Is the interior partly plastic? Why is there the opening near the top? Is this plastic or glass?

Mine is full of pepper so I can't tell you about the insides except that otherwise, this thing is metal from top to bottom. I would expect that the grinder is either metal or ceramic but I have never looked. There is no opening in the top, either glass or plastic. It's solid metal. Maybe you are seeing a reflection? I am not sure what you are seeing. Chrome from top to bottom with the little brass nut on top. Very sturdy. Has served me very well.

The interior, though I didn't take it apart other than to remove the top to fill it, seems to be all metal. The opening at the top is where you put the peppercorns in. You unscrew the rounded nut on the very top, remove the handle then the plastic dome cover and pour in the peppercorns. It is heavy and well made. The plastic dome is simply to cover and keep peppercorns inside. It has nothing to do with the grinding. The grinder at the bottom is thick metal. The best grinder I have owned in 30 years.

I think you should ask Pepper Mill Imports, that's who I bought it from. I gave it as a gift, I don't have it to look at.

The lid has a tab that allows you to close it. The inside of the cup is plastic. I still love mine.

It is glass. We have had no issues with this and have found it easy to keep clean.

The inside is plastic. I use them to make tinctures, so I had to make sure that there was no cardboard on the caps.

The clear, inner portion is glass and it slips into a plastic tube. The sprayer and top are also plastic. It is much better looking that I thought it was going to be.

There is a clear plastic window in the top but there is a version that has an all metal top. We opted for the window cause we have to catch ad release..

It's not made of plastic the inside. It's like brushed steel and it's a pretty big mug.

This is plastic, which I like since it isn't as breakable as glass, but if that's what you want you should look elsewhere.

We gave it as a gift and they seem to really like it so I asked... Reply was; "It seems to be glass. Beware: The top is heavy and falls off easily. So, if you are getting one you may want to look for a complete stainless steel top." They said as long as you are aware of this it is fine. Hope this helps.

Mine was plastic. The glass outer shell and the glass part of the lid both cracked within the first few weeks I had it. Although I liked the product, I probably would not buy it again. I would look for an option less likely to break.

Interior is stainless as well. I think they are referring to the aesthetics of stainless as compared to plastic or glass.

The inside hinge is made of plastic. The only parts that appear to be metal is the foot plate, stablizing part at the front and the lid lever.

The inner part is all glass. The plastic just covers the glass which makes it convenient to place on hard surfaces and keeps the outside cool to the touch.

The outside is glass, the strainer inside is clear plastic and the lid is rubber or silicone covered. The inside sipper is plastic. Hope that helps

no it's not plastic, its glass shelves and metal casing holding it up. It looks great and very functional.
