Is the case made of aluminum or plastic? The description vs review, which one is correct?

Unfortunately its made of plastic, the title is misleading. I got one hoping it would be aluminum but I was let down.

I believe this is made of stainless steel. It appears that way on the inside and everywhere I've looked online it lists only stainless steel. I believe if aluminum were a material, it would have to be mentioned. I've recently moved and put the box and manual away, sorry about that. I hope this helps.

Mine is plastic. Way cheaper than the aluminum model, or it was when i bought it off Amazon.

It is made of Aluminum. I use it for burning a lot of disks and works perfect. Now, I noticed when I was using an old CD, say like a game, it made a ton of noise from some strange reason and would not fully load the file where I could access them. But that was with one out of a bazillion CD's. It still works amazing for me.

I do believe the case is plastic. It does not feel like metal. I make sure I keep it in the case and around my wrist when using the camera.

It is metal and lightweight. So I assume it is aluminum. But I'm not certain, sorry.

The case seems to be made of a hard plastic/rubber material. Not sticky like rubber though. The aluminum plate seems to be molded into this material. Have had for over a month now and has been holding up quite well. No scratches at all on the plastic/rubber material. 1 small scratch on the aluminum though.

It's made of plastic, honestly the case is really flimsy. My case had a crack in it. However the hardware is very good. I don't store anything in the case. I just placed it neatly in my toolbox with my other lathe stuff.

This product is metal. if a reviewer received plastic then they got a wrong product.

Like another person said, the case is completely hard plastic. It is very well made and has withstood a few short drops. I only use this cover during the summer when I go to the beach or pool and switched back to my rubber/plastic case for the rest of the year.

Yes, all aluminium. I'm not sure this case scratches the body cause i didn't uncover it yet... and the back of this case (as you can see in the picture), there are 3 parts of it ; The top, middle, bottom parts. The top and bottom parts are a little bit soft surface and the middle is prickly. Anyway all of the parts are easy to be scratched i think. After 1 month using it, i've got several scratches...

All of the white on the white/black version and all of the black on the black/red version is painted metal. Not sure what metal, but it feels like it might be aluminum or some other light metal.The black on the white/black and the red on the black/red is plastic and has lots of ventilation holes.The case is not flimsy at all. I would use it as a chair if it were more comfortable. I weigh 155 lbs and it can hold my weight just fine. With both side panels off, it has a bit more bend, but I would still not consider it to be flimsy.

The case is plastic, but I wouldn't consider it flimsy. I've had mine for a year and while it has some extremely light and hard to notice surface scratching, there's no structural damage or cracks, and I've put it through some heavy usage.

I suspect the case material, plastic vs. stainless steel, is the only difference. They are still playing with their pricing scheme.

The case is two parts. Hard plastic with a non-slip coating. Unfortunately, mine lasted only two weeks.

It is aluminum, however i feel it is very sturdy, with one side panel off it is a tad bit flexible but not all that bad, with both off it will flex it a bit, I have this case and also the same case that is in black with the red front panel and we love them both!
