Is the lid plastic or metal?

I was looking around for that, too. I actually ended up getting the Thermos 10-oz. "Thermos Flower Food Jar - Purple (10 oz.)" (there are also "fashion" and "lava" designs) because the cap was stainless steel...though only on the outside, as it turned out. All the food jars I've been able to actually examine in person have plastic on the inside of the lid, with plastic threads for the screw-top and sometimes a kind of silicone-type O-ring as well. Having read a lot of mixed and poor reviews for stainless-steel caps on water bottles, I suspect it's pretty hard to get a good, easy-closing seal with stainless steel on stainless steel....

It is plastic, but very thick and sturdy. I LOVE mine and highly recommend it!

It's plastic. But it's pretty sturdy, we've used ours several times since we got it.

The clear lid is plastic,yes.My base unit, surprisingly, seems to be all metal.It works all right, but mine is REALLY hard boiling 6 eggs. The centers are a very, very deep gold.Hmmmm.It is also a lot smaller than the old West Bend it replaces. But it fits in the wall cabinet better.So far, I am giving it a 3 out of 5.I will update later.

It is a plastic. However it is better made than the rectangular containers which do tend to crack. So far I have had not any problems after three month of heavy use.

No it is not plastic. It is a fabric material and the lid has no closure. I have to tape the top closed every year. I store mine the in garage where the moisture is not so high. I would not buy it again.

It's a black lid. I'm pretty sure it more of a metal material but it seems like it's lined with plastic, if that makes sense.

No. The interior, including the lid, is completely metal. The only plastic is the black parts you see in the photo. I hope this helps! ;)

Hard plastic, with some flexibility. Lid has not cracked. Pan is 5cm or about 2 1/4 inches deep.

Honestly, I do not know. The inside is metal and the only plastic is the screw on lid.

The spout is plastic, the lid or cup inner is also plastic with the outside being metal.

The lid is plastic. Can only be used with upper pan and not on lower flat heat plate. This our second one. Love it and cleans up so well.

Plastic but appears sturdy. Spend another $66 and you can buy the model with a metal lid ($166 currently on Amazon)

The container is glass but the lid is plastic. Looks like stainless steel but is not. However, I use it everyday and still looks and works great. I would advise to wash by hand and no dishwasher. I do not regret my purchase. I put hot water in the base that it sits in to warm the honey or it comes out to slow.

It is plastic but of a heavier grade than many. It is about 1" thick and the hinges are metal.

The lid is plastic. The diameter I would guess is 2 inches from side to side.

It is all plastic. Be careful not to force the hinges or they will break. You just have to be sure you have the lid lined up with the base properly.
