Is the inner basket also stainless steel?

No, the inner basket is some kind of plastic. It is easily cleaned, however.

yes, the basket is plastic. Our church has been using this coffee pot for many functions and the basket looks as new as day 1. Highly recommend.

The drainer is stainless steel. I worried about that also when ordering it but am happy it really is stainless steel. The extra chrome plated basket I ordered from elsewhere at the same time shows rust & wear. The drainer is just like new.

Yes, it is entirely stainless steel inside. The only plastic components are the ones you see in the picture, including the par that the lid screws onto. I've been really happy with mine!

The basket is magnetic, indicating that it is stainless steel and not aluminum. However a magnet does not stick to the basket lid or the perk tube so these parts could not be definitively identified as stainless steel.

I believe it is. It appears to be all one piece but the outside is a beautiful copper with a stainless interior. I love mine and several friends have ordered since I received mine and everyone has been pleased.

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.

Yes it is. However, it is not very high quality stainless steel, and it discolors with use. The inner pot is a higher quality stainless.

Yes it is. It's stainless steel on the inside and out. It's also insulated so it looks a lot thinner on the inside than outside.

Yes. The only parts not stainless are the lid, handle, and rubber non-skid bottom

No, unfortunately, it's plastic. There's popular mall tea store that has a brewer that has a stainless steel basket at a high price.

Mine is stainless steel. Put a magnet to the basket is it is magnetic then it's a magnetic (stainless ) steel.

I don't know the type of metal the basket is made from but it is metal. It is not plastic painted chrome colored. It's holding up well (sweet potatos, bananas, peppers, papayas & peaches - some heavy items) so I don't think I will need to replace it anytime soon with a more expensive one as I initially was prepared to do. I plan to get another one. Surprisingly I couldn't find a chrome chain so we spray painted a chain chrome colored to match and it looks great!
