The plate included with my order was made of metal that matched the faucet, but I did not need to use the plate.

The base plate is metal and would naturally match the finish of the faucet.

All three of my faucets included a matching metal base plate, which I also installed with the faucets.

The chrome is polished and the black base is matte. It's very well made and is worth the money.

The black base is a hard vinyl/plastic, and the metal rings are chromed. They look pretty good on my truck, and were easy to install with just a screwdriver.

Hi. It does not look like brushed nickel at all. The "stainless" finish has the gloss, shine and reflection of CHROME. It's nice if you want a shiny finish!

It looks to be -- it is shiny silver metal; what screws onto the base is plastic

It's chrome plated metal. It works great, is long as you don't lock the deadbolt from the outside.

I think it is chrome plated. It is a great product. We bought it to go in our community assoc.'s clubhouse and it fit the bill perfectly. Everyone has been impressed.

It looks like chrome to me. If it's plastic, they did a good job making it look like chrome

I just went out to look up at mine and I would say they are more like brushed nickel. I can't see a way to add photo here but I would if I could. I installed two on outside above deck.

Both pieces are chrome-plated. I bought and installed one a few months ago. It looks very nice.

It is definitely plastic, but doesn't look like plastic. The brushed nickel appearance is nice. It doesn't feel cheap or look cheap. I think it's a great value for the money. I don't regret the purchase.

Made of chrome but the finish is brushed nickel look. It is definitely brushed. Hansgrohe has a fabulous warranty. All parts have a lifetime replacement. This is a great product and company. Highly recommend this faucet.

It's metal. I ordered the silver which isn't as shiny as chrome. Looks more like brushed nickel but a little shinier. I installed it in my kitchen along with a dimmer and it looks and works great. Very easy installation. Length of cord (height from ceiling is easily adjustable)

Mine is nickel colored. Looks well built no plastic. Haven't installed but looks similar to other fixtures I have put in. Looks to be standard universal size

Yes, the stainless version I got matched the rest of the fixtures in my shower that were described at brushed nickel. I wound up piecing together a bunch of stuff from Danze, Delta, Koko, and Signature Hardware, everything that was described as stainless, brushed, nickel, brushed nickel, brushed stainless or matte stainless seems to match well enough that I can't discern any difference.

It is not chrome. It's brushed stainless. I'm really happy with it. I felt for the money it was great.
