This is a metal stand with rubber pads to keep it from slipping. I bought these for my home and work lap tops and they work great. Esspecially if you travel or your a student on the go. They fold up nice and compact.

I bought the plastic one from the Dollar Store. Wish I had bought more of them as I gave two away. Still have one that has held up for several years, has outlasted one $2000 MacBook Pro and is now on the replacement. It is perfect!

Funny you should ask I have had this stand for going on two years of daily use. And the only time it let me down was with my 17' hp laptop it's was to heavy for the stand. But for my other laptops it works perfect.The stand is made of metal and it is nonslip, I like it because it's light weight Good luck

It's a lightweight metal. Very sturdy and I've never had a problem with it slipping.

Aluminum. Legs have plastic pad so don't slip around, neither laptop on stand nor stand on table. Hope that helps.

As others here have mentioned, it's metal/alloy, with semi-soft plastic "feet." There IS a cheap, mostly-plastic knockoff of this stand, also sold via Amazon, which I haven't encountered myself, but seems to have a pretty bad rep here. Having just bought this one myself, I say play it safe and get the original - well worth the extra bucks.

It is a metal stand. I am guessing aluminum. Except the little plastic cushions on the legs nothing else is plastic. I am very happy with it.

The material is plastic. The top shelf is sturdy but the bottom shelf buckled with pots on it. Had to rig up some supports. Not a good product for the $ and I wouldn't buy them again.

The stand is made of heavy plastic. Its very strong I have a HP LaserJet on top and in hold the printer without any issues like bending or warping. The drawer is on rollers so it comes out very easy even when holding a new rime of paper and a box of envelopes. I'm very happy with this stand.

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.

The top is very sturdy, and strong plastic. The legs screw in to each corner and when not in use the legs clip to the bottom of the top. It is a great stand for the price.

I wouldnt chance anything too expensive with this stand. I bought a used Ipad that I use only for gigs...so it can fall or get knocked over and its no big deal. You might want to invest in something a little more sturdy.

It is not plastic, it is metal. But I would not recommend it anyway. The metal main body cracked on me. I do not know why - I did not overload it at all. I just noticed once that there was a crack there. It is still usable, but I will buy another.

Heavy plastic. It is very sturdy. I doubt you will find a metal mixer under $300-$400.

The pole is made out of metal, and the big square base is plastic. By the way, love mine. Creaks a bit in the breeze, but not annoyingly so.

It is Plastic, with rubber feet. The very bottom of this unit STAYS IN PLACE, while the top section turns - just like a "Lazy Susan." I have mine on a glass top and absolutely no problems with it... We love it! JD

It is not sturdy. There is no quality control on the manufacturing. You may get a good one, you may get one that breaks within a few days (like ours).

It is plastic it's pretty sturdy, I painted mine to give it a granite look. I would buy again.

It looks really plastic. I have mine in my living room, but I have plastic and glass furniture. And it is very easy to put together.

It is made of plastic but it does seem to be sturdy enough to use in that fashion. It swivels easily.

The stand is made out of metal; however, there is no cover that comes with it. It must be bought separately.

It's a combination of metal and plastic, but the plastic is sturdy. I don't feel like it would easily break.

It is made of very inexpensive particle board. I bought several of these to hold DVDs and video games. They are not sturdy. I have mine standing next to each other against the wall. They are nice to look at but not what I would consider a quality piece of furniture.
