  [Request][Bathroom]Anyone know about some good quality towel warmers?

  Not sure if you’re still looking but a few years ago I had a roommate whom I shared a bathroom with and she had brookstone towel warmer. that thing was the best. Man do I miss that towel warmer—never in my life did I think I’d need one and after moving out of her apartment I began to miss the feeling of a warm towel after a shower lol. Definitely recommend that one! Though was just looking online and they might’ve discontinued the specific product she had 🥲 so if you happen to know a good towel warmer pls do share

  What product would you seriously stockpile if you found out they weren't going to sell it anymore?

  Just FYI—plenty of barely-used Brookstone Nap Blankets on EBay as well as a few brand new/still in package ones.

  I didn’t get another brookstone nap blanket and haven’t been able to find a replacement and will regret it forever

  Best Air Mattress? One that doesn't break like my last one did!

  My father in law randomly got us a Brookstone 24” air bed from bed bath and beyond, I think. It’s amazing, holds a LOT of weight and doesn’t deflate overnight.

  Mug Warmer (hot plate?)

  I'm not sure a mug warmer is going to be a BIFL item, as the heater element is something that will go through wear and tear and eventually degrade sooner or later. That being said, look into the stainless steel one that Brookstone used to carry...you can still buy used ones fairly cheaply on eBay. They're much classier looking and better built than the cheap plastic Mr Coffee or $5 bin mug warmers out there. Alternatively, consider looking into simply a small heating plate, which is all a mug warmer is.

  Recommendations for heated blanket?

  Same! Two months since your comment, and the original post is from a year ago, but I'm interested since my heated throw just died, I'm searching for a new one...it should be a simple online purchase. While it's great that we all have the luxury of reviews galore these days, I'm finding that scrolling through endless reviews (good, bad, or indifferent) complicates the search! I've been searching for the best-rated heated throw since 9 am (it's now 1:16 pm). Each review is contrary to the last. The throw is amazing/the throw is crap. The throw doesn't heat/the throw heats quickly, the throw sheds + doesn't launder well/the throw is soft + fluffy + launders beautifully... The comments on this post are helpful (searching for new/old stock is a great suggestion). The Berkshire recommendation is a good one, too (still available at Costco, but they only had white). My searches have revealed that many are disappointed with Sunbeam. While the name recognition is there, users mention how cheaply made the heated throws are, and even if it heats at first, will stop working soon after. Beautyrest, Brookstone, Serta, Westinghouse, and Black & Decker seem to have better reviews than the Amazon/Bed Bath & Beyond, Walmart-esque no-name heated throws but there are so many conflicting reviews! I don't know if some of the reviewers are extremely easy to please (and the others are all impossible to please), or if the various heated throw manufacturers have no quality control in place at all (one working heated throw off the assembly line is followed by a dud...and so on)?? I think I'm about to buy the Serta Malea Shaggy Heated Throw Blanket or the Brookstone Oversized Heated Throw Blanket or the Westinghouse Heated Throw Blanket (has the built-in, flat control), or the Sunbeam Royal Faux Fur Heated Throw (all on Amazon). Each one has simultaneous very good + very bad reviews. No grey area with any of them?! At least Amazon has a very generous return policy so if whichever one I go with doesn't perform well, it goes back. WHY is this difficult?! Since you commented two months ago, I'm curious what you ended up with?
