Is the inner container (which holds the food to be pressure-cooked) made of aluminium or stainless steel?

It is Teflon coated. I returned mine - I thought it was stainless but it was not

I'm not sure of the metal content of the removable liner, but it is "Non-stick coated", inside and out, so it's definitely not stainless steel.

It is coated with a non-stick material. I believe that because of its weight that it is aluminum.

in the video provided, using a metal utensil (in this case, a soup ladle) against a non-stick surface is a sound recipe to introduce more carcinogens (PFOA/PTFE) in your blood...who needs that?

It is aluminium with a nice non-stick coating. I think the vessel is a standard size and a stainless option is available somewhere on amazon.

Everything is just plain stainless steel. We never have a problem with things sticking while pressure cooking (as long as you do not let it go dry!)

This pot is stainless steel, inside and out. No other material touching your food. I love this pot; it's very well made.

I believe it is stainless steel, then a layer of aluminum, then another layer of stainless steel. It is one of my favorite gifts to give to my friends who enjoy cooking. It will last forever, shows beautifully when served from, and comes out sparkling from the dishwasher! Enjoy it!!

The interior is metal. We use the disposable small aluminum loaf pans inside of it to warm the food. We buy those at Walmart for a reasonable price.

Yes, it has an inner layer of stainless steel that the food comes in contact with, the aluminum later (which is completely enclosed in stainless steel, so your food and kitchen surfaces never come into contact with the aluminum) and the bottom layer of stainless steel which comes in contact with the cooking surface.

The lid is heavy gauge high-profile aluminum and looks like it's made out of a single sheet. It has 2 ventilation holes and the apparent plastic handle is attached via 2 screws. The cookwell is made out of a light metal and has a non-stick coating (not teflon).

The aluminum core is in an induction-capable stainless steel disk bonded to the bottom of the pot. The pot itself is stainless steel with no nonstick coating inside.

It's a pro-clad aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel. After over 6 months of use it has preformed better than I could have wished, and at less than 1/2 the price of All-Clad

the inner pot is stainless steel. I have had no problem with it. Mine does not have an 'internal coating'.

It's made out of aluminum with a stainless steel handle. We're very pleased.

The aluminum is between the stainless steal. So stainless steal, aluminum then stainless steal again. No aluminum touches any food. You are cooking with the stainless steal. I use mine all the time and I never see the inside change colors like it did with my aluminum pressure cooker. You will love it. It is awesome.

There is just the aluminum insert. It has cooked everything better than the old crock pot I had.

The stainless steel is just the exterior of the cooker. The part that touches your food is currently a glazed stoneware. They anticipate coming out with an unglazed model by the end of the year. Nothing aluminum touches the food.

Looks like aluminum. Conducts heat (cold) like it, too. Not a problem in use, unless you're totally opposed to aluminum in food prep.
