I think it is aluminum. As I am draining a hot canner I can pick it up and place on the drainboard.

No, it is not stainless steel. However, I hav used it many times and it has held up nicely.

The rack is lightweight and bends easily, but not too easily. I think it has aluminum in it. It won't rust, but it isn't heavy like the pressure cooker, itself. Amalia

They will all eventually rust like original style because all that they made stainless now is the new decorative sides. The rack looks like the same old chrome plating and the box says it's rust resistant (only). Beware of the false advertising above, it's not what it appears to be!

I don't think it's stainless, but it is much heavier than the previous model. I am still happy with mine after nearly a year.

I've had one that looks identical for at least 10 years. The rack itself is in great condition.....no rust at all. I love the way it looks! Very classy.

No, it is all stainless steel. Also, it is a little bit short, at least as installed on our sink. Needs to be about 2 inches longer than it is.

I don't know if it is stainless, but mine has not shown any rust. For me, it was well worth the money.

I love your poetry. In answer, yes the feeder mesh is stainless steel. We have had our feeder for some time with no rusting.

The rack is metal, not sure if it's stainless. My issue with the canner is the rippled bottom. I have a glass stovetop and it does not heat evenly, therefore it never reaches the appropriate temperature to can. I am looking for a smooth bottom one currently.

I have not seen any rust. This is honestly the best rack I have even had and would recommend it

It's steel, can't tell if stainless. Ours is over 2 years old and we are still pleased. Use it year round, even do Thanksgiving turkey on it. Never had a problem. Price was right and it fits perfectly. Highly recommend.

Hi. It's not really stainless but rather a light silver-ish metallic. Very very easy to clean. I love mine and make all my crock pot recipes in it. I highly recommend it.

The jar rack is stainless but every weld rusted the first time I used it. I contacted Ball about the rust spots but they had no cure for the problem. I kept the canner and have been using it without any problems other than that small complaint.

A magnet will not attach to the rack so that points to stainless. Please tell me if there are further reports of chrome rather than stainless!

Yep, stainless steel, just like the bottom. This is a great addition to any kitchen at a great price.
