Title: Beware of the rust issue mentioned
Product review: I just had a Rival hot pot that I have had for 15-20 years finally give up the ghost, so I wanted another one just like it. Well, I bought this one, thinking it was even better since there were no exposed elements. The covering of the elements appears to be plastic so that water stays where the unprotected elements are and it showed rust around the rim of the black plastic circle in the bottom the first time I used it. I thought oh, well, a little rust won't be too bad. Then, the next time I used it, there were 2 rust spots on top of the black plastic (in other words it rusted through the plastic, not just around it). So, I'm sending it back, but it appears from correspondence I have had with Beach Camera that I will be liable for the return shipping which I don't think is right since the product is defective. I'm going with another brand and with amazon free shipping on the next one - taking no chances!
