Does this unit work on engineered flooring?

Typically with an engineered product you're looking to use an 18 gauge staple. This gun only accepts 15.5-16 gauge staples, so for nail-down engineered you're going to need something else.

I'm pretty sure it does and it comes with different size cleats for different size flooring, but I am no expert you might want to contact Freeman to be absolutely positive.

Yes it can but is not recommended for floors with worn finish, bare wood or wood floors with separated joints.

Yes! I bought it to install oriented strand bamboo flooring which to my knowledge is about the hardest flooring there is and it worked very well with it. It did not miss a beat. I would not hesitate to recommend it for just about any type of hardwood floor.

I have the same question. I have read the reviews and a couple say they have used it on laminate floors. I would like to know for sure before purchasing one. Does anyone know for sure?

I would not use this unit on un-sealed wood floors. I would not use it on wood floors of any kind because of the risk of water going through the getting under the wood.

No, but I do have an answer for you. I love my little Bissell, but I also have this, Hoover FloorMate SpinScrub with Bonus Hard Floor Wipes, FH40010B, and use it for my tile and wood floorings. It works well, and the floor is 99% dry when finished.

Yes it works on carpeted floor. Just be aware it will leave a weighted ring on the carpet just like any other piece of furniture. Proceed with caution based or the duration of the amount of time you keep it stored in one place on the carpet.

I don't know, but maybe. It has a seam that makes contact with the floor. I have it on carpet, so cannot say for sure.

Hmmmmm. I haven't used it yet as am planning to replace some flooring soon. sorry...... I would call Skil's customer service for a good answer to that question.

Yes. As long as you pour leveling cement on top of the heating element to create a smooth surface upon which to install your laminate flooring. However I would recommend installing a tile floor over it instead.

Yes it works on all hard floors that are finished. You just need to use the right solution for your floor type.

The short answer is yes, but very slowly not very effectually. The unit is tiny and not powered like a dust extractor or ventilator for a workshop. The only proper way way to deal with floor refinishing is adequate ventilation. Also, using the ozone generator with VOCs is a very bad idea.

It does work well and yes, I have used it on laminate flooring in my kitchen and it worked well there too.

Yes. I don't have laminated floors, but can not see any reason why it would not work. I would e-mail or check with a dealer to be absolutely sure.

Yes, have use on laminate flooring. It works perfectly. I've been using this unit for the past 2 years in 2 houses and it's still working perfectly.

I really have no idea. It works great on everything I have found but a concrete floor may become to slippery perhaps. I myself would like an answer to that myself. good luck

Actually it does... It is a bit different design - allows you to do 3/4" and 1/2" thick planks.BTW, the unit I got works perfect! I just installed 140+ SF of oak T&G; flooring with no hiccups and no nail hanging. There is couple of things you need to remember; this is not a really heavy duty commercial unit, droplet of light oil every time you put a new nail strip and most important - hit the striker pretty resolute EVERY TIME!Thanks, Mario
