is the inner stainless steel or aluminium?

I called the company about the liner because it is nonstick. It is very light weight so I think it is aluminum, but it is coated with nonstick. The lady told me that nonstick is bad for you only if it reaches a certain temperature, that this cooker never reaches. Of course, if the liner chips, I will no longer use it. But I think if you wash it gently, it will be okay for a long time. I got mine at a clearance price at Target and it works well so I decided to keep it. You have to spend a lot of money to get one with a stainless liner.

I think its stainless? either way its an awesome product. My main inteest in buying it was to make brown rice I can cook white rice successfully but my brown was a mess. However, since buying this cooker my brown rice is now awesome! It can also cook rice with multiple ingredients and the rice still comes out awesome! i love it.

I'm not sure of the inner pot, but aluminum sounds like a good guess. It is coated with a non-stick material which is similar to what the more quality pots and pans are coated with, like Circulon, etc. I don't think it's Teflon unless they've re-worked their formula. I like it very much; doesn't scratch or peel off.

The inside is stainless steel, I have been using mine for over two years daily, through out the day. I am very satisfied with this product.

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

The inside is stainless steel, but I would say that the finish on the inside is more like "satin" vs. polished. I hope that this is helpful

the inside is ceramic, just the heating mechanism is metal. don't know what kind of metal, but think its stainless cause it does't rust.

It is mostly stainless steel inside except where the handle points protrude inward with plastic parts. Overall, still very happy with my purchase after all this time.

All visible interior parts appear to be stainless steel. I LOVE my percolator!

There are two blades that are stainless steel. They mount on a shaft and crimped onto the shaft. The shaft runs through a metal bushing that is imbedded in the black body. This threads into the driven gear where a metal insert is. I do not know what metal the bushing and threaded insert is, but it looks like stainless steel. It might also be aluminum, but I doubt it. I do not know what you mean by an inner plate. Mine do not have any other metal parts other than described here.

Not sure, inside is 18/10. middle is 1050 aluminum, outside is 26/10. In SS the X/Y is chromium/nickle not gage.

I'm not sure what the inner tank is made from. It looks like stainless steel, but it could be aluminum. I just add water daily to top off the pot, but over the months, some scaling does develop on the inside of the tank, so it may be prudent to clean it several times a year.

The pot is described as stainless steel if it contains aluminum I could not say because I bought it believing that what amazon says in their description is the truth.
