How quickly does it warm towels?

Might take about 20 minutes to warm a wet towel, and 5 minutes to warm a dry towel. It keeps the bathroom a little warm and damp-free. Such a pleasure to have.

Towels are warm in an hour or less. We are really happy with this unit. High quality, looks nice. We put it on a cheap plug-in timer so it comes on every morning before we get up & goes off at 10:00 or so when towels are dry. Highly recommend. Works best when towels are folded in thirds, then in quarters length-wise. Holds the heat in better. If you drape an unfolded towel over it, heat escapes more readily & doesn't heat as thoroughly. I think this unit is superior to ones at Lowe's or other places. Also made in USA.

We leave it on all the time. It is hot enough that you can't hold it with your hand for more very long but not hot enough to burn. Not very scientific but hope it helps

Mine works really really well. I searched and searched and finally chose this one, i wanted hotel style towel warming. I thread two towels, one on top and one on bottom and they are very warm when i get out of shower. I would estimate about an hour or so to heat up to full capacity. Hope this helps i am a happy customer

It starts to get warm in 2-3 minutes, but 10-15 minutes makes the towels toasty, so turn it on ahead of time.

This will do the job...I have fluffy towels also... I warm 3 at all times... I leave the towel warmer on all of the 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.

Less than a minute. It is faster than the microwave to heat 2 cups of water.

I warm 2 towels, and a hair twist towel plus my gown at the same time. I also use it to dry the towels and wash rags before turning it off. It does pull some BTU's so either use a timer or don't forget to turn off after about 30 min. Love my towel warmer!!

About an hour if your wet the towel with hot water. If you use a dry towel, I'm not sure. There isn't an indication light or anything. It has a funky smell too.

No, it does not put heat out into the room. And honestly, it takes about 30 minutes to heat a medium weight towel. It's attractive and well made, but I don't think I would buy it again.

I am amazed that it is so hard to find a quality bathroom towel warmer. I have owned the conair/pollinex and brookstone models and they barely warm the towels at an allegedly 120 degree F maximum setting. There are face and hand towel warmers that go up to 176 degrees but I can't find one like that for a single full size bath towel. Does anyone have any recommendations? Would appreciate it! This one is getting mixed reviews in terms of it being big enough to comfortably handle one full sized bath towel.thanks!

About 10-15 minutes . But only the part of the towel touching the sides and bottom will be warm. Better than nothing . I have a heated towel rack in another part of the bathroom and would place these warmer towels in this device.... When it worked it was ok . Does not seem to be a really good one out there.

It does not consume much power if you connect a timer to it. We put the timer on for 3 hrs to dry all the towels. Towel dryer is not a heater.

comes with 6 small towels. I do not use them. Use the regular hand towels I had. Smaller ones are good for the hand, which I do not always to tx on. I like the steamer. It heats up fast and is a lot hotter than towel cabi which I use in my office. I use the steamer at home.

it heats up fast, but does not have continuous steam. it works best for short periods of time and you need to shake it every now and then.

The unit warms quickly---just a few minutes. The towel, depending on its size varies. We only turn it on just prior to showering and leave it on for a half to one hour. Does the job.

I'm not sure as I've not left it on more as long as eight hours, but my towel was dry by the end of the day, due to the air circulating around it. I'd put mine in at least an hour before showering, and it was quite warm by the time I used it. Hope that helps.

Hard to say. I only got to use my towel warmer ONCE on Christmas morning, and then it quit working altogether. The burden is now on me to ship it back, by mail, in a suitable box with appropriate postage, packing slip, etc. What a HASSLE (not to mention the disappointment of giving a worthless Christmas gift to my wife).

You have to drench the towels & set the timer 15 minutes before you want them. It works great, but the towels wont stay hot for long. But thats typical with any towel warmer I've ever used.

We just had our hung today. We kept it up high enough for four towels to on the bottom portion and tw0 on the top partition. Because of it's width the towels needed to be triple folded. The towel warmer is not suppose to use much electricity. The bars are nice a warm even the uprights. We did have ours hard wired to the electric. I can let you know better tomorrow how well they work. We don't intend to turn it off unless we are away.John
