Has anyone encountered any rust with this strainer?

No. I've only had it for a few months, but I seriously doubt that it would rust.

I have had mine for about 7 months so far and do keep water inside of it when not in use. There has been no issues with rust thus far, and I just checked the interior of the kettle.

I haven't had any issues with rusting but I also use baby oil before putting anything wet in it and I dry it after. It looks to be a pretty good dish drainer!

I have not seen any rust. This is honestly the best rack I have even had and would recommend it

I've had mine for a little over a year now, and no signs of rusting. I also purchased the in-sink dish drainer, and it is holding up beautifully as well. This is a quality product, made of a heavy duty stainless steel.

I have had no issues with rust in 2 years with near constant use. Scale was an issue but citric acid descaling and using filtered water fixed that.

I use it quite often and then clean and dry it by hand and have had no problem with rust as of this date. Care in washing and drying it well is the Key

I've had mine for almost nine months now and only found one tiny rust spot in my sink where the rubber bumper twisted around and the rack was exposed to the stainless steel sink. From that point on, I always make sure that the rubber bumpers are facing down where the rack rests on the sink bottom and haven't experienced any rust stains since. This is a great product and has saved my sink from many scratches!

The strainer is shiny so it may not be stainless steel. Either way I love the strainer. I've had the strainer 6-8 months and I use it every day. I love being able to have it hanging in one side of my sink. Definitely a good buy.

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 for 2.5 years and haven't had an issue with rust. I believe it's possible to leave water in the pot 24/7, but I empty mine every two days and let it "breathe" for a few hours

I have had no issues with rust, I wash mine bin the dishwasher, have left it in the sink over night in water, accidentally, and it still looks great. I use it several times a month and have no complaints at all.

I have never had any problem with rust - stainless steel should not rust under normal use.

I've had mine for about 4 months now and use it regularly, and haven't seen any rust yet!

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

I've had mine about a year and used it many times in my apartment. So far no rust. This type of tool is required for low quality toilets that continually clog (my situation). It does a fantastic job.

I've never gotten a rust spot in two years of usage. However, I did once get a small spot of metal discoloration from a bit of paint remover that I didn't clean up well enough (I use this sink in a shop area). I'm still very happy with this sink - it's extra deep, which is convenient for my usages.
