Could you confirm that the diffuser is in fact aluminum and not plated steel? Thank you.

I would be very surprised if it was aluminum as mine has rusted pretty significantly in the year I've owned it. To be fair, I live full time on a boat near salt water but if it was aluminum I would think it wouldn't rust even then.

It is lightweight, so I think it is aluminum -- steel would be much heavier. It hasn't rusted at all.

It's tin plated steel. I was suspicious when I first looked at it and a magnet confirmed my suspicions.

I think it is a rather inexpensive cast aluminum. Won't rust, but not very strong.

It appears to be stainless steel. I believe it is a combo of both. It is pretty heavy for aluminum. It length is 10". The width of heads are 2 3/8"wide. One is flat and other side is ridged with raised multi-points. This was an excellent purchase and I have used the heck out of it. I wish the ridge part was a little deeper. It feels very secure and balanced when using it.

I think there is both steel and aluminum. The white is plastic. The softer metal will bend, I can attest to that.

I am not sure. The discription says aluminum steel. It works really good. can make rice without it boiling over, just for example.

It is definitely not polished aluminium. My shower is the polished chrome version. All the chrome plated parts are very high quality and after 1 year of constant use I see zero deterioration, or rust spots.

I would say not aluminum because I was rough with mine a couple of times and it started to rust.

It is aluminum, my ol one was just a rubber grommet with a insert. The insert melted on overheating. This one works the same way!

It is a heavy gauge, chrome plated steel (definitely not aluminum). The sockets for the wheels are also steel and will not break like the original base that came with the chair, which was a plastic/composite material. I recommend this product.

I dońt remember. I can tell you my diffuser has worked 2 months then... I do not recommend this product !

It's a thick-feeling metal, I'm not sure if it's steel or aluminum but it's very sturdy and feels heavy in your hand. Works great!

Yes. The diffuser is a solid piece of matte plastic with no screw in the middle. The light is beautiful. We put it on a dimmer. However, you have to order the fixture separately! We didn't realize this and were surprised to just get the shade in the box. It looks great in my teen's bedroom.

It is aluminum or possibly some other lightweight steel. It's not very heavy.

The metal is NOT cast aluminum. A magnet sticks to it, so the metal is probably carbon steel. It is copper colored, but I cannot determine if that is paint or plating (I speculate paint.) The "glass" is indeed glass. One of the panels in one of the units I bought had a small chip in it but that edge is covered so I did not return it, since it did not detract from the truly beautiful appearance. This is a high quality product and I consider it quite satisfactory.

It's probably aluminum but it is definitely not plastic. It is some type of metal for sure.
