Any scratches on hardwood? Has anyone had any scratching?

When i viewed the vac at the store, the display model was put together without the beater (brush) bar, so I intend to leave it off too. It worked fine without it. I am using it for hardwood floors also.

I've had my set for a couple of months and I haven't noticed any scratches as of yet. They still look great. Don't know if this will help you in your decision making process.

We have tile and laminate no scratching but don't know about wood. I will tell you ours has a clog that 2 shops have been unable to get out because it is so hard to access.

I have been using the chair for about six months and we have hard wood floors and I have not had any scratches from the chair.

We mostly use ours on carpets and no issues there. If hardwood floors have sand/dirt and the board is rubbed over it, the chances are good it will scratch.

No, but the wooden tracks are definitely a useful accessory. My nephew also rolls them over their cocktail table & I never see scratches.

Hi Ben, Which Dyson do you have? Do all dysons scratch the hardwood floors? We have the asthma allergy one and it did scratch our brand new floors. We are looking for a Dyson that will not scratch the floor- does anyone have suggestions?Tara

I also have hardwood floors and haven't noticed any scuff marks or damage to my floor as a result of using the mat. My largest complaint is actually in regards to the rubber smell. It does not go away. Ever. It's been three months and my bedroom still smells like a gym....

Going on two years with our sink and the scratches are minor. Not what I'd consider an issue. We really love the sink. We do use the grates in the bottom most of the time.

Yep. I hate to add to the chorus, but it scratched my brazilian cherry hardwoods. Just like the above post - if a hard particle gets dragged, it scratches the floor - I sometimes don't notice until a few scratches are made. I'm not happy - I paid a lot of money for the vacuum AND the floors! Does Dyson have anything to say about this problem?

This was one of my main concerns as well, and I am happy to report that we have not had any damage to the finish, or wood itself. The wheels are made of smooth plastic (front) and rubber (back), and have not scratched our floors... Our floors are made of hard wood; hand scraped dark oak.

The wheels are plastic. I have area rugs over my hardwood floor with the exception of my foyer and bedrooms. I have not noticed any scratching.

I have been using them directly on my wood floor and had no trace and no sign of damage on my floor. Just wanted to share this experience.

Our home has hardwood floors and I haven't noticed any scratches occurring from these feet. They are hard plastic, so rough or extended play on the floors could foreseeably result in a scratch. Ideally, these work better on carpet or a rug, since they could slide around more on the hard floor.

Not that I can tell. I use this vacuum cleaner on our hardwood floors weekly, and unless I am being blind, I don't think there are any scratches. Mind you, we have a big dog, and he is brutal on the floors, so maybe it is hard for me to tell. I still love this vacuum. It is of course not the most powerful one you will find, but for what I am asking it to do, it is great. It is lightweight, has no cord to hassle with, and is reasonably quiet. Two thumbs up from me!

The bottom is smooth finished wood. I can't see how it would scratch anything.
