I'm concerned the Bedrug will hold moisture in the bed &amp; prevent adequate air-flow/drying which may lead to rusting over time. Anyone have a comment?

I have owned 3 of these and have not seen any moisture issues and we live in a humid climate.

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.

Beverly,There's still water collection between the bows but after driving the truck the water will just blow off the back. Air circulates in the bed from the gap between the front edge of the bed, so the air pushes the material up and makes the water roll off. I don't take it off or open it that much, so I couldn't tell you if it will have shrinkage in cold temps. Plus, I live in Florida. It's great material and even with the amount of rain we've gotten down here, there isn't any discoloration.

Bathroom should be fine. Mine is in a basement and its a little damp and cold. No issues and I have had it up for months. Also, I don't think the material is rust prone. Seems to be stainless steel but I am not certain.

No, it will start to pull up over time do to fluctuation in temp, and humidity. For long term protection you may want to use a bed liner or original ( non spray able) plasti dip. It's thicker.

no, no problems of any kind, am very happy with it. have only had it for six or eight months though, which may not be long enough for rust to show up.

I haven't had my shelf very long, but it seems to be very durable. Our bathroom, is very large and mine is mounted on the wall well away from the shower, so I know it won't rust there. But if you have it in a bath that gets totally hot and steamy, or close enough to where it might get splattered, be aware that it might rust. I like it because it holds alot and we can always have clean, fresh towels handy.

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 sold that camper a couple years ago, but I don't remember it "sweating", or if it did it was very little. Remember you need to ventilate the space that the heater is in, that should help with the moisture problem.

i have mine for more than a year and have no complaints. if you want to prevent rust don't clean it in a dishwasher.... this is the only advice i can give

I have been trouble by the rust as well.... I have had mine for about 6 months too, and use it constantly.... Any ideas would be helpful because I LOVE this thing!!!!

I did. The item has a coating on it to prevent it from rusting. Wash well with soap and water, let dry and it should be fine.

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

Because reviews are mixed in regard whether the bedpad is waterproof or not, i would not trust it. I do not own one, but I recently purchased a new bed and that cover was offered as part of the package. I declined to have it, but I was shown a sample and the waterproof element was demonstrated. From what I could surmise, the pad may indeed be waterproof, but with use, it may develop random weaknesses and allow liquid to pass through. My suggestion would be to purchase some waterproof underpads (often sold for incontinent patients) for the bed, and place a pad or two UNDERNEATH the 'waterproof' mattress pad. That way you would have a little extra insurance against a 'pee bed'. The pads would last a long time I would think. You could also fold a shower curtain or plastic table cover to the appropriate size needed and use that under the pad... you can get the thin cheap ones at the dollar store.

Yes, mine has signed of rust, but in full disclosure its because I don't take it apart to clean it and allow for it to dry.

I have owned this towel rack less than a month, so it would be too early for rust x but the metal has a finish that would likely resist corrosion for a good long while. It looks decent and is quite practical. And...is not as expensive as others I have compared. I hope that is helpful.

Had mine for 2+ years and still dry as a bone. Assembled properly, there shouldn't be any issue with water leaks.
