Great Review David.. you are spot on with everything. I have been a Desert Plunge owner for about 6 months now. Matt and Brie really stand behind their plunges with some old school customer service that is rarely seen these days. Do not hesitate to get one you'll enjoy the heck out of it as I do.

Love your videos so keep up the good information. I do have a request, can you please to a comparison video between the Desert Plung and the ModTub. I want to start my journey with the cold but not sure what to get and those two are the ones I might be able to afford. I know they are almost the same but I would like to know which one you would spend the money on.

Great start up tutorial. I have ordered my Grizzly Desert Plunge and await the delivery. After doing the icebath by homemade block ice for 5 months, I'm so looking forward to my insulated tub and chiller upgrade. Almost 60 years old and God has opened my eyes to the spiritual, mental and physical benefits of cold plunge. Thanks Again...💪🙏💪

Hey David, I’ve been a fan of your channel since last November when my wife first told me she wanted a cold plunge. While doing my research I came across your content and it definitely saved me some time, money, and hard ache. We started with the Ice Pod Pro with a chiller. That was a great starter plunge. It was a little more than I wanted to spend on our first plunge considering I didn’t know if we would use it. But I didn’t want to fill it with Ice every time we were going to use it because if it was difficult to use we wouldn’t. We absolutely love it and have only missed a few days since November. We wanted to upgrade and were really stuck on what to buy next. We wanted something solid like the Ice Barrel 300 but did not want to DYI it. We also did not want to spend 10k either. We saw your video on the Mod Plunge and thought that was perfect. I decided to sleep on it over night and then saw your video on the Desert Plunge. While they’re very similar the Desert Plunge has an option for an ozone, which is a must. We actually bought the ozone off of Amazon that you recommended and had a great experience with it for our first plunge. We’ve had the Desert Plunge for over a month and we hit the jackpot. It has pretty much everything that the 10k plunges have for $3,400 (after using your code). Thank you very much for the advice and keep up the great content brother!

@DavidMausJr 10 ай бұрын

Many similarities, but from being able to review both here are the major differences: Modtub has multiple color options on the cooler itself, but they currently dont have a pre-filter and the pump is susceptible to breaking (ive had 3 break) from hair wrapping up around the pump blade. They also use a micron filter which needs to be replaced about every 1-2 weeks for me. Desert Plunge has 2 color options (grey and tan) BUT, has a lid latch to keep the lid from accidentally slamming on you or your kids (mine use the plunges all the time), they come with a pre filter, a better pump (in my opinion), a sediment filter which should last longer, and optional ozone built in which i LOVE. Both are great, I hope this helps.

Dave you’ve been amazing and so helpful with really breaking everything down to a simple level of understanding and you do such a great job of answering so many questions in your videos! You’ve given me so many ideas for the future of my health and family’s health. I always refere to your videos first when looking for information. I’m currently torn between I’ve barrel 500 with your chiller diy and the desert plunge...any perspective you could give would be so helpful in helping me decide. Another question I have is in regards to changing the temp and the expected time to meet the temp. Like if I’m going to have it set at 55 F for a first timer and then want to change it to, say…40 F. What would be the expect time to cool the water down? I live in PHX, AZ. So it gets hot. Any advice or info would be much appreciated!

Hey David, the lid lock is standard on the Grizzly 400 coolers, although the one you showed is thicker compared to the stock one. I think mod plunge removed it because others have stated that it rusts over time, especially with ozone I'm guessing.

Replace that sediment filter with a stainless steel mesh filter. Buy two and swap them every two weeks so you never have to buy filters again. Also add another 2 1/2 inch stainless steel mesh filter for a sink as the pre filter. The holes are tighter and will work better than the plastic 🙏🏻

Been watching your videos recently and just bought a desert plunge using your discount code. Took my first dip in it this mornin. Loved it. Just one question. How long will it hold the temp? Do I need to keep it on 24 hours so it’ll still be be cold at 6 AM? Or should I just turn the 2 hour system on before bed and should that have it ready to go in the morning? Thanks

@DavidMausJr 6 ай бұрын

Nice work! I would suggest keeping it on 24/7. That doesnt mean the chiller is on and pulling power that whole time, it only kicks on when the temp rises 2-3 degrees and stays on until it reaches the temp. The pump however will stay on and keep the water circulating and clean put doesnt pull much power.
