It's plastic. But, I'm pleased with it. I've never used a Nikon grip, so I cannot compare. But, user reviews were mostly positive about it, so I saved myself a BUNDLE OF BUCKS. You might not want to use it on a tripod with heavy lenses, possibly too much stress on the plastic construction. FYI, on my Nikon D800 if there's no battery in the grip, the camera won't shoot.

Plastic but very strong, dropped mine from about five feet onto cement it bounce like a superball, caught it on the upswing! Had it almost a year zero problems and I'm pretty rough on camera gear

If you read the description, its made of plastic. if you want more info than that is written, I suggest you contact the company directly.

It is plastic but looks like metal. Can't really tell it's plastic by looking at it.

It is made of metal. I absolutely love mine!. Great for working kinks and stiffness out of the neck and upper back.

It is plastic. I wasn't expecting much out of it, but I've been pleasantly surprised.

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

It is made of plastic. I do NOT recommend it. the suction cup works great but the part that holds the shower head spins around and drops the shower head.

It's made of plastic and its about 3/4" X 1 3/4". I've previously had one that was made of aluminum, but I haven't been able to find another one.

It says it's made from resin. Resin is a plastic like material. There is no metal in it if that's what you needed to know.

It is plastic, however it looks very similar to metal when it is installed.

Plastic, I think. It is quite sturdy but I don't use it. It is clear plastic so not terribly noticeable

Arun, The first one I purchased over 5 years ago is metal,my new one purchased a few months ago appears to be plastic (I haven't used it yet). I hope it works well,but now that you have called this to my attention I am dubious.

It's made of both metal and plastic. I can't say if it's of the same quality as the original because this is the oldest one I've gotten my hands on but it really is a great quality. Sturdy. I got it for my nephew and he wanted to play with it so I let him take it out and he's played with it a hundred times, transforming it back and forth, and it is still fully functional and nothing has broken on it or anything.

Not that I can tell. It seems to be made of pure plastic, but it's a very durable slightly heavy plastic.

it's made of metal. it isnt made of unbreakable iron or anything, but it's definitely a nice step up from plastic.
