What material is this made out of ? Is is solid metal all the way through or just Chrome plating?

Seems to be made of chrome plated die cast for the base, possibly chrome plated brass for the spout (everything is non magnetic). The valve body appears to be brass, very thin. Very simple but functional.

Looks more like a dull chrome yeah silver color but anything like a brushed or polished nickel. I think it's made of a zinc Alloy. But the of work well and look good!!!

Metal. Considering how comparatively low priced this product is, it is of comparatively high quality. I installed it in a matter of minutes and have had it in service now for several months with no complaints.

Mine is chrome plated metal. I am not sure what the base metal is, but the plating solves and reactivity issue.

It is all chrome except for the glass which is somewhat frosted. It has held up well.

I don't know if it is Brass, maybe stainless steel underneath, but it is chrome plated and hard metal, not plastic. Its great quality, I have been using it for 8 months now switching from a rain shower, handheld, and massage jet.

Both. It's made mostly of chrome plated stainless steel, with a couple of plastic parts.

It's cromed metal. Very easy to install. Just make sure the lock lever on the inside is in the right position when you put the two pieces together

It's sheet metal. I got it for my wife and she has been pleased with it. Would buy again if needed.

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

The description says that it is chrome plated, but does not specify what it is under the plating. Judging from the weight, I'm guessing that it is stainless steel.

It is solid metal. However, it comes with three sets of handles for you to choose from: all chrome, "crystal" plastic, and white ceramic. The ceramic handles are downright dangerous, prone to breaking almost explosively. An otherwise high-quality set, though.

It looks like chrome to me. If it's plastic, they did a good job making it look like chrome
