Is the body of this pit cast iron?

No, it is a steel material. Only the grille plates themselves are cast iron.

No, mine is stainless steel, not cast iron. Works well though, and I just put it in the dishwasher when done.

Yes, it is solid cast iron. If it were up to me I would just get the bigger pieces of solid hardwood and place that in the grill rather than the chips you need to use for this. Either way don't forget to soak the wood first.

Yes. The key words in the description are "stainless steel". That & cast Iron work.

Unfortunately, it is cast iron, not steel. It is great for my purpose, which is to hold things while I weld/solder/braise them. I don't anticipate putting much stress on the vice, such as if I were to be sawing some thing with my "Sawsall." I hope this helps you with your purchase.

Yes, it definitely is. I wondered too, then I was given a cuisinart cast iron version. The cuisinart brand is heavier (definitely not a good thing since all cast iron is heavy, but add food, and it's really heavy), food Tends to stick more, and the enamel is hopelessly stained. Also, the le creusetIs prettier. Definitely much much better.

Yes, it is all cast in one piece and is very well made. They use some kind of colorant on the outside to simulate a natural rock look of different colors. The color doesn't go all the way through though. when you look on the inside of the ring it is a creamy natural color. The stone cast ring is all one piece and weighs about 60 lbs. In my opinion it is one of the nicer moveable fire pits.

It is truly cast iron. Wall thickness and bottom are both about 1/4". Much heavier than a cast iron skillet

It isn't marked, but the grill and also the removable pot that holds the fuel both seem to be made of cast iron.

I don't believe it is. It is a non- stick surface however but it doesn't appear to be cast iron.

Hi, yes, its from cast iron. I cant remember the coating. I just remember once I got it, I washed it really well, then coated with olive oil and put it in the bbq to "bake" it a little. Then washed it again ( no soap this time), and began using. It is nice wok, I still have it, and use it.

Mine has a lot of weight on it, but no one piece is cast iron. I would suspect that it would have no trouble with that, assuming that the bar is firmly anchored from its ends. It is an extremely sturdy, heavy-duty piece.

I can't speak for the others. I can only tell you that ours is definitely cast iron. It's very heavy. We have a glass cook top and it takes a few minutes to heat up, but once it is heated it cooks great! I recommend cleaning it with mineral spirits and then scrubbing it with detergent BEFORE you start to season it. We love ours! Great wok for the price!

The lid is cast iron. At least mine is! I have the one in the picture. I love it!

The body is metal. Not sure what the top is made of, should ask the manufacturer.

No. It is cast iron. It is painted with stove blacking but it is sort of silver underneath. If you use it a lot the blacking will wear off. You can repaint it if you want it to look really black. I would mooch a bit from some one who has a wood stove.
