What material is the handheld shower head made of? Is it metal or plastic?

the handle is plastic and the hose is metal -- we had another model (Sprite Shower Falls) for many years and loved it -- it was also plastic with a metal hose --

I just got it last week, so i have not put it up yet. I will save this email and let you know. hope to put it up this weekend. I can tell you ok, just installed it! it is plastic, but most shower heads are. The shower arm bracket works fine. Good mobility.

I believe it is a plastic fitting that is finished to look like metal. Like other reviewers have stated when tightening the fitting to the shower arm tighten to a snug fit.... "Do not crank down on it" and you will be fine. My wife and I are very happy with the purchase.

Plastic parts but sturdy, holds the shower wand very well and attaches easily. I love it and am very pleased with it's materials, i'ts looks and it's handiness.

It's plastic. We have had another Hansgrohe control with the plastic cover plate in another bathroom for over a year and it has been fine.

Hand held showers should be plastic and seem to always be. Metal if dropped could swing into the wall and be more likely to cause damage.

I know that the portion of the shower sprayer (dark grey area) is a plastic but I think the rest is a lightweight metal. I really do think it is a good quality shower head with the adjustable arm. We bought a second one for another shower because it is worth the money.

It is plastic, but it is very nice weight and doesn't look it at all. I have had no problems at all with the hand held shower detachable head coming out. It always stays in tight and goes back in easily.

Exterior surface is plastic. Internal parts and couplings are metal. Probably brass. It's an attractive and very sturdy shower head.

Shower output (where the water comes out) is plastic. The rest of the hardware is metal.

Im pretty sure it is all plastic.I am a little disappointed with the quality because of how expensive it is.With that said - I have had this for about a year now and although it needs cleaning (soak in vinegar) it has been working really nicely especially at low flows.The switch for flow settings is really tight - the only functional flaw I could find.It is cheaply made - does anyone make a full metal shower head these days!?

The documentation in the package says stainless steel. Can't tell by the feel, but I don't see the point on such a cheap shower head.

I see someone wrote that this was a lightweight plastic shower head but it says chrome in the description? Please verify

The only part that is plastic is the hand held hose head. Everything else is a light weight chromed metal. This is the best $$ value unit out there.

it is metal. the shower head is turnable on the cord but the cord stays stiff. Took a couple months and now it is more pliable - and I like it a lot.
