Bathroom Towel Rack Options For A Contemporary BathroomBathroom Towel Rack Ideas In Steel and Chrome from Gatco, Polder, Neu Home and YouRemodelOne of the essentials of any bathroom is to have somewhere to keep the towels that are to be used immediately. It is also helpful to have other towels ready and waiting for later use, as the towels you are using become soiled and soggy. While towel hooks or a single towel bar may suffice for your immediate needs, a linen cabinet in the bathroom or some sort of racking can provide the back up supply of towels. A bathroom towel rack, or hotel towel rack, is designed to stack your towels in readiness for future use. Some are designed to perform both functions, in other words be used for storage of spare towels and for keeping the towels currently in use. Have a good think about the purpose for which you are buying the rack, and then find a towel rack that fits your needs. There are plenty of designs to choose from. Many of the bathroom towel rack designs you will come across are made of chrome, that most popular of bathroom metal finishes. You can usually choose between freestanding towel racks or those which have to be wall mounted. Again, think carefully before deciding. If you buy one that is freestanding, at least it is easy to change its position if you change your mind. That is not so with a rack you have already fixed to the wall. Bathroom and hotel towel racks are mostly modestly priced. You can find a 3 shelf hotel towel rack in chrome for about $25, although I am sure you could pay a lot more for higher quality furniture. Gatco, Polder, Neu Home and Aquatico are well known brands in the towel rack market, although research will undoubtedly uncover many more. Gatco have a reputation for high quality, and this is reflected in the Gatco 4297 Latitude II Minimalist towel rack, in satin nickel or chrome. This comes in two sizes: 24 inch and 18 inch, and is priced just under $100. Much lower down the price range is the Polder Bathroom Wall Shelf with 2 towel racks. This is in chrome, and sells on Amazon for less than $30. This looks like it will do the job well enough at a low cost. In a similar price range, from YouRemodel, you will find their 3 guest size Chrome Hotel Towel Rack, which offers more storage space than the Polder, so expect a lesser quality but value for money nonetheless. From Neu Home, you can drop to an even lower price Neu Home Acrylic 3 Bar Towel Rack with bottom shelf that sells for under $15. This has a chrome finish, 3 towel bars, and a glass shelf. For something a bit different, and darker, also from YouRemodel, there is the 20" Oil Rubbed Bronze Paris Hotel or Train Rack style Towel Shelf with hooks. This piece of wall mounted, solid steel shelving has a distinctive oil rubbed finish that will certainly get noticed.
