Is the handle metal or plastic? Are the rings for the line ceramic, metal or plastic? Thanks!

I gave it as a gift to my son in law, but he said the handle is graphite and the rings metal...he loves it!

The handle and the rod are stainless. The tube, and the top and bottom rings are aluminum. The foot of the jack and the bracket at the top that the lever attaches to is plastic. Both are pretty sturdy.

The one I received was plain metal .. no ceramic. I'm not sure if you ordered the same. :)

As the previous person noted, metal and plastic. Do you want to buy my set? My husband used for about two weeks after surgery, they are in excellent condition.

The unit is all metal and the handle is chrome as well. As for spaghetti making, I've not made anything other than band noodles but I'm sure that it will make what you're looking for. It does a great job!

Metal, the cylinder is made of plastic. Appears to be fairly sound. We use this every weekend since the purchase.Absolutely love the set.

This is metal and has plastic handles. I have had this a long time and I'm not disappointed! It looks much better in person than in the photo, too.

Yes, the handle is plastic but it is a very sturdy piece. I have no problems with the valve and highly recommend it.

I have no clue. My friend ordered the same thing and he got a metal handle one but when i ordered, I got a plastic one.

Metal, but the plasticish ties around the handles have come off for me at this point. Also, they are not ALL-METAL, as the skull-crushers on the ends are made out of plastic, as I have previously mentioned. They do have a tendency to pop off after being used, but I popped them back on each time and they work. I have had these swords for a number of years now and they are still a fine addition aside from my previously mentioned issues.

Porcelain. The ones I have are definitely not plastic. Love them by the way.

It's a die cast metal and plastic handle like handle.... but not cheap... Its very nice though. Doesn't look cheap at least mine doesn't. Very charp.. but its a metal plastic mixed.

They are plastic on wooden handles. My grandson has had his since Christmas 2012 and they have held up great. He still uses them. I couldn't be happier with the complete set.

I believe it's more metal all throughout the handle, it makes a metallic "clink" when you tap it with a fingernail or something that is plastic. It's probably only silver plated though, so take care not to scratch it. The crystal and pearl inlays are most definitely plastic however. I hope I answered your question to your satisfaction, don't hesitate to ask any more :)

I can't tell you what metal ..but the part of the handle that is black is rubber making it easier to grip ..the rest of the handle is metal.

The crank and clamp are metal, but the crank handle and the twist end for the clamp are a black plastic. I'm wondering why this is a question. This is supposed to be a quality pasta maker and I wouldn't expect anything less.
