Is the body of the pot stainless steel or aluminum?

I think it's stainless steel ... I use stainless steel cleaner on it and it looks great!!

The base of the pot is about 1/4 inch thick and it seems to be a separate piece that is somehow connected to it. Maybe there's aluminum in it, I don't know

The pot is stainless steel and cleans easily in the dishwasher. The lid and exterior wipe off easily.

Yes it is. However, it is not very high quality stainless steel, and it discolors with use. The inner pot is a higher quality stainless.

This pot is completely stainless steel. The only black is the handle and the lids knob.

Not that is exposed. It may have an aluminum ply internally but only T304 stainless. Our set is going on 15 years old and it's still perfect! We love it! We take a little Barkeeper's Friend and clean up the pots every so often and they gleam like new!

This pot is stainless. This is the main reason I purchased it. However I did not like the performance of this piece. It was hard to clean and the 2 halves would not seal. I did go to the Bialetti Aluminum pot. It works fine. I only tried the one stainless unit, so I don't know if another one would do the same.

The body is definitely non-ferrous; to me it looks and feels more like stainless than aluminum. The bottom is a ferrous metal, perhaps cast iron, clad by the same material as the body. No rusting or corrosion of any kind observed (also pointing to stainless as the product; aluminum kettles usually develop pitting). We do not let the pot boil to empty and we measure the water so that after use the pot is empty.

It's not stainless steel. It's either aluminum or aluminum alloy. I can't tell the difference. Hope this help.

I would guess stainless. Definitely not plastic, and too heavy for aluminum.

Not inside the pot or on the lid. Everything that touches food is 100% stainless steel. The exterior cladding on the bottom of the pan could be aluminum, but it's difficult to tell. The pan is really a good pan and well built, with a good quality stainless steel.

It's aluminum with a non-stick coating. I would have preferred cast iron, but I'm quite happy with it. Works great.

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.

No proof, but it looks like brushed stainless to me. Aluminum changes after washing over time - the coffee pot inside has not changed.

There isn't any plastic except for the little knobby handle on the lid, and of course, the pot's handle. The only thing I see that MIGHT be aluminum is the little halfround well that the "pipe" sits in.

With the exception of the wooden handle, the entire pot is stainless steel. I would never cook in aluminum - I don't even use aluminum foil.

It's all stainless steel, no aluminum parts. I love that, because there is not oxidation that you get with the aluminum.
