Is the pot the food is in aluminum???

I'm not positive that it is. However it is fairly light to lift out and yet heavy enough that things don't burn. I love that it doubles on the stove top (or in the oven) to prep foods before starting the slow cooker.

I found no description of the insert other that it is teflon coated. As long as you use the appropriate utensilsand prevent damaging the coating there should not be a problem.

no, Its coated, And it works great. My wife and I use it at least once a week, we love it :)

Yes, very thick aluminum covered by a no stick surface. Its not Teflon and I don't know exactly what it is but it works. I highly recommend the Breville slow cooker. My wife and I both enjoy it very much.

It is coated, not stick. I don't think it is aluminum. Have had it now for a few years, use it a lot and it has no problems.

Yes , it's also coated with Teflon . You can use it on the stove to braise meat then put it in the slow cooker.Deb, this is the very best slow Cooker you will ever buy ( and the last one ) it is so well made, ane the temperature controls ( 3 ) work perfect. Enjoy ! Sincerely , Alex

I was told it was aluminum, we don't put it in the dish washer....we wash it by hand. We love it and how it cooks.....

This is not nonstick aluminum, all stainless as far as I know. It was a gift for someone.

No the inner lining including the bottom, is all one piece and made of aluminum. It does not bother me. I do not see how that affects the food in the inner pot. It does get dirty and stained easily which I keep clean by adding some vinegar to the water inside every now and then.

No, the basket doesn't look like aluminum. I think everything in the Percolator are stainless steel, including the basket, the stem, and the spreader.

Wrong. I own it. The pot is definitely not stainless steel and it does have a non stick surface. Mine burned and the nonstick peeled. Not safe to use after this happens. I'm buying a new one.

No. It sure looks like stainless. I am not 100% sure, though. It certainly doesn't look like aluminum.The seller should post this kind of information, I think.

You mean right under the lid? No. All of the pot is ceramic and metal except there appears to be one small plastic piece in the mechanism toward the middle of the pot.

No it is aluminum with non-stick coating. It is a great pan though. We use it for baking cookies and biscuits and just about everything...including pizza.

I don't think it's aluminum (see the weight). . It's cast iron in my opinion.

Yes, the bottom of the pot is aluminum. It heats evenly and I love to cook in it. Great for green beans, mac and cheese or boiling noodles. Leave the strainer/fry basket in place and it's an automatic strainer. Love mine!

The pan is definitely made of aluminum. I still have the packaging that came around the pan because it has recipes on the inside of it. it says on the packaging made of aluminum for even cooking throughout. This pan has been awesome.

Yes. The pot is stainless steel, but the handle and the knob on the top are plastic and heat could cause BPA to leech out from plastic if it's present (this should not be the case with this pot.)

It's all stainless steel, no aluminum. The outside bottom of the pan has a thick layer of stainless steel to prevent food from burning.

There's no aluminum in ours. The element is probably high carbon stainless, because a magnet will attract it but less so than the other parts such as the pan, the brackets on the heating element, etc. So it is all steel of some sort or another. (The parts that contact the food, that is.)

The pot itself is stainless steel. I just cook with that. You may be talking about an aluminum insert, but I don't use an insert. There is aluminum in the bottom of the pot for even heat distribution but the food cannot contact that aluminum because it is covered by stainless steel.

this pot is aluminum and not induction ready, only stainless that is magnetic will function on induction. Galen S.
