Are the casters suitable for hardwood floors?

They are rounded plastic, as long as they don't get to full of dirt and grit they should be ok. it would roll very well on hard wood, but if you are worried a rug or mat underneath also works well.

I am using on linoleum and it is working perfectly so I would say absolutely on hardwood. I love this chair by the way!

The packaging was damaged on arrival. The casters are inferior, flimsy. Unpacking i saw a small gray plastic piece obviously broken from somewhere. Assembled i could not find where it might have come from, but once I sat in the chair I found out. It was the tiniest part of a caster, but crucial; the caster came off right away. The chair became unstable, and unusable. And I had paid the higher price to replace a chair which likewise had bad caster. Thus I most certainly do not recommend this product.

The table comes with adjustable feet not casters. If you can find casters that have the same studs as the adjustable feet then it would be an easy swap.

They are "good" on any surface I've needed to roll them over. The thing that makes them different from other casters is that they truly do not make any mark on hardwood floors.

The casters would have to be very heavy duty because this is a solid piece of furniture. I don't think I would.

The legs are not particularly thick and couldn't accommodate heavy casters, not sure of the dimensions. However, if your floor is wooden, small furniture slides should work. It's not a heavy unit, though quite stable.

No, you'll want to purchase different casters that are softer for wood floors.

I use my chair with these casters without any problems on a plastic desk pad and occasionally on a level loop carpet. I do not know how they would work on a 1/2" pile carpet.

Gilmore & Paul covered this well. I would add that the casters are really only suitable for modest duty cycle unless you are on tile or wood floor.

The legs have metal or plastic caps on the bottom - it slides around quite easily already. But if you really wanted casters, I'm sure you could add them if you drilled the holes first!

I'm sorry but I never had to, they were perfect out of the box for our waiting room. Going on 3 years now and they are still going strong. Hope that helps but we never added casters.

Casters are removable but I would still recommend some type of foot or cap on the ends of the legs because they are basically pipes and would probably damage most kinds of flooring if left uncovered.

I asked my husband just to be sure and we agree you could add casters. But a rough measure reads 7/8ths of an inch. a little smaller would fit if you can find the size. Hope that helped.

I have tile floors, so I decided to wait. It slides easily enough without casters. But if you choose to have then, look on the Powell kitchen website and they sell them separately.

I bought these to use on hardwood floors. I think they would work very well on ceramic tile floors.

No, the casters will not scrape hard wood floors. I love it I use it all the time.

Yes. The size I have has plastic casters about 1" wide. I've had these since last spring. So far, almost no signs of wear.
