It is not made of plastic. It is a heavy thick cloth material with netting in places. I was worried it might not be strong enough. My cat is over weight but it holds her well. There is no plastic on it. Inside there is a very nice padded cushion for the pet to sit on. As big as my cat is, she even turns around in it and yet the bag does not go to tilting much either while I am walking holding the handles. I had worries about it when I ordered it, but I am satisfied now that I have used it.

It is of some type of canvas . I also have a problem with it staying open for my small 7 lb yorkie. It has strapes that make it hard to place your dog in. I am going back the old booster seats. Hoe this helps not pleased with the material.

At first glance it does look like a portable carrier but it truly is a solid house. The house is made from two equally sized pieces of heavy plastic that snap together. The top is heavy enough that I just place it on the bottom half without snapping them together for ease of cleaning.

I am not sure what the material is, but it is sturdy. It is kind of glossy so cleaning hasn't been a problem. I love it and so do the cats ( I have 3 who use it). Though I have another liiter box downstairs, they like using the one in the enclosure. For me, I like that it looks (and smells) so much better now that we have this enclosure. It is actually fairly heavy and definitely strong enough for me to sit on. The cover lifts easily though for cleaning.

No!I find this carrier doesn't smell like plastic and instead smells like a good piece of luggage. It's really well made and isn't smelly

Its plastic not metal. Not very well made as they say. I should have read all the answers.

I think it is plastic. It has a plastic spike under it to keep it in the ground too.

Honestly, I can't tell. It doesn't look like plastic though. We've enjoyed it, it is very nice.

It's a kind of polypropylene, or like, material. It's very thin and while it hasn't ripped or torn in the months we've owned our cart, I don't expect that it would hold up to much abuse. Also it is not water resistant. It's basic function, as far as I can tell, is to just keep what you're carrying from sight.

It is plastic, but it looks nice. I like that it is light weight to lug around.

It is made of plastic, but it's a very durable, thick plastic and I've had no problems with it at all.

It looks like plastic, but it's very strong.... might be rubber? Check the Otterbox website?

It is a plastic. However it is better made than the rectangular containers which do tend to crack. So far I have had not any problems after three month of heavy use.

I believe that it is plastic. But it looks fine and is holding up fine. Have had no issues with it and we both like it.

It is plastic and it replaces the back cover you have. Hope this is helpful.

It's like a heavy cardboard material with a shiny, plastic-like coating over it. It's very sturdy...not just a piece of cardboard that folds lol.
