Any HS dealers have this towel rack in stock? I'm curious how much they sell for. I had something else in mind but my wife likes this one better. I'm sure it's not cheap.

They're actually made by the same company as the Cover Valet cover lifter.

If you're interested, I have one that I brought in just to take a look at. I'm not really interested in carying them and could let you have this one at a nice deal. PM me if you'd like it..... Bill, I appologige if this is "spam"............. I'd just like to clear the thing out :P

I've been on a search for a towel tree that would rival a Holy Grail quest! That one looks pretty good -- is it wood or metal? Is it black? How does either wood or metal hold up outside in the weather?
My local dealers sell a heavy plastic model that seems real good but it's over $100 and I just can't bring myself to pay that much for what is basically a friggen coat rack!
Dr Spa, if Gombo doesn't take the one you're offering I might be interested. Do you know how tall it is? Is it fairly heavy and weighted at the bottom so it won't fall over?
-
I bought one myself. It is metal - maybe aluminum?? Not really sure what metal. It is not too heavy, but heavy enough to where I've never had it fall over. The way the legs are spread out at the bottom keeps it very stable. I want to say I paid about $55 for mine. It was worth it. I never knew where to put my towel. It always ended up with a soaked corner from slipping into the hot tub.
-
So what's the word, Gombo?
-
I PM'ed him to see if he bought the one from Dr Spa. If not, I WANT IT!!! ;D
-
I still have it.. It's the bronze color, not pewter..... It's $50 including UPS ground. If you want, I can next day air it for 1/2 the normal cost of shipping (extra cost to ya).........

Thanks for the link Chad.
No problem. :) Did you decide to get Doc's or did you order your own? Have you recieved it yet and how do you like it?
-
I ended up ordering from http://www.justspas.com/cgi-bin/checkitout/checkitout.cgi?justspasSTORE:CKIE:prod6003+ for $49.95 with free shipping. Doc realized his was missing the hardware. For $50 it's worth a try.....

I just bought one too!! The pewter one! Thanks!

OK, here's a one week review. I'm happy so far with the Spa Side Towel Tree rack. It's not very heavy since it made from aluminum tubing but so far it hasn't blown over yet. It gets pretty windy this time of the year where I live.
Anyway, for $49.95 it seems like a good deal and my wife is happy since it matches our patio furniture. My only complaint is that the directions were the worst I have ever experienced. I'm an engineer and it took almost an hour to put together. The person that wrote the instructions should be shot.

We sell Hanamint furniture - so I have a towel tree from them. I love it! We don't sell many of them, but they are very nice. It is cast aluminum, but it has a cast iron weight built into the base. If you live in a high wind area, or want a fancy piece to go with cast iron or cast aluminum furniture, check these out.
We sell them for around $170 - delivered to the local area free. I don't know if you could find them locally - but it would be worth a look. They are very well built, and can be set with the rods at 90 degrees or parallel to each other. There is an oring in the tube where it pivots to keep crud out, and the finish is excellent. We chose the color to match our patio set, but I think they are available in other colors. http://www.hanamint.com/gallery1.htm Try to find a local dealer.
Sorry, but the picture is not to scale. The towell tree is about 52" tall.

Gombo - I'm cracking up b/c we received the same one two days ago and my husband was cursing the whole time trying to put it together. The directions were HORRIBLE!! It was explaining it as if everything was lettered but not one piece was lettered was yours?? My husband takes apart cranes and puts them back together and even he was was ready to explode. He actually wound up bending one of the tubes so it's not balanced now but I stuck a rock under that leg and it's fine for now. I like the way it looks next to the tub and it does the job but I'm sure we'll get something else down the road. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that we agree - the person who wrote the instructions should be shot.

I put 6 of those things together, I want to torture the author before he is shot. Actually they are made in china & something must have got screwed up in the translation.

Bohms, the instructions suck big time. The first time I put it together I had the same problem where the legs were not level. You can take it apart and re-assemble it so the legs are level. The spacer blocks have to be positioned correctly since the holes are offset. If they are in the wrong orientation the legs will not be level--this part was not included in the instructions.
I'm sure your husband can figure it out. I'm glad I wasn't the only person who had a problem. Good luck
