I can't verify the exact specs of what you guys are getting... but I can tell you... Anyone who had a powdercoated one and is now getting chrome. They're SOOOO not even comparable. The chrome ones have SERIOUS heft.. they're MUCH more durable, look and feel much more 'high end'... you'll be thrilled for the switch out. Trust me. And keep in mind these are similar units to what other places are selling for considerably more money. You're ending up with a NICE unit here... Really nice. I have a stainless with the v1 internals, and the chrome with the updated internals is so my ideal. lol They're REALLY nice.
