Has anyone tried using this on concrete basement floors with any luck?

I have used it on my slate tile floors in the family room and it worked great. In Florida, usually the first floors are concrete slabs, so odors would naturally penetrate to the concrete. I did let the product stay on for an hour to seep into the tiles. Odor gone. hooray

I have, but it makes the floor very slick unless you use it sparingly and rub it in well.

I have not done this, but from my experience using it for wood, if the underlying surface is flat and smooth, then it should work.If the concrete has a rough or dimpled surface, then it will not work well at all. I would use a wire brush in that case.

We only use it in the basement and have never tried for the whole house. It is a full basement, thought and it does a great job.

It works pretty well!!!I have it setup in the basement and it works even from the second floor.

It may work better on concrete rather than wood - which is what I had. However the risk you are running is that you spend a lot of money and time (as I did) only to have to rip the whole stuff up again. I'd try another product if I were you.

I am not sure since I have never used either of those mats. I only use this in the basement on carpet so it is enough cushion for me. I doubt it would be that good on concrete though.

Just received mine, the instructions state: For use on concrete, stone or tile floors. (Do not use on carpeting or wood floors.)

I would do a couple Google searches just to make sure, but I would imagine it should be just fine over concrete. I used it over self-leveling concrete which was over a plywood base and then put the flooring directly over it and it seems to be working great. It is a combination sound/vibration/moisture/ventilation pad.

It should. If you have a leak under the concrete the area should be hotter than other areas of the basement floor. I like how this works and is one of the easier ones to use and well worth the money if you have other uses for it. I found a lot of cold spots and air lease in a house I am working on using the instrument.

I did not use this on a laminated floor... i used it on my concrete garage floor....and it worked great...looks like a showroom floor now!

My experience is with a unfinished concrete basement floor that was not level, and it drained out about .05 inches, then I just needed a dry mop. It was great and fast.

I do not have concrete floors, but I have used on tile with grout and it did work, for under baseboards I applied more than once.

No, I run mine in a basement directly on the concrete usually 4 miles a day and it works great.

Yes, it works great on concrete. A contractor friend told me about it and I have used it ever since.

I know it handles wood walls very easily and over a significant distance with plenty of volume. Most basements have wood floor ceilings, right? I have no experience to verify for sure but I think it will work well.

I use it on a cement floor and it works very well - does Oreck have a hotline of some kind - they may be the best ones to answer your question!
