It is aluminum. Great keyboard especially for the price. The only difficulty I have with it is it snaps to the Nexus 7 so securely in the storage position that it takes some effort to get it apart. Not necessarily a bad thing.

Don't own it, but considering purchasing. According to the description provided by Amazon on 12/29/14, "Rugged Aluminum Pen-Style Housing." If true, then of course it won't rust, being aluminum.

Ye, it is metal housing and it does not have a brand but the model # is: M2042F

No. It sure looks like stainless. I am not 100% sure, though. It certainly doesn't look like aluminum.The seller should post this kind of information, I think.

It looks like chrome to me. If it's plastic, they did a good job making it look like chrome

No. It is silver colored plastic or aluminum maybe. Sturdy enough but light weight

The face of the case is aluminum, but most of the case is steel. But the case is fully painted looks great inside and out.

The housing is half plastic and half metal. Front is metal, back is plastic.

It does look like metal, but it is a very strong plastic...and very durable. It looks great.

Yes and it is NOT plastic. It is a real housing just without the electrical components

I'm pretty sure it's plastic coated to look like metal. I do like it though.

It appears to be solid aluminum with a silver powdercoat.I cut the mounting plate with ease to modify it for a sounder.It's going on the sailboat this spring.

It's like this big hunk of cast aluminum I think. Definitely metal. It's not a cheap piece of plastic or anything like that.

It looks like metal, but seems to be plastic. You can't tell by looking at it. We like it.

This is metallic plastic like sticker thing - it looks EXACTLY like the silver Mac casing - you can barely tell the difference. I love it! I also have the clear (although it comes in a variety of colors) keyboard cover/protector made by Moshi - and I love it too!

The housing is plastic and the bracket is metal. The LED produces little heatso it is not a problem.

Appears metal but I'm sure it's plastic. Quality is great and I'm sure you'd be happy with it. I sure am...........
