Does this work if you have real hardwood floors covered by padding and carpet?

It should--the key is sinking the screw into the joists rather than the subfloor. So, as long as you can figure out where the joists are you should be good.

No it does not work on carpeted floors especially and I feel sorry for the people that buy this thinking it does. It also does not work on wood or tile floors either unfortunately.

I have used mine on our short carpet floors, but it does not work very well on carpet.

I bought these for just that reason when I had hardwood floors in my apartment. I think it dulled the noise quite a bit and would help a lot on carpet as well, but not entirely, you will still have to consciously try to jump lightly. My downstairs neighbor never came to complain.

It works ok on hardwood floors, I definitely would not use it on carpet. We bought one; I have not been all that impressed with it on either surface.

Yes, it does. What I did to minimize the movement was put down the large square rubber mats (looks like a puzzle). On carpet it may not move as much as hard wood floors (which is what I have). It also depends on how hard you hit it. I hit hard so when it moves left, I move behind it and hit it back to where it originally was. I made it a part of my workout since I kick box there is a lot of movement. It definitely is worth getting though, very good quality.

Yes it works on carpeted floor. Just be aware it will leave a weighted ring on the carpet just like any other piece of furniture. Proceed with caution based or the duration of the amount of time you keep it stored in one place on the carpet.

Yes it does :) It works on all types of carpet and then with the floor tool it cleans hardwood and tile etc. So yes it will work on any type of flooring.Let us know if you have any other questions :)Thanks DustinGreatVacs (seller)

Only have wood flooring use the special hard wood tool. Works. Believe on carpet should work as well

Yes; more precisely, I use a padded mat under the Rugbuddy, then on top I have another carpet, over the feet of some tables/sofas rest (pressing on the Rugbuddy). So far so good, after 3 weeks of usage. The instructions specify to avoid large area objects lying on top of the rug - presumably to avoid heat build-up.

I have mostly carpets, but do have one area of hardwood.It seems to do petty well.

I have used it on carpet and hardwood and it works fine on both. However, the board does move a little more on carpet but when that happens I just reposition it and keep going. It does not cause any damage underneath. Hope this helps.

I used it on our engineered hardwoods and it worked great! I'm assuming it would work on real ones, but you may want to do a test spot in a closet or something first. It sprayed on totally clear on ours, but peace of mind is always good. :)

Yes, I have a mixture of tile, carpet and hardwood floors - vacccum does a great job on all surfaces. Just remember to us lower suction on hardwood and tile.

Sorry Susan, I only have hardwood floors, so cannot adequately answer your question. The suction power is amazing, so I would assume that it would work, but can't say for sure.

Yes:we used it on the wooden floor then my partner used it on his antique truck... You just need to change pad types..

Yes it does work on carpeting, as long as it is not a deep pile. We have 2 of them and like them a lot.
