I wouldn't recommend using it on hardwood floors without a big mat ...

I've been sleeping on this bed everyday since jan. 2014....it's now march 2015. The quality of this airbed far exceeds it's price point.
I wouldn't recommend using it on hardwood floors without a big mat or comforter underneath it though. I've had terrible experiences in the past with airbeds losing air without having any holes or tears. The research I did concluded that the air loss was do to the temperature of the floor and the air in the bed....I don't know if it's all true, but mine has a buffer between it and the floor. Great buy.

I'm pretty forgiving when it comes to products and how they hold up based on how I use the products and what they were designed for.  Maybe this product was designed to work on a carpet or a wood floor in the 'living' area of a home.  I have it underneath our elliptical in the basement to keep the elliptical from moving across the cement floor.  After about 9 months, I needed to move it over a few feet...alas, the pressure points (6 of them) stuck to the floor and it was impossible to pull up the mat without tearing it and leaving (at best) part of the mat on the floor.  So...I scraped up the impacted rubber and the mat still does what I wanted it to do but...it is unlikely we will be able to move it again.

be careful which floors you use it on. It ruined the floors in our apartment by loosening the glue causing the tiles to peel up in a couple spots. This was using it as directed and not leaving it on too long. I should've looked into it more before I used it, because they do exercise caution on certain floortypes but I live in an apartment.. I'm not a homeowner who has had to consider flooring types - I don't know the difference between vinyl, linoleum, etc. I just know it's not carpet or hardwood. It's the manmade fake tiling, whatever you call that. If you have that, don't use this.

That's my fault however for being ignorant about flooring. The reason I gave it lesser stars is because I don't feel like it cleaned well. The heat definitely sanitizes but I don't feel like it picked up dirt like magic, the way a lot of reviewers said. It did okay, better than a Swiffer mop but not as good as my Twist & Shout mop. I may keep it for someday when I have a real tile bathroom floor - the extra sanitization power is worth something.

The mat slips on the wood floor. I have to use double sided sticky to keep it in one place to avoid any slip and fall type accidents. Also, seems to be pricey. I found much larger one in local Sams after ordering this for 2/3 of it's price. Unsure that what quality difference this will make.

I made the mistake of thinking this would work on hardwood floors.  During spin cycle the entire tray slides....I can put a rug underneath it, however the drain plug was missing, can you send replacement plug

You do NOT want to purchase this mat if you have any traffic at all on it. You can stand comfortably on them, but do not walk around a kitchen with them on the floor!! Mine are two years old and after one year, they turned up at the edges, making them unsafe. The time I most need these are when we have family, and I'm in the kitchen a lot. Unfortunately, that's when I have to take them up because I cannot risk people tripping on them.  For the expense, these are not worth the risk.  Buy padded shoe inserts instead. They'll last longer and be safer!!

I ordered four of these after we had hardwood floors put in our office. Since it was advertised for hardwood, I guess I assumed that it would sit on hardwood without slipping. Unfortunately, it is just a plain, frosted/clear hard plastic mat. There is nothing on the bottom to keep it from slipping and being made of clear plastic, any non-slip stuff I put under showed through and it made high spots. I do not recommended for hardwood floors.

I read all the reviews before I tried this product. I am very concerned and picky shopper. I thought I would give this a try. I believe the key to this product is the flooring you are using this on. The foot on the lock works excellent on tile or wood. I would not recommend this product on carpet.

One key point to remember...the farther away you have the base from the door the less strength it has. Try to get it between 70 degrees and 80 degrees. I was able to knock it out of place at 50 and 60. I normally do not worry about safety; however, I am a heavy sleeper. I can fend for myself but I have to hear it first. Let me know if you found this helpful!

I just got my DDR mat and am using it on a rug.  That seems to be a pretty bad idea, because the pad bunches and moves around.  It's recognizing my steps okay with the game I purchased to use with it (Walk it Out), but every so often I have to pause the game and put the mat back into its appropriate position, which is frustrating.  Another reviewer said he/she places cardboard between his/her rug and mat with better results, so I may try that, too.  This would be a much nicer product if it stayed in place.

works great- two caveats- on hardwood floors you are SOL, have to buy a rug to put under it, and the material felt stuff on the stairs collects dust bunnies, don't put it on

I have a medium pile carpet and wouldn't even think of rolling a chair on this mat.  Just stepping on it raised the edges an inch or so off the carpet.  I packaged it back up and sent it back before I broke it.  The mat was also suppose to have a lip and it didn't, it just had the blunt edge.  I wonder if I was sent the wrong one.

Mat dos not have weight/floor grip. Gets dirty really easily, Threads unravel on the sides. Wouln't recommend.

It does not stay in place that well for me, but it does prevent more damaging of the floor. It looks like a standard mat.

This tool is great for hard floors but not for flat floors in general.  We have a rubber playmate for our toddler and this head is so loose that it won't stay flat on the mat, the bristles catch on the rubber and cause the head to flip up or down.  It's not a knock on the tool, it says it's for hard wood floors... just a warning for people who might buy it for berber carpets or anything that's not hard and relatively smooth.

it should mention that it requires skid proofing for hardwood floors.  It would be fine for a rug over a carpet but if you put it on your hardwood floors, it would give a new meaning to flying carpets!

this is a great mat, i use it on my hardwood floor & have no discomfort at all.  The cushioning is nice & thick. I like the shade of tomato red it comes in too.  I use it for ab work & when i do my jari love weight training videos. During the parts where she incorporates squats/lunges of the step.  i simply place this mat underneath the step to help muffle the sound. (actually it's not a step but a bosu. but that's not important) I just wish it was available in an extra wide size, i'd love to do my aerobics videos on the mat too. I'm sure it would help muffle the jumping sounds.  but alas it is too narrow to go forwards & backwards as well as side to side.

Not great if you have carpet, the mat bends easily, and the center colors are super small and easy to lose. We packed ours up and will take it out again once we have hardwood floors.
