First impression? This matte black heated towel rack looks like it belongs in a high-end spa. The stainless steel feels sturdy, and the 4-bar design is sleek without being bulky.
The real magic happens when you turn it on. Within minutes, my towels go from damp to deliciously warm. That first post-shower wrap feels like being hugged by a cloud. I set the timer for 2 hours (perfect for my morning routine) and forget about it.
Installation was easier than I expected. The included hardware worked fine for my drywall, though I did use my own anchors for extra peace of mind. The temperature controls are intuitive - I keep mine at 140°F which is the sweet spot between warmth and energy efficiency.
Unexpected bonus: It's become my secret weapon for houseguests. Seeing their faces light up when they discover warm towels? Priceless. The UL certification and waterproof rating mean I don't worry about safety, even in my steamy bathroom.
Only quibble: It makes regular towel racks feel obsolete. Once you've experienced this, there's no going back to cold, damp towels. Worth every penny for this daily dose of luxury.
