Quote from Amazon " This kettle, while nice for the first few months, develops rust and leaks, creating a mess all over one's kitchen counters. The kettle is not stainless steel, and the kettle will form rust spots wherever water contacts the kettle. My particular kettle, in addition to rust spots inside of the kettle, also developed rust and a leak at the base of the gooseneck on the bottom where the gooseneck meets the kettle. It leaks EVERYWHERE, and when tilting the kettle it will leak profusely - which is a great feature considering that it is leaking near boiling hot water on you. I submitted a warranty claim and it was denied despite the clear manufacturing default. I would recommend fully to save your money ($75 or $99) and spend it on a company that doesn't willfully deceive their customers. "

I've had the kettle without the timer on it for almost a year now and it's definitely stainless steel. Aside from the obvious colour and finish, I have not seen any rust. I use it 2-3 times daily and love it.

I've used the 1L one every day for a year, also not one spec of rust on it. Also i've worked in the metal industry and stainless can rust, there are many different stainless steel alloys that have different resistance to corrosion. I think something corrosive might have gotten on this persons kettle to make it rust.

H82failI've had the 1.7L offered in this drop for over a year now as well, used at least once day, oftentimes several times more than that as my wife drinks tea throughout the day. No leaks, No rust. Still looks new. Just keeps doing its job (knock on wood).
