Will the metal legs scratch an engineered wood floor?

No they won't but the screws fall out of seat frequently. They are beautiful to look at but wobbly and weak.

there is a rubber stopper on the bottem of each leg. the piece if built correctly is durable and steady. I see the previous answer to your question and it sounds like they put them together wrong. I could have ordered this stool out of hillsdale catalog from a "dealer" for 355.00. very nice bar stools.

I also have hardwood floors, and it hasn't scratched them from what I can tell (my dog mainly plays on the carpet with it). It is designed to roll and doesn't have much of an area that would scratch floors.

As long as yours comes with the rollerblade poly wheels it won't scratch your floors. If you get the hard wheels, they will scratch your floors.

Yes, there is a plastic type edging around the circumference of the metal base. Ours sit on wooden floors and we have had no problem with scratches. Be advised that we do our best not to slide the stools when we move them.

I didn't have any trouble with this machine scratching up any type of floor. I used it on tile and laminate. My laminate is very scratch prone and had no issues!

It has wooden rollers (wheels). I have it on carpet so can't tell you if it would scratch.

Since I don't have marble floors, I can't say if it will scratch or not. There's a strip on the pad for getting tough dirt off, but it isn't gritty really. My dogs have done more damage to my cheapy wood floors over the years than this pad could.

The base is metal with a hard plastic encircling the base and separating the metal from the floor. It's hard plastic, not rubber like, so it might scratch a hard wood floor.

If I remember correctly, the wheels had to go on after it was put together. Which would mean that you could leave them off. You might want to get some sort of rubber tip for each leg so the metal doesn't scratch the floor.

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

Sure, but the metal is quite rough on the bottom and it would no doubt scratch your floors! Plus you would lose the benefits of being MOBILE which is so much healthier, practical (and FUN!! - must see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yReDHvy9dWUThe castors don't roll very well, though. I ordered top-of-the-line ones (size M10 x 15mm) with a rubber tread for my linoleum floor and I'm lovin' it!

Yes, I believe they did scratch our wood floor when the chairs slid in and out from our island. However, I placed (inexpensive) pads on the bottom of all the legs/feet & that took care of it. I still love these chairs- although my kids are constantly swiveling back n forth when sitting in them, which nicks up the wood on the sides of the chairs (from our granite counter top). Wished I would have got non-swivel/stationary chairs.

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.

It is metal on the bottom, so it would scratch your desk moving it back and forth. I have a nice computer desk I don't want scratched. I glued felt strips to both sides of the metal base supports on the bottom. That will do the trick. This unit is nice sturdy metal and quality construction.

MY son uses it in our house on the wood floor and it doesn't scratch them. Of course he only weighs about 40 pounds.

None, but it has not scratched our floors...we've used them for Poms to Bernese Mtn dog whom moved it all over the place. The painted coating makes the surface area very smoothe. They are heavy duty but they do not weight alot - I push them out of place, mop the floor and then push them back and I have not made scratches on the floor doing that either. I suppose if the wood is a soft wood like Maple it may be a problem I'm not sure.

there are rubber tips on the bottom of feet not heavy duty like a cane or walking stick but will definitely keep your floors from getting scratched I am very happy with the step stool
