We don't have hardwood floors but do have a small amount of laminate. My wife feels that there is no concern.

I haven't had a problem with it scratching my wood floor. It just doesn't pick up much.

I use this vacuum on hardwood and haven't noticed any problems. For the money I think this is a great vacuum. I have another Electrolux at 3 times the price and I actually prefer this one.

I have hardwood floors and 2 cats. No issues with litter scratching floors.

I just took a look at the bottom. I don't see anything that would scratch hardwood floors. It has the two main wheels in the back and two small rollers under the vacuum head. Both of these are medium to firm rubber. Should be good to go.Jim

Sorry we can't help you, we do not have hardwood floors, we have laminated floors and the vacuum works great. Hope this helps.

I haven't noticed it scratching my hardwood floors, (or any other floors), but my wood floors are parquet, and are not covered with polyurethane, so scratches would be less noticeable anyway.

Yes. There is a button you push, which adapts the vacuum for hardwoods. It works quite well. We have hardwoods in several areas and am pleased with the performance. I hope this helps.

Yes its a little rough sounds like it scratches the floor but it hasn't yet I have oak floors and it does the trick its very light ..so no pressure has to be applied to vacuum. .

No Jason it will not, my floors are mostly wood. The two large wheels are both rubber and one small plastic wheel in which the sweeper spins and turns on. The bristles on the brush are soft as well. It does bounce on furniture and baseboards but no scuff marks or damage. I am very particular about my things and would not recommend this sweeper if it caused damage. You would also find that in other peoples reviews that use iRobot.

We have laminate wood floor and it doesn't scratch it at all. I'm not sure how it would do on real hardwood.

Hi the brushes for the combination carpet/hard flooring nozzle are soft enough that they will not scratch any surface. If you want you can always get the hardwood floor attachment which is made of horsehair bristles, which are firm but gentle cleaning of your hard flooring surfaces. hope this helps.

Oh, NO, please don't. I wish I had asked others like you do now before I purchased and used them on my wood floor. I have scratches on my floor now. The contact side is hard plastic. So if there is any tiny debris or particles, it leaves scratches. Even it is absolutely clean, the contact is not smooth for moving and causes damage easily. Noop...

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

Plastic, and yes, it will scratch hardwood floors. You will need to get the horse hair brush attachment. It works incredible.

I use mine on our hardwood floors and it hasn't scratched them yet. I always put it on the setting that your supposed to for them.

I noticed the DC25 left a scratch on our new engineered wood floor. My solution was to wrap the wheels and the middle section of the ball with masking tape. Kind of a nuisance to have to do that with a $400 vacuum, but it no longer scratches!
