Is the internal diverting mechanism made of stainless steel? Last T-handle diverter rusted &amp; then broke internally within 3 mo.

Laura, I'm not sure whether or not it's made of steel, but, having used this for a few months now, I can definitively say that it is a SOLID product and way better than any of the cheaper ones I've had in the past. It's pricey, but well worth it.

The handle appears to be stainless. It has never rusted. I don't carry it by the handle. Love this compost container! We recently completely remodeled our kitchen, major redo, and it looks great in the new kitchen.

Yep it's a T handle....but save your money, it' a real bad design, as the shaft is held in by a soft aluminum pin...after about 10 cases it starts to turn inside & makes it a pile of junk.... I have sent mine back to Hornady & they sent it back with the same crappy round pin...It needs a keyway cut into it with a square piece of stock to hold it in place.... For the money it's just not worth the hassle....till they fix it right....

What's impressive to me is that I have disassemble my last one and not just was it stainless, but the innards (nuts, bolts, washers), many were stainless. The internal construction was high quality with anything that touches water being surgical high end tubes and wiring. I got just a touch of rust on mine near the rim of the basin. That said, if you use this as much as we did (daily) you probably won't have it for five years. Ours made it two and a half which bothered me until I thought about how often I used it and how useful it was. I went out and bought another and expect the same lifespan. I'd buy another when that breaks down. I really think they are the best on the market since every other kettle and heater I used fell apart in six months. Probably the only thing I didn't expect is how often I had to clean the inside from how dirty our tap water really is, even with filtration. Hope this helps.

Sorry Carol,Mine rusted out so quickly that I got rid of it in three months time. If it were made of stainless steel it would have been perfect.

I don't see anything to indicate where it was manufactured. Nevertheless , for the money, I would look elsewhere. The handle broke on me at the weld, spilling hot water all over. I had it rewelded for around $25. All they do is boil water, so why spend so much, especially if they are not made well.

Sorry for the delay to your inquiry. I have been away from my computer. As to your question. The section which leaked almost immediately upon use is made of plastic. The leak ocurred at the very base of the handle.

The back portion of the handle is staiinless steel, and the front portion is of exactly the same color but seems to be of a rougher surface to maintain a better grip, and so I image the front portion of the handle to be of some plastic material, but difficult to distinguish from stainless. As you see in the picture, the darker parts that contain the rubber nibs where the water comes through are of plastic material, including the main middle portion of the fixed unit. The hose is of stainless steel and the levers on the main unit and handle as well.

the top portion (handle, spout and lid) are made of metal with a very shiny surface. I'm not sure if it is stainless steel like the main body of the vessel but the entire pot is very solid. I think the stopper attached to the lid is made of silicone.

Contrary to the other answer here, this razor is certainly not made of stainless steel. It is much more likely a brass handle and zinc head, both coated with chrome and/or nickel.

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.

Not sure if its stainless steel. Pressing handle is not steady at all. The roti came out uneven and never puffed up. So I ended up returning it.Hope this helps!

Shona, the lid and pouring spout are heavy duty black plastic, as you see the from the picture, as is the handle and the exterior black wrap.For me these 20 years of using this thermos, there has never been a problem. While the filter and plunger are metal, I could not say they are stainless steel as the body and interior are. Sorry if this makes this dynamo press not a good choice for you.

There is a metal screw and 2 rivets on the inside of the lid that holds the handle on, however, I've used it quite a bit and have had no issues with rust. I'll see if I can attach a photo for you to see.

The inside of the plunger is made out of metal or stainless steel. The bottom of the lid is plastic. The handle is plastic and so is the top of the plunger. Very sturdy and well made in my opinion.
