Will the base scratch wood floors or is there some way to protect wood floors from getting scratched/worn by the base?

I use them on a tiled floor, but you can glue some felt on so it wont hurt wood floor.

It is possible to scratch hardwood floors. I suggest you put children's rubber play mats down to get the most fun out of this toy indoors if you don't have carpet. You can find them right here at Amazon for a great price.

The bottom of the stand is very smooth rounded wood. It won't scratch a hard wood floor unless you use it to hold a refrigerator.

we have old school parkay wood floors and very heavy pot/plants and they ahve not left a mark on them, but I think it might depend on the type of wood you have. There are small rubber 'feet' at the ends of each leg, that I think helps as well.

We have wood floors also. Works great. Wheels have a rubber strip around them to prevent scratching the floor.

The wood is already finished, if you just wipe it down (pledge wipes or something similar) and then assemble it will be fine. If you have wood floors you might think about round felt foot sliders for the bottom so you won't scratch the floor (available at any hardware store).

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

We have the table I doors and my 3 year old drags it around. We have never had issues with it scratching our hardwood floors.

No - I use it on my wood floors and it does not scratch them..the plastic "wheels" seem to go over the floors just fine.

Sorry for the delay in answering your question. There does not seem to be anything on the bottom rail for floor protection. I have my gate on a tile floor and after having put it up and down many times, have not noticed any scratching. Hope this helps.

Yes, it can scratch. Its not an issue with the construction, its the finish - solid wood with that finish would likely scratch as well.

The corners are roughand yes, they will scratch hardwood floors if you do not have a mat or something similar under it. The rest if the frame is smooth.

It will not scratch floors. It has a wobble bottom, which is plastic, and like a stability ball, makes you sit straight. It's great - I got the idea from a friend of mine who is a vocal coach, and conductor. He has one at home, and one in the pit of a theater where he plays and conducts.

Work great, No the material that it is constructed from is "fluffed" to resist scratching your wood floor "Varnish" although... the dirt on the floor you are pushing around to gather IS scratching and after time will become more evident, refinish it in about ten years to keep it from "Yellowing" and generations of your family can enjoy them.

I also have wood floors and have not seen any scratches from cleaning with it. I love mine.

Mine has little plastic ends on the bottom of the legs. I have hardwood floors and they do not scratch.

Not really. It can still be scratched depending on what scratches it but it you drop it on the floor and rub it, it wont scratch, it you understand what I'm saying
