Whether you're looking for a warm, fluffy towel post-shower or you want to create a spa-like atmosphere right in your home, a towel warmer is a luxurious appliance that everyone deserves. We've researched and evaluated over 30 different towel warmers to help you find the one that's perfect for your bathroom setup.
As much as we love finding products that are the best of the best, there's not a singular perfect towel warmer that'll work for every bathroom. Some towel warmers need to be hardwired to function, while others need to be plugged into a nearby outlet. Our list only includes towel warmers that use radiant heat to warm your towels since they're the most inexpensive. But, it's worth mentioning that some towel warmers use water-based or hydronic heat to warm your towels.
Whether a wall-mounted option works best for you or you're looking into a freestanding, canister, large-size, or small-sized warmer, we have you covered. Just make sure that you don't purchase a hard-wired warmer if you don't plan on hiring a contractor or installing it yourself!
Read on and cozy up with our top towel warmer picks.
Short on patience? This warmer's rapid-fire heating system means no waiting for warm towels.
Plus, this unit is made out of highly durable stainless steel, so it'll stick by your side for the long haul. It's large enough to hang two bath sheets and a hand towel, but it lacks an auto-shutoff, so we recommend pairing it with a timer.
This modern towel warmer is made from stainless steel and comes in a mirrored or black finish. It features a built-in timer that’ll shut the heater off after 2 or 4 hours.
Besides its generous 2-year warranty, we like that the towel warmer’s 10 curved bars are rust- and water-resistant. Not to mention, there’s plenty of room to hang, heat, and dry towels for a family of four.
Best of all, it heats up to an optimal temperature in just 5 minutes — so by the time you’re finished with your shower or bath, you’ll have a warm and cozy towel.
This towel warmer from Jerdon is just 25 inches tall and 18 inches wide — making it the best towel warmer for folks that have smaller-sized bathrooms. The wall-mounted towel warmer comes in a chrome or nickel finish, and it can be plugged into or hardwired to your wall. Because of its smaller size, you can only dry or warm a single towel on its five bars.
If you're in search of a product that'll stint bacteria growth and keep your towels from smelling funky, consider the ROADVIEW towel dryer. It's an excellent option for folks who live in environments with intense humidity.
Rather than using warming bars to heat and dry your towels, this model is essentially an oversized air dryer. It blows warm air on your towels between 1 and 4 hours, and even includes a UV light to sterilize them. The dryer also has a smart app you can install to control it remotely with your smartphone or with your Alexa or Google-Assistant powered smart speaker.
Towel warmers are without a doubt luxury goods that don’t run cheap — especially if you plan to purchase a wall-mounted warmer. With its sub-$150 price point, the Tangkula towel warmer is the exception to the rule. It can warm up your towels in less than 10 minutes and has ten polished stainless steel bars to heat multiple towels simultaneously.
The towel warmer is equipped with a 71-inch power cable on its bottom-left corner and a power switch on its right side. Unfortunately, it doesn’t offer an automatic shutoff feature, but it's pretty energy-efficient, using about the same amount of energy as a light bulb.
Measuring in at 40 inches tall, the Ancona towel warmer is equipped with more than a dozen bars to warm even the largest of bath sheets. Whether you want to heat up multiple towels before bathtime, use it to dry towels after a day by the pool, or hang a couple of bathrobes on it, this elegant-looking warmer will get anything toasty warm.
This option is made from stainless steel and requires a hardwired electrical connection. Unfortunately, it lacks a timer, which is a little surprising given its steep price.
This towel warmer is highly rated, partly because of its unique design that's ideal for small spaces. It has four swivel-hinge units that can rotate 180 degrees, which aids the drying process for wet towels. (Though it may not be the best towel warmer for families with children who may attempt to hang from its swinging bars.)
This warmer measures 25 by 37 inches and heats up to a stellar 136 degrees Fahrenheit.
This towel warmer resembles a waste bin more than an attractive rack, but it’s spacious enough for two oversized towels or even a bathrobe. Its utilitarian design blends right into your bathroom decor, and its larger size keeps warm, fluffy towels at the ready for multiple bathers.
If you're looking to spend a bit less on a bucket-style warmer, we also recommend the Haven Towel Warmer, which is exclusive to Bed Bath & Beyond.
You don't always have to splurge to have the luxury of a towel warmer in your home. This versatile option stands on its own and doesn't require any expensive construction to use.
Thanks to the towel warmer's low height (38 inches), it's easy to drape towels onto any of its bars and have them be conveniently within arm's reach as you get out of the tub, too.
Its lightweight, 12-pound build also makes it a breeze to move around your bathroom. Just make sure it's powered off before moving, though, as it can reach temperatures of up to 149 degrees Fahrenheit.
This plug-in option with eight bars can heat two large towels or robes and is designed to run all day long. There’s no need to worry about a timer which means that it’ll always be ready on your schedule.
It will look good in any home, especially considering that it's available in three finishes: brushed stainless, matte black, and a mirror finish.
If you're looking for warmth but also need a spot to set your folded towels, check out this towel warmer from ANZII. It's one of the most inexpensive options that have a shelf on its top for stowing towels. Although we would have liked to see an integrated timer with the ANZZI, we appreciate that it is backed by a lifetime warranty.
The warmer offers plenty of room for two large bath towels and heats up quickly. Plus, the on/off switch is discreetly hidden on the underside of the bar.
Pottery Barn's towel warmer features a moisture-resistant finish, making it a good pick for tiled bathrooms with walk-in showers. The towel warmer is made from stainless steel, and it’s available in chrome or brushed nickel finishes. Pottery Barn also sells a matte black towel warmer, but starting at $799, it's even more expensive.
