This product IS metal with white painted rim- awful. I returned them and purchased these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/cr/B008RPSVW4/ref=mw_dp_cr The product in the link is NOT shiny chrome but the ENTIRE can is polished nickel; however, I could not find anything on Amazon that was chrome without the painted white rim. I replaced all my painted white reassessed lighting covers on the 1st floor of my house with the product in the link I provided and with painted ceilings they look AMAZING. I will be using the same product to replace all the white recessed lighting covers on the 2nd floor of my house when I'm finished getting the ceilings painted. The product I provided in the link is extremely high quality and 1/2 the price. Good luck! This product IS metal with white painted rim- awful.

Yes the trim ring is opaque (metal) and the glass comes out. I used this to replace a plastic trim ring that came with house mounted in the ceiling of an outside portico. It hardened and cracked after 8 years. This product is perfect replacement.

Plastic with "Silver" finish. Not shiny. Fits in my '03 Silverado 2500HD with 6.0L, like a glove.

I bought it within the last 8 months, and three ring appears to be metal. I suppose it could be a very dense plastic, but either way it is very durable. It seems cold to the touch, and makes a "clink" if tapped on.

It is plastic. At least mine is. I have the trim kit including the metal microwave stand. If you still need one and don't mind paying the shipping plus $25.00 I still have the trim kit I ordered. In the chaos of remodeling, the trim kit was not returned and it's too late to return it now. Thomas Beaty Jr.

metal, but I painted mine to match the wall color and it took the paint well

I would say it's brass. They also have a chrome version, but the brass better matched my original fixture and the wood trim.

It is metal covered in rubber/felt. This is the best tie rack I have owned.

The trim is silver. Very nice plates. My guess wanted to wash them for me to keep.

It is chromed metal, just like the original. The best, unless you find one cheap at a flea market or yard sale.

The Ring is a hard plastic. It is sturdy and doesn't feel like it will break.

This is plastic (and still sitting in my tool box). I ended up with the Pfister 016-150K Hand Shower Holder, Brushed Nickel which is definitely solid metal and well made. I believe it also came in different finishes.

The one I bought is chrome colored plastic. There is also one available in chrome coated brass.

Joanne, the trim is silver. A rather nice piece. Two things to be aware of: The drawer pulls are cheap plastic and the screws are a bit too short. I bought something else and instantly upgraged the cabinet. When I unpacked the cabinet the room instantly filled with a strong chemical odor. I had to keep the cabinet outside for several days. At the end of the day, I happy I bought the piece.

The trim is a white primer like finish on a metal ring with a attached clear glass filter. I have them covering cans in a bathroom and shower with LED spots. They do a great job for me.UPDATE 2/19/2014: Just order 5 more for another bathroom. THESE ARE DIFFERENT. Disappointingly they have cheap plastic rings -not metal- and it appears the glass can be removed. My concern is that will the slight heat from the LED spots plastic deteriorate and yellow over time? Furthermore, I would definitely be hesitant to use with older and much hotter technology like 60-90 watt spots.

rings are plastic painted chrome, and the mesh is white (as far as I can tell.... maybe ivory?). It's definitely not the same color as the bottom portion.

Definitely a metal, but the black paint scratches/chips easily. Still functions after more than a year, though!
