what type of metal is beneath the enamel?

I want to say the same as a soup can, but thicker. the enamel chips but I bought it for someone with tremors, who was tired of plastic dishes. my grand daughter and I eat off them and had zero chips. only the cups and it could again, be from getting dropped daily. I think you'll find the quality okay. it is not stainless steel, but some kind of steel or tin like a can. The price convenience and appearance are all pretty good.

The material is enamel, not Teflon. It has nonstick properties when the pan is used as designed, but is not inherently nonstick like Teflon. The pan is cast iron under the enamel - no aluminum anywhere.

It was all metal housing. I returned it cause it didn't get hot enough. I wouldn't recommend this one ;(

Think of enamel like glass. Resistant to most everything but DONT use metal utensils EVER!

No - metal on inside is not coated with enamel.looks great though! have to admit I never used it as now living with induction cooktop and this is not for induction heat.

The description says that it is chrome plated, but does not specify what it is under the plating. Judging from the weight, I'm guessing that it is stainless steel.

Yes it is. .. black enamel. I love mine. .. I've had it about 5 months and it's great.

They're coated steel. Scraped a little off one jaw and saw silver metal underneath. Also found that a magnet clamped to it easily indicating ferrous content. Copper is a bit soft for the kind of work you want these jaws to stand up to, thus making the steel 'backbone' necessary I guess.

Metal. Best camera I ever had. I misplaced it and have been using a backup but if I don't find it soon (it has to be somewhere in my house), I am going to buy another because it was that good.

I cannot tell from the text whether you are asking "which is it, metal or plastic?" or "which metal and/or plastic is it?" I cannot answer the second, so will do my best with the first. It appears to be non-conductive paint or plastic over a metal shell. I measure electrical continuity between the added weight screw thread (between the elongated cartridge mount holes) and the rear connector mounting. The metal is not iron; it does not attract a magnet.I hope this helps.

No. I called Cuisinart's customer service. The representative took the time to look it up: "No sir, there is no lead in the enamel."

Interesting to see so many mention black enamel. I have always thought it was black teflon (non-stick coating). Since I don't like teflon, I would be happier if it were enamel or something inert. I guess the only way to know for sure is to call the company, since I don't want to scratch mine to find out for sure.

It is black inside. Truthfully, I am not sure if it is enamel or it is steel.

It appears to be a plastic coated metal. The inside does not stain quickly.

probably porcelain or ceramics. I'm not sure exactly. Because they are made in Japan, I don't think they contain any heavy metal.

Yes, there appears to be some kind of silver coating over the metal. I have a small spot on the top of my cage that somehow it was nicked off and i see darker metal underneath. Hope that helps �
