How has these legs held up in being stored in the weather. Wondered if they have rusted away on those who bought them. THANKS

I haven't noticed any rust or other problems with the extension legs on the set that I installed on my ladder and it is stored outside in Colorado weather year around.

My ladder has been on top of my truck for two winters and there is very little surface rust. A little oil on the cams and they're ready to go.

The legs (galvanized metal ) do / can develop surface rust, but it has never effected their performance and they have never decayed to the point of non-function due to rust. These sorts of devices do require maintenance, and like anything that your safety depends on, must be checked each time you use them. I have had some of these for over 15 years and they still work, even after being stored outside uncovered.

Do not even hesitate on buying these. They are awesome. I purchased these not too long ago. I luv them. I also purchased them last year for a friend, no rust at all. Hope this helps.

They are made of some sort of metal and do not seem to rust. They have only been up about 4 months, so time will tell.

I have had mine for some time now, and I ride all year long in all kinds of weather. No indications of any rust showing up on it so far.

I never read the box, but I've been using them for a couple of years. I've not experience rust, if that's what you're worried about. I gave a set to my friend...no complaints there either.

No rust. No dripping. I do take them off in the winter for the season. Slight sun fading has occurred. I expected that though.

Mine have not rusted. But they are not in water very often. they are sturdy. we've had them about 9-10 months and my 3 year old son uses them for drums more so than cooking. they show a couple dings (slight) but they have been put through a torture test.

I have mine in the freezer and have had for about 6 months. No rust yet. And they are really great solid baskets.

I do not know if they will rust because I live in Phoenix and they are always in the shade. I had problems with the plastic because in the summer it gets so hot here, the plastic does not seem to hold up.

I've had mine since April. They haven't rusted nor has the coating peeled. Hope this helps :)

Jwill, I can't say for sure. Mine show no signs of rust, but they are kept inside and dry. At the price I can not imagine that they are made of high quality stainless steel, so my guess is they will rust if left in an environment that would promote rust.

These are "best you can buy" quality and I've not had any problem with them rusting. With normal care of washing, drying, and storing in the provided block, you should have any trouble with rusting or discoloring.

We used them in the storage compartment on our camper and they have worked great. There is no rust on them however, they are in a dry enclosed area.

So far so good!! I'm a little surprised though with some rust spots on the frame, I would have thought that this wouldn't occur as they are used out doors.? But no sign of threads coming loose ! I have been using them all summer. Good luck with yours!

We left ours up outside for a month or so outside and it did not rust or get damaged. It seems pretty sturdy as long as you keep it staked into the ground..If you get alot of wind you may want to bring it in also.

Mine stays outside and is holding up well. But only have had it for 6 mo. No corrosion or rust. I believe it comes with a 10 year guarantee against that.

I've encountered no rust problems as yet. I've had mine for several months and it's been under the patio the entire time.
