In a tiny house, the bathroom is often the smallest room. It's usually 3 feet by 4 feet. Because of this, it gets hot, humid, and foggy instantly after a shower.
Most people accept this as the reality of tiny living. But at Dream Tiny Houses, your bathroom should feel like a futuristic spa, not a gym locker room.
By integrating smart technology, you can solve the moisture problems we discussed in our Air Quality Guide while adding a touch of luxury. Here is the best high-tech gear on Amazon to upgrade your morning routine.
The Moisture Battle
A wet bathroom is a dirty bathroom. In a small space, wet towels don't dry; they get musty. Mirrors stay fogged for an hour. The gear below isn't just about "looking cool"—it's about fighting mold and bacteria using heat and light.
(Pro Tip: Combine these gadgets with the Smart Lighting we recommended earlier for the full mood effect.)
The Amazon Smart Bath Kit: Good, Better, Best
We have selected three upgrades, ranging from "Hygiene Essential" to "Total Luxury."
🥉 The "Hygiene" Pick: UV Toothbrush Sanitizer
Best For: Keeping germs away in tight spaces.
In a tiny bathroom, your toothbrush is often uncomfortably close to the toilet. This wall-mounted gadget solves that "ick" factor. It holds your brushes and blasts them with UV-C light, killing 99.9% of bacteria. It runs on a rechargeable battery and doubles as a toothpaste dispenser, decluttering your tiny vanity.
Pros: Kills germs, organizes brushes, futuristic look, and is cheap.
Cons: You have to recharge it every few weeks.

🥈 The "Comfort" Pick: Wall-Mounted Heated Towel Warmer
Best For: Drying towels in humid climates.
This is a game-changer for tiny living. A heated rack dries your towel in minutes after a shower, preventing that mildew smell from taking over your house. It also acts as a gentle space heater for the bathroom. Look for a plug-in model so you don't have to hire an electrician to hardwire it.
Pros: Keeps towels fresh, reduces laundry frequency, adds warmth.
Cons: Takes up wall space (measure carefully!).

🥇 The "Spa" Pick: LED Anti-Fog Smart Mirror
Best For: Making small bathrooms feel huge.
Stop wiping the mirror with your hand. These smart mirrors have a built-in heating pad behind the glass that keeps the glass clear, even during the steamiest showers. They also feature built-in dimmable LED ring lighting (perfect for makeup) and a digital clock display so you don't run late.
Pros: Instantly upgrades the room's look, built-in lighting saves ceiling space, and zero fog.
Cons: Requires an electrical outlet behind or near the vanity.

Installation Advice
Most smart mirrors come with a plug, but for a true "New Atlas" look, you might want to recess the outlet behind the mirror. If you aren't comfortable with electrical work, the plug-in versions work just fine—just use a cord cover to keep it neat.
Final Thoughts
Technology allows us to live smaller without sacrificing comfort. A warm towel and a clear mirror might seem like small things, but on a cold winter morning in a tiny house, they make all the difference.
