What is it made out of? Aluminum, stainless steel, nickel?

Ha ha--I skipped metallurgy in college. My wild guess is an alloy. It is light but sturdy. I have put 4 pounds of fruit in it and it holds up fine. All I can really tell you is it is pretty.

Everything seems to be made of steel that is chrome plated. The chains that come with the set are not very strong and if you intend to place heavy items in the baskets, you may want to replace the chains. However, I put a five pound bag of potatoes in the lower basket, about a pound of onions in the middle, and a few bulbs of garlic in the top and have not had any problems. I did purchase heavier chains from a local "home" "depot" type of store, but have not needed them. Only spent a dollar on the chains.

for sure NOT aluminum. It's very sturdy, holds 5 lbs potatoes, 2-3 lbs apples in center and bananas on top for me. I keep it hung in the breezeway. Whatever metal it is, it's strong and does not tarnish.

It's made out of aluminum. The sprayer part inside is plastic. It's well made and pretty strong.

Seems to be a little too light to be stainless steel. If I were to guess I'd say maybe aluminum.

It's made of plastic and its about 3/4" X 1 3/4". I've previously had one that was made of aluminum, but I haven't been able to find another one.

I believe it's aluminum. Whatever, it works like a charm on the gas stove in our RV which only has one adjustable burner (and not very adjustable, at that). With it, I can make bernaisse sauce, cream soups, all sorts of things I couldn't cook before. I'm thrilled with it.

Not being a metallurgist, I cannot say for sure, but it appears to be nothing but stainless steel. The aluminum looks to be entirely sandwiched in the base and not exposed anywhere.

its aluminum and so far seems pretty well made. I've only used it twice so far but I have no problems with it so far

I think it's brushed aluminium or stainless steel. I don't think it's nickel.

The main parts are Stainless Steel. There are 3 small, short 'legs' or 'feet' the hold it up out of the water, those appear to be made of aluminum.

Pretty much all aluminum, with some plastic bits. I'm very pleased with it.

Yes. It's made of all aluminum. I've been using it for 3 month with no issue. Great product.

Hi. It is metal. I am not sure about stainless, Will say I use it religiously and has been a great product for the price. Love the retractable cord

It's a pro-clad aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel. After over 6 months of use it has preformed better than I could have wished, and at less than 1/2 the price of All-Clad
