Are the handles and towel bars made of metal or plastic? Does the finish hold up? Any problems with the towel bars?

All of the hardware is chrome or brushed nickel, depending upon which finish you select (this listing is for the Chrome). We sell a lot of these, and haven't had any complaints. If you have any other questions, let us know.Sincerely,Gary NealonRTA Cabinet Storewww.rtacabinetstore.com

Scott, the towel bars are metal and match the finish you choose. We have had no issues with the towel bars holding up. The Charisma is one of our most popular doors and we get very few calls on it. If you have any other questions, please call the DreamLine Customer Support Team at 866-731-2244 or via email at support@bathauthority.com. Thank you for your interest in DreamLine!

Dreamline does not use plastic towel bars and grab bars on these doors, they are aluminum coated with the finish option of your choice. Dreamline sells quality materials and you should have no issues whatsoever with the finish or the towel bars/grab bars.

Peggy I posted an answer to your question and after reviewing the other responses, I realized I was commenting on a different towel bar. The one I was commenting on did not have metal brackets that were screwed to the wall. please disregard my previous post. If you want to mount a towel bar with metal mounting brackets, you need to use a masonry bit and anchors. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

The bars are plastic, reasonably sturdy. I have set them up inside my house, and they hold up well. I have not used them outdoors yet, as there is too much mud in the yard from "you know who". Have to see how they hold up outside.

The bars are metal but where they attach are made of a hard high quality plastic. Great crossbars. Some people complain they are not entirely flat but I don't mind

Handles are a hard plastic. I do believe its metal rivets. There are nice but I advice that you do not let them set in water. They are better then cheaper knives. But not highest quality. I do love them in my kitchen. Husband loves the steak knives!

The metal is yes. The paint not so much. For the price I'd say it's still a quality product. Also you can unravel the handle wrap and remove the cheap wood and replace it with your own handle to make it a little studier.

plastic with wire handles. used mine for several months. works well and looks almost new. shouldn't be a concern.

The slide bar is metal as are the end pieces. Most of this unit is metal. I believe the only plastic parts are the round discs that fit into horizontal end pieces and the button that is used to adjust the height of the shower head. This has been in daily use in our bathroom since April and we are very happy with this product.

They are metal and decently thin. Tried hanging it on the door first but liked it on the wall more. Didn't have an issue with it rubbing when I tried it though.

The handles are coated plastic/vinyl over metal. I have only used the pots a few times, they seem to be durable.

The rack is made of metal with a dull black finish, looks like wrought iron, but I don't think it is because it is not as heavy as wrought iron would weigh. I have hung towels on it after showering, and it seems fine. Totally wet towels from laundering might take a while to dry. My personal opinion is that it's probably safe to use for towels. I don't know how it would hold up under long term wet use though.

The long towel bar itself is made of either brushed chrome or stainless steel. However the two round encasements that the bar goes through are plastic (made to look like polished chrome).

The finish is solid. We have had this item since July of 2013 and there is no sign of wear. My husband is not easy on his either, he yanks his towel off it. They still look brand new and we will be getting more for the kids bathroom. I did not purchase the shiny chrome bar, it is brushed nickel which is beautiful.

Made of metal except the red handle covers are plastic. mine work very well.

The end caps are plastic the rest is metal. They held up well for me, but the pins to adjust the weights took a bit to get use to (they would stick sometimes)

It has held up well for us after 10 months. the shower curtain holders rusted all over it but the bar still looks fine.

It is made of a heavy duty plastic. I too think the towel rack may be a little too thin. It might fit but would angle down too far and not be stable.
