will this item work on a berber carpet

If the carpet is very thick, probably not. My berber is fairly "flat" and it does work okay there for the young ones...older kids would have more fun on linoleum or wood floors, or pavement....

It should. If you have a young child or new/fluffy berber carpet, it may be more work to move the scooter. If the child is 5+ or the carpet is old/wore down a lot, it should go pretty fast. Older elementary children really make the scooters fly, so sometimes carpet is nice to slow them down a bit. Hope this helps! :)

It certainly should unless your carpet is extremely matted. I had one just like it years ago when we had the long shag. Now we just carpeted with a medium multi-colored shag and it's great.

Ours does fine in same set-up (concrete basement floor with pad and carpet, but no mat). We have not had a problem with it moving or damaging berber carpet.

It's designed to work on non carpeted flooring. If the pile of the carpet is too thick it will not work well.

My family room has a berber carpet (that's getting pretty filthy) and the lightness of this model concerns me re: cleaning that type of rug. To get my handvac to suck up the dirty water I really lean on it to increase its ability to suction. I suspect that as far as berber carpet goes, its best to get a heavier (industrial) machine, as I don't think you can push down on an upright to get it to suction better. I'll check this at the Hoover retail store near me and post a reply later.

Commercial carpets and/or carpet with a tight weave like berber but I don't think it would do well with pile carpet or loose weave carpets. It does not have rotating rollers to lift soil so it will not do well with a surface that allows dirt/debris to settle.

I have a small Moroccan and a small Turkish and it seems to work fine....cleans without stressing the fabric as far as I can tell after two weeks.

Not sure. It rolls pretty easily on berber carpet. Shag rug is long stranded...may get caught in wheels.

Yes it works well on Berber carpet without damaging it . But it doesn't work well on high nap rugs, like shag and plush. It also has a switch that toggles between rugs or a tile surface We love the Shark Navigator that we have, best vacuum we ever purchased

I use this in my hall which is berber carpeting. Haven't noticed any problems with the carpet so far and I use it almost every day.

It works well on any kind of carpet. It has different settings depending on the thickness.

My daughter has a short pile Berber carpet and it does roll pretty easily over it. Our grandson is just learning to walk and starting on the short pile carpet helps so that the toy doesn't "get away" from him if you know what I mean. Though when we gave it to him for Christmas it was at our house and we had him on the vinyl floor and he did pretty good on it with supervision. At my daughters house he likes to use it as a walking assist tool and push it around in the kitchen. He just loves it!

In general yes if you put it on most carpets or rugs. However, if you use it with a small portable ballet barre, it requires precise maneuvering to for exact placement.

I use it on my oriental and on my berber where I don't really want a rolling carpet brush. It has great suction, but no motorized carpet brush. I'm still totally in love with this many months after my purchase.

It will work on wall to wall carpet if it isn't high pile shag--low pile or Berber is fine. And it is especially great for area rugs. We love ours.

I would think so...I bought it for my nephew and he only used it outside. The older model I bought was only steel except the tracks so the bucket would not be floor friendly, however it would probably work on rug.

I do not believe it will. My table is on a thick wool, loop pile carpet and the table slides totally cleanly, with no snagging or catching at all. I think it will perform even better on a berber.
