Is this completely 18/10 stainless steel or 18/10 stainless steel with Aluminum core in the pot's base?

The base of the pot is about 1/4 inch thick and it seems to be a separate piece that is somehow connected to it. Maybe there's aluminum in it, I don't know

I do not know. But the bottom of the pot is quite heavy (for whatever that is worth). I am very pleased with this purchase.

If this is the one I bought, the pot is completely stainless steel. Lid is glass. I really like it! Makes great rice and soup.

It's aluminum. As long as you don't put it in the dishwasher, it will stay nice and shiny. I use mine in several different stainless steel and teflon pots. The bottom is smooth so it doesn't scratch the teflon. I think it's better than the original one that came with my Presto. It's just about size and what pot or pan you are trying to fit it in. I thought it was perfect for many uses.

Correct, it is only the base that has the aluminum core. Everything else is stainless steel.

I believe it is the 18/10, but i am unsure. Also, the model on mine reads, MCP66-28. I have been very happy with it. Also, SS cleaner/polisher paste has done a great job keeping this pot in top order. It is our best large pot though we have several quality pots.

This pot is stainless steel, inside and out. No other material touching your food. I love this pot; it's very well made.

Yes it is, Its marked induction symble with all the other modes of cooking on the bottoms of the pans as well. It's also states that it is 18-10 stainless even if it failed to mention it in the discription. It all on the botton of the pans look at the pictures provided. Plus there countless people says they are using on glass tops as well as PIC portable cooktops etc. and having great results. Thanks have a good day.

It is 18 stainless steel. The poacher is wonderful and is easy to use and clean.

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

All parts of mine were completely stainless steel, no aluminum parts. I do not utilize aluminum cookware, or anti-perspirants.

I can't tell you if they are 18/10, but the pots and lids are stainless steel.

It does have an aluminum core but is completely covered with stainless steel.

I'm unsure what information you are wanting. There are well over 150 different grades of stainless steel and I doubt most people would know the percentage of chromium to steel outside of a chemist or someone in the stainless trade. I can say that this is a standard heavy commercial-grade stainless kitchen pot with a heavier steel bottom that will work on my induction stove. Because it works beautifully on the induction stove top, that is indicative that the base is slightly less 'stainless' and more 'steel'. However, the sides and top are pure commercial stainless with a satin finish. I have yet to have any scratches on any of the parts that have rusted and I use these pots on a daily basis. They were recommended to me by a professional 4-star chef who DOES know all the grades and tells me that this is a good one for standard or even commercial kitchen uses. I hope that helps you.

It's not 18/10 stainless but it's is a great value for the price. Great set I use it everyday.
