Is this a plated pot metal or true stainless razor?

It is chrome plated. I'm not sure what the base metal is but it is a heafty well built excellent razor that is well balanced. Its very easy to keep clean.

It is plated metal as others have stated but it is easy to keep clean. IMO, Merkur razor handles are among the better of the handles currently available. They work great.

My pot IS rusted. I'm very disappointed because I wanted to get away from aluminum and the steel ended up rusting on the inside. It makes me believe it is not stainless steel.

The removable pot appears to be made of aluminum covered with teflon. It sits in a heavy metal (perhaps cast iron) casing around which is wrapped the brushed aluminum exterior that's visible in the picture. Appears to be solid construction.

It's stainless. I highly recommend this motor. It's plenty powerful and the foot control is awesome.

Yes it is. However, it is not very high quality stainless steel, and it discolors with use. The inner pot is a higher quality stainless.

The razor works well and i believe is stainless. If you are sensitive to stainless steel then you are probaby sensitive but I doubt it. The grip, however, is a bit of a problem for me because it is very slippery especially when wet.

Its light weight so I would have to say plastic, but it certainly is sturdy. The one I have at the house I have had since they used to sell these razors (something I have not found in a long time) It is a sturdy piece of equipment. This is why I got one for my travel kit as well here on Amazon.

No proof, but it looks like brushed stainless to me. Aluminum changes after washing over time - the coffee pot inside has not changed.

Its plated metal. Looks nice but the plating does come off making it copper colored.

It is chrome, and it holds up very well. You get the best shaves when you use Wilkinson Sword Blades, Sharks or Astra. I have a large collection of Gillette Super Speeds, Techs etc., for a double edge razor it stands right there with them with the quality of shaves you get. Always remember to make three passes for the best BBS shave, but it will work fine with only two.

I'm not positive, but I think that you're right. I just dragged it out of the cupboard to look, lol. It appears to be aluminum with a stainless steel handle. It did not cause any discolouration to the pot that it sat in.

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

As I think someone else mentioned, the whole razor appears to be chrome plated brass. I've been using the razor for 2.5 years and have done nothing more to it than rinse it each morning after use and take an old tooth brush to the place where the blade is held each week when I change blades. I've have observed no rust at all, just crud buildup from shaving which has to be washed/scrubbed out of the little crevices and spaces when the "wings" are raised to remove the blade.

Yea. It is titanium. Here is a good review with lots of information: http://sectionhiker.com/jetboil-sol-ti-titanium-cooking-system-review/. I've had a couple of these and really like it! The only downside is the lip gets very hot, which makes it difficult to drink directly out of the pot.

It's steel, just like the rest of the kettle. On the bottom it's mostly steel also with a round copper shape in the middle bout 2 and one half inches round that states " T-304 Stainless Steel-Multi-Ply 12 element, Lifetime warranty". It's the best looking and made kettle I have ever encountered, very well made.
