Are the blades metal or plastic ?

the blades are metal. For the money this is a very good fan. I use it as an exhaust fan for my4 bedroom two bath home. It cools the entire house, and without it, we would be very uncomfortable. Also kitchen aromas, cooking etc., are removed from the house quickly. The one item about the fan that I like is that the fan motor is SHIELDED from dust and dirt, making this fan one that will have a long life. I also use a cheap filter tied to the back of the fan to protect the life of the fan.

It's metal. I have used them for several months and no problems at all. I really like the quality of them. I have two.

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

No they are not metal. They are a hard composite plastic. They are very sturdy and sharp.

The blades are made of stainless steel. I have been using these scissors for at least a year with no problems. The blade sheath also doubles as a tool to remove any herbs left between the blades.Vern K.

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.

They are made of flexible plastic. I love this rake. I use it when I vacuum.

There is no plastic. The handles are solid metal and appear to be either forged or welded to the blade. I don't think these will ever break.

Plastic, but not flimsy by any means. I believe that the original version used phenolic plastic fan blades but am not 100% certain. These are the same dark brown color that was commonly used back in the day.

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.

They are metal. Seems to be a sturdy unit. However I use mine to wash walnuts so you would have to say that it gets only light duty.

They are all metal The body is a chromed alloy looks casted whith the edges made from a bent single piece of a steel alloy. I have been using them almost every day for an hour and they are performing flawlessly.

The piece that holds the blades together is metal. he blue plastic part simply covers the top of the "screw" that holds them together. They com apart easily and go back together easily and so far are very durable.

I am pretty sure it is plastic. They do look like metal and had to take it apart to really tell.
