Will these damage car floors or other surfaces that might be indoors?

Carpeted car floors are not damaged, not advisable to wear indoors anywhere. Kept these on one pair of shoes, an easy to slip off shoe and switch into a mule or whatever to walk about a store, home. One thing to keep in mind, rinse them at end of day to remove salts or they will rot before the season is done. The ramp/stairs at our local post office has small sharp snow remover spikes so as you climb up the snow is supposedly removed. Walk gingerly on those as they too will wear out the cables. After my first winter using these and losing two pair to damage, this year I took better care by rinsing at days end, avoid sharp snow steps at PO and they look terrific.

Yes, we would never even wear them on our deck. It's best to wait till you are on ice covered ground to wear them.

Most stores where we live ask that you remove them before coming in. I would not wear them on home surfaces either, unless it is concrete. I am not sure about car floors, as we have mats on all of our cars and it has not been a problem.

yes it will damage floors unless they are somehow scratch resistant, or carpeted

Car floors? Probably not, though perhaps better not to drive with them on. Interior floors (e.g., wood, linoleum) seems like a bad idea. When ice season ends, spray some cooking oil or WD40 onto them and store in a plastic food storage bag until Fall. Otherwise the braided wire that holds them together can corrode. Mine have lasted several years of daily winter use; a good product.

Would not wear on lino or wood floors, they would tear them up. They are designed for frozen surfaces with the chain and diamond shaped links to fracture the surface and get a grip!

The adhesive strips are separate from the cord cover, so you could use it without adhesives at all. No it won't hurt your floor.

would not recommend you use them that way but I know there are few options for in floor plugs. Remember your carpet is stretched when it is installed. Cutting a large hole could cause problems. Talk to your carpet installer and if you do use themonly use them in a non foot traffic area. You could only put them under a table, chair, sofa ect.These are not for carpeted areas (unless the carpet is very thin) but the would be safer than cutting the carpet and pulling an electrical cord thru the hole

I would say that they're and indoor toy. Not that you can't use them outside, but they could get rain splattered and muddy and a real pain to clean. I imagine their finish would suffer too.

No. They are attached to the pedals and would interfere with normal driving

I would not use indoors. There are many insecticides recommended for indoor use so I would not take the risk.

Not that I have seen. However, it's great at cleaning them. I've also noticed that if you naliom floors if left too long it will damage them. So be careful, other than that I enjoy mine.

I am not sure if it would scratch wood floors, but I love the car. The steering wheel came off shortly after purchase, so be sure not to lift it by the steering wheel. I would think you would not use it much indoors. Great for outdoors and trips out!

Yes most likely. They are not heavy squares so any heavy movement, especially on carpet, will likely move them.

I wouldn't use this on hardwood floors. It could make the surface slippery and dangerous.

You would have to be crazy to wear these indoors. (a) they are designed to cut through ice, and will certainly damage most floors; and (b) they will be dangerously slippery.

I haven't had that experience with them. I've walked on lots of concrete surfaces with no damage done at all. Hope that helps!

Yes. We use them on hard wood floors as well as tile floors in the utility room. The weight of the items will usually stop all movement and I mean all movement.

You can drive over them without damage initially. I would not recommend it on a constant basis. These are plastic and would crack and be destroyed if runover repeatedly.

Not really. These are meant for temporary use to move furniture. They're not designed to protect carpet. These would be noticeable and ugly because they're too big. They have curved white plastic bottoms about 1/4" thick with about 3/8" black foam glued on top. The furniture sits in the foam to keep it from moving on the pads.

These are designed for household item on interior floors....therefore we would not know. Thank you

Has not damaged mine. The wheels are a soft rubber and I would find it hard to image that they would scratch or mar a wood floor.
