Riviera - Dual Connection - Polished Gold
Features
-
Generous 9-bar Design: The Riviera towel warmer rack uses 9 polished gold finished stainless steel bars to evenly distribute heat, warming up to 2 large towels or bathrobes
-
Dual Connection: The wall-mounted Riviera uses 120 VAC input power and can be used as is for a plug-in connection or the cord can be modified by a licensed electrician for a hardwired connection. No electrical gang box or wall plate is required — power connects inside the leg, so do not rough in a junction box at the mounting location
-
Overheat Protection: This model comes with built-in TempSmart™ overheat protection to prevent the unit’s surface temperature from exceeding 167°F (75°C)
-
No Cover Plate Required: Because this unit doesn't require a gang-box or corresponding cover plate, it has a very streamlined and balanced appearance after installation: Power is supplied to the towel warmer through one of the legs instead of requiring a separate cover plate for a streamlined appearance after installation
-
Easy to Clean: The curved bars are made of durable stainless steel construction which is easy to keep clean
Riviera Description
Almost nothing ensures that you’ll have a good day more than making sure your morning starts off right. A towel warmer, like the Riviera, is a simple but effective way to vastly improve your morning routine by providing you with a touch of high-end luxury in the comfort of your own bathroom. Made of high-quality stainless steel, this towel warmer has more than enough room to accommodate your towels or bathrobes. Each of the nine curved towel bars are designed to dry and warm large towels or bathrobes easily. Just imagine always feeling the comfort and coziness of a warm towel after your shower or bathe, or waking up on a cold morning and being able to put on a warm bathrobe.
Its stainless steel construction gives the Riviera long-lasting durability and the polished gold finish serves to reflect ambient light brilliantly. The polished gold finish is applied via Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) and it enhances durability, resisting scratches, corrosion, and tarnishing while maintaining a brilliant, long-lasting shine.
This towel warmer is also dual connection which means that it can be used “as is” to plug into a standard 120 VAC outlet or it can be modified by a licensed electrician to have a hardwired 120 VAC electrical connection. When this towel warmer is installed with a hardwired electrical connection, there is no unattractive and cumbersome cover plate required because of its unique design. The Riviera is safe and is cETLus listed. It comes with an LED power switch and TempSmart™ overheat protection to prevent the unit’s surface temperature from exceeding 167°F (75°C). For peace of mind, the Riviera is covered by our 2-year manufacturer’s warranty.
Optional towel warmer controls sold separately.

PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) is the gold finish technology used on WarmlyYours gold towel warmers. It's a vacuum-based process that bonds a thin, ultra-durable layer of gold-colored metal directly to the stainless steel surface.
PVD coating is superior to traditional plating or paint because it is:
- Highly durable: More scratch-resistant and wear-resistant than electroplating
- Corrosion-resistant: Ideal for humid bathroom environments
- Long-lasting: Maintains its finish for 25+ years with minimal maintenance
- Low-maintenance: Requires only occasional wiping with a soft cloth
- Environmentally friendly: No toxic chemicals used in the process
WarmlyYours offers PVD gold in two options: Polished Gold (high-gloss, reflective) and Brushed Gold (matte, contemporary). Both are available on select models including the Infinity and Riviera.
WarmlyYours is the only towel warmer manufacturer to offer hand-crafted Austrian crystal accents. They are available in four distinct patterns:
- Platinum: Classic clear crystals with brilliant sparkle — versatile, pairs with any finish or bathroom style.
- Slate: Sophisticated gray tone — modern and understated, pairs beautifully with matte black or brushed stainless finishes.
- Midnight: Deep, dark crystals — dramatic and luxurious, creates striking contrast with polished gold or polished stainless.
- Spice: Warm amber tone — rich and inviting, complements brushed gold and warm-toned bathrooms.
Crystal accents are available on the Infinity (10 bars) and Riviera (9 bars) Dual Connect models. They can be ordered pre-installed or added separately to any compatible finish. Crystals remain visible even when towels are draped over the bars.
Austrian crystal accents are exclusively available on two WarmlyYours Dual Connect models:
- Infinity Dual Connect (10 bars, 150W) — available with crystals in Brushed Stainless, Matte Black, and Brushed Gold finishes. Crystal patterns: Platinum, Slate, Midnight, Spice.
- Riviera Dual Connect (9 curved bars, 150W) — available with crystals in Polished Stainless and Polished Gold finishes. Crystal patterns: Platinum, Slate, Midnight, Spice.
Both models can be ordered with crystals pre-installed, or you can purchase the crystal accents separately and add them to an existing compatible model. The crystals fit into stainless steel collars on the bar ends and are designed to remain visible even when towels are draped over the bars.
Each towel warmer comes with an instruction manual which fully explains how to install the device from start to finish. If you can hang a picture, you can probably install a heated towel rack. However, for hardwired models, you will need a licensed professional who is certified to do electrical wiring for the final hook-up.
