Can you use this Hoky Rotor Brush Sweeper on laminate floors? Would the brush scratch the laminate?

Nanci, we have used our HOKY Rotor Brush Sweeper for years on all type of flooring. No issues.

I have hardwood floors as well, with scatter rugs. It works wonderfully on wood and tile, and Ive seen no evidence at all of scratching. Hope this helps!

It is perfect for laminate floors. It has no spinning roller so it goes not scratch flooring. That is why i bought it.

We use it on our wood floors and have not had any sratches at all. The brush is designed to be used on hard floors. I would imagine if something abrasive got stuck on the brush or roller it could scratch the floor, but we have not had any tangles in ours yet and we've been using it for about half a year. Also it has a cear top over the brush so if anything was stuck in there you would see it. Plus there is a button to turn the brush off if you want to. Has been a great vacuum, we love it.

I have laminate and tile floors as well as area rugs, and the Dyson DC39 Animal Canister works very well on all of my different floor surfaces. There is a button on the handle to turn off the power brush bar to prevent scratching of floors. Honestly, it works fine with the brush on or off.

That is why I got it. I have hardwood floors and the light microfiber "mops", "swishers" and other ones that have a liquid pump required a lot of effort and rubbing to get the smallest spots of dried dirt up. The Pullman had bristles if you are doing soap/water on a ceramic floor...no issues of scratching. If you do a hard wood floor, you place microfiber pads or clothe over the bristles to keep from scratching.

My floors are carpet, tile and vinyl but I doubt the wheels will scratch wood floors; they roll very smoothly. We bought one for our fifth wheel and liked it so much we bought a second one for home. It is a little difficult to run on a carpet but still does a nice job even with doggy hair. On the other flooring it is efficient, easy to use and very convenient; much more so than dragging out the heavy, large vacuum.

I see no reason why it would not work on laminate floors. We have wood floor and it works great on it.

This sweeper is harmless on wood floors. I use this sweeper on my parquet wood floor in my apartment living room with no issues. The firm bristles will pick up all hair types , as well as feathers, crumbs. The sweeper can also pick most powder type spills on carpets & floors with little effort .

Mine didn't last long enough to find out. It only lasted one cleaning and it was my kitchen floor. I have always washed my laminate on my hands and knees since I have dogs and can't always get all the hair up before washing. I then use my shark Vacuum.

I don't have hardwoods, either, but you might find it helpful to know that she is no delicate beast. This vacuum is rugged and the brushes are tough. My laminates take a beating if I forget to rotate the switch to the correct flooring level. Maybe not so good against the finish on your floors..?

I am not sure. I have tile and it works great. I don't see why not. It is not on the floor, I use it in my everyday mop too for a quick clean up. Sorry, I'm not much of a help when it comes to laminate

Yes vacuum first. Yes it is safe for laminate floors. Just don't leave it too long. If you're doing large areas, it's good to change the pad so it won't be too saturated.

Danger Danger! The upright vacuum wheels scratched my hardwood floors. I repeat the wheels on the upright vacuum scratched my hand scraped hardwood floors. I would not EVER use this vacuum on hardwood floors of any kind.

I use it on mine. There is a flap that drops down flush with the floor that may pose an issue but you can manually flap up if you're worried it may scratch. (this is the eraser part-- it's covered in felt and I haven't noticed scratching on my wood. Though to be fair my wood is pretty scratched from my 2 dogs and 3 kids. Lol)

I have nit had a problem with wood floors. If you raise the level to the highest setting the brushes do not touch the wood floor, and there is plenty of suction to do the job.
