Stainless is always better but this is high quality aluminum. You can't go wrong by buying this product.

I am not sure. But let me tell you this: Weber , never again. I had to throw mine away after 3 years. The worst experience ever with Weber. 20 years ago yes that was quality. Now stainless steal???? Corrosion all over after 2 years. Weber did not respond at all to my complaints. Never again. Good luck

I think the stainless steel definitely keeps the liquid hotter longer. Plus it cleans up easier/better and doesn't hold onto flavors like the plastic ones tend to.

I did not have any problem with mine, but I got the stainless steel. Other metals do not last as long and the writing gets hard to see.

I have no experience with stainless models. The plastic model is working well for us.

I believe it has to do with the stainless steel metal being used over cheaper materials/plastics. I've paid for the more expensive version and it's very durable. Hope this helps.

no as long a it quality stainless and simplehuman use quality stainless steel a good way to test stainless steel is with a magnet and with the exception of cookware stainless should be non magnetic

Yes most definitely. It cleans up easier. Does not leave the marks or streaks that stainless has. My grey blanco sinks is 5 years old. It still looks good.

Test to be sure it is the real stainless, and not the coated stuff. Whirlpool has used both materials in different models. If you bought it because it resists fingerprints it is not likely real stainless

It's a milder stainless steel, the kind that won't leave fingerprints. So far so good, no rust.

A porcelain grill grate will be better. A stainless steel grate will tend to lose it's "non-stick" capabilities faster over time than a porcelain coated steel. A stainless steel grate, however, will give you better "sear" marks on your food due to the better heat transfer, but, unless you are in the restaurant business, or don't mind the more-frequent replacement and you really want the sear marks to stand out, the porcelain grates will last longer!

It's all about what you plan to cook. If something will be cooking slow for along time you'll be better off with the cast iron. If you need a tomato sauce or 1/2 lb of spaghetti use the SS. Pro for stainless, cleans really well, much lighter, won't chip(assuming enameled cast iron)

Yes, and one of the best I have used. All stainless is so much healthier than heating up and drinking anything in aluminum. I have this one currently. Works anywhere. Perect!

Presto's manual mentions only one functional advantage: stainless steel will work on an induction burner. I believe the aluminum spreads heat better.

U429085 is better quality and thicker. It is also more expensive. The difference is not really noticeable to me as I've bought both. But some reviewers note there is less humidity with food staying good longer.
