How does the Metro Vacuum work on hard wood floors?

I returned the vacuum. I did not think it worth the money I paid for it. Tried it when I got it and thought it was fair at best.

Thanks for the question :) Actually this model works great on hardwood floors. There are 2 ways you can use it. 1. Use it in normal vacuum mode. The brushroll will continue to spin unless the vacuum is upright. However its designed to not allow the brushroll to tough your hardwood floors. In this way it sucks up the dirt without scratching floors. Also if you read the reviews on this one and the Prolux 7000 you will see several people use it for hardwood floors like this and love it. 2. The Prolux 6000 is equipped with a floor tool. If you want to you can lock the vacuum in upright position and attach the hose and tool wand to the floor tool and it works great that way as well. Let us know if you have any other questions :) Thanks Dustin

It works very well on wood floors without any special optional additional purchases. I also have travertine stone floors and it works well on those, too. I am on my third same vacuum. I love it!

I only have hard wood floors in my house and I love this vacuum. It's awesome.

It works good on wood floors; however, you need to remember that it's not a wet vacuum, it'll just remove dirt and everything, but if you prefer your wooden floors sparkling clean, they'll still need to be cleaned with a mop or whatever you prefer; I mostly use the hose on wooden floors to pick up debris in the kitchen and corridor - it's very powerful and removes everything. As for the carpet, it has low pile and deep pile mode, you just need to turn the knob on the upper part of the body. Hope that helps!

This vacuum cleaner works reat on picking up my dog's hair. On hardwoord floors, I turn off the brush and strictly use the suction. The brush is off so it does not scratch the floor from repeated use. The small rotating brush that comes ith the unit works great on furniture. I have no regrets buying this unit.

I have wood floors with area rugs and this vacuum works beautifully on both surfaces. It is easy to adjust the setting for each surface.

Our dustbuster does a very good job picking up dirt and pet hair off our hard wood floors. As far as our couches and rugs go, it lacks the power needed for the pet hair .removal

I don't know... I only have hard floors. I sweep first and get what I think is the small particals but the vacuum REALLY gets down to work!

It works of wood and tile also. It's self leveling and has powerful suction.

This vacuum stick cleaner does work with ease on hard wood floors. Do not know about Bamboo floors The Cyclone has two speeds. One for rugs and one for tile and hardwood floors. To be sure I would take a scrap of bamboo wood to a Hoover Dealer and have them demonstrate the stick on the Bamboo. Hardwood floors are really good looking but many things can scratch it like boots.

The original that comes with the vacuum is designed for hardwood or hard flooring...the attachment you are looking at is for carpeting and works a lot better!

Hi Meena, I would say check out a Miele Titan canister. It will handle both your laminate flooring and carpeting perfectly. It also has a long hose that can be used to catch all those cobwebs. If you are more interested in a upright you will need to buy a long extension hose to use for stairs, cobwebs and your hard floor surfaces. Uprights really are not designed to work well for floors. Carpets yes; One upright vacuum we have found to be very good on hard floor surfaces is the Riccar RSL4 & RSL5. But neither vacuum has the onboard tools that you need. The Cirrus Upright CR69, or CR79 could work well for you. It is a durable upright vacuum cleaner with onboard tools. It will not work for the laminate without using a long extension hose (extra), your wand (included) and a floor tool (extra). Please call me at 1-877-908-8227 (ask for Virginia) or visit www.newvacuumsonline.com to learn more.

Works best for hard surface floors. Will certainly pick up Cheerios and non adherent food, but there is no beater bar for fuzz and link so these things require a bit of persistence. The suction is much better than the eureka we had previously; very good.

I have hardwood floors as well. The brush actually flips the dirt up in the to vacuum part. Haven't had any problems at all. My floors are very dark, and show any scuff or mark, and I've not seen one from this little sweeper.

I have hard wood floors it sucks up all the dirt very well and it you engage the brush roller it helps enormously. I don't have a dog but I am sure it would work very well, overall it is a great vacuum cleaner for the price. I use my sister's Dyson when I am home in Australia and frankly I think the Hoover is as good -but better value!

Just like with most vacuums, it kicks the dirt back at our feet. Vacuum bare foot and you'll feel the particles hitting your feet. I have found that the only vacuum that doesn't do this is my canister vac and that's because it has a hard floor setting.
