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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The question you should ask yourself is: What makes a good towel rack? <\/strong>Is it the design? The number of towels it dries? <\/strong>The functionality? What is it made of? <\/strong>Or how much electricity it uses? Well, it\u2019s all of these. <\/strong>Let\u2019s take a look at the most popular types of heated towel racks on offer and help you decide which one is best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Beware of cheap substitutes and knock offs. We\u2019re nice so we will not name and shame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is important to research the materials used <\/strong>(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!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n As they say, you get what you pay for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 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?<\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019d be surprised at how much engineering and design goes into a heated towel rack that is beautiful to look at\u00a0and<\/em>\u00a0really does the job it\u2019s intended for<\/strong> – to dry your towels and stop bacterial growth while adding a touch of warmth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The problem with so-called designer heated towel racks is not only their hefty price, they\u2019re often made purely with aesthetics in mind. Some are made of aluminum that doesn\u2019t retain heat for long, or will be chrome-plated and rust before you\u2019ve paid off the heated towel rack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You want Grade 304 stainless steel. <\/strong>Why? It\u2019s 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 we\u2019ve seen recommended for other brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you invest in a heated towel rack, you\u2019re going to want a product warranty and good after-sale service. That\u2019s what we bring.\u00a015 years guarantee on the product material, 10 years on the heating element and 1 year on the PTSelect controller.<\/strong>\u00a0A final feather in our cap: our heated towel racks are assembled via a unique \u2018no welding\u2019 patented construction method that makes them fully serviceable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Having been in the business for decades<\/strong>, and seeing fads and inferior products come and go, we\u2019re confident that our heated towel racks are the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe cheap and nasty<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
