For early shifts and pre-dawn commuters

On the clock before sunrise? Warm towel anyway.

Warehouse at 6, the first train, the opening shift. Your alarm goes off in the dark and the house is still cold. HotShift is a 20L heated towel warmer: put a dry towel in, press start when your alarm goes off, and it warms while you shower. Step out to a warm towel, not a cold one.

Early-shift worker in his coat before sunrise with a warm towel over his shoulder, HotShift towel warmer nearby

5 a.m., as it is now

Dark house, thermostat still on its night setting. The shower's the only warm part, so you stay in a minute too long, then speedrun drying off with a towel that's been hanging in a cold room all night. Every winter weekday.

How it works

  1. Towel in.

    Drop one dry towel in, opened up and loose.

  2. Press start.

    When your alarm goes off. Pick High and a 20 to 90-minute run.

  3. Coffee, shower.

    It warms while you get ready, then switches itself off when the run ends.

  4. Step out.

    Wrap up warm, unplug it, head out the door.

Safe use. Dry cotton or cotton-blend items only. Keep it on a dry, level spot away from the tub, shower and sink, and unplug it after each use (maker's rules).
