The most inexpensive of the bunch are standard bathroom towel bars that are simple in design, usually costing around the $30 price range. If you’re looking for extra storage, opt for a 2-piece set that includes two separate towel bars that can be hung next to each other or in different parts of the bathroom. These packs are especially handy for families and couples who each want their own towel bar.

If you’re limited on space, then choose a bathroom towel bar that has a shelf on top, giving you room for more storage or decorative appeal. If you like the idea of having a bathroom towel bar that has a decorative edge, then opt for a holder that features a design on the top, such as leaves or flowers, that will leave a silhouette design on your wall.

Don’t think that the choices end here, however, as there are different sizes to choose from as well. Straight, long edge towel bars are ideal for bath and shower towels, although many people love dressing them up with monogrammed towels instead. For hand towels, choosing rounded towel bars are most popular, although short and straight towel bars are gaining in popularity, since they leave the bathroom with a more modern look and feel.
