5.0 out of 5 stars serves the purpose, February 17, 2009

This does exactly what it is designed to do, and does it well. In response to the complaint about it being designed for a wide door and moving around when put on one that's not so wide, it does have 2 pre-drilled holes to fasten it to the top of the door. In addition to using these, I trimmed off the excess metal (and it is made of metal, not plastic) with a hacksaw so it would not hamper the door from closing. With these 2 minor modifications it is perfect for hanging one towel and maybe a washcloth. I agree that 3 full-sized towels would be unlikely to dry if all placed on the rack at the same time while damp.

3.0 out of 5 stars Attractive but not a great fit, November 9, 2008

Literally, because the over-the-door hooks are made for a wider door and cause the entire unit to move with the door. So make sure you measure your door before you buy.

Also, towels do not dry with this rack. The towels in our house need to be folded in half in order to fit and three folded towels hanging next to each other will remain damp.

So, if you have a bath situation that wouldn't fall under any of the above areas go ahead and buy. It does look nice.

4.0 out of 5 stars A simple, no tools required, way to expand towel space, October 12, 2009

This towel rack is a simple way to expand or create towel space without tools or fuss. Apartments never seem to have enough towel rods for more than one person, or they are located in less than optimal locations, so this is a simple way to expand towel space without drilling mounting holes. I received mine as a gift and have been using it for over two years.

The construction is metal, with the exception of the white caps at the ends of each rod. As some have mentioned, the hooks that go over the top of the door are very wide (2 1/8"). I've never had a door wide enough to fill the space; however, I haven't wanted to screw into the door either. My solution was to buy little clear, bumper pads (rubber or polyurethane--not sure which) and stick them to the inner surface of the hooks (to bracket the sides of the door) and behind the bottom corners of the rack. The bumper pads reduce and cushion any shifting. Even with the door open, I haven't had trouble threading on a bath sheet or three, or a combination of towel sizes.

That said, I have taken away one star because--though this has three towel rods--you can really only use two of the towel rods and have your towels dry adequately. I tend to hang my large bath sheet from the top rod and a smaller bath towel from the lowest rod. Both need to be folded in half to fit, so that what I get is much like the product picture (though my top towel is much larger).

Overall, I recommend this product as a simple, no tools required, way to expand towel space. Just keep the dimensions (22.5"H x 17.7"W x 3.7"D) and above limitations in mind when ordering.
