Is there a problem with water intrusion and rot in the pockets?

If installed properly it should not be an issue, however i used composite decking so it should not be an issue for my deck

I haven't had any but I just installed my deck this summer. I don't feel it is any different than any other securing device as far as that goes. My deck is 25 x 25 and I used over 300 screws. Keep in mind you drill a hole for every screw you put in the board. I really like this product.

Only been in use for maybe a month. We have had heavy rain a few times and have had no issue with the compost getting to wet. Hope this helps.

I bought this somewhere around a year ago with no rushing issues. Whenever I'm not using it, I remove all water and dry just to be safe. I would assume if water is left In it, it would most likely rust, but thus far, all is well and rust free.

We have had one for ten years. Had to replace it last year. Not a problem with rain but the new screening comes apart. Had it replace twice already and it needs replacing again. I put it up to not quality screen used.

Mine does that if I movenit without filling draining it. It stops though. For me its only happened when I have traveled with it.

Mostly, obviously stuff in front pockets gets wet, but stuff in main compartments stays mostly dry. IF there are clothes not in plastic bags, they'll get damp (I think the wind gets water under the flaps since they're only attached by the bucket and not a water-proof zipper. There's definitely not like ppols of water in the main compartments, though.

Ive had mine for about a year now, no issues what so ever. I also am bad about leaving it in a sink full of wet dishes. I liked mine so much I bought one as part of a gift for my father in law. I hope this helps!

No. There are holes along most of the unit to allow the "compost tea" to drain and be collected. However, I have not have a problem with bugs.

I haven't had that problem and our water is hard. I dry with a soft towel and it works good for me.

I have had my sink installed since March 29, 2013 and I have no problems as of yet. This is located in a half bath on the main floor of my home which gets used on a daily basis. Not sure if this helps you or not.

I've had mine in our kitchen sink for at least two months and it's perfect - no rust. Could it be water difference? I'm in Western Washington.

One of my rentals built in 1943 had this problem with all forms of toilet paper. Finally I had a great plumber replace the sewer lines with pipes that are up to the current code, eliminated excessive elbows and installed them with the correct slope. No issues at all now at any of my 4 rentals or the home I live in. And let me tell you, renters can be hard on pipes.

No rust issues, but mold has grown on the silicon rubber ring from time to time. I occasionally pull it out and run it through dishwasher. Anytime water is trapped, mold growth is possible. I consider it to be an annoyance more than a health hazard. No issues elsewhere with mold.

I had some around 5 years old and I did notice it's quality depleted a bit. If it was kept cool and dry it might still be ok.If it comes out runny it's time to replace.

As far as I'm concerned, there are zero drainage issues. The sink won't be completely dry after it drains, but no sink is. There is no standing water, if that is your concern.

I'm not sure if we've had that issue with these mops, but other similar mops we've used in the past have gotten rusty. Maybe put some CLR on it to loosen any rust?

I have replaced all of the snap closures for the pockets because they pop open. If security is your concern then you may want to look elsewhere
