Is the entire thing steel? Any plastic parts inside?

It is all steel very sturdy construction and well made, and looks nice if you like a simple minimal design, hope that helps

I think that is a plastic piece on top, under the shiny knob. Mine arrived bent and I returned it after a couple uses. I did not like heating on the stove - the metal gets so hot. I don't like all the cleaning. I bought a decent battery powered frother and it works great.

Yes it's like a sandwich of plastic frame securing the fine screen and it does go into the milk for the perhaps thirty seconds of plunging. Picture a lattice window frame to imagine the amount of plastic. I find that frothing the milk cold makes for a creamier experience, so heat never really has to be part of the process. The type of plastic is unknown but I'd like to think they didn't use a kind that leaches any chemicals, especially with no heat exposure.

The beaker is steel. The plastic parts on the plunger are above the lid to keep the steel rod in place, and it makes up the housing for the screen that fits within the walls of the beaker. It's pretty solid all around.

steel....no plastic parts. My very picky husband who will only use good equipment. No "junk". He was well pleased.

It's wood like, not steel! It has plastic parts, one of the cup holders as cracked when I got it.

It's all metal. Have had mine for 3 years and love it. Recently ordered ones for my daughters.

Yes, it is stainless steel inside, all buttons are moving.Printing and plastic quality on the outer shell is very good as well. I would question stability though, when you have it filled with liquid, it tends to dangerously tilt, it is stable but you may end up with a mess on your desktop. Just be careful or put it away from your stuff.

It is pretty heavy, I do not think it is plastic. I checked it before the installation, I saw metal inside (copper or brass).

No! And, is a piece of crap. Over 50% plastic and only one section in metal. Very fragile. Mine came broken. Thrown away.

Everything is steel except the removal hard plastic percolator top. We love ours. Just came back from 5 days camping on CA beaches.

No - it's all plastic parts. It's really not very sturdy at all and does NOT meet expectations. :-(

There are a couple of plastic parts- the water level window and the filter apparatus. The interior is mostly metal.

it's all metal on the inside. However, the stopper on top (to seal the thermos) is made of plastic.

Most of the inside is metal. The top, where the lid screws on, is plastic but that only goes down 3/4 of an inch or so.

No, there are no plastic parts on the inside. The handle is the only thing that is plastic. It's the reason I bought this one, I too did not want my coffee touching plastic. You'll be good with this one, get it.
