The fan is at our cabin, so I do not have it in front of me to answer your question. However, I believe the front grill is metal and the back grill is plastic.

It appears to be all metal. We were very happy with it and it didn't take long to install it.

No it does not have a metal grill. It is a thick plastic grill inside and outside. The placement of the grill will not allow anyone to reach the blades. This was purchased for a home that did not have attic space for whole house fan. I placed one on each end of the home. One runs on exhaust and one runs on intake.

The frame is metal; the blades and the blade housing are plastic. This fan is extremely loud, unless it is on low. Also, the piece that held the fan blades in place broke (also plastic), so I replaced it with one from an old fan that I had around that didn't work. That fixed the problem.

It is probably a strong plastic. Looks like gray metal. The most quiet fan and effective modern fan I have ever seen. If you are traditional you will not like it. I love it.

It is plastic, however it looks very similar to metal when it is installed.

Yes, the body is metal, but the door and legs are plastic. The heat comes out of a vent under the 'stove' so the body of it stays cool to the touch.

It's made of plastic. I have been looking for the vents that are metal, but haven't had any luck finding them yet

It's part plastic part metal. The brown design and lid were metal. However, rain got in somehow and all my bird food got moldy. It was extremely hard to clean so I just threw it out.

The case is plastic but it seems like metal. The cooling ribs are metal. Very well designed and sturdy build.

Blades are metal.. This fan is awesome, I haven't had a need to turn it past low... Medium and high put out a HUGE amount of air displacement.. Great buy all around.

The plate on the fan motor says 67 watts. It has a maximum height of approximately 52". It can be up to about 10 1/2" shorter. Almost all parts are metal. The circular fan base and collar, the motor housing and the nut that secures the height adjustment are plastic. The column, blades and cage are all metal. The fan feels solid, and has held up under heavy usage for the year I have owned it.

This one is plastic. I have had it mounted for several months and found it very durable.
