How long does it take to warm a bath towel?

Janet, it doesn't take too long once the warmer is heated up. Like an iron or oven, you have to turn it on and let it warm up for 15-30 minutes before you put your towel in. I usually get up, turn it on, plan my outfit, make coffee, etc. then put my towel in right before I take a shower. Then after the shower it's toasty warm. Overall, I've been pleased with it.

the cycle is about 10 minutes or so. the trick is to use the tower ASAP after the cycle is complete. too soon not warm, too late the condensation makes part of the towel wet and clammy and two towels in there the way its pictured is not going to work too well. all in all, i gave mine to my sister, hope she has better luck

About 10-15 minutes . But only the part of the towel touching the sides and bottom will be warm. Better than nothing . I have a heated towel rack in another part of the bathroom and would place these warmer towels in this device.... When it worked it was ok . Does not seem to be a really good one out there.

Not very long if you plan to take a shower like you would at home, maybe 3-5 min. Depends on how hot you like it.

Not too long...we turn it on when we wake up and put a towel on it. I make my bed and lay my clothes out and by the end of my shower (long showers 10-15 minutes ...my towel is toasty warm. I love it!

I warm 2 towels, and a hair twist towel plus my gown at the same time. I also use it to dry the towels and wash rags before turning it off. It does pull some BTU's so either use a timer or don't forget to turn off after about 30 min. Love my towel warmer!!

I can't say for sure. I usually turn it on before we soak our feet. We use it for pedicures at home. I place stones on the bottom rack and they are ready when the towels are ready. I'd like to say around 15 - 20 minutes. It works great!

Yes you can keep the towels warming in there all the time no problem. It takes about 5 minutes for them to get warm.

This machine has an on/off switch and features an internal-temperature control so that it does not over-heat. It will get to 150-160 degrees. The towels are immediately usable upon being retrieved from the cabinet and will be comfortable to the touch/on the skin.

I have had a toasty--not hot but toasty,similar to the towel racks in the UK connected to the heating system-- bath sheet after 10 minutes. I don't put in a folded or rolled towel but crumple it.

No, it does not put heat out into the room. And honestly, it takes about 30 minutes to heat a medium weight towel. It's attractive and well made, but I don't think I would buy it again.

Christine, in my experience this unit never got hot enough, even after an hour... I bought a rice steamer for $30. I put my damp towels in it, and in less than 10 minutes they are steaming hot! I realized that there is no need to spend a lot of money on a "towel warmer" when you can get what you need by repurposing a rice steamer. Really, it works beautifully. I can leave it on "keep warm" for hours...

We've had ours for several years. Little electric power used and it won't warm up the room. It just helps the towels to dry a little faster and gives them a little warmth when you grab it from a shower/bath. If you want just warm towels for shower, then turn it off after shower, and on again the morning/evening before your next shower.It takes several hours before the towel will feel warm.

This is an impossible questions to answer as it depends entirely on how many hours a day you have it on. If it is on continuously it uses 150 Watts per hour or 1,314 kWhrs (or units) of electricity per year. I have mine connected by a switch timer for about 3 hours a day from 6:30 am until 9:30 am. This reduce the units used to about 164 units per year. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes to warm up the towels to a nice temperature and then one of us generally gets up about 7 am and the other 7:30. It could go off earlier if we were consistent when we get up but some days it is an hour later but as we are both retired it is somewhat random. If your use a timer which also has days of the week programmed you may only need to keep it on for 2 hours day timed for hone you get up. On weekends you could set it for a later start. Please remember that this towel warmer does NOT have a thermostat. It is not needed. I left on deliberately for 6 oto 8 hours to see how hot it would get with and without the towels on it. It does get hot but not in my humble opinion hot enough to burn you if you touched itbut you will know about about it. I was wanted to know what happened to the towels it did not get any where close to stroking them. Sorry for the long answer but your question needed a broader answer than you were probably expecting.

Depending on how hot your water that you put in it is, anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes and it's still warm, then. Very nice product, we bought two of them. It's very malleable.

same as any other towel. wash and dry - and drying takes a MUCH shorter time.

I don't know the temperature exactly but they warm the towel but don't make it hot. Probably a little less warm than they warm the blankets to in hospitals. It does feel good if your bathroom is a chilly.
