Are its insides made of plastic or metal? I have to replace a bathtub spout that has failed after only 3yrs. Its better to pay more than re-do junk.

We assume that it is made of (brushed nickel) metal;2 years and still is intact.

I can't say for certain since it has been several months since I installed the spout. I know if the majority was plastic parts I would have returned it. I am pleased with the quality for the price as I did return a cheaply made spout ( a different brand).

Mine just arrived and I was disappointed to find plastic on the inside around the spout. I called the company and the representative said the plastic is BPA free. I wish I could find something online that confirmed this. Not sure if I'm going to keep the product

It is metal with plastic on the inside as it protects the glass from breaking even the fixture is assembled. Mine has not leaked....ever.

It does not appear to be plastic to me. It feels like metal. The inside, where the holes for the water to spray from, is most likely plastic. It looks great and works well.

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

It's all metal inside except for two very small silicone "plugs" where the water level is measured on the outside of the unit. The lid is plastic. I love it!

It is plastic. the hose is metal. Still working well for me, and looks almost like new! (only because I have hard water, so there are some spots)

The Only plastic parts are the underside of the lid and a little on the inner part of the spout - otherwise all metal surfaces

There is no metal inside. It's just pvc. It looks sturdy enough, in my opinion. My boat has actually hit it a couple of times and it's fine. I have a small boat though.

The inside from the connection end to the spout is brass. The spring loaded valve at the outlet that controls the water direction is plastic.

I'm not sure, to tell you the truth and I don't have the product with me to answer definitively. I'd take the majority's word for it that it's plastic. I will say that I have two of these and while they don't get extremely heavy use, they haven't broken yet. They do leak while using (could be I need more plumbers' tape on the threads tho').

Its made of plastic with a chrome color finish on it. If it was brass, it would cost a LOT more. This is not a high end piece here, but works great if your on a budget like i am. If you want a more high class look, then you probably want a Kohler or Moen. But, those cost $75+...

It is made of plastic. I wouldn't recommend that much pressure on this product. And the seals on the one I purchased leaked after 3 months of use.

It really is hard to tell but because of its light weight I would say its plastic. That being said, I have not had any problems with the shower head or the hose. Please note this is my second unit. The first one is over 3 years old and still working with no problems.

The inside is plastic, and the bottom is metal. It heats water really fast. I love this kettle.

I would say that it is made of hard plastic and silicone. It is durable and easy to open and close which is a plus for me. I don't have a lot of strength in my hands but I am able to open and close the tubs when needed.

the whole thing is plastic. It might last longer if you got a soft water filter to keep from the hard water deposits from building up. Also if you dont have very good water pressure its not worth it
