Professional Channel · Hot Towel Cabinet, Bucket Form
Professional bucket-style towel warmers for spas, salons, and estheticians.
GoldHot manufactures 20L electric bucket-style towel warmers for the professional channel. Hot-towel cabinet performance in a stand-alone bucket form, no plumbing required, ETL/UL/CE/PSE certified. Used by day spas for hot stone service, salons for blowout finishing, estheticians for facial hot-towel compress, and hotel laundries for in-room amenity setup.
Bucket form vs traditional hot towel cabinet
A traditional hot towel cabinet sits on the counter with sliding doors and warms a stack of small face towels. The GoldHot bucket form warms full bath sheets vertically by 360° conduction, holds 20 litres of cavity volume, and operates stand-alone with a standard plug. Compared to a counter cabinet, the bucket form:
- Warms full bath sheets, not just face towels.
- Holds 20L (up to 12 medium towels or 2 oversized bath sheets).
- Reaches operating temperature in 6 to 12 minutes.
- Plugs into any standard 110V or 220V outlet, no plumbing.
- Auto shut-off at 30 / 60 / 90 / 120 minutes.
- Tested under continuous-duty conditions for commercial use.

Frequently asked, professional channel
How is this different from a traditional hot towel cabinet?
A traditional hot towel cabinet is a horizontal countertop unit warming small face towels through a heating coil at the back. The GoldHot bucket is a vertical stand-alone unit with 360° wall heating that warms full bath sheets. The bucket form holds more litres in less counter space, plugs in anywhere, and tests at hospital-grade dielectric standards.
Do we need any plumbing or hardwiring?
No. Every GoldHot bucket model is stand-alone with a standard plug. 110V variants for North American spas, 220V for EU / UK / Asia / Australia, 100V for Japan. Hardwired versions on special order from MOQ 500.
How fast does a unit reach operating temperature?
6 to 12 minutes from cold start, depending on model and load. Continuous-duty thermostat holds temperature without cycling.
What is the minimum order for a professional buyer?
MOQ is 200 units per SKU. Below 200 we quote samples (1 to 10 units) for product testing. Pilot-tier wholesale pricing applies from 200 to 999, full wholesale pricing from 1,000.
Can we put our spa or salon brand on the unit?
Yes, from 500 pieces. Laser engraving, custom colour, custom packaging, custom user manual. Tooling included in the unit cost, no separate setup fee. Sample lead time for branded units is 10 to 14 days.
Which certifications cover commercial / spa use?
ETL and UL for US, CE for EU, PSE for Japan, UKCA for UK, plus FCC, RoHS, CB Scheme, and CA Prop 65 across the catalogue. All twelve certifications are issued for the same factory floor, so the unit in your spa is the unit cleared by every regulator we list.
