If they are now metal please post so I know not to purchase anymore. Glad I could help.

Plastic and that's what I like about them. They don't hurt my feet or break if I accidentally step on them. One cat loves them, the other ignores, but it means he can play uninterrupted by his brother �

I have only received the plastic ones. I would return them if they were metal. I have purchased them twice from amazon and they are plastic

I would say they are plastic covered with black felt. I've had mine a year, maybe longer, and it has held up very well.

They are plastic, and they hold up well. I wasn't sure I wanted plastic, but they work great.

They are made of plastic, but heavy duty plastic. I am rough on my stuff and they hold up great.

They're sturdy, durable and fairly heavy. I would say that they are not made of aluminum... some other type of metal I'd guess.

They are plastic! I used them for my son's 5 year birthday party and they were great--we didn't have any "incidents" with them--everyone just had fun. We made a rule right up front that if anyone hit or did anything else with them, they were taken away and we had no problems! None of them even broke.

They are made of plastic. I wouldn't say it is cheap. I think they are worth the price.

I am pretty sure it is plastic. They do look like metal and had to take it apart to really tell.

If you ordered is it metal or plastic? One person says metal the other plastic......

They are plastic. It is kind of thin so be gentle with them. I have made 3 batches with them and they are still holding up.
