What is its heat resistance--what temperature range does it tolerate? I want to put it in my towel warmer.

I have no idea about the temperature range other than I dry my towels in the dryer with all the other cotton towels and it doesn't damage them.

I wouldn't put it in an oven, but it should be fine in a towel warmer. It stands up fine to the extra-high antibacterial setting on my dryer.

Hi,Well once I have used it in sauna and after it was ok and I think that it can take the towel warmer, cause in sauna it was about 80 Celsius.

I have never used a towel warmer on my Fina Ultra Aborbent towels...but I do dry them in the dryer, after being washed in warm water, for a short period of time. They look/feel 'just like new' being used daily for 2 years.

I noticed on the description it mentions about 100 degrees, but this is actually a low voltage heated pad. The description mentions about it being low wattage 25 degrees and all the heated pads I have are just warm to the touch so I feel the 25 degrees is correct and believe the 100 degrees is a mis-print on the product description.

Interesting question as it is a dish drain. It is silicone so it should be heat resistant, but I do not know from experience.

I am heating my bathroom with it (90 sqft). Our place is well insulated and it usually doesn't get below 40 degrees here so that would be the qualifier. Doug Doyle

Im not sure what you mean but I just plug it in and after about a half hour it is warm but it is not as warm as I would like if I were you I would get a towel warming rack from what I heard them are a lot better that's what im going to get next when this one don't work anymore.

I do not believe there is any danger if damp towels are used in the warmer. If the towels are any more then just damp it may increase the time needed to warm them. What my wife and I have found is that if the towel is "fluffed" and dropped into the warmer it is faster and warms more evenly.

It will tolerate the temperature, but the probe is rather short for your purposes... I would be afraid of burning myself if used that way... maybe if you used a heat-proof glove at the same time?

After 1/2 hour the outside of the towel was toasty warm, but because the towel warmer is so small, you have to roll the towels fairly tightly, and the inside was still cold.

I do love the towel warmer. I have never hung more than one towel on it. We have never had any problems with it.

As a barber I've used a hot towel warmer for years. My preferred method is to fold the towel twice over, wet it, roll it, and wring it out, then put in the warmer. Without wringing it out it would be too hot and drippy. Dry it wouldn't hold it's heat once out. Plus... This isn't the sort of towel warmer to use for say... Warming a bath towel. More of a hand, neck, or face towel warmer. Hope that was helpful

Hot enough that you cannot hold you finger on it for more than half a second, but not so hot that it would catch something on fire. Not sure about exact temp, but I would say 120 degrees.

I bought one of those that also did not have a "sponge" then I realized it didn't heat beyond warm...JUNK tossed it. Bought a different brand, it's the exact same piece of crap, except it has the so called "sponge" . It's a cross between a shop towel and a wash cloth. So use a well wrung out wash cloth. Good luck, these things are really a horrible excuse for a "heating pad". Better to use one of those things you can throw in the microwave.

It doesn't get very hot. It makes our pajamas comfortably warm when stepping out of shower. Thick towels and items hardly get warm. Its best used for thin items.

It is fine at 400-425 degrees. I seasoned it once at 500 Degrees and the little yellow plug scorched a little and popped out after removing. So far the coating on the handle has held up fine though.

I have run it through the sanitize dishwasher cycle several times and it has held up very well (I use air dry, so can't confirm on heat resistance, but based on similar polyethylene items I've had in the past, I believe it would warp if I used heat dry)
