are the hinges metal or plastic?

Unless they've updated the model (we bought this part number in 2011), the hinges are metal mounted in plastic. Our plastic is cracking, and I have to buy a new door for ~$100.

The hinges and the hinge nuts and bolts are all metal. They do not appear to be breakable at all. And in over a year of use they have not even required tightening. All parts of the seat are quite sturdy and durable.

They are metal. I actually painted them oil rubbed bronze to match the fan in our pavilion. Nice product

They are metal, but not solid metal. I believe there is plastic inside of the handles. The faucet works well in my RV and looks great.

I'm out of town, so I cannot physically validate this response with the hinges themselves, however, I'm guessing they're steel with an oil rubbed bronze finish. The true test, is to put a magnet on the hinge. A magnet will not stick to bronze...but it will stick to steel. Unfortunately, I'm not able to do that test at this time. If he can wait until next week, I can perform the test then.

The body is metal. The part that contacts the door is plastic with rubber on the end.Hope that helps. These are great and what a great price!

They are plastic. Heavy plastic. I am satisfied with their quality. It's a fun set for our office basement game room.

The quality of these headphones is top notch! The hinges are metal. They're not lightweight, but I wore them on two overseas flights and loced them.

They are thick lucite and appear to be very sturdy. The item bends easily and very smoothly. I believe the hinges are more than adequate for this item.

The hinges on this unit are all non metallic. The hinge pins are molded and simply need to driven into place and lock. The pins on my unit were part of either the top or the back panel, I can't remember which. The only screws are those used to attach the two plastic straps that keep the top from falling back past vertical when fully opened. I assembled my entire unit in less than five minutes! Fabulously easy!

Metal. They are very sturdy but mine only lasted about 6 months before it completely stopped working.

They are metal, but are detachable if you want to switch them out for plastic. I was impressed with the quality of this unit. I am using it to store cleaning products. The bottles fit well & the organizer is holding up well under heavy use.

It has plastic hinges, but this is a very sturdy can. I've had it for a couple of years and I love it. Highly recommend it.

They're made of metal, depending on what type of cabinet doors you have may need to use a plastic spacer mount them in order for them to work properly. Mine, in fact needed the plastic spacer but it is heavy duty. I ordered the large quantity of these and put them all in my kitchen. I get to do this but I'm going to count every door in my house and put them on. We love them

Yes the hinges and nuts are metal. Have not had any problems except the stool is so close to the wall that it made that side harder to tighten down but the right side has stayed tight.

The main hinge is made of a very strudy plastic material with a steel hinge pin. There are two smaller supporting hinges on each end inside of the lid that are metal.

yes - the hinges are metal. I was at first happy with this as I thought it would stabilize better than merely the velcro strap types I had before but they didn't work any better. They also poked through and into my running pants when I was on my knees - which was quite frustrating as I had just spent $100.00 on these new pants. For what it's worth. Hope that helps.The metal parts can just pop out if needed, then re-insert after. I have just taken mine out completely at this point but it is very easy to put them in or take them out.
