I just purchased this Agility cleaner, and it clearly says "do NOT use on hard wood floors." It can be used on tile (I assume they mean ceramic tile, because they also state it can be used on vinyl flooring.)There is a separate cleaning liquid included for use on hard surface floors, but it does not say hard WOOD floors.

I do not have hardwood floors. It is a smaller vacuum that I keep upstairs for our loft bedroom and bath. It is very powerful for its size. It is mostly carpet up there and does a very good job. It also works well on the tile floor, so I would imagine it would be good on hardwood too. The attachments are handy. Hope this helps. I have been very happy with it.

I have hardwood floors as well. The brush actually flips the dirt up in the to vacuum part. Haven't had any problems at all. My floors are very dark, and show any scuff or mark, and I've not seen one from this little sweeper.

Well, It have not used it in a situation like that, but do think it is very flexible and able to get under furniture very easily. It is the best vaccum I have bought. I got both the carpet and hard floor tools.

Yes, it works fine on hardwood floors. I had to be careful around smaller rugs that weren't secure as the vac wanted to inhale them.

I do not have hard wood floors. Vacuum does have push button (lighted) height adjustments right on the handle just below the start button. Works great on linoleum floors...just push the up/down button and roll on.Hope this helps.

Ron: Sorry it has taken me so long to reply, I did not use the Vac. caddy on the Vac. I made a special storage unit to put in a closet because I purchased additional attachments. I took a photo of my setup but did not know how to send it, sorry I was of so little help........Ray

we use it exclusively for hard wood floors, just as Rosemary says in her comment, you have to do a quick press... if it doesnt work, try it a few times. I always turn it on and click fast them vacuum our hard wood floors...no need to hold down anything

I don't have hard wood floors but I do have ceramic tile floors and on the lowest setting it works fairly well, not as good as sweeping but it does pick up the dust balls and dirt. The corners are an issue so I will use the crevice tool. The only thing I might be concerned about using this on hard wood floors or vinyl tiles would be the brush might be too rough for it but I do not know for certain.

This vacuum is best on hard floors, and just ok on carpet. I use it on vinyl, wood and low pile floor carpets. It will do well with pet hair.

It's just OK on hard floors, but it's tricky. We use this on vinyl to pick up cheerios and similar debris. The brushes don't seem to touch the floor unless you push down on it a bit, though it might get better with age as the springs loosen. It also doesn't work very well for cleaning up litter our cats track onto the hardwood.In short, get yourself a little upright dustpan and broom set instead. We use it far more often, as it's more reliable. For thorough cleaning, we use a vacuum designed for hard-floors.(I'm sure the OP has already made his decision, but thought I'd answer for future readers.)

No it does not work on carpeted floors especially and I feel sorry for the people that buy this thinking it does. It also does not work on wood or tile floors either unfortunately.

NO. This is the heaviest vac I've ever owned. The very first 2 things I noticed on its first us was 1) had no light (my last 2 had lights). 2) how heavy it was to push/maneuver around. Already going to purchase another vac

Our Dyson scratched our hardwood floors. It's too low to the ground, so anything hard & tiny will get pushed & ground into the floor by the vacuum.

Having sold the vacuums previously, I can say that the hard floor cleaner does work on wood flooring, but I don't have hardwood floors to have tested it. I don't know if I have the sander attachment, though; I never used that part so I'm not sure.

I definitely don't recommend it! We have wood floors and carpeting, 2 sets of stairs, and 2 cats. The brush roller on carpet is TERRIBLE. It doesn't pick anything up and hair gets tangled in it constantly. I actually have to take the roller apart after (and sometimes during) each use to clean the hair out of it. As for the hard floor attachment, it pretty much just pushes stuff around and hardly gets anything. It's a shame because I can tell the suction on the actual vacuum is great. The real problem is the attachments. They're just not designed well. I wish I had never bought this vacuum. If you still want it though I'll sell you mine for really cheap!

mine has failed on carpet - never tried on hard floors. My cat wants it on 24/7 she really loves it - unfortunately it does not hold up for very long - I just threw away the third one. I have spent 60.00 on three of these and I cannot tell you how much I have spent on batteries. I told my cat today, its broke again and we are not getting anymore.
