This little sauna brings with it a barrel of savings and health benefits. Named for its shape, the cedar Barrel Sauna comes in an assemble-yourself kit...
Once assembled, the Barrel Sauna simply stands alone as a portable sauna that can be moved when you do. The kit comes with a stove (either wood-burning or electric) and wood benches. The lengths of the saunas vary, but the 7' diameter appears comfortable from the looks of this photo.
Priced from just over $3,000 to just under $10,000, purchase online here.

cute, it looks like that cartoon train, Thomas was it?
I'll stick with 88 Fulton Street until my 6 floor tenement magically develops a backyard.
cute though!
very cute. the $3000 price is for a changing room add-on to the 8 foot unit. the cheapest actual sauna is $5000.
will it roll away?
What are the health benefits of sitting in a sauna?
super cute, and I *love* a good sauna. but is it just me or does that base look a bit... unsafe.
JefferyK: I don't know about the scientifically proven benefits of residency in a sauna, but I've become practically addicted to my local russian baths with their steamroom, shvitz, and dry sauna.
it's amazingly relaxing, and I always feel really high after I do it and old russian dudes that work there tell me that is the toxins in my body affecting me as they sweat out from the heat.
My skin always looks great the next day too.
Remember to throw a cup of water every now and then on to the stones to create steam when sauna bathing. It is essential, at least here in Finland. We even compete in sauna.
Sometimes we see bizarre notes "DO NOT THROW WATER" etc when going to sauna abroad. Weird people.
