Hello,
my bathroom is almost finished, but currently there is only a temporary towel rack installed, which we would now like to replace. Unfortunately, I’m having trouble navigating the market and was hoping to get some advice here.

As far as I understand, we need one that runs on electricity. It is not intended to heat the room, but only to occasionally dry the towels. There is no water connection available for this, so we need one with an electric heating element.
It can be roughly up to 1.5 m wide (5 feet), height does not matter.

Do you have any recommendations that would suit my bathroom? (Unfortunately, I don’t have a picture of the exact spot right now, but here you can see the general color scheme.)

Regards

Hello,

There are so many models available online! They are called electric towel warmers or electric bathroom radiators, and they come in various colors and sizes. Just search online and choose the one that suits your needs.

My experience: I don’t need this. Not because I don’t have it—we have two of these (one in each bathroom) and only used them briefly at the very beginning of winter. Since then, they have “only” served as towel racks (and they are simply too expensive for that). In our next house, they definitely won’t be included.

Although that wasn’t the question, I have had the same experience and will not install it in the house. We have had one in our rental apartment for 4 years, and we have never turned it on even once.

Do your towels dry on their own? In our apartment (bathroom in the basement), they unfortunately don’t dry without some help, especially in the summer!

How do people manage without heated towel rails? 🙂

Heat and ventilate the room, hang towels on a bar.

For choosing a model, check out the shop at reuter.de and filter by the product you want. There are many well-known manufacturers offering various control options.
