Is it plastic or wood? Does the paint rub off or chip off?

The platform is wood as are the pegs. The mechanism under the platform which in the picture is yellow is plastic. The mallet is also wooden. I cannot comment about the paint rubbing off or chipping but I don't think my grandson had it long enough for that to happen.

All wood except yellow levers to move pegs. WARNING: blue paint on handle of mallet comes off in our child's mouth and made her lips blue. Amazon is sending a replacement in case this unit was defective. We will be contacting Melissa and Doug for further instructions and to alert them to the issue.**UPDATED: Just spoke with M&D; - they informed me that all of their products are made with non-toxic materials and water based paint. Any water (including our child's saliva) will cause paint to wash off. They assured us that there is no issue. While I appreciate their assurances, we're still going to keep the maalet from her until she doesn't put everything in her mouth. All wood except yellow levers to move pegs.

All the pegs and the base is made of wood .the only plastic part is the yellow little lege I would say that holds the pegs in place so far the pain has not chipped off.I hope this helps you

This is made of wood. I am not sure if the paint rubs off or not as I did not let me daughter play with it for long. It is very loud and seems like it can cause injury. I wish I had looked into this further before buying it. This is one of the few toys I took away from my kids.

The product description says it is "cast from durable polyresin." It is a "plastic" compound but you won't have any problem painting it.

It's part wood, part plastic. The tray that holds paint is plastic, the frame around the easel is wood.

no, not plasticky. it is a hard, solid, heavy, wooden ball with a rubber-like painted coating. after use, our ball has obtained some very minor dents in the wood but the thin rubbery coating is still completely intact. it doesn't get chipped up like less expensive versions.

Its plastic. it doesn't chip because its not painted. its flat black with a texture. If you needed it painted, you would have to sand that texture off. Its pretty much a base model silverado grill.

As another reviewer mentioned, it's a type of polymer with the color all the way through. This means no chipping or scratching off the finish. It is, however, somewhat of a matte finish and not the high gloss of enamel.

Pretty sure it is not plastic, but I don't know what it is. I would think any spray paint would coner it.

I haven't used mine for heavy duty purposes, but the paint has not chipped off. Maybe if you constantly slide heavy metallic objects on the top, the coloring may scrape off. I use it for boxes and other things and yet to see any wear on the one I put up in my closet in April of 2014

We have the all black version and it is hard to tell whether it is wood or plastic. I believe it is the former with a matte finish. It is not metal.

It has faded slightly but it hasn't chipped at all. I must add that we keep it outside all year , covered in the winter. We've been pleased....

I don't recall, it's some sort of plastic. All I can tell you is it took paint really well, was easy to install & looks so sweet in my guest room/office.

Made of plastic. I had mine painted the same color as my truck. So far so good on durability

Hard plastic. It has a matted look so from a distance it appears like wood. It is not cheap or flimsy though. My son loves it and would purchase again.

It is plastic. I've had it on my desk for about a month now and it works just fine. I did have to use a little WD 40 because it squeaked a little - ever since then I haven't heard anymore squeaking. I noticed some people said it didn't work very well, but since it is plastic its possible it could haven been damaged in shipping.

I think it is painted steel, I have had mine in my yard for a year and it hasn't chipped or rusted. If it does, we can just spray paint it! It is very sturdy and I love it!

Hi, everything is wood laminate or painted wood. All the handles and nobs are all hard plastic. The sink is a softer but durable plastic. My grand daughters, and all the young and old love this play kitchen.

I don't wash it in the dishwasher. I have not had any paint flaking or chipping issues. �
