There really is no base per say, the bottom edges of the metal canister are rounded so it doesnt scratch the surface its on. I have them at the salon to store bleach powder in, now i am curious and will have to look when I get back to work on tuesday....

It is made of part silicone and part plastic material - offering a dual layer protection. The interior material is silicone and the exterior is plastic. It has a soft rubber coating on the outside. Thanks! - CrazyOnDigital

It is a plastic micro safe container with plastic micro safe insert! If it were anything else you would have a problem.....

It is very cheap thin plastic and mine no longer fits properly on the base. I have quit using it as I am concerned about the safety of this plastic.

it's a cloudy plastic base, not too thick, not too thin & it hasn't cracked, very durable

I think the base is a hard form of plastic. I like them so well I have bought 4 of them for my rental cabins and home. They do in no way look cheap and they look real. The quality is as good as it gets. You will not be disappointed.

It's plastic. It's kind of cheaply made, the top doesn't always screw on tight enough and it is prone to leaking. Hope that helped!

The base is plastic, so be careful when removing it. If you have a warranty, contact the place you bought the pump from. I did and got a new replacement withint two weeks.

I'm not sure exactly what the enclosure is made of but its not plastic. It's very durable, I've dropped it on hardwood floors a few times and it's still working fine. And very lightweight and small so its easily portable. Hope that helps. I would buy again. The light scribe works burns fast. I'm very happy with the product.

No, it's plastic. Very tough plastic. Overall, the best canister I used, great for a up to 3 days for 2-3 people

The base is plastic, as is the top. Fairly sturdy. It's great for keeping clean water out for the birds! Great addition to the birdbath.

the base is heavy duty, I believe it is plastic covering over metal. the processer is plastic and the main blender is glass. it has worked well for us.

Sorry I am so late. I was sick. I only use it once or twice a day and never found the seal to fail. The top is made of a sturdy plastic and the seal appears to be a good ol' silicon. I love this little canister. Silicon will last a lifetime

The bottom of the frother is covered with a teflon-like material. The metal disc sits on a plastic base. The lid is plastic.

It is a plastic base. Seems very sturdy and as it just sits there, it seems to do a great job holding the weight of a water filled tank.

Hello! It's a lid with no holes that closes the contents below from the air with a 'rubber' gasket. The exact material of the gasket i do not know, but the lid itself is made of the same material as the base. Mine was dropped and shattered as a consequence soon after arrival. It has not been missed. I can't figure out how it is useful because I pour and drink the coffee fairly quickly. It was in the way and I did not use it when I had it to use.

Well the interior of the canister is metal, but the rest of the parts are plastic
