What shape is the paddle, is it round wire or more substantial?

Its a metal paddle. Seems somewhat fragile. Hard to wash that part but I have had this popper for 8 months and its been great. Used it several times. I really love popcorn.

It isn't exactly flat, but about as high as a popcorn kernel. When you turn the handle it moves the two metal pieces and works very well to keep popcorn from burning. I agree that it is somewhat delicate and I am very careful when washing. This popper makes great popcorn, but I never did get an answer or a resolution to my wooden handle having a crack in it. It still works, but when you buy new you don't want cracks.

It is more substantial than that. It is a flat piece of metal that is 3/8" high and approximately 1/16" thick. It spans the diameter of the pan in a shape that loosely resembles a "z". The paddles are tall enough to push kernels and popcorn around.

It is flat and quite sturdy and substantial..The popper is very good and great northern popcorn is the best I've ever eaten.

The paddle floats, that's the first thing I tested after buying it. It's actually a really nice paddle for the money

I know this isn't a definitive answer to your question, but I purchased the round and it was in fact round. I am "guessing" that the oblong shape would be mainly rectangular in shape BUT with the corners rounded off.

The handle is oval, not round as the previous user stated. It is probably hollow with a cap on the end but is very sturdy feeling. These items have a very comfortable feel to them.

The blades are straight but with a slight curve in them like a spoon. There are adjustment holes so you can have the blades in a different position from the other. I love this paddle, it's the only one I use.

it's about 3/8" round. hope this helps - pretty much what you see is what you get.

the dimensions of o.7 x 1.4 x4" are telling you the size of the small paddle (piece of cardboard) the wire is wound around, the 110' is the length of the wire wound around the paddle. i have not measued it but from the thickness of the wound wire on the paddle which looks to be about 3/4", i would say that the length of the wire as being 110' long is right. it's a large amount of wire for sure. i've had this in the past/years ago for making wreaths and had no complaints at all. i have not used the purchase i made from amazon in recent times yet. but it appears to be the same quantity and quality i had years ago which says a lot! and it goes a long way.

This one is round. It looks really nice and for the price it is a great buy. I looked at the original one with the square metal and was not too impressed to pay 10x the price

Yes it is P shaped with adhesive on the flat of the P. the round section is 3/8 diameter and collapses to about 3/16, it is hollow. The flat side is 1 inch.

The paddle is a perfect instrument. About 8"; wide the pole is no more than two inches. I have been very happy with mine.

Round shape and push connection. The connection is a lot easier to use than the one that came with the TomTom. Must better connection. I love it

It looks round but when you install it, as you push down it actully is not true round. It shapes out a little. That what i notice on my force motor.To answer it is more rectangular, than round.If that makes sense.

approx. 2 3/4". hard to tell exactly with a tape measure because it is round

I received one, which is what I was expecting. It's a decent paddle. I play against my high school students, and it works as well as any paddles they bring. The surface is sufficiently sticky to make spinning easy.

Not heavy at all....rather on the light side. I've only used it as a drama prop, so won't be able to tell how it'd feel if used as a paddle in water.

mostly squared. there is a very tiny bevel of about 1mm. There is also a slilcone piece that attaches to the bottom to slow the swing and block water.

I don't recall.. I ordered this for my daughters "Big", but I have to say, this was a large paddle.
