yes, they are thin hard plastic. but haven't had a problem with them. put bottom end in first they screw on the top so you don't have so much pressure when putting in the ground.

Depends on the brand. I have some that are metal, but some are plastic. However, I haven't had much luck with any brand of solar lights. They never seem to last long - I don't mean how long the light stays on per day; but the longevity of the product. I just replaced the rechargable battery in the units. One still does not work so I don't know if it's the bulb. I keep hoping that they will continue to improve the quality of the product and the brightness of the lights.

Yes the stake is metal. I would say it is thin but it dies stay when u put it in the ground - doesnt wobble.

I double checked Sorry they are hard plastic. I did not have any trouble getting or keeping mine in the ground

Mine is hard plastic. I've not had any issues with mine. They are pretty to look at at night.

The stakes are metal and are sturdy enough to shove into the ground. If the ground is very hard you may have to use something to get it started like a large nail or a round screwdriver. They are somewhat delicate depending on the terrain.

No it is not all metal... The legs and the border going around the table seems to be metal, but the top isnt ...Im not sure if it is cardboard though, could be, or It could be some type of thin wood.

I am not 100% certain. I got this but it did not last long as family scoffed it. I am pretty sure it was metal.

The lamp is plastic, good sturdy construction w/4 solar panels, although the battery is rather awkward to replace. The stake is metal (2 pieces screw together), 24" high. The led light is very good - not too dim, not too bright. Best garden solar lights I've found.

Yes, the plate is metal, if it is aluminum I cant say for sure it is light.

It is just heavely staked. It held up well for me even on a very windy weekend. For the money I strongly recommend.

Yes, if you use something to it weight down where the stakes would be used.

Yes! The set comes with metal stakes. Each leg has a small hole at the end specifically for this purpose. It is fairly sturdy without stakes but it's easy to knock over if you hang a heavy lantern on it. I stake it most of the time, but I'm lazy by nature and it hasn't ever fallen over when I skipped the stakes.

The stake is metal but the connection to the lift head is plastic and 4 have already broken.

Yes, can be staked down. Stakes not provided. However, we've found that it doesn't move much, very sturdy as is.

The tent does come with plenty of quality metal stakes. However, you will need your own stake mallet/hammer to really get them in the ground well.

I would say yes. The metal is thick. This is not a light metal that can be bend by hand easy

The stake and hook are different heights. I used some of the lower stakes as pathway lights and some of the hooks to raise the lights above my hostas. The stakes are plastic.

it is a light metal but it seems to hold up very well. our housekeepers are rough on everything and so far they have had no problems

I am re-answering the question as I just read someone said the pole was metal. It's is definitely NOT metal, but a hard plastic, as I just went out in the garage and looked at.

As long as the stake are metal, you will be fine. Surveyors used to use simple steel spikes when marking boundaries. Now they seem to use wood stakes more. Hope that helps
