this was one of the most disappointing gifts i have given or received in my life (all 58 years of it!). you want dry warm towels? throw them in the dryer for 5 minutes. place them in the sunny window for 10 minutes. this piece of junk does not work. i gave it to my best friend and his wife (an outlay of 119 bucks!) and it now sits in the junk heap only weeks after christmas. it was meant as a christmas gift. don't buy anyting from this manufacturer! its a rip off. it doesn't work taking upwards to an hour and a half to half warm towels.
