is the shiny brass real brass or coated plastic

Coated plastic. But the build quality is reasonably good. I have mine for 6 months and it still feels solid. My wife and I have different spray preferences and the switch is holding up well.

Unfortunately it's plastic. I don't think you can buy real brass these days unless you pay an arm and a leg for it.

This is a very nice brass piece. No flimsy plastic. You won't be disappointed at all!

If you want shiny/new brass then tumble them. I always do along with just a bit of polish and the brass comes out looking like new, even on 10 times reloaded brass.

Good afternoon Mr. Faro - The butterfly razor is brass with Chrome plating. Hope this answers your question - enjoy the day!

On mine, the threaded part is brass. The plastic is is there to offer a better grip.

--It seems to be a brass finish, but - it is heavy and of very good quality.

The original as shown was chromed solid brass. The piece you will get is metal but much lighter construction and do not look like as shown. My piece was defective.

The one I purchased is brass but I recently found these fittings which appeared to be made with much poorer quality materials and workmanship at home depot so I unfortunately cannot vouch for what is now being sold. A significant reduction in quality in the brass fitting and in now what appears to be a plastic clamp with poor quality screws. They used to be a very well made product. Sorry

It is shiny plastic. My main objection is that it burns toast at the lowest temp setting. I have to stand over it and manually pop it up when the toast is done.

It will be brass for the rest of you life. It may take on a patina over time that some find attractive. If you don't, a little copper cleaner will shine it right up.

The tub spout is metal. I purchased the polished brass and after two years it is still bright and shiny!

It is not, unfortunately. It is "brass colored." The one I received was not even the finish I had ordered. I'd say keep looking.

I would say it's brass. They also have a chrome version, but the brass better matched my original fixture and the wood trim.

This shower head assembly is polished brass finish. The finish is beautiful . I would recommend it highly.
