Will these scratch or scuff the plastic covers that they rest against? I'm assuming that they will, anyone tried a felt backing?

I cannot see this scratching the covers on either side, due to the fact they are made with a soft material, backed by what appears to be heavy duty cardboard.

Yes they will scratch, but i have read where others have used backing to minimize it, felt might work I've read that some have used like a car cameo like used for drying cars to good effect.

I don't think these would be comfortable at all. I highly recommend having something cover that hard plastic.

No. These are inexpensive but do not scratch easy. If damage yet buy new one

I have 4 perm mounted to stained concrete at a bar.. so they of course do not scratch. I do have 4 more free standing that can be moved around. And they get moved by the pool table all the time. So far they have not damaged the floors. But they are great bar stools!

The back side is felt so not from sliding around but the corners will scratch if you don't take care setting them down.

No, they will scratch the finish. I use melamine spoons and flat turners found in most kitchen stores.

I haven't had any problems with them thus far. The black plastic on the front isn't really like "rubbery" material that could scuff but more of a hard plastic and shouldn't scuff.

I've used my sleeve daily since early August and I have no issue with the rippers. They're sturdy and I don't anticipate them breaking anytime soon. I haven't experienced the rippers scratching my laptop; you can fold them back as you insert your laptop to further prevent them from scratching it... but I haven't had to do this and I see no scratches. I hope this helped!

The parts that support the bottom of the computer are actually plastic, so I don't think they will scratch it; at least they haven't scratched my computer. Hope this helps.

they have a hard plastic with a hole to add rollers....I set mine on Formica in our pop up and it hasn't scratched the surface

They will probably scratch an engineered wood floor, but most stools will. You can get felt pads from Home Depot, etc. that stick on the bottom. You just have to clean off the dust that gathers around them as you move the stools around.

I used them on laminate floors which are very slick. These are very good for preventing movement on any surface. Therefore unlikely to cause any scratches on any floor. They are nearly one half inch in thickness and very robust. A very heavy weight will compress them some what, but I believe it would be impossible to compress them so much as to ding any floor. Certainly they would be much better than the bed alone. I cut one of them hem in quarters to put under the legs of an easy chair.

I have not noticed any scratches. I have a hatch back and the metal hooks fit snuggly to the top and bottom of the hatch.

Considering I just put one on my custom built maple desks I certainly hope not! They are smooth flat plastic so they don't seem likely to scratch anything, unless there is something under them. I have them protecting the kids' surfaces because I didn't want to buy leather pads for them. It does collect light, however, hiding what beautiful wood may be under them (kind of like fiber optic). Great protection, but I you want something 'classy' find a leather pad.

have not tryed them outside but i would save doubtful - pretty sure any dampness would ruin them quickly. they are felt after all

I have not but I think they'll work if the concrete is really polished and smooth. And rough would probably ruin the felt lining.

They roll very nice on hard wood floors. If your floors are very nice I would not use it on a hard wood floor without some kind of protection. Over time I think they would scratch.
