Is bigger better? we think so. You have spoken and we have listened. Our Wide Grizzly 450 Cold Plunge is 7.5″ wider than the Original. This limited-edition, wider iceless ice bath experience is perfect for tandem cold plunging, people who like to sit cross legged as they plunge, or those just wanting a little more room to spread out. It’s also a good solution for men with very broad shoulders / football player physique.

Features

Durable rugged tub, great for both indoor and outdoor use, with a child-proof, lockable lid.
Cools to a frosty 39 degrees with its quarter horsepower chiller, no ice needed.
Equipped with a water filtration system; we additionally recommend a water cleaning method such as Ozone or Sirona (more on that below)
The Wide can accommodate not only 6’ 8” + taller people comfortably, but with extra room to spread out, you can fit a friend in there too! This is a one to two person tub.
An open bottom design on the 450 prevents standing water from accumulating; the Wide has two drain ports.
Prop latching lid bracket that will hold the lid open while plunging. On the Wide, the bracket is on the outside of the tub.
Power requirements: Standard 110V outlet; draws 6.5 amps while chiller is running.
Comes in a wider range of colors.
Due to its wider profile, flat shipping on these tubs is $275.

We highly recommend choosing a water sanitation method for your cold plunge.

Squeaky Clean

Water Treatment: Ozone

Ozone sanitation is a is a great chemical-free option for keeping your water clean. A generator attaches to the back of your cold plunge tub, releasing ozone into the water daily using an air pump. The ozone generator turns on and off by a timer, making it a hands-off maintenance option. While ozone can be a great sanitation method, you need to ensure you are entering the plunge after rinsing off and wearing swimsuit material only. Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent which when dissolved in water, produces a broad spectrum biocide that helps eliminate bacteria and viruses; ozone for water treatment has been used since 1904. See also our Ozone FAQs and check out the video for more information. Please note, if you keep your cold plunge outside in freezing temperatures, ozone tubing will need to be monitored for blockages, and ozone should not be used in temperatures below 20 degrees F.

Squeaky Clean

Water Treatment: Sirona

Our Sirona Water Maintenance Kit is a chlorine free and bromine free product that you’ll add to your cold plunge water based on the results of weekly testing; testing info and pH strips are included.

The Sirona Water Maintenance Kit is a stronger cleaning agent than ozone; it is ideal if there are a number of people regularly using your cold plunge or if your are not as diligent about rinsing off before getting in the water. See more information about Sirona use and testing on our care and maintenance page.

The wide grizzly plunge is amazing. Plenty of space for me to get in, fully submerge and embrace the cold. At 6’2 with wide shoulders the wide plunge ensures that I am not touching the sides when in the plunge. I do have to bring my legs out to dunk my head, but that is not the end of the world. I highly recommend this plunge for everyone!

I have been cold plunging for a decade. Did many years of bathtub plunges with ice, and a few years ago got a portable ice bath for outside. One of the cheap ones that are basically just vinyl. It worked decent during winter months but was essentially useless in the Southern California heat for 7-8 months out of the year. I wanted to invest in something a bit better and I began the long search of different options. I tossed around getting many different kinds but they all had their drawbacks and some came with massive price points. On top of that I was concerned with the water remaining cold and not overworking the chiller as it would be stored outside. That’s when I came across some videos that David Maus Jr had put out and I really liked the simple setup that Desert Plunge offered. I pulled the trigger and purchased one in August of 2024. This thing is amazing. The insulation is fantastic and keeps the water freezing cold even while the heat and sun are baking the outside of it. The chiller runs effortlessly and maintenance has been super easy. If you pick one up, make sure to opt for the Ozone. It’s been great and no need to add anything else to the water. I now use the plunge everyday and have it set at 39 degrees.

I am super happy with my Grizzly Plunge with Ozone. Matt and the Desert Plunge team were so responsive before and after my purchase, he personally got on the phone and took time to answer my questions and concerns. It is a really great product and a fantastic company. Super easy to set up and I plunge daily, very happy customer!

John T (verified owner) – May 31, 2024

I was super excited to purchase my Desert Plunge, and pleasantly surprised at how quickly it went from order to arrival. Every component was packed inside the cooler and the cooler was repackaged in its original Grizzly packaging, which in my opinion was a great way to minimize waste and ensure the product was adequately protected for delivery.
Assembly was so very easy and straightforward. I am super pleased with how quick I went from unpacking to assembled and filling it with water.
I have mine set to 44 degrees, which the chiller easily maintains, I live about 45 miles east of SF where the weather can get into the low 100s, so far this year we have hit high 90s and the water is within the degree range I configured the chiller to be in, consistently.
Sure I could have DIY’d it, but given the polished final product and the frustrations of sourcing the parts myself, it was an easy choice to purchase this product.

Just upgraded to Desert Plunge with ozone from DIY freezer. It is a drastic improvement. The ease of set up and maintenance made it so worth it. The water is a consistent temperature, always sanitized and clean. The look of it is perfect as well.

Had a couple of questions during the initial maintenance and Matt’s response was same day.

I couldn’t be happier.

Absolutely amazing! We purchased a starter plunge with a chiller last November and wanted to move up to a better and larger unit. We did a lot of research and found Desert Plunge to be the best. So many things we love about it but a few are the “cooler” itself is hard and closes and locks. We found that the chiller has to work less because of the quality and insulation. Desert Plunge also has an option for ozone treatment, which is a must, just set the timer and that’s it. This is also the best chiller on the market. Set up was easy and only took about 15 minutes everything’s is pre done and impossible to mess up. If you’re as serious about plunging as we are look no further then Desert Plunge.

As someone who has often plunged elsewhere, but never at home it’s been a real pleasure having the Desert Plunge now just a stone’s throw away in my backyard. While I was initially intimidated when it arrived, the instructional video and ease of touching base with Desert Plunge HQ has made the first month a breeze. Looking forward to many plunges to come!

First I want to thank the Family at Desert Plunge!! You are amazing and I wish you great success!!! My plunge was delivered to the house and the shipper did not show up with a lift gate. This was an issue as the driver had to pull it off of the truck thus damaging the cooler and the feet were missing and the unit had cosmetic damage. I reached out and was given a response immediately. I received new feet and after setting up did not notice any other issues with the unit. The plunge itself is very easy to set up as everything is numbered and they include video directions as well. I have been using it twice daily and could not be happier!!! Thank You so much Tammie and Matt!!! I wish every company had the same service and support.

Steve D (verified owner) – May 20, 2024

The “Grizzly” cold plunge tub is nothing short of AWESOME! It arrived within 10 days of ordering it (it had to ship to North Carolina and I had to wait a few days to schedule delivery due to my work schedule), took me literally about 15 minutes to set it up, and – after adding some ice bags to it to get the temp down – was ready to use in an hour (at 40 degrees). I’ve only been using it for two days but it is truly a dream from ordering to setting up to using. I watched a great video (by David Maus Jr. – they have the link on the “accessories” page for the ozone add-on) to take me through the step-by-step setup but all the connections (e.g. hoses to fittings on the tub) were numbered so even without the video, I think I could have figured it out fairly quickly even without the video. As background, I started doing “cold plunges” last fall using my outdoor pool after learning about the benefits through a podcast by Dr. Anthony Balduzzi of the Fit Father Project where he interviewed the Desert Plunge founder Matt Kuiper. After benefitting IMMENSELY from the cold plunges (the “serotonin/dopamine” effects are for real as are the circulatory, metabolic, muscle recovery, mental toughness, etc. benefits) throughout the winter, I started to experience a noticeable decrease in the benefits as the water in my pool warmed up in the spring. My wife INSISTED I get this as even she noticed the difference. I am SO glad I listened to her (as usual). I splurged and got the ozone and sanitation kit and I’m happy with both as I want to keep this thing clean and humming for as long as I can. The whole thing seems sturdy, the pump and filter are SO quiet, and I’m hoping that it lasts a LONG time. It’s actually smaller than I thought (but exactly per the dimensions on this site) but I fit in it comfortably (I’m 6 foot even, about 165-170 lbs) and it’s easy to step into. It may seem like a lot of money but I truly believe it’s worth it given the MANY benefits I receive from it. IMHO – It’s better to pay a couple of thousand and live a healthy, quality life now (I’m in my late-50s) than suffer for a couple of decades and pay TENS of thousands to doctors and pharmacies to heal all the the mental and physical aches (which is ultimately just treating the symptoms – NOT the causes) later. THANK YOU MATT.

First things first, the family that owns and operates this company is truly in it for the right reasons. They are generous and kind and want to help people use the tools that have helped them. I came to these guys during a rough time in my life and healing journey and they were patient, kind and generous towards me. As for the cold plunge, it’s a worthy investment at a very affordable cost. I’ve had my plunge for a few months now and I love it. I use it every single day, at times twice a day. It’s been huge in my healing journey with PTSD and is a daily part of my integration. The tub is well made, durables easy to care for and a set it and forget it until it’s time to switch filters and water. It holds temp no problem. I am going to get a cover for it so I can keep the sun damage at bay as well as help it hold temp better. But all in all I’m happy to have had the opportunity to support this company and would recommend them to anyone looking to invest in their health and well being.

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing my Cold Plunge for about a month now, and I must say, it has completely transformed my routine. The cold plunge feature, in particular, stood out as a game-changer. Not only did it arrive promptly, but the customer service was impeccable – Tammie, one of the owners, went above and beyond to address all my inquiries, making the experience even more satisfying.

Since incorporating my Cold Plunge into my regimen, I’ve noticed a myriad of benefits. From the disappearance of muscle soreness to enhanced mental clarity, the positive effects are undeniable. If you’re contemplating purchasing one, I urge you not to hesitate – it’s a decision you won’t regret. Desert Plunge has truly elevated my wellness journey, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

I have been cold plunging for about 6 months and was looking for a new plunge system that included a chiller system. I researched everything out there and I chose the Desert Plunge with the ozone system. I live in AZ and I needed something that would stand up to the tough elements of extreme heat we have here during the summer. I received my order in about 2 business days and I followed the easy setup instructions and had it all set up and running in under 30 mins. I have been extremely impressed with the function and ease of use and I absolutely love it. The water is crystal clear and clean at all times with the ozone cleaner and the chiller works perfectly and keeps the temp right where I like it which is 42 degrees. Awesome customer service and ver friendly and willing to help answer all questions. Highly recommend!

My wife and I love and use our tub every day. We are up there in age and feel it gives us much relief from inflammation throughout our body. The one great asset we never thought of before our purchase, is the perk up to our day when we plunge late afternoon. About 3-4PM each day our energy levels diminish noticeably, but as soon as we plunge a renewed energy takes over to get us to the end of the day.

I can’t say enough about our new cold plunge. I picked up locally and Matt himself walked me through all the things to look for and how to set up. He made use I was comfortable with everything before I loaded up and that made setup so easy. I was done in less than 20 mins and that includes filling with water. The next morning I was plunging in a crisp 48 degrees and I could not be happier with how it worked out. I have told multiple other people about how amazing it is and a bunch of friends have come to try as well. They all love it. This should be a household item everyone uses. Matt and his team have done an amazing job to provide a top notch product.

SO happy with my purchase!!! I had problems with osteoarthritis which really affected my lower extremities. After my first plunge I could tell the difference. I was able to sleep through the night without my leg and foot pain waking me up. I have had it for about 3 weeks now and I feel 10 years younger. Matt and his staff were so helpful with all my questions and requests. Also so glad I went this route with the whole package ready to go. This plunge is fantastic quality and very worth the price, especially for your health. Plunging adds 10 minutes to my morning routine and is so convenient. I go from shower, to plunge, to getting dressed. Adds 10 min a day between shower and dressing and you are energized. I can’t even imagine doing the ice thing every day, seems so time consuming and inconsistent water temps from plunge to plunge. do yourself a favor, you won’t regret it.

I was able to put together with water added in about 30-40 minutes, instructional videos were spot on.

After much research from the most expensive to the most affordable decided to go with a Dessert Plunge. I was a little skeptical at first due to the fact that there’s another company selling the exact setup. I asked many questions and trusted the owner of this company over the other. They seemed more genuine and their story behind the product felt real. The product itself is phenomenal. Setup was a breeze and if you follow good higiene your water will be easy to maintain and keep fresh. Best plunge for the money by far.

I started researching cold plunges after I used my cousins for two weeks and needed to get one for myself. It is the first thing I do in the morning and has helped with some of my Chronic Lyme Symptoms. It immediately relieves my stiff joints and back pain that I wake up with in the morning and then I am off to do my workout for the day. It also helps calm my mind as I know stress can trigger my symptoms. My older children and husband use it frequently also before or after their cross fit workouts. After looking around at plunges I know I made the right choice, the customer service is wonderful, the plunge is easy to take care of and if I have any questions I never hesitate to ask!

Amazing product. Great service and always available to answer questions. This was SO easy to put together – I’m a single female, not very technical – but the step by step video that came with it was so good! It took me about 20 min to do, solo.

I also LOVE the story behind this company and the mental health advocacy behind it. Cold plunging changed my life – I had a lot of anxiety and panic attacks. I started jumping in my pool a year ago, and it helped. Then I found a monthly place to do the cold plunging. And finally found Desert Plunge to buy my own (same price monthly as I was paying to go to a place). I chose Desert Plunge because of the story Matt shared with me on why he started the company. Amazing company. Amazing support. Amazing community – and so affordable!

That’s when I came across some videos that David Maus Jr had put out and I really liked the simple setup that Desert Plunge offered. I pulled the trigger and purchased one in August of 2024. This thing is amazing. The insulation is fantastic and keeps the water freezing cold even while the heat and sun are baking the outside of it. The chiller runs effortlessly and maintenance has been super easy. If you pick one up, make sure to opt for the Ozone. It’s been great and no need to add anything else to the water. I now use the plunge everyday and have it set at 39 degrees.

I am super happy with my Grizzly Plunge with Ozone. Matt and the Desert Plunge team were so responsive before and after my purchase, he personally got on the phone and took time to answer my questions and concerns. It is a really great product and a fantastic company. Super easy to set up and I plunge daily, very happy customer!

I was super excited to purchase my Desert Plunge, and pleasantly surprised at how quickly it went from order to arrival. Every component was packed inside the cooler and the cooler was repackaged in its original Grizzly packaging, which in my opinion was a great way to minimize waste and ensure the product was adequately protected for delivery.
Assembly was so very easy and straightforward. I am super pleased with how quick I went from unpacking to assembled and filling it with water.
I have mine set to 44 degrees, which the chiller easily maintains, I live about 45 miles east of SF where the weather can get into the low 100s, so far this year we have hit high 90s and the water is within the degree range I configured the chiller to be in, consistently.
Sure I could have DIY’d it, but given the polished final product and the frustrations of sourcing the parts myself, it was an easy choice to purchase this product.

Just upgraded to Desert Plunge with ozone from DIY freezer. It is a drastic improvement. The ease of set up and maintenance made it so worth it. The water is a consistent temperature, always sanitized and clean. The look of it is perfect as well.

Had a couple of questions during the initial maintenance and Matt’s response was same day.

I couldn’t be happier.

Absolutely amazing! We purchased a starter plunge with a chiller last November and wanted to move up to a better and larger unit. We did a lot of research and found Desert Plunge to be the best. So many things we love about it but a few are the “cooler” itself is hard and closes and locks. We found that the chiller has to work less because of the quality and insulation. Desert Plunge also has an option for ozone treatment, which is a must, just set the timer and that’s it. This is also the best chiller on the market. Set up was easy and only took about 15 minutes everything’s is pre done and impossible to mess up. If you’re as serious about plunging as we are look no further then Desert Plunge.

As someone who has often plunged elsewhere, but never at home it’s been a real pleasure having the Desert Plunge now just a stone’s throw away in my backyard. While I was initially intimidated when it arrived, the instructional video and ease of touching base with Desert Plunge HQ has made the first month a breeze. Looking forward to many plunges to come!

First I want to thank the Family at Desert Plunge!! You are amazing and I wish you great success!!! My plunge was delivered to the house and the shipper did not show up with a lift gate. This was an issue as the driver had to pull it off of the truck thus damaging the cooler and the feet were missing and the unit had cosmetic damage. I reached out and was given a response immediately. I received new feet and after setting up did not notice any other issues with the unit. The plunge itself is very easy to set up as everything is numbered and they include video directions as well. I have been using it twice daily and could not be happier!!! Thank You so much Tammie and Matt!!! I wish every company had the same service and support.

The “Grizzly” cold plunge tub is nothing short of AWESOME! It arrived within 10 days of ordering it (it had to ship to North Carolina and I had to wait a few days to schedule delivery due to my work schedule), took me literally about 15 minutes to set it up, and – after adding some ice bags to it to get the temp down – was ready to use in an hour (at 40 degrees). I’ve only been using it for two days but it is truly a dream from ordering to setting up to using. I watched a great video (by David Maus Jr. – they have the link on the “accessories” page for the ozone add-on) to take me through the step-by-step setup but all the connections (e.g. hoses to fittings on the tub) were numbered so even without the video, I think I could have figured it out fairly quickly even without the video. As background, I started doing “cold plunges” last fall using my outdoor pool after learning about the benefits through a podcast by Dr. Anthony Balduzzi of the Fit Father Project where he interviewed the Desert Plunge founder Matt Kuiper. After benefitting IMMENSELY from the cold plunges (the “serotonin/dopamine” effects are for real as are the circulatory, metabolic, muscle recovery, mental toughness, etc. benefits) throughout the winter, I started to experience a noticeable decrease in the benefits as the water in my pool warmed up in the spring. My wife INSISTED I get this as even she noticed the difference. I am SO glad I listened to her (as usual). I splurged and got the ozone and sanitation kit and I’m happy with both as I want to keep this thing clean and humming for as long as I can. The whole thing seems sturdy, the pump and filter are SO quiet, and I’m hoping that it lasts a LONG time. It’s actually smaller than I thought (but exactly per the dimensions on this site) but I fit in it comfortably (I’m 6 foot even, about 165-170 lbs) and it’s easy to step into. It may seem like a lot of money but I truly believe it’s worth it given the MANY benefits I receive from it. IMHO – It’s better to pay a couple of thousand and live a healthy, quality life now (I’m in my late-50s) than suffer for a couple of decades and pay TENS of thousands to doctors and pharmacies to heal all the the mental and physical aches (which is ultimately just treating the symptoms – NOT the causes) later. THANK YOU MATT.

First things first, the family that owns and operates this company is truly in it for the right reasons. They are generous and kind and want to help people use the tools that have helped them. I came to these guys during a rough time in my life and healing journey and they were patient, kind and generous towards me. As for the cold plunge, it’s a worthy investment at a very affordable cost. I’ve had my plunge for a few months now and I love it. I use it every single day, at times twice a day. It’s been huge in my healing journey with PTSD and is a daily part of my integration. The tub is well made, durables easy to care for and a set it and forget it until it’s time to switch filters and water. It holds temp no problem. I am going to get a cover for it so I can keep the sun damage at bay as well as help it hold temp better. But all in all I’m happy to have had the opportunity to support this company and would recommend them to anyone looking to invest in their health and well being.

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing my Cold Plunge for about a month now, and I must say, it has completely transformed my routine. The cold plunge feature, in particular, stood out as a game-changer. Not only did it arrive promptly, but the customer service was impeccable – Tammie, one of the owners, went above and beyond to address all my inquiries, making the experience even more satisfying.

Since incorporating my Cold Plunge into my regimen, I’ve noticed a myriad of benefits. From the disappearance of muscle soreness to enhanced mental clarity, the positive effects are undeniable. If you’re contemplating purchasing one, I urge you not to hesitate – it’s a decision you won’t regret. Desert Plunge has truly elevated my wellness journey, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

I have been cold plunging for about 6 months and was looking for a new plunge system that included a chiller system. I researched everything out there and I chose the Desert Plunge with the ozone system. I live in AZ and I needed something that would stand up to the tough elements of extreme heat we have here during the summer. I received my order in about 2 business days and I followed the easy setup instructions and had it all set up and running in under 30 mins. I have been extremely impressed with the function and ease of use and I absolutely love it. The water is crystal clear and clean at all times with the ozone cleaner and the chiller works perfectly and keeps the temp right where I like it which is 42 degrees. Awesome customer service and ver friendly and willing to help answer all questions. Highly recommend!

My wife and I love and use our tub every day. We are up there in age and feel it gives us much relief from inflammation throughout our body. The one great asset we never thought of before our purchase, is the perk up to our day when we plunge late afternoon. About 3-4PM each day our energy levels diminish noticeably, but as soon as we plunge a renewed energy takes over to get us to the end of the day.

I can’t say enough about our new cold plunge. I picked up locally and Matt himself walked me through all the things to look for and how to set up. He made use I was comfortable with everything before I loaded up and that made setup so easy. I was done in less than 20 mins and that includes filling with water. The next morning I was plunging in a crisp 48 degrees and I could not be happier with how it worked out. I have told multiple other people about how amazing it is and a bunch of friends have come to try as well. They all love it. This should be a household item everyone uses. Matt and his team have done an amazing job to provide a top notch product.

SO happy with my purchase!!! I had problems with osteoarthritis which really affected my lower extremities. After my first plunge I could tell the difference. I was able to sleep through the night without my leg and foot pain waking me up. I have had it for about 3 weeks now and I feel 10 years younger. Matt and his staff were so helpful with all my questions and requests. Also so glad I went this route with the whole package ready to go. This plunge is fantastic quality and very worth the price, especially for your health. Plunging adds 10 minutes to my morning routine and is so convenient. I go from shower, to plunge, to getting dressed. Adds 10 min a day between shower and dressing and you are energized. I can’t even imagine doing the ice thing every day, seems so time consuming and inconsistent water temps from plunge to plunge. do yourself a favor, you won’t regret it.

If you’re looking for a quality cold plunge at an affordable price, look no further! I’ve had the plunge for about a month and absolutely love it. Ordering and delivery was seamless. I was able to put together with water added in about 30-40 minutes, instructional videos were spot on. I recommend getting the ozone addition, makes it much easier not having to worry about the cleanliness of tub as long as you follow instructions on showering off before entering. Customer service has been top notch with quick responses. Highly recommend if you’re in the market!

I looked around for a good plunge after finding a family-owned business I was hooked. They were very responsive to emails and even took calls answering all my questions. I ended up purchasing the grizzly which is amassing. When I received it, it was very easy to set up. there is a step-by-step video that explains everything that is needed. (even Maintenace tips)
I use this every morning to get my day going. The value is truly the best one on the market. I purchased the OZONE kit which no chemicals are needed. Keeps the water fresh, on a timed regular basis.
Love it, would recommend it to anyone in the market for your personal Desert Plunge right in your own home.

I couldn’t help but relate to Matt’s story about how plunging helped his anxiety. It has been such a challenge, but so rewarding to plunge each morning.

I opted for the ozone system to keep it clean, and it works amazing. It’s also super easy to drain and refill. I would 100% recommend Desert Plunge to anyone who wants an easy set up, always cold and ready to use plunge. The price point is amazing for what you get! What are you waiting for, get cold!

After much research from the most expensive to the most affordable decided to go with a Dessert Plunge. I was a little skeptical at first due to the fact that there’s another company selling the exact setup. I asked many questions and trusted the owner of this company over the other. They seemed more genuine and their story behind the product felt real. The product itself is phenomenal. Setup was a breeze and if you follow good higiene your water will be easy to maintain and keep fresh. Best plunge for the money by far. Matt the owner has been on top of the game with customer service. Always answering when I needed any assistance. A+++ customer service. Thank you Dessert Plunge for an awesome product. VERY happy, satisfied customer and supporter.

I started researching cold plunges after I used my cousins for two weeks and needed to get one for myself. It is the first thing I do in the morning and has helped with some of my Chronic Lyme Symptoms. It immediately relieves my stiff joints and back pain that I wake up with in the morning and then I am off to do my workout for the day. It also helps calm my mind as I know stress can trigger my symptoms. My older children and husband use it frequently also before or after their cross fit workouts. After looking around at plunges I know I made the right choice, the customer service is wonderful, the plunge is easy to take care of and if I have any questions I never hesitate to ask! Thank you Desert Plunge.

Amazing product. Great service and always available to answer questions. This was SO easy to put together – I’m a single female, not very technical – but the step by step video that came with it was so good! It took me about 20 min to do, solo.

I also LOVE the story behind this company and the mental health advocacy behind it. Cold plunging changed my life – I had a lot of anxiety and panic attacks. I started jumping in my pool a year ago, and it helped. Then I found a monthly place to do the cold plunging. And finally found Desert Plunge to buy my own (same price monthly as I was paying to go to a place). I chose Desert Plunge because of the story Matt shared with me on why he started the company. Amazing company. Amazing support. Amazing community – and so affordable!
