What is the inner liner made of, aluminum or stainless steel?

My husband swears that it's aluminum but I called the Crock Pot company and talked to a supervisor and he said all the lunch crocks had stainless steel. He said their website said that but he couldn't find it when I asked for it. So who really knows.

it looks aluminum but I'm sure it's a lightweight SS because it didn't pit or get that discoloration aluminum gets in the dishwasher. My husband loves it and it's really easy to clean but i do wish they had extra inner pots so I could switch off each morning if I forget to clean it the night before.

The lining of the base heating unit looks to be aluminum. The "crock" food container is shinier and could be stainless steel is quite lightweight so I can not be sure if it's stainless steel or polished aluminum.

Made out of aluminum. Be careful, it comes apart after a couple of uses! I returned mind.

There's no aluminum in ours. The element is probably high carbon stainless, because a magnet will attract it but less so than the other parts such as the pan, the brackets on the heating element, etc. So it is all steel of some sort or another. (The parts that contact the food, that is.)

Aluminum coated steel. I returned mine and bought the Whynter ICM-15LS Ice Cream Maker, Stainless Steel. I bought mine for about $200 new on line with free shipping. This is a by far superior machine. It has auto stop, temp readout, timer. It gets the ice cream really cold and will shut off when done or when overloaded. I use mine 2 to 3 times a week. Had it for about 9 months.

I think it was aluminum but don't remember. I returned it as spigot leaked.

the inner pot is stainless steel. I have had no problem with it. Mine does not have an 'internal coating'.

I believe it is just solid aluminum construction. Very heavy grade and substantial. Works great and not aware of any type of leaching. Rolls taste excellent out of it.

The inner pot is too light weight to be stainless steel. It may be aluminum that has a special coating on it. The upper tray I believe is uncoated aluminum.

I have had both. After having an aluminum one for years, I splurged and bought the stainless steel and was so disappointed in the performance that I bought a new aluminum one. I have had it for 10 years and am very pleased with it.

Quoting the box in which it came: "Tri-ply construction features layers of 18/10 stainless, aluminum, and magnetic stainless throughout the entire pan providing optimal heat distribution." So I'm guessing the inner layer is probably 18/10 and the outermost layer another type of stainless, to be magnetic.

It is aluminum but the fit is so tight on the filter that it's hard to get off once you remove it.

I have no idea, but this unit is solid. A friend has something she bought at Target, and it is lightweight in comparison. It is seamless stainless inside also. Well made. We love it. Nothing bad to say about it.

The Bayou Classic 800-4087 is made from 304 Stainless Steel however it has a three ply bottom that used aluminum in between. Hope this helps.

The stainless steel encompasses the aluminum. It is usually only for heat transfer purposes. .. I purchased this.. still going great
