Does the finish flake off? Or is it reasonably durable?

It's very durable. I've had this product in my last home and current home and the finish looks just as good as the day I installed it.

Very durable...no problems with flaking at all in the last year or so since purchase

The finish is solid. We have had this item since July of 2013 and there is no sign of wear. My husband is not easy on his either, he yanks his towel off it. They still look brand new and we will be getting more for the kids bathroom. I did not purchase the shiny chrome bar, it is brushed nickel which is beautiful.

I had the finish on the back side right under the head flake off after about 1 year of use. Six months later I had that part replaced under warranty. There is no more stenciled text on it, which is where I believe the flaking started. That was about 10 months ago. Now I see that at the edge of that part the finish starts to separate again. A few days the lock button on the side stopped doing its job. It just moves freely. Dunno if anything broke though because there is nothing rattling inside and I do not recall anything falling out. I think it is rather hard to miss a piece fall out. Maybe some part in there is just stuck with stubble accumulation.

Yes. I have not had it more than a few months. But I am still just as pleased with it. What I cannot report on is durability.

Hi - I've been using this for probably over a year now and I have not seen any flakes. Great little beater for the price.

I've had mine for almost a year and use it a couple times a month. I'm careful with it but it's held up just fine. I wouldn't consider it super durable but there's that fwiw.

It is a nice shiny finish. We have owned them for a few months and they still look new.

Pretty sure it is polished stainless, though I couldn't say for sure. I have had no flaking with 2+ months of heavy use (3-4 uses per day)

I've not seen any flakes either. It is a great beater for the price of it. I find the basket very convenient for limited storage space.

I've had it for 8 months now...no it hasn't flaked. I wouldn't use a scouring brush though. I just use a sponge.

well to be honest, the Chrome DOES in fact flake off, and yes it is sharp metal flakes that end up on the floor. It does not flake off to bare metal, it seems as if they are double dipped and the outer layer has some excess that flakes off. I work out with glasses on and I wear running shoes on my feet, but I was constantly picking up chrome for about a yr after purchase.

I haven't had it for very long, and my answer would have to be, "eventually," but I have to say that the finish is pretty slick and tight and it gets wet and dries out a lot better than I thought. I don't know about having it wet like 24/7 though.

I had mine for a few months and it's fine..i can't see it wearing out that easily.

No flaking. But it suffered through lots of wear and tear of travel over the 18 months or so. Leather edges were starting to peel away. getting Finally replaced it with the same item. I'm very satisfied.

I have had the set for over a year and have not experienced any chipping or flaking. The set is used pretty regularly (sometimes multiple times a day). The outside paint job has started to wear with all the washing but it's not really noticeable unless you were overly familiar with the set.

I've had mine for 4 months and use it daily. So far no signs of wear. It may be useful to note I am particularly easy on my things. I handle it with clean hands and set it on clean flat surfaces or in a protected pocket of a bag while traveling.

we have had ours about 9 months. Seems to be holding up good so far; but I threw some lacquer on it after we got it.

It's good! I've been using mine for a couple of months now. It's showing no signs of falling apart.
