The item we received had a brushed Stainless lid. It has held up well to regular use.

I don't know. I would contact nesco and ask. There are several different versions, so I would be sure that you have the exact product number. The product info says stainless steel roaster and lid but that could read stainless steel roaster and some other kind of lid. Whatever it is made out of, mine is not flimsy.

Their website says aluminum with stainless steel handles. I hate the stainless steel handles they get hot & aren't wrapped in rubber so they burn you.

I came back here to comment on this lid. First don't put it in the over. The handle on top is some sort of plastic. More important to me is the corrosion I am getting on the underside. When I wash and wipe with paper towel the towel is cover with dark grey like corrosion. With steam on a frying pan that gray corrosion is dripping in your food. Yuck!! By the way based on the weight I am quite sure this is steel not aluminum. This time I am going for stainless steel.

Neither, just stainless steel. The lasagna come out very easily and it is easy to wash, am very happy with it and were able to bring home leftovers from my friends thanksgiving dinner with the lid, ver handy.

Yes, the interior pot and lid are stainless steel; however, the outer lid feels very tinny andseems to be made of aluminum. This was very disappointing to me and if I had known, I would have continued searching for an "all" stainless steel rice cooker.

The lid is stainless. I am pleased with the product but I have noticed the coloring on the bottom getting worn off. I slide the bottle in and out of my briefcase 6 days a week and I set it on my desk table. I'm not sure if that is a defect or if I'm expecting too much. I have not contacted the company about this because it does not affect its cooling ability. I have had the bottle about 6 months or so.

The interior is stainless steel -- 100% as far as I can tell. It does not have a non-stick surface. I do not think there is any aluminum in the lid or touching the food. It comes with a steamer/basket, which I think is stainless, as well.

Dear Jeanne, The lid on this unit, which you are inquiring about is black plastic.

The lid has plastic, but the body is all metal. Unfortunately, it rusted for me. :/

The company makes several models I have the stainless one.The body is metal. The inner valve (which is pushed down to push out air) and the lid are hard plastic.. And quoting from the Airscape Planetary web site "Designed of durable, BPA-Free, restaurant-grade stainless steel not only are the AirScape kitchen canisters non-toxic ..."

The entire lid is stainless steel. The only plastic type material is the handle you see in black and the base. The water never comes in contact with any plastic. This is a great kettle!

No, the pots and lids are heavy stainless steel. They are better quality than ours at home and my wife and I are foodies.

I believe the bottom is a very thick aluminum plate. The inside, sides & lid is completely stainless steel. in other words, the whole pot is stainless steel clad with an aluminum bottom for heat disbursement. I've had mine over 25 years and it still looks like new after regular household use. Just bought another for my sister and it is identical as my original ... not cheapened over the years. Great pot.

The spout, handle and lid are stainless steel but there is rubber seal under the lid.

The lid has no plastic. It is stainless steel. No food touches any plastic.

The container is glass but the lid is plastic. Looks like stainless steel but is not. However, I use it everyday and still looks and works great. I would advise to wash by hand and no dishwasher. I do not regret my purchase. I put hot water in the base that it sits in to warm the honey or it comes out to slow.

My first one (not from Amazon) was plastic. It broke. The one I ordered from Amazon is steel. So far, it has not broken.
