Can you use these on carpeted floors?

Well, we use them on both carpet and wood flooring. But the carpet is not a real plush/fluffy kind of carpet. Probably would make a difference. = }

Yes! My 8 yr old was actually playing with this toy in our carpeted family room tonight.

Shorter pile carpet can work- hard floors are best. We often use in the kitchen.

They work great on carpet and laminate, but you would have to switch out sliders. Hard plastic for the carpet, and then the felt backed for the laminate. Not all sliders have the felt, so limited on the slider size.

would not recommend you use them that way but I know there are few options for in floor plugs. Remember your carpet is stretched when it is installed. Cutting a large hole could cause problems. Talk to your carpet installer and if you do use themonly use them in a non foot traffic area. You could only put them under a table, chair, sofa ect.These are not for carpeted areas (unless the carpet is very thin) but the would be safer than cutting the carpet and pulling an electrical cord thru the hole

Mine are used directly on vinyl plank flooring and I don't have any problems. Maybe they would work better directly on the floor rather than on a mat.

NO...the instructions say not to use on carpet or wooden floors. A simple fix is to buy four floor tiles at a home improvement center and put those on your carpet with the foot warmer on top. That is what I did and it works great.

If I remember correctly, one attaches the spikes, so one may choose not to use them. They are for carpeted floors.

I'm Afraid NOT ... I ordered these to help me solve the issue of not being able to move around here in my home office, which was carpeted with 1/2" pile carpet. These wheels made very little or no difference. Mobility is important to me (now that I'm disabled) so I gave up and had hardwood flooring installed here in the office. Now I have to buy 4 different wheels (the soft rubber kind) as these are too hard for my new floor and will scratch it (as told to me by the flooring people and verified by several office supply stores). So, the short answer is NO. Sorry, I ,too, was looking for an inexpensive solution, but it didn't workout.

Yes, it works well on carpeted floors. It will add some slight resistance but nothing that will damage the carpet.

Honestly, I don't think they would adhere well to carpet because they need a solid surface to grasp and the fibers of carpet would break down the sticky side. You're welcome to try, but I don't think they'll stick.

Yes, they work fine on carpet or floor. If you have a few locked together on carpet, they don't slide.

Yes most likely. They are not heavy squares so any heavy movement, especially on carpet, will likely move them.

Probably not... they are super small and so unless your carpet was flat like office carpet then they probably won't roll very well. They would work better than nothing, but a larger wheel would roll better, I think, on standard carpet.

I don't know. I sent them back because I couldn't get them on the chairs. As I remember they were padded on the bottom to protect hardwood floors, so I bet they wouldn't slide on carpet but I don't know for sure.

I would not. These are hard plastic and are mainly for carpets. You could attach some felt pads to make them work on hard surfaces like wood or tile.

Yes. It would not work on carpeting. I have vinyl floors and so does my daughter in law as this was a gift for my grandson. Beware--it is noisy but the kids love it.

They work well on light area rugs, but I have one heavier area rug that they don't slide smoothly on. I wouldn't think you would need them on carpet. I only use them because I have laminate flooring.
