Is this stainless steel or aluminum or something else?

I'm not sure - it's lightweight and sturdy, described as "silver"; it's very well and has become one of my favorite appliances. Well made!

It's a 6qt item with a 4.75 qt capacity, and I think it's stainless on the outside and aluminum, coated, on the inside, which is disappointing. I don't want any alumimin in my life. Srkeems to work just fine, though; although the action panel is not very friendly.

Pretty sure it's aluminium. My wife,who is Japanese, loves this item and uses it constantly.

I'm not sure. it is a silver metal, as the picture shows. It did rust very quickly, so I'm guessing it is steel. Not stainless.

It is not aluminum. Feels like plastic. Has a machined circular patern/texture expanding from the center outwards.

I think aluminum... not positive though. Look at the manufacturers website maybe??

Hard to say what it is made of and where because there is no labelling on it but it is not magnetic. Either aluminum or stainless steel but I'd lean more towards stainless steel.

It is most definitely aluminum. It is very strong and I am quite pleased with it. I have had it about 6 months. I installed it myself and found it very easy to do.

Negative. A magnet will not stick to the bottom, so I'm assuming its aluminum.

It did not say on package that it was stainless, I think it is aluminum, not positive though. We have used quiet often. Wife says it is very nice compared to the other non stick surface.

The stainless steel encompasses the aluminum. It is usually only for heat transfer purposes. .. I purchased this.. still going great

It appears to be aluminum and I haven't seen any rust so the manufacturer may have changed materials. Sorry I can't be more helpful...

Never got the chance to find out. What I did find out was that it was not stainless steel construction. It is aluminum which is what I was trying to avoid. Sent it back.

sorry that I cannot help. There is no indication anywhere as to what type of stainless steel this is.

The interior is stainless steel. I determined this by using a magnet. A magnet will not stick to aluminum.

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!!

I really don't know. It looks like it could be aluminum, but it's very strong, so I'm not sure.

It doesn't seem to be stainless to me - has a flat finish. Could be aluminum but it seems a bit heavy. Could also be some type of alloy but I'm not sure. It does have the heat transfer properties of aluminum.
