I have wood floors and low pile oriental rugs, will it go onto both or just one or the other based on the sensors?

Oh. The reason it gets stuck is cause of the brush on its side. I bet if u removed that with a screwdriver. The issue would go away.

Same here. Wood and I have oriental rugs too. Depending on the size of the rug it may get stuck. On one of my smaller rugs this happens. On a yet smaller rug but sturdy one it hops on and off no problem. On a large rug I have in the dining room it sometimes hops on and sometimes it just moves along the edge. Bottom line is you have to monitor it. Or roll up the rug.

Yes it has to contact the two metal sensors, so what you do is have the sensors almost touching the ground .

Yes. You will choose where you want the motion sensors. So definitely for dogs... Cats may trigger the sensors if they climb up high.

Mine works well on low pile carpet, wood floors, porcelain and Mexican tile.

I use it on both. There is no switch to change from floors to carpet, but it works equally well on both. Hope this helps...

I just tried the sensor on our berber carpet and it will not pick up the floor joists which are also covered by 5/8" plywood.

You are better off replacing both and this kit will do it. I had the same issue in which I only needed one. But you are hard pressed to find just one sensor that will work. Save yourself the headache and use a kit.

Yes, I primarily have hardwood floors, but we have a number of large rugs and it doesn't have a problem moving to and from both (doesn't get stuck either.) I have also used it in a house with carpet and I have used it in a house with hardwoods. Hope this helps!

According to the unit directions it will and I think it will too. The sensor works with a 45 degree inclination down the floor in a 360 range. It works better in open spaces than the narrow ones.

Yes put the pile height on bare floor and the brush control on bare floor. The brush does not spin but the vac is still on.

I don't know as I haven't tried it on uneven floors. Depending on how uneven the floors are, my guess would be that it would take more than 1 pad to do it.

the sensor can be moved left and right, up and down. It will move about an inch either way. an inch seems to cover a pretty good area. mine is set to cover an area to the right were my walk is

as far as I know the wood cleaning floor pads work don't know about the other kind

Yes I use mine on all different floors you just have to make sure the setting on the front is right.

You may need to put a padding btw one side of the sensor to make it even. Both parts must be really close.

The pads do well on both. (I usually give my tile floors a good wipe on my hands and knees...but that's only in bathrooms.) The wood floor cleaner will work for both floor types. Don't use the tile cleaner on your wooden floor though. :-)

Yes, you can set it for bare floors or for carpet and also for low pile carpet, deep pile, smooth or curtains. What I like most about is is the maneuverability.
