The Monaco is for anyone who wants a large, 6 person infrared sauna with all 15 heating panels rated Near Zero EMF.
This Golden Designs infrared sauna seats 6 and uses 15 Carbon PureTech far infrared heating panels, each measured under 3 milligauss of EMF at 2 to 3 inches away, for very low electromagnetic exposure during your session. It runs on two dedicated 120V, 20 amp outlets rather than a 240V circuit, and it is built for indoor placement only, with natural reforested Canadian hemlock construction and a bronze tinted tempered glass door.

Fit, power and setup
This is an indoor only sauna, so plan for a roughly 73 by 67 inch room footprint, accounting for the roof overhang, with clearance for a 79 inch tall cabin. It needs two separate dedicated 120V, 20 amp circuits, non GFCI, rather than a single 240V line, so have a licensed electrician confirm your panel can supply them. Assembly is clasp together, and it ships freight in 4 boxes at 840 pounds, so plan for a delivery appointment.
Good to know
- Near Zero EMF means all 15 panels test under 3 milligauss close up, low exposure for daily use.
- Warm up runs to an ideal 118 F to 132 F, with a maximum of 140 F.
- You need two dedicated 120V, 20 amp circuits, not a single 240V outlet, so check your electrical panel first.
- The smart screen function needs a separate Amazon Firestick, which is not included.
