This ice pod is not only portable and foldable, but you can set it up in only a few minutes. And better yet, it’s available on Amazon Prime, so you can get it delivered within just a few days.
The ice bath itself comes in one color — black — and might not be the largest, but it does pack in some other key selling points. The round, freestanding design can fit indoors, since it stands only two and a half feet tall and three feet wide, so our team gave this pick a 4.5 out of 5 for size and portability. However, for larger or taller athletes, it may be tough to submerge your whole body, due to the barrel design and height.
You may even be able to put this plunge in your tub. But, “Before you buy this Amazon tub, be sure to measure your own shower or tub and compare it to the product specs to make sure it fits properly,” Jake Herod, or expert product tester, recommends.
This ice bath is made with multiple layers of waterproof and tear-resistant materials, including a PVC inner layer, nylon outer layer and pearl foam insulation middle layer. We gave the durability and construction a 4.5 out of 5 because we also like that it includes a layer of insulation for use in cold or hot water.
At only $159.99, we gave the overall value a 4 out of 5. It doesn’t have any tech capabilities or automatic cooling but for a super simple DIY cold plunge, it’s a great value pick. Easily available on Amazon, this product offers ease of use, portability, and simple accessibility for most people. It’s also the least expensive pick on this list, so it’s great if you want to try cold plunging but don’t want to drop thousands of dollars quite yet.
