The actual temperature handle and on/off is metal but the nozzle and shower/jet stream on/off piece is plastic

Yes it is. The one I received works perfectly and I even disassembled it for refinishing of the handle. Works pretty well, just gotta take it off the demo switch.

The handle is also made of cast iron. I have not had it get too hot to touch, if that is what you are wondering.

Yes it is.You can feather it with the trigger and adjust top speed with a screwdriver on top.There is a adjustable screw on top of the handle.

Yes, the handle is steel with a wooden dowel where the hand-grip is. I do notice that it can tend to get a little cold on your hand when shoveling in very cold. I have spent over 15 hours pond-shoveling with this and the grip is pretty nice, sturdy wood, just a little cold at times.

Yes, it does have an on/ off switch. Very simple design. Does the job and very easy to clean.

Yes it really is all metal. I was having to replace the plastic handle on my 2006 Ranger every 6 months. This seems to have solved the problem.

Everything but the handles (knobs) and on/off switch is stainless steel. We wash ours with distilled water (reverse osmosis) and dry it completely after use to prevent staining. So far it has been an excellent product.

Yes, the handle is plastic. The handle turns to the off & on position so smoothly I don't feel it will break unless you make the effort to do so. If it where to break I would guess it would fail in the area where the handle is screwed on to the valve.

Yes, it has an on/off switch on the grip. This product has an informative video about the product. The link is up near the alternate photos at the top of the page. It's worth viewing.

the on/off button is on the knob right below the actual iron and it's on a raised part, so it would be near impossible to accidentally turn it off by design. The ON/OFF button is not easily hit when your hand is on the actual handle.

Yes there is an on/off switch. I like this grinder. When it is new, it chips the glass until you've ground a dozen or so pieces and taken the edge off the spindle. Practice on some junk glass until it dulls slightly. After that, it's first classMike

The iron was a gift so I don't use it but I think there's an off on dial under the handle.Hope this helped!

No clue. The handle is metal however. It looks good and feels good, but is crap. Used German razors just to make sure it is not the razors that are bad.

The handle itself is plastic but it is attached to a metal brace that is also the clamp with a non-slip pad. After fives years it's never worked itself loose when the surface is cleaned and properly dry

Yes the handle is aluminum. I personally do not trust this as the only locking device. That being said, I love this mount! It holds strong even in tight corning. For the little bit of money difference of getting this or a non lockable, I lock this and run a cable through the bikes if I stop anywhere.

Yes, the outside of the handle is plastic, but I believe the actual handle mechanism is metal. When you're opening it, the motion feels solid so at least the innards is metal. If someone tries to turn the handle without knowing the combination, there's a feature that is meant to allow the handle to still turn without engaging the bolts. This is a security feature.
