What type of foam are the blades made of?

I can't say what the blades are made of, but our 2-year old twin granddaughters would touch them while the fan was running causing the spinning to stop but not hurting their fingers at all. We did find that they provided a cool breeze. The only problems I had with them were that they went through batteries quickly and that it was difficult to find something to clip them to in the car in order for the fan to provide the most air to the kids.

Not sure what kind. They are very soft so if a baby touched it, it wouldn't even phase them. But that was also their down fall. It was so soft that it didn't really cool down my kids. Also, the blades fell out after the first use.

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.

NOT GOOD IDEA. Blades are made of some type of composite material with a laminate over them . On one of my blades the laminate was loose and I re glued it.

Hi Jim-The blades are generic and the machine is a beauty! It just gets the job done.

Elizabeth... I have no idea what the blade is made of but can tell you that my son has one as do I ... both of us use it almost daily for over two years and I have only sharpened min once... it's very sharp and it holds it's edge quite well!

You can. However anything thicker like foam core is not possible. It really is a matter of wanting to manipulate what is being cut, and with this type of blade, it is not possible.

These swords are all foam, no plastic. Same material throughout. They are very sturdy, good quality. I still have many of them all over my house from a birthday party a year and a half ago. They keep their shape and are soft enough that if you get "stabbed" with it, it won't hurt.

I would imagine foam. So far, we have had it six months, it is holding up wonderfully.

Don't know about the blades as I pulled the unit out of the box and realized that it would never hold up to any sort of serious use. (I am a serious user)I shoved it back into the box and sent it back. It's a piece of crap.

I'm not sure what they're made of, but it's a soft foam material. They are permanently affixed.

The material is a dense, plastic foam. They are very light weight and work well.

Blades sit on a "domed" piece that is some type of material, feels more rubbery. There are plastic parts on the underside where the motor engages. Looks very similar to the mechanisms on all blenders but Oster (they use metal).

The sword blade is a firm, but somewhat flexible foam, while the handle is made similar to the material of a boogie board. Hope that helps.

The blades are plastic. But one feature I like is the front screen snaps off easily to make wiping down the blades very easy.

They are actually hard foam, really nice! I have Italian tile floors and was happy when I saw these wheels. ;)

As far as I can tell, they are plywood. They have a wood veneer (on one side) that's probably been attached with some sort of resin. The blades are hard & stiff, not like "just" plywood - so I'm figuring some resin or glue was used to wet the wood when it was put in a press to set the twist in the blade. No matter what they used to make the fan - they don't "look" like plastic (which is what I think you're worried about?)
