Is this 100%aluminum? Many reviewers are saying all iron or steel or iron and steel parts.

It is aluminum. It is very heavy. We live in an area with strong winds and it does not budge. we are very happy with the set by the way.

I bought this over a year ago for my back yard. I get lots of sun, rain and very little shade it that area. It has never been covered and looks like the day I bought it.Great table. Fits 8-10 really well. Highly recommend this aluminum beauty!

I don't think it's aluminum (see the weight). . It's cast iron in my opinion.

It's aluminum. If it were iron or steel it would weigh a ton! It is cast aluminum, meaning the aluminum is melted and poured into a mold. This makes the edges rough and gives it a cast iron look.

Its heavier than aluminum. Def not aluminum. Solid steel construction. Does not feel flimsy. Even the knobs and threads. Highly recomend

Yes, it is aluminum. It comes with a removable plastic cap for use when you're not using a fighting belt or chair.

Steel. I checked with a magnet - VERY strong attraction, therefore it is definitely not aluminum. (Whoever answers aluminum is likely judging by the weight. It's not as heavy as one might expect.)

It is too heavy to be aluminum, but it looks more like powder coated steel than stainless. I've had mine a couple of months and it still looks good and I like it a lot, but I see potential for it to rust at the welds.

I would guess stainless. Definitely not plastic, and too heavy for aluminum.

It is definitely Aluminium, the magnet doesn't lie. I went back to open sights so if you want to try it out a little cheaper I just listed the one I bought for $80 on amazon.

I'm not certain but I know it's not aluminum, not the one we bought and it's some form of cast iron but it's been awhile since we bought it, you should ask the seller, they should know that answer best.

it it metal, not sure if aluminum or iron. not supposed to rust. cross arm appears to be the same but I would have to walk down to the lake to check if you need to know for sure

All aluminum. Aluminum male end slides into aluminum female end, with a spring loaded metal clip that holds them together. From my experience, it is more than sturdy, and I had no worries about it breaking or coming apart.

Not being a metallurgist, I cannot say for sure, but it appears to be nothing but stainless steel. The aluminum looks to be entirely sandwiched in the base and not exposed anywhere.

First of all I do not know what a crack prone alloy is. I believe it is all aluminum.

Those parts are not pure aluminum, their is lead in the metal. My coating came off and exposed the actual metals. see my recent review. This is very dangerous lead based metal.

Its all steel. Though as my review indicated, I bought this item for only $55. I noticed that the price is way higher now. I guess it was a "steel" for me!

Yes it is made of aluminum. I did not notice a drop in performance or lack of function due to it being aluminum.

I believe it's aluminum. Steel would be too heavy to lift as easily as this does.
