First of all, the chrome refers to the color of the plastic only, as the entire lid is made of plastic. Furthermore, the cap it has is not suitable for honey but rather for syrup. Thick liquids, like honey, are difficult to pour out, thus increasing the required time. Finally, after a few days of use, it started to leak visibly from the screw on which the lid is screwed, resulting in me having to permanently use a paper towel to avoid any mess.
