Are the wheels or caster on this chair safe on hard wood floor? Will it scratch my hardwood floor?

I have them on fake wood laminate and no problems. They won't scratch but may wear the finish if repeatedly travelled over the same path.

Yes, I believe they did scratch our wood floor when the chairs slid in and out from our island. However, I placed (inexpensive) pads on the bottom of all the legs/feet & that took care of it. I still love these chairs- although my kids are constantly swiveling back n forth when sitting in them, which nicks up the wood on the sides of the chairs (from our granite counter top). Wished I would have got non-swivel/stationary chairs.

I haven't used it on hard wood, only tile and it glides pretty easy. I'm also only 180 and it hold me but after an hour or so of doing homework the seat becomes a little uncomfortable. I also had a screw missing but thankfully my old chair had the same one so it was an easy fix. It's a great chair for the price but not recommended if you plan on sitting for long periods.

On tile, ok. I found it to scratch my laminate [?wheels]so I'm would not use it on wood floors.

No! It does not scratch my hardwood floors, and the vacuum is far superior than any vacuum I have ever owned. It has two motors and the head swivels. So awesome! It is heavy however...but I workout with weights at the gym. Hope this helps!

It is a metal frame. I don't think it would damage carpet, similar to having a piece of furniture on your carpet. As for hardwood floors, you would not want to scrape it . Mine is in our laundry room on a slate floor and we have not had any problems with movement.

The bottom is a curved plastic. I use it on a carpet surface. The only way it would scratch your hard wood is if some debris is stuck to the base. If you keep a clean floor it shouldn't be a problem.

I agree with Joey... I would cancel your purchase of this chair if I were you. The hydraulics went within a few weeks, the material scratches really easily, and all the side screw covers didn't fit in properly. To answer your question, I use mine on a hardwood floor and it doesn't seem to have caused any damage to it.

I believe it would still scratch the hardwood floor. The wheels screw into a metal base inside the bars. However, you may be able to file down or have covered.

The wheels are made of hard plastic. I've wheeled my cart on my hardwood floor but only once. I didn't notice any damage.

No, the casters will not scrape hard wood floors. I love it I use it all the time.

There are no protrusions on the underside that would cause damage to a wooden floor, but since the bottom rail is made of wood also it would inevitably cause scratching, unless you glued some felt strips onto it. The other consideration is that removing the wheels would reduce the geight of the chair seat by about 2.5 inches, so make it uncomfortably low for desk work.

The wheels are made of hard plastic and would not scratch hardwood. My grandkids use this train on hardwood with no ill effects to the wood.

It is hard plastic ....I don't see any damages to my wooden hard floor . It's no scratch at all.

I cannot be certain as I have only used on hardwood and tile/ carpet. The back is a hard plastic that is smooth. However, if the furniture is very heavy I guess it could scratch soft marble. I have had no problem with hardwood fllooring

The base is metal with a hard plastic encircling the base and separating the metal from the floor. It's hard plastic, not rubber like, so it might scratch a hard wood floor.
