How flexible is the cord? Is it completely flexible like a string or just a little flexible within limits dictated by a pre-formed shape?

It is "a little flexible within limits dictated by a pre-formed shape", you wouldn't be able to tie knots w/ the cord or fold it in half. It's somewhat flexible though.

The cord is a flexible wire but is pre-shaped to curve around your ears or you can stretch it around the back of your head.

It's not flexible like a cord but flexible enough to get around the back of your head and ears! I have mine for quite some time now and I love tnem! Hope that it'll help!

I don't like using it with the cord because of how stiff it is. I've only owned mine for two days though, so it might get better with use.

Coiled it's maybe a foot long, but it can stretch to almost three feet. Unless you are in really cold temperatures then the cord freezes and doesn't move til it's warm again

I would say it's in between. Very good quality, easy to work with and most important to anyone crafting with Paracord, it splices very good. I have never had any problems with Paracord Planet cord.

I would say it's pretty flexible. I used it on the arm of a 5 yr old without a problem.

It's a curly/stretchy cord. At rest, it's about 18 inches; you could stretch it 3 feet without issue. At four feet, you might have to secure the cord near the unit so there is no tension on the socket. Otherwise, it /might/ be prone to pulling out of the socket depending on the angle.

I wasn't sure so I just tested it. I wound it around 2 fingers on my hand so I would say its firm but very flexible & coils easily . Hope that helps.

No, the cable is not stiff enough to hold a shape and will not hold a coiling the shape on its own as shown in the picture. It is rubber, not wire. Hope that helps.

It's incredibly sturdy. I don't know that I would describe it as "flexible." It's very heavy gauge wire.

It is very flexible it is just like a coax cable wire or normal head phone wire just built stronger

No, the wire is fairly stiff. I suppose you might be able to bend it with some force but it might break.

The cord as is is 5 feet. Stretched would be 19 feet. It would not hurt the cord to be stretched either.

Eh, it's not the most flexible stuff I've ever used, but it's not that stiff either. It's about on par with any other low count stranded when it comes to flexibility. In general, the higher the strand count the more flexible the wire. Wire with silicon insulation is usually much more flexible as well. This stuff is nowhere near 'wet noodle' soft, but it can still be bent easily enough.

Very flexible. You can bent this without problem. You can do this practically 180 degree

The cord isn't too thick. It's like a medium size thickness, not to thin to snap but not too thick that its noticable. Mine hasn't snapped, so I think it depends on the wear and tear of the material. I hope this helps.

It's a coiled cord that's about 18 inches (45cm) unextended. Extending it is stiff, but it will extend to about 30 inches (80cm) or so.
