Our verdict on each
Bast Sauna
Bast Sauna suits buyers who want a home sauna and a cold plunge from one seller, and prices start at €525.95. Capacity leads the group on seats at 10 people, though its guarantee of 2 years is among the shorter ones and setup is not plug and play.
Redwood Outdoors

Pros and cons
Bast Sauna
Pros
- Prices from €525.95, well below the €1,402.26 median for this group, so a cold plunge or small sauna is a realistic first buy.
- Covers sauna and cold plunge in one range, where Vellgus offers infrared sauna alone.
- Finance is available and delivery is included, so the listed figure is closer to the figure you pay.
Cons
- Plug and play is not offered, so setup belongs to the buyer.
- Warranty of 2 years ranks 11 of 18 against a group median of 4 years.
- The range is sauna and cold plunge only, against hot tub, inflatable hot tub and swim spa at Saunaloft and hot tub, inflatable hot tub and cold plunge at Lay-Z-Spa, so there is no hot tub option here.
Redwood Outdoors
Pros
- Cold plunges, hot tubs and saunas all sit in the same range, and the entry point is $1,500.
- Finance is available, shared with 88.9% of the hot tub brands tracked, so spreading the cost is standard practice.
- Seating reaches 8 people, above the 7 median across the brands on the site, so a group fits in a single unit.
Cons
- Delivery is not included, so freight sits on top of the $1,500 entry price.
- The warranty runs 1 year, shorter than the 2 median for hot tub brands.
- Price from ranks 11 of 25 brands compared, so the entry figure sits mid list rather than at the budget end.

Questions about each
Bast Sauna
How much does a Bast Sauna sauna or cold plunge cost to start?+
Prices start at €525.95 on the ice bath collection, well under the €1,402.26 median for the saunas and cold plunges group. Delivery is included at that figure, so the headline number is closer to what you pay than a bare unit price. Larger sauna builds sit above it.
Does delivery cost extra on a Bast Sauna order?+
Delivery is included in the listed price, so the €525.95 starting figure is the number you plan around rather than a unit price plus freight. Sales run across AX, AT and BE, so check your country sits in that list before ordering, since included delivery is stated for the range as sold.
Redwood Outdoors
How much does the cheapest tub or plunge cost?+
Prices start at $1,500 across the collection of tubs and plunges, and finance is available on top, so a buyer can spread the cost rather than pay the full figure at once. Delivery is not included, which means freight is budgeted separately from the headline price.
What kinds of products does Redwood Outdoors sell?+
The range covers hot tub, sauna and cold plunge. A buyer can take a cold plunge, a hot tub and a sauna from the same seller instead of building a setup across separate brands. Lay-Z-Spa covers hot tub, inflatable hot tub and cold plunge, so inflatable options sit on that side of the market.
