According to the box it is. I bought the set as a christmas gift. So haven't seen for myself. Betty A.

I believe it is aluminum but not sure. I have had no problems with mine and use it a lot.

I don't think so paint pealing off reveals case is aluminum. It still is a good case and I am happy

It's a small aluminum container. Definitely not plastic. The other reviewer may have ordered the larger one which is plastic.

Chemical-nonstick coated aluminum? Blech!! Will avoid this product for sure. Thanks

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

No. It sure looks like stainless. I am not 100% sure, though. It certainly doesn't look like aluminum.The seller should post this kind of information, I think.

I called the customer service line to ask this specific question because in the past i have had terrible reactions to aluminum, mainly that I can't think straight after using aluminum cooking products. The woman at the end of the line said that it is Breville's company policy not to disclose the materials used to make their products. Seems fishy and misleading. I will be returning this product, I just cannot take the risk. BTW- I tried to see if I could take a peak inside but it was too complicated.

Yes this product is made of aluminum but Maurice Franklin also make it in plastic and copper, more info in their web site: http://www.mflouver.com/products_services.html

No, it is not. It is a plastic of some kind. The manufacturer does not say what kind.

Yes, unless there has been a recent change. I ordered this from Amazon and it is cast aluminum. Works beautifully.

It's not polished aluminum. It's a composite plastic, very durable. It's an OEM part.

I didn't see it mentioned but almost for sure no. Look for dome transitioning solution to bond the al with cu before the wire nut

i'm not sure if it is or isn't aluminium, but it was strong and sturdy, very solid i don't think it would reshape upon use, it will keep it's shape

It is metal and lightweight. So I assume it is aluminum. But I'm not certain, sorry.

defin. not polymer/hardened aluminum but can be purchased cheaper elsewhere as I found out after I bought it here.
