Everything is steel except the removal hard plastic percolator top. We love ours. Just came back from 5 days camping on CA beaches.

Though I don't have an XRF to verify the exact metal type/grade, I believe it is all stainless steel. Its surely looks like stainless, and it has the rigidity and weight of stainless. As well, I assume that it is 304 stainless steel because we have used it to brew lots of coffee, and there has been zero discoloration/staining. We have the 8-cup percolator. It makes great coffee, we highly recommend it.

I'll be honest, I really can't tell. It seems heavier than cheaper percolator filtters that I have seen at places like WALMART, but it is not as heavy gauge a metal as the vessel itself. Still, a great percolator that I use almost daily.

The cover is steel as opposed to TWS aluminum cover so its much more durable. I own both and both hold zero the same as far as I can tell. Fitting was simple.

Frame is made of a sturdy metal (not steel). Holds up well to cleaning. My husband uses air compressor and power washer to clean them every 3 months. Love them. We need 5 filters and have saved almost $300.00 in a year!

It is most definitely aluminum. It is very strong and I am quite pleased with it. I have had it about 6 months. I installed it myself and found it very easy to do.

I received mine today, IT IS METAL. Not sure why anyone says it's plastic or nylon, but I can confirm it is not. The black structure is made from plastic, but the filter itself is made from stainless steel.

Metal. This little item has made removing my oil filter and fuel filter on my 05 Ford Diesel much much easier.

It's a thick-feeling metal, I'm not sure if it's steel or aluminum but it's very sturdy and feels heavy in your hand. Works great!

Mine is made of glass, but the filter I use is copper. The remainder is made from plastic.

I believe it is steel but coated with aluminum not sure as I did not try magnets on it

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

The upper and lower filters are both stainless steel. No aluminum at all in this coffee maker.I have a pot on the stove as we speak!

The tank is made of metal. The filter housings are all plastic. Hope that answers your question.

Aluminum. Had one for work and purchased one personally. I really like the unit.

I believe it is steel. Very nice and looks much better than those ugly hose reels.

No, it looks like aluminum. It feels too light to be steel. It works well, though. I have used it to make large batches of dough and the machine and the hook worked as well as my old Kithen Aid.

As far as I can tell it is an Aprilaire filter. Frame is hard plastic, fits well. I am on my second one and am very satisfied with it.
