chair scratching hardwood: Do you have trouble with this chair scratching your hardwood floors?

We personally position them where they can be used by just swivelling. Once sitting in them, it's hard to move them and before sitting in them, if they're set at the proper place for free movement, you don't need to move them. When we do move them, we lift up and set down. Anything can scratch a wood/laminate floor.

No, it does not scratch the wooden floors. It does a beautiful job cleaning them, and is so quiet.

I have laminate wood flooring, not hardwood floors. I usually sweep and mop that floor, but I got my vacuum out to answer your questions and went over the laminate floor with it. There is no scratching at all whatsoever and it does pick up dirt and stuff just fine. I've even picked up a few pebbles or a small screw, etc. with no ill effects. Great vacuum! The rotating brush on the floor doesn't bother me or seem to make a lot of noise. Just the same sound from the carpet to the laminate flooring with a little more hollow sound on the hard floor.

Maria, I use the chair as in occasional chair in my living room. It doesn't have scratches on it but it does not get heavy use either

Hi KT, I have the desk on hardwood floors and haven't had any problems. The desk stays pretty stationary and isn't a problem and I'm careful about how I move the chair in and out. I imagine I could find some pad or another protective cover for the chair legs but I haven't had a need to do so. Hope this helps. The desk has worked out really well for me ... I have a small space and just needed something to keep organized. I also have pulled together the wrought iron look in other areas of the room so this desk fit in quite nicely.

No! It does not scratch my hardwood floors, and the vacuum is far superior than any vacuum I have ever owned. It has two motors and the head swivels. So awesome! It is heavy however...but I workout with weights at the gym. Hope this helps!

i don't have a problem sliding chairs along the floor with these little booties on the feet of each chair. and i have heavy wrought iron chairs, and i have hardwood floors. i L.O.V.E. these things. they're sooo much better than those silly stick on felt covered discs (which, btw, never stayed on in the 1st place). i even have them on my bathroom stool, so my marble floor doesn't get scratched.

My chair is on carpet as well and I've had zero problems with it. Works like a charm!

I also have hardwood floors, and it hasn't scratched them from what I can tell (my dog mainly plays on the carpet with it). It is designed to roll and doesn't have much of an area that would scratch floors.

We mostly use ours on carpets and no issues there. If hardwood floors have sand/dirt and the board is rubbed over it, the chances are good it will scratch.

I am using this chair on hardwood floors and there has been no problem. No history with tile or stone.

The chairs come with plastic feet. You screw them in and yes, I can imagine they would scratch a composite wood floor. Felt feet would be better but the plastic feet are so small, you would have trouble applying felt feet to them. Better to apply the felt feet directly to the chair feet without using the plastic feet.

We have the nail-in magic sliders on 8 heavy solid wood chairs -- our floors are very uneven - 3 x 6 inch terrazo bricks with very deep and wide grouting in between. Our chairs are pulled in and out from the table several times a day and I think in 5 or 6 years of use, maybe one slider has fallen off. The chairs are almost silent, and there are no marks on the floor. I would suggest getting the largest diameter glides that will fit the base of your chair legs, to even out the floor roughness.

Depends on the chair. It's not a huge investment to try. They do scratch wood floors. We had to put felt tabs on bottom. Have you tried using tennis balls? They can be cut to fit any chair.

Mine has little plastic ends on the bottom of the legs. I have hardwood floors and they do not scratch.

I haven' had a problem at all. I do make sure there are any larger chunks of things on the floor though. A piece of glass might flip around in the beater bar and scratch the wood. That's the case with any vacuum I suppose. I've been really happy with it. Only complaint is that the cord gets in the way.
