Is it made from 181/0 or 18/8 stainless steel?

Don't know. But the metal was so thin that I cut my finger during clean up. Be careful.

It's 18/0, so will tend to discolor and rust a bit. Get 18/10 stainless for the best rust resistance

It is 18 stainless steel. The poacher is wonderful and is easy to use and clean.

Dear CB,Thank you for your inquiry.* All of our 18/0 stainless steel cookware is suitable for induction cooking. 18/0= 0 % nickel content18/8= 8% nickel content18/10= 10% nickel contentThe "18" stands for the chromium content, which is the same for all stainless steel. Durable stainless steel and the 18/0 stainless steel are always induction stove top suitable. Thank you for allowing us to be of service to you.Sincerely,Tonia D.

I have no idea, but this unit is solid. A friend has something she bought at Target, and it is lightweight in comparison. It is seamless stainless inside also. Well made. We love it. Nothing bad to say about it.

If you go to the reedandbarton website, the company itself makes no claim that this style is 18/10. It merely describes Addison as 18 chromium, which means it likely has no nickel, which means the set is likely 18/0 stainless. This will corrode and rust. 18/10 is always imprinted on the flatware if it is 18/10. Buyer beware!

It doesn't specify but they are almost certainly 18/0 rather than 18/10. That is the cheapest stainless grade NSF will certify.

SpaceCity17, it might be too late for you, but I checked directly with the manufacturer since these people who answered were only guessing and the manufacturer said, it is "18/8 stainless steel and cannot be used on an induction stove top." I hate these people who make dumb guesses. I almost bought one of these because of them.

If it's magnetic, then it's NOT 18/10 stainless, as the description claims. According to metallurgists, only lesser grades of stainless are magnetic, due to the percentage of chromium,nickel, and molybdenum that makes up 18/10 Stainless Steel.

Yes it is stainless steel - 304 Grade (18/8). The first number,18, refers to the amount of chromium present and the second represents the amount of nickel. 304 grade can have 18-20% chromium and 8% nickel. It is the most common stainless steel used in the food prep / kitchen utensil market. Hope that helps, Don (co-founder Schefs)

No plastic, no aluminum and I forgot what grade of stainless steel? I think 18/8.

18/8 and 18/10: These are the two most common grades of stainless steel used for food preparation and dining, also known as Type 304 (304 Grade) and are part of the 300 series. The first number,18, refers to the amount of chromium present and the second represents the amount of nickel. For example, 18/8 stainless steel is comprised of 18% chromium and 8% nickel.

I am guessing 18/8, definitely not 18/0. The label doesn't say. I was looking for something comparable to my old revere ware bake pan and while this is perfectly functional, it is slightly smaller and the bottom of the pan flexes a little.

The actual product is 18/8 (Chromium/Nickel). The stamped are shown at the bottom of the spoons. I do not have the box.

I believe it is 16 gauge stainless steel (or whatever the highest end stainless sink models use). It is made very well. I have seen this sink in many places for sale which leads me to believe it it made by an independent manufacturer who puts various names on the sink. The name on ours is Ariel.
