Vertical bathroom radiators

    Hi, looking to put one of these in the bathroom due to space issues (not a fan of how they look but don't have the space for any other type)
    https://www.bestheating.ie/milano-bow-anthracite-d-bar-central-connection-heated-towel-rail-1269mm-x-500mm-61164

    My question is regarding towels. We currently have very few big radiators and we'd need a radiator to hang a towel on after a shower to dry it.(I prefer a fresh towel every shower but my partner doesn't)

    So how good are these for that purpose and how many can you hang on them typically

    Cant comment on how good they are but from the picture I would guess you would fit two towels on it at a time but there would be a bit of over lap. The other problem is it is 50cm wide where as most towels are a good bit wider than that so if you hung an 80cm wide towel then it is going to have to be scrunched up at the ends which may mean it doesnt dry as well or takes longer to dry.

    Regards space saving heating another option might be infra-red, they have units now that double up as a bathroom mirror as well as heating the room. It obviously doesnt dry towels but it will heat the room pretty well.

    You will get the same BTU from a 600x500 standard 22 rad.

    But nowhere to hang more than one small towel on it. Plus the radiator is somewhat in the walk in shower (see attached)
