The world of heated towel racks can be confusing. As the demand for these smart towel racks heats up, so does the variety of them on offer increase and customers become confused as to which one to buy.
The question you should ask yourself is: What makes a good towel rack? Is it the design? The number of towels it dries? The functionality? What is it made of? Or how much electricity it uses? Well, itās all of these. Letās take a look at the most popular types of heated towel racks on offer and help you decide which one is best.
The cheap and nasty
Beware of cheap substitutes and knock offs. Weāre nice so we will not name and shame.
It is important to research the materials used (inferior models tend to be manufactured from either chrome plated mild steel, powder coated mild steel or low grade stainless steel), if the heating technology is reliable, and if there are built in controllers (imperative that a heating device allows you to adjust the temperature!)
As they say, you get what you pay for.
The white elephant
Paperclips, snakes, ladders, hangers, donuts. These are just some of the current design inspirations for the new wave of heated towel racks. Such fun to look at, but are they practical?
Youād be surprised at how much engineering and design goes into a heated towel rack that is beautiful to look atĀ andĀ really does the job itās intended for – to dry your towels and stop bacterial growth while adding a touch of warmth.
The problem with so-called designer heated towel racks is not only their hefty price, theyāre often made purely with aesthetics in mind. Some are made of aluminum that doesnāt retain heat for long, or will be chrome-plated and rust before youāve paid off the heated towel rack.
The best of the best
You want Grade 304 stainless steel. Why? Itās incredibly rust-resistant and, being non-porous, no bacteria can stick to it. All it requires is a quick wipe to achieve a gorgeous-looking gleam – no special products as weāve seen recommended for other brands.
