Are the bottoms stainless steel?

I do not believe the bottoms are stainless. It has a gray coating similar to Teflon. However, it does not clean as well as Teflon. For the price I doubt the bottoms are stainless. The larger fry pan was purchased a year ago and I liked it so well I purchased the smaller size. LJM

I purchased this set 2/18/12; it is stainless steel and all of the pots/pans have copper bottoms.

Yes they are but since they are stainless steel they are easy to clean in the sink as well. Love this product and Kitchenaide. My last one died after 32 years.

It is stainless steel on the very bottom and the silver sides you see. The black is a very durable hard plastic.

Each pot and pan is entirely stainless steel and all have copper bottoms. The skillets have a non-stick coating (black). I have this set and I love them with the exception of having to hand-wash them. They are not dishwasher safe. Despite following package insert about caring for the copper--the bottoms are no longer the pretty, shiny surfaces they were when they were new.

The bottom is stainless as well as the flip top part. I've had it for almost a year now, and it has stayed in good shape. I still really like the looks of it and the convenience of using it.

No--Stainless. I gave them for gifts this past holiday and everyone loved them. I guess they have been really sturdy.

Yes, all stainless steel except for the top. Best on the market in my mind if your a coffee drinker.

They are stainless steel. From the top of the 'S' to the bottom is about 4 inches. I will update this response, when I get back home and measure it.

These are stainless steel. Originally I purchased aluminum and had to discard them.

Pretty positive they are. I've left mine sitting in the sink for a couple of days in a row with no signs of rust. My old ones would start to rust after just a few hours.

Yes, they are smooth on the bottom. They do discolor inside; make sure to have plenty of stainless steel cleaner on hand.

No, they are not. Only the handles are stainless. The rest is chrome plated steel. A simple magnet is all that's required to prove this. Stainless steel is not magnetic. So if the magnet sticks to it, it is not stainless.

I think they are stainless steel. They are not bad though. I made a top for my boat and the kit seemed to do the job for that. Just depends on what you plan on using it for I guess

Not certain. Bottom is double clad stainless. Works very well on my gas and portable electric tops.
