Hello,
I'm looking for an electric towel rail that will heat our towels so they don't get the awful mildewy smell that accompanies the wet season in HK. I'd prefer an electric version that can plug into an outlet rather than being installed by an electrician. Has anyone purchased one of these, and if so, where exactly did you find it? I'm in England on business right now and am considering purchasing one of these towel warmers here, but it would make more sense to buy it in HK once I get back (no VAT) but only IF I can find one there! Can anyone help me in my quest to banish smelly towels?

I hate the smelly towels too. That's why I've bought a towel heater 6 months ago and it's excellent esp. for humid weather like these days. But it doesn't come with the plug so you'll need someone to replace the wire with the plug which should cost you perhaps $30-40 (I had similar work done years ago at a stall at the Theatre Lane, Central)

there's a product in wingon called dampp chaser from the u.s. it is not exactly a heater but a portable dehumidifier for storage spaces and bathroom i think. it advertises that it will prevent mold and mildew...
