I'm confused-again! The description states that the scale is chrome but one of the reviewers states that it is plastic, which is it?

It appears to be plastic to me. It has a chrome finish and the pedestal is highly reflective--mirror-like.

It is chrome-colored. It is plastic, but I think it is well made. It doesn't matter so much that it is plastic because you aren't weighing anything heavy enough to break it. It works really well, and is super easy to use. I use mine at least once a day!

It is a beautiful chrome-looking scale, but it is plastic. I have not used it for anything more than weighing food for a specific diet. Hope this helps.

The base or body is black plastic with chrome finish accents. The platform is chrome finished plastic. No metal.

The color of the scale is "chrome", but it is definitely made of plastic. This scale has worked quite well for me...I wasn't so sure at first because it is really light weight.

The body of the scale is black plastic and the weighing platform appears to be chromed plastic.

I am considering this as well- but in Amazon's description- it says: "material- ABS" - which is plastic-- can someone definitely confirm this is not chrome paint covering plastic?

its hard to tell but i believe it is plastic. very nice though. i think i almost prefer the plastic when i think about it because no chance of rusting. (and it is not chintzy).

It is chrome plated plastic. I guess it is made so for portability, otherwise you would need a fork lift to move it around your kitchen.

It is plastic. However, it is tiny. Like doll size. Dont buy it for a kid to play with. It is for a kid to have their doll play with. We returned ours when it came in a tiny box and we realized we had been fooled

I thought it was metal, but it is chrome painted plastic. Doesn't feel cheap though. I was a little disappointed, but it is a good mixer.

It's plastic. But it's pretty sturdy, we've used ours several times since we got it.

I am not sure if it is steel but it is metal, painted white. The part you stand on to weigh is black and textured to be non-slip. Very sturdy. The numbers are raised metal and marked, are painted and well defined. Easy to read. Very, very happy with this scale. Easy to calibrate because I have moved this set around several times. Loaned it for six months to the county extension office for a weight loss contest program. Several people over 300 pounds and the scales worked great. The county is planning on buying one for their extension office and my brother also has bought a set. Couldn't be happier!! I am not sure if it is steel but it is metal, painted white.

Sorry, I don't know anything about the scale you mention. All I do know is that this one works wonderfully and my daughter liked mine so well I had to get her one so she wouldn't keep borrowing mine.

The part that picks up your electrical signals is metal, the rest I guess is acrylic plastic I guess. Really looks nice and seems seemless. Love the scale. I have two of them.

My first one (not from Amazon) was plastic. It broke. The one I ordered from Amazon is steel. So far, it has not broken.

It's chrome. I was very disappointed as well since it's categorized as stainless steel

it is chrome, i too was confused by the "red" listing. I really love it. It's sturdy and looks beautiful

It is plastic. I'm very pleased with it. I've had it for about 6 months now.

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

The description says it is chrome. It would probably be much more expensive if it were stainless steel.

It's chrome. And, it's heavy like a commercial unit. It's built on the order of a KitchenAid quality wise.
