Hello, The entire pot including filter is made from stainless steel. I have used stove top espressos for over 20 years now, and have always found the ones from Italy to be the best. This is a heavy weight 18/10 solid stainless steel pot. Well worth the Money!

It says on the description it is made of stainless steel. Is there a reason to doubt the description. I have had two of these coffee pots now and I am assuming they are telling the truth. The basket and filter tube seems to be made of stainless steel but other than the word of the company description, I have no guarantee.

It is all stainless. So easy to clean. The charcoal filter is plastic. I ordered several packets of those to have on hand. Just make sure you clean the little filter in the motor once a week.

The pot is stainless steel and cleans easily in the dishwasher. The lid and exterior wipe off easily.

The inside of the pot is brushed stainless. Mine hasn't discolored in years of use. BUT, the plastic filter ring does become discolored. The thin silicone rubber gasket on the ring seems to discolor the most, and after a couple of years it tends to tear, needing replacement.

Appears to be all stainless steel but no for sure. Overall very happy with pot. Probably going to buy 10 gallon equivalent.

I don't purchase items made of aluminum. I'm pretty sure this is stainless steel. I threw the box away, so I cannot check completely for you.

I have every reason to believe it is stainless steel. No marking on it to back me up, but the weight of it compared to the weight of aluminum has me convinced it is stainless steel! I still love this coffe pot! I sold my electric one at the garage sale a few months ago!

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.

it is not aluminum free however it is coated with ceramic which is safe to use, a great pot, all of my frying pans and cookwear was converted to ceramic

I believe it is. It is labeled "stainless steel" on the bottom. The top and bottom pieces are definitely stainless. The inner filter piece is not labeled, but I am 99.9% sure that it is stainless as well. Those are basically the only metal parts.

The pot is described as stainless steel if it contains aluminum I could not say because I bought it believing that what amazon says in their description is the truth.

The filters are made of a very high quality plastic with aluminum outer ring. They are very nice and work great!

I'm not sure what the inner tank is made from. It looks like stainless steel, but it could be aluminum. I just add water daily to top off the pot, but over the months, some scaling does develop on the inside of the tank, so it may be prudent to clean it several times a year.

Hello Hazelnut, good evening. I would hazard a guess that it is probably stainless because the pot was probably contoured using a mold where the sheet of stainless was placed and a ram pushed it creating the pot. Making it out of 2 metals would be far more laborious and therefore costly and why my guess is that its all stainless.
