Is the body of this metal or plastic. I know there are about 20 different versions of these, probably all chinese, but some are cheap plastic

This also has a plastic body with metal screws. It doesn't feel cheap, like it will easily fall apart. I dropped it once (on accident) and it still functions.

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

HI. I think it is a hard plastic, like PVC. Not a metal ou iron figure. There are metal parts inside, for the light mechanism

I do believe it is made of plastic. I have no idea where it was made. If you have not purchased this item yet, I would not recommend it. Spend a little more and get a metal one.

It was actually metal. I was surprised when I received it. I figured it would be plastic for the price. Only draw back is shipping. Took close to a month to receive due to being shipped from overseas.

Its plastic and metal. Mine did not survive indoor use even, so I would not recommend it for outdoor use.. Or not recommend it at all.

Arun, The first one I purchased over 5 years ago is metal,my new one purchased a few months ago appears to be plastic (I haven't used it yet). I hope it works well,but now that you have called this to my attention I am dubious.

Plastic body, pretty solid, kinda cheap buttons and metal prongs but it'll do the job.. The one I bought was lost after I bought it so that's all I remember :) blessings!

Its plastic. And very weak. The metal only goes into the plastic handle for about 1/2". Mine snapped in half, I just posted a couple of photos.

The base and neck and all connection parts are brass and metal. The bell shaped pull out with the spray button is plastic. I shopped around quite a bit before buying mine and they are all like that regardless of manufacturer. But it's not cheap plastic. It has a nice feel to it and is finished identical to the rest of it. Besides, it adds an insulation factor. A metal one would get too hot to hold when using hot water such as washing dishes or scrubbing the sink.

Sorry, I don't know. I bought this shower head thinking it was all metal construction. When I got it I realized it was all plastic meant to look like metal. I returned it immediately. It looked and felt like Chinese garbage.

It is plastic. The holder is ok but I wish I had got the metal one. Hope this helps.

The one I have is plastic. I am very pleased with the item. It doesn't feel "cheaply made". I would recommend. It works great for me.

Plastic. I wonder if others were sent a different item. With the one I got, there is no question that there is no wood, no brass, nor even brass colored bass metal. It is all obviously cheap plastic. Very deceptive description. If you put this magnifying glass under a magnifying glass it would probably melt. Don't reward deception -- skip this.

It is metal. The Amazon description can tell you more. And I remember those metal of years ago, but I remember how I loved it. Just wish I still had those treasures of days gone by now. Hope it works out for you and I hope I helped you somewhat.
