Do the wheels lock? We would use this in a room with hard wood floors and I'm afraid it will slide around.

The wheels do not lock. I have it on a wood floor and have not had issues with sliding.

I don't know about the legs but you can lock the wheels. Mine are not locked and it's very stable unless you lean on it.

Mine has three spoke wheels made of hard plastic and they are very sturdy. I sit on my walker a lot and have not had any issues. Also, I've personally not experienced any sliding on hard floors.

Yes. I use it on plush carpet, so I didn't want the wheels on it. I left the wheels off, and I can easily slide it around on the carpet.

The wheels are hard, but rotate and swivel easily. I have hardwoods throughout my home and have had absolutely no trace of damage. Hope this answer helps.

Yes, the wheels lock. There is a small lever beneath each handle grip (you can see it if you look closely at the photo). You simply push the lever down and the wheels lock in place.

Hi Pam-Anela,My Boyfriend assembled this in thier living room, which they have a hardwood floor and I don't see any problem afterwards. It rolls smoothly, easy to moves and impressive quality.

Yes it will slide on hardwood floors, we placed something beside it on the outside to stop it. I didn't remember getting anything to prevent it sliding, but it might have!

Yes, but I would recommend that you get some kind of protection for the floor if it is wood or carpet. I purchased two of these carts and am using one with the wheels and one without the wheels. I am very pleased with both carts. I bought end caps from Lowe's for the legs of the one that I am using without the wheels. The wheels will lock, but I needed one about 4 inches shorter, so removing the wheels made it ideal.

I am reasonably sure the wheels do not lock and no, that is not a problem for me. I have been happy with the product.

No. It is generally to keep a bed or couch from sliding on hard wood floors

Yes it does, but I would not buy it again. Even if you lock the wheels it will slide and child will fall. NOT worth the money.

It takes both my wife and myself to move the unit. We have it in a room that is carpeted, it may be easier to move on a hard wood floor. The unit is quite heavy and the wheels are very small. I hope this helps.

Hi Michelle, no they do not have a locking mechanism. It's fine on carpet. On wooden floors they do roll fairly easily. Though much like the ball requires you to stabilize your core to prevent movement. The casters also require you to maintain muscle control to prevent movement, though not much. I've not had any problems on wooden floors or carpet for that matter.Regards

I would advise against adding wheels. 2 people could pick this unit up with some not too heavy items on it and move it, or you can put an area rug under it and drag it around, as I do with heavy furniture. Or you can use the little round padded furniture floor protectors that you'd use under table legs or chair legs if you're moving it around on tile or hardwood. Please, don't try to put wheels on it. It is a very sturdy and pretty heavy unit, but it isn't designed be wheeled around. One person can pretty easily pick up the unit and move it without anything on the shelves. Hope this helps...

No, there is no way to lock in the wheels. It doesn't like to roll very much on carpet, so maybe putting something similar underneath at mealtimes would keep it stationary. It's a great walker since there are no do-dads on it like the other brands. I found that part appealing.
