It is a hard plastic. I bought it to shovel my wooden deck. Work great without damage to the deck.

Plastic. I was fooled as well it looks like metal but it is made of solid plastic Good shovel though. No issues with my tough Buffalo winter and is nice and light weight

Neither. It is a really sturdy heavy plastic. I know that sounds weird, but it has made it through two of the toughest midwest winters in recent memory without any damage and it can hold a LOT of heavy snow, ice, and slush.

Plastic. I think it might have some sort of graphite in it. It's light, slippery, and snow releases well from it.

This is steel. Quite heavy actually. I have used this extensively and highly recommend it. It rolls easily.

I believe it is a thicker metal than aluminum. It appears sturdy, but mine was damaged and I could not put the parts together. Shop for this item among different vendors. I found it cheaper as I began to look for another source.

Laura, I'm not sure whether or not it's made of steel, but, having used this for a few months now, I can definitively say that it is a SOLID product and way better than any of the cheaper ones I've had in the past. It's pricey, but well worth it.

It's metal, actually made of aluminum. It's really lightweight stuff. No too bulky and works very well. :-)

I think steel. But not sure. It is heavy so that's why I think it us steel. Hope this helps!

It is indeed steel. This is a superior product in function and design (appearance).

No, it looks like aluminum. It feels too light to be steel. It works well, though. I have used it to make large batches of dough and the machine and the hook worked as well as my old Kithen Aid.

I believe it is aluminum but not sure. I have had no problems with mine and use it a lot.

its aluminum and so far seems pretty well made. I've only used it twice so far but I have no problems with it so far

It's made of aluminum, very durable! Kinda heavy at first, but you'll get used to it.

Waaaay too light to be steel, it's definitely aluminum. In fact the box almost seemed empty when I got it, that's how light it is. But I'm 300+ pounds and have used it daily for over a year with no problems.

It says that it is made of "aluminized steel" but feels more like just aluminum. Also appears to have a somewhat thin teflon-like coating. As noted in my review, teflon had shown some wear upon receipt from shipment contact with the rack.

Yes, it is made of aluminum. The heat is evenly distributed with the aluminum, and does do a great job of making sandwiches. I remember we had one that was steel when I was a kid. Might have been a knock off of the original at the time.
