Is there anybody that can confirm the material that this drain is made from? I'm not a plastic person.

This in NOT plastic. It's high a high quality product. Mine has been installed for about two years without any sign of wear.

It's metal but I accidentally walked away after spraying bathroom foam bleach and it tarnished. It took 2 boxes of baking soda to remove the oxidation. Now all good !

Save yourself some grief and do no buy this product. Go to a box store so you can take the product back if is the wrong one.

it is made of a pvc vinyl--really sturdy and easy to keep clean--just hose it off. Looks much more expensive than it was and have gotten a lot of complimentary comments from neighbors and friends. Do be sure to install it using a level to make sure you get it straight from all sides

If I remember what the plumber told us, it's ceramic and metal. There is a ceramic disk inside that can be cleaned when mineral deposits interfere with it.

it is made from brass , plated with different metals . Looks good , but the pumps suction and its recovery for a second disposal is small and slow.

It is made of plastic. It has been used for 6 months now and shows no signs of leaking. Although it is plastic, it is not cheap feeling.

It looks to be a high density plastic and probably hollow. Definitely not wood or metal. Holds up well.

It is made of plastic. Honestly, it not that good guilty. After installing it I used it for a couple months. One of the the inside hoses went bad and I had to take it out. The idea is great and the ceramic toilets I used in Japan were great. This product is an attempt to replicate the idea but it is not as good as an original. I am thinking that if you want the correct usage you need to get the full blown unit.

The spigot is plastic. I wouldn't use it on the next 1 that I purchase. I'll just connect a short hose and shut off valve to the drain spout at the lowest practical place. That allows me to take advantage of water pressure. The spigot is useless for me. Otherwise it's a great product.

Stainless steel with a thin plastic coating. Good and solid but it angles slightly away from drain so it is not a perfectly flat surface. Hope this helps.

I am not sure. First impression is stainless steel. I would suggest stopping by a home improvement store or emailing Emerson if that is a deal breaker. I have install two Emerson disposals and of course they both were the same material.

This kettle does not have plastic material. Only the handle is a rubber type of material foe heat resistance. And no the water doesn't touch that part. I love mine!

The pull down is metal made, only the "disc" with the holes (water exit), and the "pull down holder"; at the end of the "pipe" is plastic, really all the faucet is very solid !

the spigot is plastic but it appears to be made heavier than others I have seen, for what my wife uses it for it can not be plastic. Hope this hepls

James, In proofing, "appear" should the correction to my previous answer. Also, I believe the finish is much better than the originals. I put two of them in my sister's home, and she is happy. However, they do not include the drain assembly. Tom B.

Ha! Good question. It looks like I was fooled! I just assumed the exterior of the hose was stainless steel mesh stuff. I just looked at mine and it's probably a non metallic mesh, but looks and feels fine. I had to use a magnifying glass to see that the strands are probably made of a fishing string type looking material. It's probably okay quality for the life of the faucet and I've no reason to doubt it. Inside the mesh appears to be a flexible rubber type hosing. I'll have to put this in my review.As our dear, departed, California Huell would say, "Oh my gosh, that's amaaazing! Do you mean to say . . . . " Ha! Good question. It looks like I was fooled!

Everything is metal as far as I can tell. I'm about 99% positive that the nozzle that you pull out is a very very thin metal, but I don't see how they could have built it any other way. I had to look very closely, but ours is scratched in one place and it sure looks like metal to me. It's a nice faucet.

It is plastic. It actually works better than some of the more cushy one. There is much less splash back and leakage underneath. It fits securely on our standard size toilet.
