wondering about rust on this particular towel rack? My son likes really hot showers.

Rust shouldn't be much of an issue if the bathroom is well ventilated; using the vent fan and maybe leaving the door cracked open so the steam of the hot water can escape the room. For an absolute guarantee of no rust in very steamy bathrooms it is an option to spray paint the entire towel rack with a clear coat.

I too enjoy hot showers! I have only had the rack since early October 2014, but no signs of rust at all.

Not sure about rust. I have this in my basement guest bathroom so it doesn't get regular use. So far it's held up nicely though.

We live in Florida which is pretty much the arm pit of the world as far as moisture is concerned and we've not had any rust issues. The only thing we do is turn it upside down so water doesn't collect in it.

Yes ours rusted some too after washing. I thought maybe my kids had left water sitting in it.

Mine have been on for 7 months including a steamy bathroom, and no rust or discoloration so far. They look great!

Mine is rusty. It rusted in spots as soon as I washed it first time. Now I keep it outside by my grill. It don't look good enough for the kitchen any more.

I have had it inside the shower cabinet for about 2 months now. Where I leave damp stuff over it I sometimes see some incipient rust, but it wipes right off. I live in a very humid place as well. I don't see myself replacing it any time soon.

Hi,I have had & used this shower rod for over 6 months and have had no indications of rust. Overall, it is a well made product. I am quite happy with it.

I have had mine since July of 2011 and as of this day today there is no rust on it!!! It stills looks like new!!! We take very hot showers and there is 2 of us that take showers everyday and all I do is wipe it clean after I spray it with foaming bubbles. If I ever need another one I will purchase this one. Awesome product and worth every penny!!

I don't think our environment is particularly wet, although maybe summer will be damp enough to cause some rust. Ours doesn't actually get water on it. It looks fine and holds the few towels we need, but it might rust if left out in a garage or used in a damp basement.

Stainless steel certainly isn't supposed to rust. I have had this rack for a year now and it still looks as good as new. And, more importantly, it has kept my sink looking good also.

Ironically I just moved my rack inside after being in the sun and the rain since mid may. The rack shows no rust EXCEPT slight rust at the screws that hinge the sides in and out. I consider this a minor problem and a little oil will fix it I have 4 of these shelves and although pricey they are great top quality J Fred Madden.....Springboro OH

That's odd. I haven't had that happen. Just a thought but do you have city water or hard (well) water? I have city water. Not sure it should matter as far as rust if you dried it. Towel dry or air dry? I have done both and have 6 kids so its been used a lot. Bad luck for you:( or faulty product?

I do and not have had a problem. It is all aluminum so it doesn't rust. I do dry it off though.

There is a little rust color on the top. I've had mine a little over a year and use the shower curtain hooks with the rollers on top. I'm pretty sure I can clean the rust color off. Great buy.

No, it hasn't for me at all. It was a great purchase. The adjustable feet make it really easy to move and they haven't rusted either. If you are sloppy with your shampoo bottles and have bar soap on the rack then you probably will have to rinse the rack more often, but I would assume that would be the case with any shower shelving.

The rollers are non magnetic, so I think they will not rust. The actual shower hook is magnetic, so in theory, it can rust. But the finish should provide some corrosion resistance, so they should last at least a few years before it becomes noticeable. I've had mine for a few months and they still look new.

I've had my curtain for almost 6 months and have seen no signs of rust yet. I also close the shower curtain fully after every shower, though, to allow even air-drying.
