How well does this work for a house that is somewhat humid? I want to make sure I'm not going to buy something that is going to rust in our house.

This is the ultimate clothes hanger. I would purchase it again without doubt. Stainless steel does not rust, strong, heavy, I leave my upright since purchase. I would def recommend and purchase this product again. Hope this helps!

This product is one of the best of its kind. It won't warp like the wooden ones and I have used it in the damp Northern California climate as well as the humid south Florida winters and summers. I highly recommend it!

This is garbage. Mine rusted in 2 months. The company won't call me back or return my emails. Don't buy.

I don't think it will rust. We leave ours assembled and don't dusmantle it every time so that may overall help prolong the life of the rack too.

I bought this for in the house in the wintertime. It is -27 degrees here so our house is very dry. If you are fortunate enoughto be in a warmer climate and have excess humidity, you may want to invest in a dehumidifier. I cannot see this having any rust problems for years. I also do not collapse mine and have it always standing in my laundry room. I love mine. Hope this of some help to you.

I live in upstate New York, and the only time it is humid is in the summer. Otherwise, I simply love this beautiful and sturdy clothes hanger. I do not understand the one review on how his falls apart? Using it the first time, you have to oil it to get the two bars to fold onto the rack. Every time I use it, it works perfectly. I had a wood one for many years, and it wore out.

I wouldn't buy it period. The construction is so poor- it falls apart every time one tries to use it.

We live in Florida, so it is humid here too. So far it has not rusted at all. It is working out for me.

I have been using mine for months in a humid bathroom, hanging wet towels on them, and no signs of rust.

I am using it on an outside porch. I have a lot of salt spray so it may eventually rust, but I think a little rustoleum spray will go along way if this happens. Has worked great so far! A little car polish can help add some protection as well.

It's not too bad. I run it on fan speed of 3 which is plenty to humidify the house. I do have it in a room that is not normally occupied though. I don't think you'd want to have it sitting next to you in your living room or bedroom. We have a wood stove and this unit is well worth a little humming noise to generate some humidity in the house. We love it!

I've had it for a year on a covered, outdoor, back porch and have no rust. It can get wet or snowy if it is blowing hard enough.

Yes, I am using it in the humid environment. The thermostat has been working as expected.

You shouldn't experience any rust issues indoors. The finish is enough to protect it from rust for many, many years.

I have had mine for 5 months now, we use it regularly and have zero rust. I wash it out and let it air dry after every use.

I've had mine now for a couple of months and love it. I would be surprised if it does rust, though I haven't had a lot of time to really answer definitively. It cleans wonderfully though and even the baked on drips slide right off. Thanks

are you absolutely sure it is completely dry? any moisture left on it will cause rust. usually I dry mine and then let it sit out (in the air) for awhile to make sure all moisture is gone

I only bought mine for indoor use. I do believe it would rust quickly, unless you use it in a gazebo so the elements don't get at it too quickly.

I wouldn't suggest it, rust will definitely take hold eventually anywhere it gets dinged up. Not that it wouldn't still last a while, it's a strong unit just not something I would do.

I am in Colorado, pretty dry here. I am not sure how well it would work in a humid area. It doea not freeze out my daughters room and hers is 100 sq ft. It just makes it cool. I would not get this one if your area is much larger than that.

I've had mine several years now and it does not rust. I use it indoors and have transparent drip trays under the pots that don't have their own drip trays. I really like mine, you can adjust the arrangement of the 3 legs somewhat to allow for plants that are wider or ones that are taller or plants that vine downward, like an ivy. they don't have to all be evenly spaced. Mine is currently on an oak shelf under a window so to protect the surface I have small self-adhesive felt-like pieces on each of the curved feet.

I haven't had it very long but it is in my basement where it is unfinished and can be extremely cold and humid when I am doing laundry. I have seen no sign of rust at this time. I also really like the way it folds up and holds a lot of clothing!!

If you don't dry it properly, it will rust - just like a cast iron frying pan. I saw the reviews about rust and made sure to wipe it down (to get rid of any excess water) after washing it and then letting it air dry fully before storing it. I would imagine that people in high humidity areas would have more trouble, too.
