Do the wheels leave scratches on hardwood floors?

I have not found any! My kids love to "lock the wheels" for fun, and then my son pushes it around the house as a walker, yet, no marks yet. I would say it probably depends on your wood though- if you have a soft wood- it may- as anything will. However- pine- no problems at our house! Good luck!

I have been using the chair for about six months and we have hard wood floors and I have not had any scratches from the chair.

actually if you dont keep the small wheels clean and they stop rolling it will scuff the floor. as long as you keep the small wheels free of debris you will be fine

Realized when I answered your question that I didn't not mention the wheels. If you are going to buy this and put on a wood floor, the wheels should be upgraded to rubber wheels so they don't scratch the floor. We got nice ones at Rockler.com

The wheels are made of hard plastic and would not scratch hardwood. My grandkids use this train on hardwood with no ill effects to the wood.

I have carpet, but this thing isn't really heavy enough to scratch it. The wheels are fine, the problem is that the cradle part doesn't stay up like it's supposed to, so it drags over the wheels, which may scratch the floors? Just be careful to try and keep the cradle part up and you'll be fine.

These wheels are hard rubber but I haven't had any problems with our hardwood floors.

I have hardwood floors all over the house and haven't noticed any scratching.

There are no rough edges so it should not scratch your floors. I have hardwoods and it moves around fine. Also it is very light and can be lifted easily although sturdy enough that it won't tip over at all. Highly recommended.

This is half on hardwood floor and half on carpet in our house and has been since Christmas . Thus far, I haven't noticed any scratches, although it does get pushed around a bit.

Danger Danger! The upright vacuum wheels scratched my hardwood floors. I repeat the wheels on the upright vacuum scratched my hand scraped hardwood floors. I would not EVER use this vacuum on hardwood floors of any kind.

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

Yes the power wheel drives excellent on hardwood floor, but it does scratch the floor pretty harshly! My daughter drives her on ours and it has scratched pretty harshly in a few spots.

It doesn't have a very soft floor end, and the wheels are plastic, but it also isn't very heavy. We didn't have any problem with scratched floors, but our wood floors had a pretty scratch-resistant finish. It could cause slight scratches on softer finishes.

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

Not that I have seen. I've been using this vacuum for a few months now, even my seven year old daughter vacuums with it and I haven't seen any scratches. My husband is super anal about our hardwood floors and if there was even a chance that it would scratch the floor he wouldn't allow it to be used. This is a great vacuum, I highly recommend it, especially if you have pets great on hair!

The wheels are a hard rubber. I rolled around on my driveway, garage floor and my tile kitchen floor. The wheels did not leave marks anywhere. I would guess it would be okay on wood floors as well. Hope that helps.

None, but it has not scratched our floors...we've used them for Poms to Bernese Mtn dog whom moved it all over the place. The painted coating makes the surface area very smoothe. They are heavy duty but they do not weight alot - I push them out of place, mop the floor and then push them back and I have not made scratches on the floor doing that either. I suppose if the wood is a soft wood like Maple it may be a problem I'm not sure.
