Is the mixing bowl stainless steel

Yes, and I have made a lot of great ice cream. However, I have had to do it manually; with the crank. The motor broke after about five uses.

No. In fact, none of what touches the food is stainless steel. I wrote to Cuisinart and they said all Cuisinart bowls are aluminum coated with Xylan, a fluoropolymer non-stick material. The paddles are plastic.

No, it's stainless steel, like the rest of the perculator. Well made for the price !

Do not believe it is stainless; manufacturers usually promote the stainless aspect, since it is 4X more expensive. It is probably stamped carbon steel, but we have not tested for composition. Sorry.

No It Is Not Stainless Steel, It Is a Steal Container With a Non Stick Coating And It's Made For The Dishwasher. Great Product.

The small stirring attachments are plastic but not sure if they're BPA free. The majority of the item is stainless steel.

I thought it was metal, but it is chrome painted plastic. Doesn't feel cheap though. I was a little disappointed, but it is a good mixer.

No, it is stainless however and very easy to clean. This is a good quality stainless, not a cheapie.

My wife uses this product regularly. Looking at it, the lower portion of the blender (the part that comes in contact is steel (stainless, it would appear) except for the outer circumference of the rim which has a molded plastic edge piece where it would come into contact with a bowl or glass during blending. The chopping bowl is plastic and has the recycling triangle on the bottom that says "7" and "SAN" and has a picture of a fork on it -perhaps indicating that it is "safe".

No it is smooth stainless steel and if something doesn't wash out, such as bean stain, I polish it with Bar Keeper's friend. My pots, I have used for many years, still look and cook like new. Corinne T.

yes one of the beaters has a rubber nob on the end and it turns the bowl while it mixes very nice mixer for the price have used mine quite a bit when i first got it and had no problems with it.

The stainless steel bowl would certainly be dishwasher safe. I am not sure about the plastic components. I hand wash this kind of stuff so don't pay much attention to what is dishwasher safe other than plates and glasses.

It is stainless but I don't know the metalurgy. Cooks Illustrated rates it as their favorite and I love it. Comes super sharp.

The bowl is stainless steel. It is NOT removable and is part of the top surface of the machine. Some people complain that not being removable makes it hard to clean, but I find it very easy. Being one piece means that there are no seams or other places that require special attention. This is a beatiful, well built machine.

I love your poetry. In answer, yes the feeder mesh is stainless steel. We have had our feeder for some time with no rusting.

Hi Darlene, It is very heavy but I'm not sure if it's stainless steel. I never have put it in my dishwasher, just because I was concerned that it might loose it's finish.

Yes it is. The gears are metal as opposed to plastic gears in the KitchenAid mixer.
