About SaunaBlanketReviews

SaunaBlanketReviews is an independent review site. Former competitive swimmer, now a recovery coach who works with CrossFit athletes and weekend warriors. Started using sauna blankets in 2022 after her own shoulder surgery recovery stalled. Has tested 9 blankets over 3 years, weighs herself before and after every session to measure sweat loss, and keeps a logbook of core temperature, heart rate, and sleep quality.

Who's Behind This

Tessa, based in Boulder, Colorado, has been testing sauna blankets & home recovery for years. Every review on this site comes from hands-on time with the actual product — not spec sheets.

How We Test

• ✅ No sponsored reviews. We never accept payment for placements.

• ✅ Affiliate disclosure. Some links earn us a commission at no cost to you.

What We Believe

• A sauna blanket is not a sauna. If you buy it expecting one, you'll be disappointed. If you buy it for what it is - heat therapy on a couch - it's great.
• Sweat volume is the only honest metric. I weigh before and after every session.
• The zipper is the most failure-prone part. I've killed two blankets at the zipper, not the heating element.
• Temperature dials without a timer are a burn risk. I will not recommend a blanket without auto-shutoff.
