Bar or hook - clicky poll

We have a small homeand share one full bath. It's not a large room and we decided not to keep shower towels for 4 in there. We keep the girls' towels in our room on a drying rack. I hate it. 

Id like to get something for their own rooms. I use an over the door bar for my towels. Dh uses a long bar in our master half bath and his towel can be fully open to dry. The towel must be folded in half to fit on the over the door one but it does dry.

Do you prefer bars like I have or would you get a line of hooks or a single or maybe two hooks instead for their rooms?

Re: Bar or hook - clicky poll

  • I voted hook. W uses the upstairs bathtub and his towel hangs on a hook. We share the downstairs bathroom and my towel hangs on a hook on the back of the door & J hangs his over the shower rod to dry.

  • For a bedroom i would get a double hook that hangs over the door for each girls room.
  • We have a free standing towel warmer that also dried..- am currently looking in a way to mount it in the bathroom  i am going for something halfway down the window, over the radiator and to help block any drafts we have  i hate the way hooks put stress on the fabric

  • Genevieve has a thing of 4 hooks on the back of her door. Is that a bar?  She keeps 2 coats there and her towel on the other 2. 

    For our bath towels we each hang them on an over the door hook. I recently discovered the quick drying towels and that's all we have now.

  • No - the bar is a set if three bars that hang from the top of the door down. The hooks are on a single bar and are lined up horizontal. 

    I found hook sets at target in the dollar spot for $2.50. They might be flimsy but it's worth $5 to try it

  •  edit... just re-read your post and realized you wanted something for the girls not yours....sorry.

     

    I can gaurantee you my bathroom is probably just as small if not smaller than yours. It svcks.

    H found me a small heated towel dryer that I hang off the towel bar. that way my folded in half towel will dry. I used to have the same problem with the towels not drying. 

    How many electrical outlets do you have in the bathroom? If you only have one ( like we do) we got a "y" splitter so one is for towel warmer one is for nightlight and one for whatever...razor, blow dryer etc. It's like being in a spa with a warm towel.

    I keep it on all year round but it does have a swtch to shut it in the summer if you want.

  • My boys towels are single-use before wash. Its just easier to grab a new one each time. So I throw them over the side of the hamper and when they dry I dump them in there. Once a week or two I wash um all. Same thing for wash clothes.
