10 Best Hot Towel Cabinet Reviews – Step by Step Comparison 2024

I have had this warmer for 9 months and love it! It is perfect for my healing room and warms my hand towels within 10 minutes!

I will update review as necessary, but so far, I am happy with this product. I bought it specifically to warm my bath towel for after my shower and it’s pure luxury! It can fit a bath sheet if you fold it in thirds lengthwise and then roll it. It comes out completely toasty just like I was hoping for. WAY better than our heated towel rack which only warmed the pieces of the towel that touched the rack before it quit working all together. If you live in a cold climate, having a warm towel is not so much an indulgence as a necessity. It really makes showering not nearly as dreadful. Also, this is great to warm pads for therapeutic purposes, for sore muscles, injuries, and the like. Will advise if it quits working as described.

It is working as expected so far. I usually set up about and hour to a half an hour early for clients, so I haven't had any problems with how quickly it warms up. I like the two trays so I can separate wet compresses from warm towels. Even though it says it's a mini, it does hold plenty of wet and dry towels for at least 1-2 body treatments at a time depending on what you need.

I am so happy that I bought this towel warmer. It gets the towels hot within about 15 minutes, and it is small enough that I am able to keep it on my dresser. I use the warm towels for facials and relaxation, and this little cabinet does exactly what it promises.

I experience blepharitis, which is inflammation of the eyelids, secondary to sub-optimal oil production. Mainstay of treatment is warm compresses. Symptoms are worse first thing in the morning, and by the time I make my way to the kitchen and warm a washcloth in the microwave, my eyes are already in misery. I keep wet washcloths in this device next to my bed so they are warm when I wake up and make opening my eyes and getting out of bed way more comfortable. Functions as advertised, no issues one month in.

I saw my spa had one of these and I loved getting the hot towels after a massage. I was so happy to find the exact same one on Amazon. The towels come out steaming hot. It is big enough to fit 4 face towels and 2-3 hand towels at one time with room. If you put towels in slightly damp they come out hot, if you put them in wetter them come out steaming. I have had it a few weeks and no problems yet.

Works just as advertised! Be sure to dampen the towels first and you will be rewarded with steaming hot towel. Do not forget to use the tongs which are provided to remove the towels. I have had the best hot towel shave to date thanks to this little device, love it!

After reading all of the reviews, I toyed in my mind if I should get it. I never write reviews but I feel like I owe one. The following reasons were why I wasn't sure if I should purchase this item. 1. Poor quality. 2. Cleaning/water usage. 3. Size. This product is what it is. It's extremely light weight. It's a plastic "strainer" for a lack of a better term that sits on top of a "bowl" that you fill with water. It reaches extreme temperature, and comes up through the holes to steam the towels. The lid is also plastic. So you have three pieces that come together. No they are not heavy duty. But so far I have no complaint with them being that I want to travel with this thing. It serves it's purpose extremely well. I read a complaint that it's a pain because you had to clean it and fill it up with water. I don't find this being so strenuous. There's not deep crevices that makes this task ever so unbearable. Get a cleaning product, swipe, voila! Get a cup and fill her up! Easy peasy. Another complaint was the size. "I could barely get six towels in" I was in awe when I rolled them up and had room for three more towels and got the lid on perfect. Before I put them in I feel I should mention, I got them wet and wrung them out. They were steamy within minutes. If you purchase this, don't expect it to surpass your wildest dreams. It gets the job done extremely well! Burned my thumb on my first try, don't snicker at the tongs. Your fingers will thank you. I can't think of any major complaints for this product, however, this is what I needed.

I am in long term care. I need to warm towels every evening to wrap around my legs and it works perfect. But then as an extra treat I can have warm towels for after my shower. Someone teased me about living like a princess.

I was really on the fence about buying this given the mixed reviews. However I decided to give it a go as there don't seem to be other comparable bin-style towel warmers.

I was prepared for the initial smell based upon other reviewers' comments (thank you for that!). It smells like a new heating unit for about the first week. Now, however, after using it daily for a month, it does not smell.

The towel warmer has a nice capacity and fits one large bath towel easily. Since it heats from the outside, it is best to drop in an unfolded towel loosely and it does a nice job of warming the whole towel. You can also warm a bath robe, or anything else that you want that fresh out of the dryer feeling.

The warmer warms up very quickly. It has a auto shut off as well as a warning light so that you know that it is hot that stays on for a bit until it cools down.

My usage involves throwing a towel in and turning it on a few minutes before I am about to take a shower. By the time I get out, it is perfect and warm.

I will update this review over time on my experience to share with others both if it continues to work well or if I run into any problems.

12/21/16 - I've now been using this towel warmer for almost 6 months. Still works well.

6/1/17 - Have been using this towel warmer every day for almost a year. Works great and still love it!

Love it! I use this product in my massage room and it works wonderfully! It can easily hold about 8-10 towels (approximately dish towel sized) and I could probably squeeze a few more in if necessary. My towels get super hot within about 20 minutes. The door opens and closes quietly. I would definitely recommend this product!

I have been through several towel warmers at our office. We use them in our massage wing. This one is by far the best yet... I'm hoping it lasts. The towels feeder super warm and it holds 10 rolled hands towels easily. Definitely recommend.

Working perfectly so far! Fingers crossed. A bit stinky but I throw some essential oils on my towels and it’s fine! Love the consistency in temperature!

Have had for two months. Warms towels and robes,clothes, etc to a toasty warm. Does not have any heating element odor in the beginning when used or later into the cycle (so far). By far the best quality is the choice of minutes 15, 30, 45 or 60 for your items to remain warm. This timing works very well and heats the whole way through the cycle of time. I had purchased 4 of the basic Brookstone white towel warmer for myself and gifts and they only lasted for 1.5- 2 years. This one far exceeds the function of the first one I had; warmth, time cycle, and no heating element odor. This one is a $20 or $30 increase of purchase however it is worth every penny of it. Don't waste your money on the other one. This one is the best way to get a warm bear hug in the dead of winter or anytime you want one.

THIS IS PERFECT!! Love using this in the winter to put blankets in, that way when you curl up on the couch your blankets are warm! Also perfect for getting out of the hot-tub in the cool evening or out of the shower!

I’ve had two free standing towel warming racks. First one burned out after 2+ years and the second one lasted 6+ years. They work okay but take 60 – 90 minute to get towels warm. Racks are convenient because you heat & dry the towels on the same rack. I was looking for another towel warmer and I found Brookstone. I read the reviews and decided to try it, due to mostly good reviews and the price - about $126. The free standing towel warming racks I bought (Warmrails & Myson) cost well over $230 each.
This towel warmer is so much better than my previous towel warming racks. I can heat the normal bath towel in 15 minutes - - and it’s much warmer then the towels from my towel racks. Note: You heat dry towels and this unit will not dry your towels – you must hang them up to dry. I found fluffing the towel up helps get the entire towel warm. After 15 minutes I measured the heat in the tub at 185 – 189 degrees. The bath towel was 135 degrees. I think you can call that hot.

Hey guys today I'm here at my business still getting set up and everything for those of you who don't know. It's like a spa business skincare esthetics and whatnot so facials body treatments waxing sunless tanning all that kind of stuff makeup. I'm gonna have a beauty bar and also a boutique as well small business and right now I am here testing my equipment. So right now I am testing my steamer and it seems to be working I've already tested my Meg lamp and everything.

Oh yeah this games coming out. So I'm gonna turn off Oh tom what ozone is see. It look how much more you can see that steam come out now ozone steam is actually sanitized team you see that light come on that's ultraviolet light. Basically ultraviolet light which sterilizes the steam. So it cleanses your pores really well so for people who are prone to acne breakouts.

Whatever this will really clean out your face, that's why they recommend facials once a month. It'll sterilize all the bacteria out of it and everything like that. So again when I turn that off look at the amount of steam that comes out you can't see it as much okay but this does work. So gonna call dis let it go for a little bit they stuck the timer for 20 minutes right now.

It's 10 it takes about eight minutes to heat up and start going so you always want to you know get that set up before you're ready to use the steam on your client. So you have to time that out already try it out my mag lamp which works. I don't want this too late get on my sheets but okay so, I have my bedding already for someone and I laid down a towel just on the head part okay. So other than that right now I am also testing out my towel warmer as you can see the power button is on usually towel warmers you can't adjust the temperature.

They're kind of set at their own temperature so it's there's just an on and off switch this towel warmer that steam is getting me and we don't push that back actually. Okay all right now it's getting the bed hold on okay it's probably okay so now I'm talking about the towel warmer so what was I saying so yes it basically monitors itself heat wise and you just have your rolled-up towel.

Which I am only testing one towel right now just to make sure it works. I don't want to like get all my towels wet and dirty and whatnot but so I haven't rolled towels up here oh and I also put all those towels that I washed up in my cupboards. So as you can see they're all nicely folded and my cupboards so, I have towels and the first one and then product and then the other two are sheets flat and fitted and so this towel warmer though it has an ultraviolet light sanitizer which looks like it turned itself off for now. All right it takes a little while for it to heat up I guess but yeah I can definitely feel you know the temperature.

My towel is warm it is not super hot but I turned it on like 10 minutes ago I can take quite a while to get pretty hot so, right now this is just a hand towel that I used to wipe up my distilled water mess when I was pouring it into the steamer so and also in the bottom of here I put my those little wash cloth type towels with a little hanging knotch that I accidentally got from Ikea. I put all those in my bottom drawer for hand towels for my use and then I put all my face cradle covers back behind those because they don't really need to be folded and they don't really need a lot of space either so, what else have I done today in here. So far I'm gonna do my clothes as you can see I brought five boxes of clothes which is not all my number. 300 this is like less than 1/4 of my inventory but I'm just trying to get a feel for how I want things that's all I could fit in my car actually - because I had other stuff.

I was bringing I also have the beauty of our you know the cords are an issue right now I'm gonna have to go get some kind of other adapter or cord to get rid of some of these cords hanging around right now that looks really bad in the camera got light in the middle but I put one of those lights on this table and then I put them near there for those makeup area and then we'll have the skincare area where you can like sent products you know. So if you have a body product I'll be having organic lotion bases shower gels whatever bath gel and also a body spray that you can send customized with your own fragrance essential oil whatever there and then the mineral makeup where you can color your makeup.

How you like so that's why they get a mirror and then the other person doesn't really need a mirror because it's just you know not necessary for you to need a mirror when you're sending product because you don't need to look at your skin color face or whatever.

So now I'm going to attempt to get the racks more secure here and then hang up some of my inventory. I don't know that's probably about and I got this cord though 15 foot extension cord and it was not very expensive at all. Let's just go so I'm hoping that I can get a light and then run the 15-footer along the doorway into the dressing room because that dressing room is way way too dark right now

Hi my name is Roxanne Dirksen and I'm the owner of beauty therapy and I just wanted to give you a few tips about how to use a hot towel warmer. This is a hot towel warmer it's also called a hot towel cabinet but we sell them through our online store at beauty therapy and this isn't very simple to use. You turn it on or you turn it off it's got a three prong plug and it has two shelves this is a great size for using it a massage therapy practice or a small day spa even a dentist's office or a small restaurant.

You have two shelves and when this is turned on it heats up very quickly well. It takes about 20 minutes to a half an hour to heat up your towels at the beginning of the day you can clean it very easily. You pull up the tray in the bottom and this is where the moisture collects as you have your heater turned on during the day. So let me show you how to prepare your towels so, now if you were working in an office or a restaurant where you wanted to use say small just face cloths or hand towels. You just wet these in a sink of water and you can roll them up like this and you snap them inside your hot towel heater like that.

If you're wanting to use larger towels so you can your clients to say take the oil off after they've had a massage or just to warm their back or their feet or use these for other spa treatments. You just warm you just roll up the towel like this and you stack it in your towel feeder like this. Now this is a fairly large towel that would actually extend for the whole entire back of someone's body but you don't necessary. I have to use towels that big. Now I have some essential oils here and the reason why I have those is because if you add that the oils to your water you can actually set your towels. So you wanted to add some lemongrass or some orange or nice citrus oils to your to scent your towels or some lavender.

You could offer those to your clients and say after therapy treatment if they wanted to wipe their hands or wipe their face that would be a nice addition to your practice. Also you can use the hot towel warmer to keep your stone. So if you're using hot stones in your practice but you're not actually doing hot stone massage you can actually heat some stones. You can sit them or make and wrap them in a towel like this and you can place them in your hot towel heater and you can also heat your oils this wall could just lie in here like this. I prefer not to use plastic in the heater because when you heat up the oil and plastic. It's just about some of the transference depending on the kind of plastic bottle that you're using. So you can leave your hot stones your oils your hot towels in the cabinet. You can stack it full and during the day you can use them and throw them in your laundry bin. So that's about everything the only thing is when you are using hot stones in the thing.

It's good to be conscious of the temperature of the hot stones when they're coming out so that was another good idea - just a tip to keep your hot stone in a wrap towel. So that you don't burn yourself when you're taking it out as well you need to be aware that the temperature of the stone should probably be about a hundred and twenty degrees between 120 and 130 degrees and you want to if you if you feel as though. It's too hot you just plunge the hot stone just very briefly into a bowl of cold water and that'll cool off the stove very quickly and then you'll be able to put it against the skin of your client. So I hope you've enjoyed that and think about buying it purchasing a hot Italian it's a great idea and it really helps your practice.

You can see that we've removed the rack and the tray above the heating element I'm going to make sure you clean the heating element with vinegar or an acidic cleanser now I just want to see alittle bit of discoloration on your heating element but there should not be any buildup when you're cleaning the heating element you also want to be sure to clean the tube that's located in the front panel of the unit ok.

So in order to get to the tube in the front panel you simply remove the two screws on either side just remove it I've already removed it for okay next thing you're going to do is slide this too carefully out of these little elbow pieces.

Now you're gonna do is just firmly press and roll with your fingers to break up any any substance that gets stuck in there and then you can flush it with running water you'll just simply replace it make sure that it is tight so there are no leaks and then you can replace the cover and resume using your unit
