Maas & Bath Heated Drying Rack Review: Dry Clothes Overnight Without Running the Dryer?
Maas & Bath Heated Drying Rack
Between electric bills and clothes that shrink, a lot of families are drying more on racks. The problem is that a normal rack takes a day. The Maas & Bath heated rack claims to cut that to a few hours. I ran a week of laundry through it.
What it is
A foldable aluminum drying rack with heating elements in the bars. It plugs into a regular outlet, warms up gently and dries whatever is hanging on it. It folds flat when you are done.
How it works
The bars warm to a safe, low temperature that speeds evaporation without the tumbling that wears out fabric. Delicates, towels and sweaters dry evenly, and because it is low heat, it uses a fraction of the power of a dryer.
The verdict
If you already line-dry, this is an easy upgrade. Towels and jeans still take longer than a dryer, but shirts, underwear and delicates are dry in a few hours and the electricity cost is minimal. Good for apartments and winter.
What we liked
- Dries far faster than a normal rack
- Gentle on fabric, no shrinking
- Folds flat for storage
- Low power draw
What to keep in mind
- Heavy items like towels still take several hours
- Takes up floor space while in use

It is designed for extended use and the bars stay warm, not hot, to the touch.

A typical load of shirts, underwear and socks. Large bedding is better folded over several bars.
