Do you have to buy a rug or could you simply put it on a concrete floor and in effect use it as your flooring?

I would say you need a rug because of how the heater is designed. The wire can be seen in the material and it is very thin. Not good for flooring.

The wires are tiny and really weak. Our Rug Buudy stopped working for good after 1 year even under a nice thick rug, so there's no way it would last long with people walking directly on it... Personally, we wouldn't spend money on this product again - they don't last long and the warranty is non-existant in truth... We'd say buy something of higher quality or you'll waste your money - hope that helps you make the right decision!

You can just put it on the grass, but without a floor it would be a pain getting things in and out smoothly.

No concrete isn't necessary, especially if you think you might want to move it anytime. It has pretty long spikes that hold it in the ground. Mine has been in for a few months and so far so good, but I did move it once, so spikes better than concrete for that

I wouldn't, after a few times of getting wet it will tear. It is paper it's not meant to be stepped on. I used some rubber (yes rubber) flooring that looked like wood from home Depot. It is really easy to use. You can score it with an exacto knife and then bend it until it breaks. Just clean the floor before you set it. no glue, padding, adhesive or anything required. Very durable And not terribly expensive. Hope this helps

No. this is really a flimsy item. You can even make this yourself. I was not satisfied even for the floor use.

You can use the machine as is on tiles and linoleum. I use it on my kitchen floor, and it works like a charm.

Personally, I'd put another mat or a rug beneath it. It has a decent pad if it's placed on a carpeted surface, but I'd be a little nervous putting it on a hardwood floor. Otherwise, I loved this play yard. :)

I keep it on a tile floor. I think there would be safety issues in putting it on carpet. It is small and could tip over.

You can but you are better off getting the bigger mats, I got the 15 square feet.... Only problem is, it takes a long time to heat up the floor....

Just threw it on the floor to see ... in my opinion, it looks like a throw on the floor. It wont stay flat unless no one walks on it. Perhaps if you put a different backing on it suitable for rugs?

It could be used on a concrete patio. I use it on my driveway all the time. If your weather isn't too severe it could be left outside like any indoor outdoor carpet would be.

It does NOT have a floor. You must build one yourself. A couple 2 X 4's and a half piece of plywood can do the trick.

No, you will need 3/4 inch plywood as flooring. It doesn't come with a floor. It's sturdy enough but u need a floor.

I would to have a more solid floor. I did not have to do that with mine because I already had slab/cement flooring.

It can be used indoors, I am not sure about the floors, since I have carpeting.

I bought the mat along with the treadmill, but I haven't used it. I don't believe it is necessary on carpet floors.

The feet are made of either rubber or a fairly rubbery plastic. I think you would be able to put it directly on a hardwood floor without using a mat.
