Is the base metal? Some of the similar looking racks say plastic with sand. Thanks!

The base is not metal. It is heavy but very well could be plastic with sand.

It looks to be a high density plastic and probably hollow. Definitely not wood or metal. Holds up well.

Yes, it is plastic. I threw my unit out because the plastic that connects the base to the top broke after 5 uses. It was not worth the money

My shelves and ladders were plastic. Only the cage was metal. The middle flooring is also metal like the outside walls of the cage.

Plastic, but solid. I have used it most days for over a year in the California heat and the rack still looks brand new

The poles themselves are metal. The base is a heavy duty plastic that can be filled with sand or water.

The base is plastic, as is the top. Fairly sturdy. It's great for keeping clean water out for the birds! Great addition to the birdbath.

The bars are metal but where they attach are made of a hard high quality plastic. Great crossbars. Some people complain they are not entirely flat but I don't mind

The base is all metal. The only non metal parts are the knob and the 4 feet. I think these are bakelite rather than plastic.

The base is white plastic. I see how it's confusing because the description says the finish is "blue." Nope. It's solid white like the main image.

The dish rack is plastic. I have been very satisfied with this purchase. Let me know if you have any other questions!

The base,pole and arm are all metal.Very sturdy. You should get some sand bags and weight the legs or feet. If you don't the umbrella will not stand on it's own..I tied mine in the corner of the desk. If you look on line you can find a really nice holder for the umbrella and not use the feet that come with it. I hope I helped you.

The base and column are metal, however the shade is plastic. Even though, it is till a nice looking piece.
