Can this cooler be placed on a hardwood floor?

Yes I have it on tile. It has rubber "feet" on the bottom the only requirement is that it sit level. The pump will not work correctly and it will be loud if not level.

There is a smooth surface that I believe would be safe for hardwood floors... however if it were me placing this bed on a hardwood floor I would glue felt squares to that surface for even more protection.

I have not used on hardwood floor. I would try in a corner that does not show...to test.

No. We have not experienced that problem and ours are placed on a hardwood floor

It might. As you can see on the picture the base is hard plastic so there is a small chance that it will slip. I can't say for sure because I used it on carpet.Personally I don't think it will slip on hardwood floor because the steps have some weight to itVbut as I said I can't say for sure.Hope this helps.

The feet are removable, but I'm not sure the unit would work as well. The cooler needs to be level to operate properly, and it requires air flow around it to maintain proper cooling.

You could but the floor should be buffed or something so that it was not slippery. It would improve the look of the wood, absolutelybut I think there are better products for the floor.

I have not used it on a floor , you might want to contact a wood floor installer with this question , just to be on the safe side.

I agree with Scott - it would not be a good idea to use this mat on a hardwood floor.

If it's on carpet it's probably ok but on hardwood it can easily slide. Also the back is unfinished unpainted particle board so it might not look great exposed.

I use mine on carpet and it slips a little. Im 90% sure it would slip some on hardwood.

Yes it can, make sure that your cooler is designed to convert to heat mode or else you will damage the cooling unit and fan.

My grandson plays with it on vinyl and carpet floors. so it should run on hardwood.

Hardwood flooring is not suitable for below grade (basement) application. So if the hardwood is being installed above grade, over an existing plywood subfloor, then nail or glue it down. No moisture barrier is required. This product provides both thermal insulating and moisture barrier protection for use over basement or concrete slab floors. It would be possible to install a floating hardwood floor where the joints are glues together over this underlayment - but only on a slab foundation at grade level. For an above grade floor installation, you would want the heat from the home to transfer through the floor level in the home and not insulate against it.

I haven't used it on hardwood but on cement and indoors on tile. It works extremely well and just glides. I'm sure it would be the same on hardwood floors. Though, I wouldn't know for since since I do not have hardwood floors.

I have it on hardwood and it seems stable enough. The bottom is wider than the top. However, if I had small children, I would probably mount it anyway.

No, I have hardwood floors and I put a thick blanket between it and the floor. I would lay it directly on carpet though.
