Pete Caldwell

Pete Caldwell leads the sauna reviews and oversees the community ranking at SaunaTier. The focus is simple: cut through marketing claims and help readers buy the right sauna for their space, budget and the way they actually want to use it.

What I cover

• Infrared saunas, 1-person cabins, full-spectrum, low-EMF and portable units.
• Traditional and barrel saunas for indoor and outdoor use.
• How-to and safety guides: session length, temperature, frequency and setup.
• The US and German markets, which differ a lot on brands and price.

How I work

Rankings here are never pay-to-play. I combine the live community vote with documented specs and a careful read of the evidence, and I flag clearly when a health or safety claim is uncertain. See How we rank for the full method.
