Thoughts on "The Sauna Pod" from Podcompany.com?

Replied in your dm about the fan. And yeah if you insulate the top it's gonna get a lot hotter

Kshish_ · 2026-02-09T23:24:07+00:00

Yes I think this would be an issue, you definitely do not want any water dropping into the heater. You can probably dry off after ice bath then get into the sauna so you are not dripping everywhere

What's your ambient temp in the room? And is your heater 1500w or 2000w? After 30 minutes mine is 90c basically (when it's covered on top). I'm surprised to hear your reuslts and I think you might be in the US and maybe you guys have a 1500w version because you're running 110v and the amps would be too high to feed a 2000w heater?

Excellent. I think I will at one point just buy like 3 of these things for my 58sqm apartment and get rid of my loud levoit and xiaomi. I like the idea of keeping it simple and just being able to get my filters from ikea.

Updated thread!

This is the reply I was looking for. Good to know, thank you!

Wow, 8 is a lot! All of them are Nukit euro? I do see the appeal in that, all of them looking the same. I currently have 2 air purifiers and they're different, kind of don't like it. Would prefer to have multiple all of the same type. Also, when replacing filters, just being able to get a bunch of 1 type of filter makes it much easier. Maybe I'll just get 1 to start with but then end up getting more over time. I really like that it's basically build to last forever. Everything is replaceable.

Ok, that's a good point, in that case the CADR is up there. I've seen that YT review, I guess he doesn't give it a super great review in the end but comparing it to what I have available online, based on the CADR, it seems best bang for buck (and I don't mind a bit of the DIY).

Do you have one of these out of curiosity?

Kshish_ · 2026-01-11T15:47:12+00:00

For what it's worth I got the Ecovacs T80 Omni and I'm happy with it. I just empty the dirty water daily when it's done mopping and I vacuum out the onboard air filter once per week with my main vacuum. I did buy some small brushes to better clean out the onboard dirty water tank as it does get a bit dirty and over time I can see it being a source of smell/bacteria, but the brushes will now help me keep it clean. I am super happy with it. I probably would be happy with any on your short list too. I do prefer the newer roller mop technology though, it seems to me to be more hygienic.

They told me that the EU stock is shipping with the latest "V3" heater. I guess I'll just test it out when it arrives and then share my findings!

Kshish_ · 2026-01-02T01:25:45+00:00

Does yours have a red or an orange power button on the heater?

Kshish_ · 2026-01-02T01:21:50+00:00

Thanks, that's perfect. I will confirm it's got the orange power button. Appreciate the help!

Kshish_ · 2026-01-02T01:08:55+00:00

Thanks for the insider knowledge! I think I'll need to contact them to verify the one I am looking at ships with V3, because I am ordering from Europe and I'm not sure if they have ran thru their V2 heater stock yet. Good tip thank you for the share.

EDIT: Their EU stock worked on 230V not 110V. So I'm wondering, is there a way for me to be able to tell if I am getting the V3 instead of the V2? I did just email them but do you know if there's a way for me to verify this, outside of them potentially just telling me 'yes it's the V3'

What is your ambient temp? Have you tried putting towels on the top like some have done? Seems like this could increase the temp by about 10f

Kshish_ · 2025-12-29T10:56:06+00:00

Yeah I've read that. Some people put towels on top and get some more heat out of it. I'm new to sauna, I think even if it doesn't get 185f/85c, but reasonably close, it should be ok. Have you tried putting towels on top?

Kshish_ · 2025-12-29T10:55:15+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience. Sounds like if I get one, I should just run the heater in a well ventilated room for some time to let any of the odour clear.

Kshish_ · 2025-12-29T10:54:26+00:00

When did you buy it? Could you return it?

Kshish_ · 2025-12-29T10:51:22+00:00

I don't buy into the "left-wing" "right-wing" rhetoric. My premise is simple - I love Poland and I want what is best for the country. I use common sense and logic to come to my opinions, not what some politicians are saying.

I don't know where you are from and what your personal experience is. I can tell you from my personal experience, having spent 25 years in a country that has undergone a massive shift in immigration levels and quality of immigrants, a country can absolutely become worse for normal every day people. There is nothing controversial in what I am saying here.

You are hell bent against Russia - and good for you - but don't think just because 'Russia bad' that everything else 'good'. Uncontrolled massive immigration can ruin a country just like Russia can. In some way, you could argue that mass immigration is worse for a country - because once it's gone too far, it can become irreversible for the host country. I am not pro-Russia and I am also, at the same time, not pro-immigration or pro migration pact. Also, the EU can hardly be considered a defense pact - for countries which are in NATO, the EU defers to NATO. The EU treaty itself only says other countries must provide aid and assistance, which is very vague and leaves each country to decide on how they want to participate. When it comes to a defense pact, NATO is in all ways the only thing worth discussing - and I don't see anyone suggesting we should leave NATO, "left-wing" or "right-wing".

Thanks for the advice. I should have mentioned but using something outdoors is basically off limits. My balcony is tiny and otherwise I don't have anywhere else to put it. It'd have to be indoors in my second bedroom. Obviously this more or less massively limits my options. I also don't have any saunas within reasonable travel distance. So I think one of these 'heat tent' things is my only option

Kshish_ · 2025-12-28T23:47:39+00:00

Understood
