Product information

Room to stretch out, built on a traditional profile. Cold Tub Ofuro takes its oval shape from the Japanese soaking tub tradition, here built for cold immersion at 190 x 120cm in heat treated Thermowood. More space than a round tub without a dramatically larger footprint or water volume. Solid timber, no moving parts, nothing electronic to fail. A genuinely simple piece of recovery equipment built to last for years. The Black Edition gives the Thermowood exterior a darker, contemporary finish.

A more spacious cold plunge changes the character of the cold water therapy experience meaningfully. Where a compact tub encourages a quick, focused dip, often crouched or seated upright, the Ofuro's traditional soaking profile allows a more relaxed, reclined immersion that many users find easier to settle into and stay in for a full session. This matters because immersion time is one of the key variables in how effective a cold plunge session is for recovery purposes.

The physiological benefits of cold exposure remain consistent regardless of tub shape: blood vessels near the skin constrict sharply on entry, with a rebound dilation once warmed afterwards, an effect widely associated with the alert, energised feeling many regular cold water practitioners describe. For recovery specifically, being able to immerse comfortably rather than fighting an awkward, cramped position can make the difference between a session someone actually completes properly and one cut short due to discomfort unrelated to the cold itself.

For taller users or anyone who's found smaller plunge tubs genuinely restrictive, a roomier option like this removes a real barrier to building a consistent cold therapy habit. Comfort during immersion, separate from the cold itself, plays a bigger role in adherence to a regular routine than many people expect, and a tub that actually fits the user properly tends to get used more consistently than one that feels like a squeeze every time.
Delivered flat packed for self-assembly, with free UK mainland delivery on qualifying orders. The larger oval format takes a little longer to assemble than the compact models, but remains a straightforward job for most competent DIYers in a few hours. Needs a solid, level base and clear access. Professional installation is available as an optional upgrade; see our Self Assembly Guide.
The Ofuro's larger water volume means slightly more attention to water management than a compact cold tub, but the core care routine is the same. Refresh the water regularly depending on usage frequency, since a larger volume left stagnant will still develop algae and odour over time, just as a smaller tub would. Wipe down the interior periodically, particularly along the waterline, and check the oval profile's joints for any sign of leaking.

Let the tub dry out fully between fills during periods of lower use, helping prevent mould developing on the timber surfaces. The greater surface area of an oval tub compared with a round equivalent means slightly more to check over during routine maintenance, but nothing beyond standard Thermowood care.

Externally, Thermowood's heat treatment gives it natural resistance to weathering, so it doesn't need the regular re-treatment standard spruce requires. A light oil treatment every couple of years will maintain its original colour if preferred, though letting it weather naturally to a silvery grey is equally valid and requires no maintenance at all.
This tub comes with a 5 year warranty for residential use and 2 years for commercial use, covering structural timber and hardware. Valid claims are assessed case by case, and we'll supply replacement parts wherever possible rather than the whole tub.
Production takes 2-4 weeks, plus 1-2 weeks dispatch time for pallet haulage. This tub is delivered flat packed unless otherwise stated. Free UK mainland shipping applies to orders over £500 covering up to one double pallet (2.4m x 1.2m x 2.2m) or two single pallets (1.2m x 1.2m x 2.2m). If your order exceeds this due to length, weight, or quantity, additional pallet charges may apply and are quoted separately based on postcode. Please have a solid base, clear access, and suitable unloading space ready before delivery. Pallet deliveries are kerbside only, and you're responsible for moving goods onto your property.

More room to stretch out and recover

The Cold Tub "Ofuro" takes its name and oval profile from the traditional Japanese soaking tub format, here adapted for cold water immersion rather than heated bathing. At 190 by 120 centimetres with a 97 centimetre depth, the oval shape gives more room to move and stretch out slightly compared with a round or square plunge tub of similar volume, while Thermowood construction provides the same heat treated durability used throughout the cold tub range for genuine year round resilience.

The longer oval footprint suits anyone who finds a tighter round or square tub restrictive, offering a bit more space without dramatically increasing the overall footprint or the amount of water needed to fill it each time. As with all cold water immersion, the Ofuro is built around the simple combination of solid timber and cold water rather than any mechanical complexity, which keeps it straightforward to own and maintain across the years, with nothing electronic to fail and very little that can go wrong with regular use.

This is a strong option for anyone who wants their cold plunge to feel slightly more spacious than a standard round tub, without moving into the territory of a full multi person installation that demands considerably more space and a larger volume of water to manage on a daily basis. The Black Edition gives the Thermowood exterior a darker, contemporary finish.
