What material is the spigot?

it is plastic that has been chromed. So far it has held up for me. I have found when tightening the plastic nut on the inside you need to use a pair of pliers or an adjustable wrench.

Hi, the best way for me to describe it is a plastic like what is used for transferring water from one fish tank to the next. It worked wonders for my son so it didn't worry about it. My son didn't use it long before he learned how to drink from any straw. I hope my answer helped.

A combination of Metal and Plastic actually! We purchased this faucet along with the hammered copper farm sink. Both are absolutely gorgeous additions to our recently remodeled kitchen. Couldn't be happier.

I got the Stainless Works Stainless Steel Beverage Dispenser Replacement Spigot(Polished Finish) and it fits great. It's more durable and pulp, etc doesn't clog it like the plastic ones. It costs more, but worth it.

Mine came with a plastic spigot, but I bought it several months ago. It might have changed by now. Nothing wrong with the plastic spigot, and if you want to change it it is easy. Remember to use Teflon tape on the threads. Out here in California, we need rain to put in the barrel.

outside is metal,the inside is made of plastic, that the water go's threw, you can't tell from looking at it. It's still a great faucet and can't beat the price.

I believe silicone. Either way, it's a soft flexible spout. Not a hard plastic.

Hi Rebecca Yes the spigot is plastic and so far it works great and the seal doesn't leak.

Plastic. Very durable. I use a narrow bottle brush to wash out the previous brew. Maintains a good taste when clean.

It is plastic with a silver coating. I've read reviews stating the spigot loses it's seal and leaks. So, I purchased a replacement spigot, ceramic. No, leaks thus far and I have been making my Kombucha weekly for almost two months now.

Yes, it's plastic. The only metal is the infuser basket, which is standard.

I'm not certain of the materials used for the handle, but its not brass. Regardless, I am very happy with this faucet in every way. Hope this is helpful. Let me know if you need more details.

No, the spigot is plastic with a chrome coating on the outside. There is a plastic washer on the inside as well.

It's metal. I have been very happy with this dispenser. Easy to fill. Using it for 9 months. No issues.

The spigot is included. It is not high quality, but works fine. It would be easy to upgrade later if you wanted or needed.
