is this 100% stainless steel? or does it also contain toxic nonstick/aluminum? thx

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.

No part of it is nonstick. If it were, I would not be using it daily--or at all!

It is 18/10 which means 18% chromium and 10% nickel which means it usually costs more. Also means it is rust resistant, durable,easy to maintain and has brilliant luster. Aluminum is not mentioned at all. You can research the 18/10 ratio but feel as if this pretty standard. I am very pleased with the nor pro and had some of the same concerns with aluminum hope this helps.

This is not nonstick aluminum, all stainless as far as I know. It was a gift for someone.

The bottom of the pan says 18/10 Stainless Inox Rostfrei. I googled Inox Rostfrei, and it all pointed to stainless steel knives, utensils, and kitchenware, some of which are written in German. It is not nonstick.

I am not certain - likely aluminum. It is light weight enough to manage easily. Non stick coating works very well - we've enjoyed this treat MANY times over. I am very happy with this pan.

The pan seems to be stainless. It's definitely metal and not magnetic. Do be aware, though, that this is a VERY noisy unit.lj

It is not stainless...it is non-stick. It really works with rice because it doesn't stick and is easy to clean.

It did not say on package that it was stainless, I think it is aluminum, not positive though. We have used quiet often. Wife says it is very nice compared to the other non stick surface.

Their website says aluminum with stainless steel handles. I hate the stainless steel handles they get hot & aren't wrapped in rubber so they burn you.

It is not made of aluminum, it is made of steel with a non-stick coating. I would doubt that it would rust with the non-stick coating but I have not had it long enough to know for sure. It does say it has a 5 year warranty, so if it rusts, they should be willing to let you return it.

Mine is stainless steel. There is no nonstick coating to speak of. It's not like a coating you might find on a pan or pot, it's simply stainless steel. With a little oil, I have had no issues.

It's stainless steel. I think the handles are different. I use Kleen King to clean these and thats for Stainless steel, they clean up very nice too. There very durable and you don't need oven mitts to handle them. Best cookware we ever got. They're not "non-stick" but as long to use the correct temperature and fire height, you will be fine.

re: "It is a form of steel containing chromium, resistant to tarnishing and rust" ...is stainless steel.This pan is not made of stainless steel. It is aluminized steel, which is plain old rust-prone carbon steel, with an aluminum coating:(ref.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminized_steel). It is in general terms similar to galvanized steel, but using aluminum-silicon alloy instead of zinc.

Wrong. I own it. The pot is definitely not stainless steel and it does have a non stick surface. Mine burned and the nonstick peeled. Not safe to use after this happens. I'm buying a new one.

Hi! LB, This it made by All-Clad just like most of my stainless steal pots and pans. It is completely nonstick flat black outside always looks new. I was afraid materials in nonstick would diminish my mental capacity but, to late. I now wish I had this Emeril collection of nonstick.

Stainless steel...there is no aluminum on this product. You will love it. I do.

I called the company about the liner because it is nonstick. It is very light weight so I think it is aluminum, but it is coated with nonstick. The lady told me that nonstick is bad for you only if it reaches a certain temperature, that this cooker never reaches. Of course, if the liner chips, I will no longer use it. But I think if you wash it gently, it will be okay for a long time. I got mine at a clearance price at Target and it works well so I decided to keep it. You have to spend a lot of money to get one with a stainless liner.

Yes, the inside is stainless steel; there is NO nonstick coating at all. I love this skillet!

It is certified all aluminum. Heats quickly and cleans up very nicely. Highly recommended.

No non-stick or aluminum. All very thick stainless. Because of the thickness of the bottom you don't scorch food.
