What is the pan made of? Aluminum? It does not look like chrome or stainless steel.

It is a sturdy aluminum and cleans up fantastically. It is a very nice pan and well worth the money.

It says that it is made of "aluminized steel" but feels more like just aluminum. Also appears to have a somewhat thin teflon-like coating. As noted in my review, teflon had shown some wear upon receipt from shipment contact with the rack.

The pan seems to be stainless. It's definitely metal and not magnetic. Do be aware, though, that this is a VERY noisy unit.lj

product description states ... "The durable pan is made of heavy gauge aluminized steel". Definitely not Aluminum! steel it is ... in weight, inflexibility, and some rough edges. quick online search reveals ... Aluminized steel is steel that has been hot-dip coated on both sides with a aluminum-silicon alloy.

Well I have it for a couple of mths and it hasn't rust so I believe it is a true aluminum pan

It is made of high quality anodized aluminum which is great for even heating. I have been using the 3 and 1/2 liter pan for 2 Months and am in love with this product!

I don't have the pan in front of me, but the company website says aluminum. I'm not sure if there any any other materials in the base. The handle is stainless steel and rubber.

I know the new answer is stainless. But I have used aluminum all my life and never had any problems. I know when I need another pan it will be aluminum. Lighter heats faster, cooks more uniformly. Aluminum would always be my choice.

The pan is made of aluminum. The construction distributes heat evenly, giving both sides a perfectly browned finish.

To tell you the truth, I don't really know. I always assumed it was aluminum, and if I had to guess, the knife, fork, and spoon (made by a different company) are made from a different metal. So if this were a guessing game, my choice is aluminum pan and stainless steel knife, fork, and spoon. My frypan is marked U.S. Wyott,

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.

I will say this. Many of Calpalon's pans are non-stick steel. This pan is anodized aluminum (bought it from another online retailer). It is much lighter but realize that aluminum will not hold up as well as iron/steel.

It has an enamel coating. The pan is made of cast iron. It is a great skillet.

It is not stainless and it is most likely aluminium but coated with a non-stick surface.

Not being a metallurgist, I cannot say for sure, but it appears to be nothing but stainless steel. The aluminum looks to be entirely sandwiched in the base and not exposed anywhere.

I am not certain - likely aluminum. It is light weight enough to manage easily. Non stick coating works very well - we've enjoyed this treat MANY times over. I am very happy with this pan.
