I remodeled my bathroom about 2 years ago and did not have enough money in the budget for a wall mounted towel warmer rack. I got some extra money for Christmas this year and decided to start looking at towel warmers. As I was reading reviews I saw that a lot of people that had spent $100 to $300 on the wall-mounted towel warmer racks were disappointed in them because they only warm the part of the towel that sits on the bar. Then I happened across reviews for towel warmers like this one and they were very positive. This website had a great price compared to others I looked at so I decided to buy this one even though I couldn't find very many reviews for this model (in fact, only 1!)
I can truly say that for the money I am amazed. This unit is SO light weight I could definitely see traveling with it very easily. Its also big enough to hold my two large bath towels or 1 large towel and my pajamas, but it stores easily out of the way in my bathroom and the cord is long enough to move it around where ever I want it in my bathroom. It also gets my towels really hot. One suggestion do not put the towels in it folded up or they will not get heated evenly. Unfold the towel and just drop it down in there. The longer you leave the towels in the hotter they get and the more evenly heated they are. I also like the auto shut off at 50 minutes in case I forget to turn it off.
Overall this is a great product and I am very happy with no complaints.

I was very impressed with this appliance. With two large towels rolled up it heated them thoroughly in the time it took to take a shower. Highly recommend for everyone in the family
Best Deals on Conair Therma Luxe PTW1 Towel Warmer
I had high expectations of this product, based on some of the other reviews. My experience with it so far has been far less satisfying. The unit takes about 20-minutes to warm up. Who has time to take a 20-minute shower? I did connect it to a timer to overcome the heating time but still found the towels to be luke warm. If you try two thick towels, it only warms the outside. I've tried three different types of towels with the same result. Inserting a single towel, crumpled in the base works best, works best but still not great. I really expected warm towels--not towels with warm edges.
Honest reviews on Conair Therma Luxe PTW1 Towel Warmer
This item has turned out to be quite handy. The interior is quite large enough to hold either two standard towels or one bath sheet, plus underclothes, socks and a robe. Do not be mislead by those products that say they can hold "20 towels," as they are referring to small hand towels as might be used in a beauty shop. Here are some alternative ways to use this item:
1) PRE-BEDTIME: If you have just exercised and plan to go to bed after bathing, put the following items inside in the following order: robe on the bottom, then pajamas, under garments, socks, and towel on top. You will find the towel quickly loses heat in the open air as you are drying off (don't forget to close the lid to keep the other items warm while you towel off); the other items stay warm much longer than your towel. After turning the unit on to heat up, do your post-exercise stretches, brush your teeth, then shower or tub. The unit will have had plenty of time to warm your garments, and you will emerge clean, and warming your muscles after exercise. This "warm-down" routine is highly motivating to do the exercise, but it obviously also works if you are too tired to work out and just want to sink into bed warm and relaxed.
2) IF YOU PLAN TO GO OUT IN CASUAL CLOTHES AFTER BATHING: Put your slacks, shirt or sweatshirt, undergarments, socks, and towel in the unit and turn it on. Do whatever other pre-bath/shower preparations you wish (floss, brush your teeth), then shower or tub. Your clothes will be wonderfully warm once you've dried off, especially if you are going out in cold weather.
3) GIVE YOUR LITTLE ONES A TREAT: Put your toddler's robe, slippers (with soles on a paper towel), socks, and a favorite small stuffed toy on the bottom of the unit, then their pajamas and underwear topped by the towel (loading the unit can be done anytime during the day) and turn on the heat about 15 minutes before bathing them. Tub your little ones and let them know that a special treat is coming with toasty warm bedclothes to wear and a warm toy to hug while you read them a bedtime story. This routine may just make bath time less of a chore because of anticipating the warm towel, bedclothes, toy and story that follow. Just for safety sake, keep this unit out of the reach of children and unplug after use. I don't know that I'd try warming a baby's clothes because of their very tender skin.
4) I don't know how practical this idea is, but if you have time, warm the unit and your cold weather gear before going out in the cold: heat mittens/gloves, caps, neck scarves, socks and anything else that will keep you or your children warm during the winter. Remember that any metal objects (buttons, studs) on clothing can become very warm, so check those out the first time you try this. Fabric buttons should be OK. I understand that these units can be PUT ON AN AUTOMATIC TIMER, so you can set everything up the night before, and everything will be warming during breakfast, tooth brushing, hair and make-up.
I have my unit set to one side of a vanity plugged into a GFI outlet; it does not impinge on the sink at all. My bathroom is configured so that the shower is directly across from the sink, so I step out onto a bathmat and can reach over to the unit to get the towel and other items once I'm dry. This unit is stable and, of course, portable; e.g., if you just want to warm up your robe and pajamas--even a small pillow like a neck roll--in the bedroom (especially if you're under the weather) or watching TV anywhere. If you want to heat lightweight slippers, put a paper towel under the soles to keep the unit clean. The unit will fit on a night stand or end table and turns itself off automatically. Don't leave this unit where a child might knock it over or play with it.

My wife wanted a towel warmer, so with Mother's Day coming up, I started out researching free-standing and wall-mounted towel warmer racks/bars. Immpression of the racks found online was of spotty function or poor quality at unreasonable prices. Goal was a decent quality and reasonably-priced towel warmer, and found this unit. Seems great so far. Concept of dropping the towel (we don't roll it up, just drop it in) into an enclosed space to warm the entire towel makes more sense than a rack, and the unit takes up little space. Has one 20-minute heating cycle, which other reviewers suggested (and the instructions hint at) starting over for best warming. We've done both and either way seems acceptable to my wife. Styling is a little plain, sort of like a Rubbermaid container with a heating element, but then this is a basic-priced unit. Overall, my wife is pleased with it, which is what matters to me. Amazon purchase process and shipping was no problem; product arrived well packaged (Conair 'factory' box inside two other boxes -smart packaging) and on-time. Thanks, Amazon. Doug, Ashland, Oregon.
