Can you leave it on the ground? Will it get the ground wet? I have wood floors and can't put unit on anything elevated.

I put mine on a cheap TV tray that I got from Target. It doesn't seem to get wet during the night. It does need to be on a hard surface, I was worried and put it on a towel the first night and the towel was damp in places the next morning. (Could be also from when I put the tank in, water might have dripped out.) But straight on the tray, no problems with wetness.

There is no water just wet pads. It sucks up the dirt and cleans the spots pretty good. The pads seem loose effective ness on large expanses of floor. We have 1000 sq feet. I like the fact that it saves you a step because you don't have to sweep and mop. I would say it works pretty good on small wood floors but it's not perfect. I sprayed some floor cleaner down to help it along. Hope this helps.

I haven't tried it on a hardwood floor.I read the bottle and it doesn't say anything about hardwood floors either.I would try a small area first to test it.Sorry im not much help.I did buy some other stuff called "Get Serious" and you can use that on all floors you can put water on,maybe try that.Works great on grout.

I have mine on carpet and wanted to put some kind of slider under it. However, I found it too heavy (even empty!) to move easily since the unit spins but the bottom doesnʻt. So I left it as is. To move it, I empty it and then slowly push it using the base.

It would need to be pushed into the ground, or somehow weighted down, to keep it standing upright. Mine has been fine by simply pushing it into the dirt.

It is elevated by rubber feet. I actually took the feet off (they are threaded on with screws) Where I wanted to place the mat, I didn't like it being raised on feet. I don't think it will dry underneath as well without the rubber feet, but I was willing to try it and see what happens.

Yes you can use it on a wood floor. The suction cups might not work, but it comes with plastic covers for the suction cups.

I have it on a wood floor, but I honestly do not see why not. It was a good buy for us.

I would not recommend using it unless mounting it on the wall. It is not sturdy enough with a wide enough base to stand on the floor and be used. When wall mounted it works wonderfully and I am very happy with my purchase.

I have mine on wood floors, but the heat actually blows straight out from underneath. My floors are not getting hot or even feeling warmer than they should. Also worth noting is that this unit sits about 5 3/4" off the ground. Unless you have a thick, loose pile carpeting you should have no problem at all!

I never saw a notice to mount it a minimum of 7 feet off the floor. Mine is mounted about 1.5 feet down from a 10 foot ceiling so with the height of the unit makes it about 7+ feet off the floor. It is mounted over a workbench so there is no danger of hitting it with work pieces moving around, but it seems like the right height for the unit. I would think that you could mount it at any height that would make sure you don't hit it with moving your work pieces around. As for operating the unit, it seems to me that the closer you can place it to the source of dust and airborne particulates, is the best place to mount it.

I have it mounted about a foot above the floor, no issues. It's a very self-contained unit so mounting shouldn't matter that much, it's make sure the space in front is clear.

I think it would be fine on carpeted floor. The bottom of the unit doesn't heat up at all.

Considering that there is no floor, nor do the sides come down and `seal' the unit from moisture, we cannot recommend this usage for any of our auto shelters. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

As it is a floor model only - I don't think so. If you crawled up on your bed to bring the unit up with you, it just would not work, as it clearly will not be flat like your floors to steam.

Not a strange question. The manual that came with it said put it on hard floors. I guess it depends on if your floor is cushioned. It needs to be firmly on its 4 legs. It didn't say anything about the possible moisture that I noticed.

No, it is too tall. When loaded it is very heavy so do not use on wood floors or other areas where the surface is weak.
