The plunge is our pick for the best all around cold plunge. Sure, there are cheaper options and more expensive options, but for most people - this hits the sweet spot - right smack in the middle between affordability and style.
So who is this best for? Let's dive in.
The Plunge
Pros
- Great mix of affordability and style.
- Multiple sizes for larger bodies.
- One of the best looking "affordable" cold plunges we've seen.
- Revolutionized the cold plunge space
Cons
- At about $8,500 (November 2026), this is a significant investment.
- Spa-aesthetic may not work for everyone.
- Like other self-cleaning plunges - this requires *some* maintenance.
The Backstory
For a long time in the cold plunge world - self cooling, self-cleaning cold plunges cost $10k+. They were cool as hell, but meant for industrial/gym uses and priced out of most people's budget.
But, during the pandemic - everything chnaged.
