Are the blades plastic or metal? Thanks!

Plastic, not really a blade. Looks like a flower daisy. Not dish washer safe.

They are plastic, but they seem to be pretty darn strong. I haven't had an issue out of mine yet, and I'm pretty hard on 'em.

The Blades are made from some type of Steel... Don't worry they're not sharp... But you could hit some one hard with them.

The material around the blade is metal where as the other is plastic. Our older plastic model failed around the area where it stops the blade from spinning around

Yes, the blades are stainless steel. We've had this product for several months and it has worked perfectly.

Ever is a long time, but these blades are made out of coated stainless steel. I've used an average of one blade per 4 days for a few years and I've never experience rusting.

The blades (both of them) are stainless steel as is the shaft connecting the blades to the underside rotor. All I can see, other than what I described above is plastic.

According to my daughter they are plastic with metal on them. This was purchased as a gift for my granddaughter :)

The blades are not metal. i believe the blades are wood with a plastic covering to endure exterior use. This is an excellent product for exterior use. I have two fanS installed on a covered patio (OPEN ON BOTH ENDS) on a 6 ft down rod. Both fans were easy to install with no wobble. I do not believe metal fan blades would be a good choice for fan in a PARTIAL/ OPEN exterior (RUST/WEIGHT) LOCATION. This is my second year year with these fans, currently have had no problems.

They are metal but they have plastic sheaths on the ends that contact the cross-bar. We have been happy with this bin.

They are plastic, and they hold up well. I wasn't sure I wanted plastic, but they work great.

Its light weight so I would have to say plastic, but it certainly is sturdy. The one I have at the house I have had since they used to sell these razors (something I have not found in a long time) It is a sturdy piece of equipment. This is why I got one for my travel kit as well here on Amazon.

Sorry I didn't keep them as someone had dropped them before shipping and bent the end of the blades. Seems like very soft metal. They are connected via magnets. I'm not sure how they would be used as a staff?

I handwash the components. The stainless steel blades are, the plastic parts I don't know. The blades are light and might get moved around in the washer.

They appear to be steel. They don't rust but they do lose their sharpness over time. Once dull they need replaced otherwise, it won't work. They usually last two months.

Blades are metal.. This fan is awesome, I haven't had a need to turn it past low... Medium and high put out a HUGE amount of air displacement.. Great buy all around.

It's made of plastic with metal cutting blades... Be careful though as there is some false advertising so make sure it actually does you want. Read my review for details.
