I recently got mine, and after only 4 uses have found rust developing on the inside bottom of the outer pot. Anyone else have this problem?

Yes. I have the same situation. but it seems it never bother me to use it if it is the outer pot. I need to clean the inside pot when it gets rust after using for a while

I do not have this problem. I always wipe the outer pot with wet tea towel, then again with dry tea towel before putting it away.

I find it high quality stainless steel, no rust for me, oxidation with stainless is unheard of, what have you cooked or done with your cooker?

I still use my everyday. I don't have any rusting issue what so every. I have been using my everyday since I got it. The inside still looks new.

Sorry for responding so late, but I just noticed that the set is starting to show small rust spots inside the creamer & sugar bowl, as well as on the surface of the serving tray. I intend to change my review to say that I no longer would recommend this item.

I soak mine frequently and have even run it through the dishwasher a few times. It has never rusted, but it has discolored slightly.

I bought mine on Amazon early last year and mine is rusted in all the joints and feet. I posted pictures on my review.

I've had the same problem. I would tend to agree with Maggie Too9 - but am frustrated bc this is the best** tea kettles available to us throw-away americans. and i'd like to not throw this away. is it really rust???

Mine started rusting after few months , I did use wash it couple of times in Dishwasher , not sure if that caused it to wear faster .

I have not had mine very long. I am sure with a little care like drying the inside after use would probably prevent any rusting. also I have always heard that stainless steel is not supposed to rust or discolor. sorry wish I could have been more help.

Oh, you meant rust. No, I have been using this pot for several years and there is no rust.

No problems here. I used the pot for making Salsa and was very happy with it. I have seen no evidence of rust. I bought the pot summer of 2011, I believe.

I used crisco to season mine when I first got it. Every now and then I spray it with olive oil. Going to season it again with crisco here in a few days. Haven't seen any sign of rust. How long have you had it?

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.

I see some rust creeping onto this thing after just a few uses. It has been kept on my covered porch, so it doesn't get rained on, but it is exposed to dampness. Unfortunately the thing is so hot after cooking that I don't see how I could clean, cover or move it until the next morning.

I also saw a rust spot in the bottom of the kettle, and I had it barely for 2 weeks and used a handful of times. Disappointed.

I have seen some small rust spots on mine after a couple months of use, but I was using the dishwasher. Since them I've switched to hand washing always.

No, mine looks great, almost like new even after a lot of use. I have quite of few stainless steel pots and pan and nothing like what you are describing has ever happened. In my never to be humble opinion it is not common.
