I was pleasantly surprised at how sturdy this headboard actually is. To answer your question, Faith, it's not plastic. It's all metal, and heavier than you'd expect for this price.

The tubes I got appear to be nylon rather than plastic. They are pretty sturdy. The unit is in storage so I can't measure the base but I can say you will need to mount it on 2 by's or a sheet of plywood for 1 person operation. Best if you can mount it to the table.

I do not think it's plastic. There is a small sealant around the heating device, but there's no way to know what kind of bonding agents are used.

It is plastic but with a chrome finish. I think the hose part might be metal.

Mostly plastic, the tube itself I think is aluminum. This thing is not really worth the money, I found it heavy and bulky especially for snowboarding.

Yes it is plastic, but a sturdy plastic handle. Not one you would break easily. I believe the solid brass diverter valve is on the inside of the unit. It is a sturdy unit and I like it. My sister who is handicapped has no problem using it.

Yep. Plastic. I have had two of them. They are rugged enough for what they are meant for. However. Do not leave them out with water in them if you get below freezing temps as that will mean you will need to buy a second one as well. :).

The tubes are plastic and My unit is in storage. I use it on a table and use to large c clamps to hold it down. Its better if you have 2 people when using it.

All plastic, even the tube. It is just painted as mental spiral tube. The tube is so rigid that the whole thing will move with you like a garden hose. I returned it to vendor and was charged 15% "restocking fee". Never buy it

The body of the spout is metal, whereas the fittings/adaptors are plastic. Hope this helps.

It's made of plastic, about 3/8ths diameter and very sturdy. Nice thing about that is that should it ever develop problems it should be very easy to find a replacement piece of plastic tubing to fix it with!Good luckBrian

It is plastic. I bought 2 so I would have a spare when the connector on the shower head broke as my previous one did.

No it was plastic, but mine has been great ever since we put it in. Good luck

I believe it's plastic, and the spouts have leaked on both of mine since day 1. My husband spent quite a bit of time trying to tighten the pieces, but he was only able to get 1 of them to stop leaking. Hope this is helpful.

Not sure, I think it is. It is very durable and solid so I don't think its plastic.

Hi Ed - the body is plastic. Only the 1/2" male pipe nipples are brass. I haven't installed mine yet, but it does look like a nice little pump and perfect for my solar application.

This is hard plastic not metal. Seems to work great though with no leaks or dripping. Descent quality! Good luck to you!
