5.4/10 (fair). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.

What outlet does the I-THERA-U Sauna Box, 2 Red Light Panels need?

We found no voltage in the listing. Read the electrical requirement on the listing and in the manual before you order: some cabins plug into a standard household outlet, others want a dedicated circuit. Anything beyond an existing standard outlet is a job for a licensed electrician. Our sauna size planner checks the floor space.

What do you get with the I-THERA-U Sauna Box (2 Red Light Panels)?

Its listing states a folding chair in the box, a 3 L steamer and 15 heat levels. These are the seller's figures, not our measurements: how warm it really gets on a cold evening and how sturdy the frame feels can't be read from a listing.

What should I check before ordering the I-THERA-U Sauna Box (2 Red Light Panels)?

The floor space: leave room to zip in and out, and keep it on a flat, dry floor away from curtains. The outlet: it draws 1,200 W, per the listing. Plug it into a wall outlet you trust, never an extension cord. Our 110 V vs 240 V guide explains what to read on the label. Who it fits: fabric tents are sized for sitting; check the height and the head opening against the tallest person who will use it. Where it lives: with a steamer, the inside needs drying after each session before you fold it. Decide where it goes folded, and read our wood vs fabric guide if you are still torn between fabric and wood.

Where can I buy the I-THERA-U Sauna Box (2 Red Light Panels)?

We link to the exact listing on Amazon, where today's price, stock and seller apply. It is an affiliate link, and it has no effect on the rating.
