2 piece metal with a very weak weld----it was just spot welded in a couple of places and that was not done very well.

plastic. I'd say a middle grade plastic...not flimsy, not heavy duty. It works well.

Hi - Its made with metal - Note: I just ran out of stock this morning on this item

Metal. The unit is well made, but it is aimed at young kids. I think it's a little to fragile for youngsters over 12, or so.

It's almost entirely plastic on the outside. Some of the internal parts are undoubtedly made of metal.

I don't know what it is made of. It looks and feels like metal but I think it might be a very hard plastic. Mine have had a lot of use, and they still look great. I love these and all my guest ask me where I got them so they can buy them. They look high class.

Metal. However, the one I purchased broke in about a month. The one I gave as a gift lasted longer

I do believe it is made of plastic. I have no idea where it was made. If you have not purchased this item yet, I would not recommend it. Spend a little more and get a metal one.

plastic. But it is very heavy-duty and has lived beyond my 5 year old playing with it.

Metal & plastic. I still have it after a year or so. It seems to make that room a couple of degrees warmer and that seems to do the job.

Plastic. I have been very happy with mine, which has lasted for several years now.

Everything appears to be metal. I was cautious about plastic units breaking, which is why I went with this one. So far, it has held up really well, and is very sturdy (and heavy). I could probably use it as a weapon in a pinch. :)

The one I have is plastic. I am very pleased with the item. It doesn't feel "cheaply made". I would recommend. It works great for me.

It's made of plastic with metal cutting blades... Be careful though as there is some false advertising so make sure it actually does you want. Read my review for details.

It's metal. it's not the best quality. My top shelf broke within a few months of having it

It's plastic. I haven't used that feature, so I can't say whether or not it works well. Sorry.

It appears to be metal, but with plastic on the front edge. Its somewhat hard to tell for sure however.
