Do these really protect floors from dirt and bacteria? Looking to get them for service people that come to my house and dont take shoes off.

Yes, we are in the mattress and furniture delivery business and they work beautifully.As we are in the delivery business and not the paying to clean peoples carpet business, you can be rest assured that they do work and work great, as they save us money in the long run by protecting us from any questionable "stuff" on customers flooring.

Most definitely. They just need to remember to take them off before going outside and putting them back on when returning inside. I would get the extra large to insure a good fit for larger shoes and boots.

I have a few pairs. One for washing dishes. Another to clean bathrooms or scrub floors. I use them for anything that requires me to wear latex gloves.

Sorry they are not. I have found that a double stick tape or velcro to solve the slipping problem. I also use training pads on top of these just for extra benefit if I am away. The "sticky" also helps in them "going" to the same place every time. Good luck. I have found these pads to be the most helpful training items on the market and bought five sets so I don't get caught between wash days. I have hardwood floors and the "sticky" has not been a problem on them as well.

yes - in fact i'm thinking of buying some new ones - I have used them for about 3 yrs and they're getting kind of dirty inside and i'm sure if i wash them - all the labeling will come off. Figure for the price, they've lasted a long time.

Our home has hardwood floors and I haven't noticed any scratches occurring from these feet. They are hard plastic, so rough or extended play on the floors could foreseeably result in a scratch. Ideally, these work better on carpet or a rug, since they could slide around more on the hard floor.

they are great for things like windows and walls and dusting. You can use them dry on windows and they will remove any fingerprints etc and they don't leave little fibers behind like paper towels can. I use mine with cleaning agents on other surfaces. They make great cleaning towels that way. You can wring them out and cleaning is easy. No, they don't kill bacteria and germs by themselves but no cloth does. When you wash them, do not use fabric softener because that will effect how well they clean.

I cannot say how effective they are on wood floors. I only used them on carpeted floors.

I used them on laminate floors which are very slick. These are very good for preventing movement on any surface. Therefore unlikely to cause any scratches on any floor. They are nearly one half inch in thickness and very robust. A very heavy weight will compress them some what, but I believe it would be impossible to compress them so much as to ding any floor. Certainly they would be much better than the bed alone. I cut one of them hem in quarters to put under the legs of an easy chair.

I clean floors every couple weeks for 4 months or so and haven't bought new pads yet...they are machine washable

It won't harm them, but I do cover them when I spray my shoes and my wives shoes. All the best.

Yes, they are wonderful. I bought a few extra ones as my wood floors, with critters living in the house, get pretty dirty. Don't want to wait to wash out the two, so have about 6 to do my whole house. The best !!!!

I have had no issues with them making black marks on the floors. I have had this shoe before and really liked the way they fit.

I would say this is not the right solution for you. These work good on wood floors but might get quickly worn out on concrete or brick. I would look for something else.

You pretty much just use a scrub brush to get off any dirt or other stuff that might stick to the bottom ... a damp rag does the rest. Easiest to clean shoes EVER!!!

They are very good at what they do. They have a plastic backing on them. You need a pad holder, then cut some pieces off a rug pad and glue onto the bottom of the pad holder. That should help to stop any slipping on your wood floors.

I got these for an uncle who was in a retirement facility and has now passed away. Their floors were mostly carpet & linoleum. They didn't harm the linoleum, BUT if the user needs a lot of support and puts extra pressure on the handles, I can see where you might be concerned. They do better and last longer than the tennis ball scenarios, and for sure are a lot more stable than other options. THey are relative cheep, you might just have to try them and if they scratch stop. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Foot soaks are wonderful. The pours on your feet can release a multitude of toxins. Most of us in houses don't want it draining into our septic systems either. I use the foot soaks. Enjoy!!!
