how long does it take the towel to get warm? Is there any indication that the temperature has reached to the given level?

I am not quite sure how long it takes, but I place warm towels in the towel warmer about a half hour before I give a facial and they are quite hot. There is no temperature indicator. I will say the towels get very hot so you need to shake them out before applying them to a clients face. But you would check the temp anyway no matter what warmer you use. Hope this is helpful

I use the warmer in a clinic setting. It doesn't take long to heat up but there isn't a temp control so I find I have to turn it off at times because the towels get too hot. I am using damp towels and usually turn it on 30 min prior to seeing patients. then turn it off and on as needed. I love it though. does what I need it to

Hi Krittiya, I have never timed it but put the towels in warm and they are ready to go from the first facial on. What I love about this cabi is the on/off switch'es are separate, and is very compact. I have been very pleased with this hot towel cabi.

About an hour if your wet the towel with hot water. If you use a dry towel, I'm not sure. There isn't an indication light or anything. It has a funky smell too.

The warmer itself is fully heated within a few minutes. I set up for my facials about 30 minutes before the first one and they are hot enough by the time I start. There is no temperature indicator on it.

Maybe...probably. If the unit is in a weather protected area (mostly NOT raining) it would be a nice way to warm towels. Here's the thing though (and has nothing to do with being outside or inside) you won't be able to load it with big towels. Regular sized bath towels are okay and even at that...only two at most. The warming function shuts off after about 30 mins so plan accordingly. I have been satisfied so far.

Not real long. About 45 min. Maybe if you wrap plate in foil it would stay warm longer.

Honestly I haven't timed it but it didn't seem long. You have to lie on the bed to feel the heat in my opinion. It's difficult to feel the warmth with your hands.

It starts to get warm in 2-3 minutes, but 10-15 minutes makes the towels toasty, so turn it on ahead of time.

The unit warms up in about five minutes, but it takes a lot longer, 30 minutes usually, to get get a fairly thick towel nice and toasty.

I have never used a towel warmer on my Fina Ultra Aborbent towels...but I do dry them in the dryer, after being washed in warm water, for a short period of time. They look/feel 'just like new' being used daily for 2 years.

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...

it should take about 30 seconds to get hot not warm but hot there is a setting a little round rotating sleeve you turn it one direction or the other and the handle should pump while you're moving the mark if its not producing any steam send the product back

Don't know the exact temperature. It all depends on who u will be treating, diabetics, elderly? The towels are warm but not hot. I would contact the company for specifics.

It doesn't get very hot. It makes our pajamas comfortably warm when stepping out of shower. Thick towels and items hardly get warm. Its best used for thin items.

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.

The warmer heats up very quickly, within half an hour. It takes about another hour to really warm the towels. I have forgotten to turn it on first thing in the morning and have had warm-ish towels within 20 minutes.

No, there is no temperature indicator. But, the towels are quite hot and are best when moist.

Infared I think. We would refill in the morning. I never really thought the length of time to use warm towels. You'll be able to send back if it's not what you want it works just fine

Hard to say. I only got to use my towel warmer ONCE on Christmas morning, and then it quit working altogether. The burden is now on me to ship it back, by mail, in a suitable box with appropriate postage, packing slip, etc. What a HASSLE (not to mention the disappointment of giving a worthless Christmas gift to my wife).

It does take about a min to warm up. Mine can get extremely hot. I set it to 60.
