Will Mar wood floors?

So far we haven't had any issues ( my biggest daughter weighs 30 lbs) heavier children may dent the floors but that is doubtful as well

It did not mar ours. My grandson only was on our wood floors for a little bit. I think it would depend on how hard the wood is and how heavy the child is. Our wood is very hard and our grandson weighs less than 20 lbs.

My son and his wife have wood floors but they have a protective sealent over the wood so they have no problem with it. The grandkids age 3 1/2 and 18 months love this toy.

No, not this one. It could result in moisture getting into the flooring and causing warpage and damage to the wood.Some steamers are specifically designed for hardwood floors.

Yes. It will damage the floor. Not significantly but it would damage the floor.

No, just go to your local store and buy the felt stuff you put on the bottom of furniture that prevents it from scratching the floor. Same thing.

I have wood floors also, plus an area rug under my dining room table which is over hardwood flooring. I am going to put a sheet of heavy plastic underneath until it is dryed completely.

We have wood floors and haven't seen any marks. You do need t make sure the wheels don't pick up debris after going outside.

It has rubber bumper like legs (3 or 4 stubs in a row) on the bottom of the rails so I don't think it would require a mat. I have it on carpet at this time so unfortunately, I haven't tried it on wood flooring.

No Jason it will not, my floors are mostly wood. The two large wheels are both rubber and one small plastic wheel in which the sweeper spins and turns on. The bristles on the brush are soft as well. It does bounce on furniture and baseboards but no scuff marks or damage. I am very particular about my things and would not recommend this sweeper if it caused damage. You would also find that in other peoples reviews that use iRobot.

I put those little felt pads on the feet of mine to protect my floors. Otherwise I think they probably might.

Changing my answer; the bottom might be too abrasive for shoes; it would damage floors.

i suppose if you are careful.....am assuming you are talking about an under layment wood surface, not any flooring, e.g. pine, oak, etc. I would use a sander instead.

I believe it would still scratch the hardwood floor. The wheels screw into a metal base inside the bars. However, you may be able to file down or have covered.

I would say yes. The floor should have a non porous surface. I would not recommend using on an open grain wood floor such as an unfinished oak floor. I highly recommend this product! It lasts a long time. Two to three coats seems to give the best results. Make your final coat as thin as you can get it. Good Luck!!

The casters i got were hard plastic wheels with two rolling surfaces per caster. I'm sure they would roll perfectly on hardwood but they may eventually mark the wood.

On tile, ok. I found it to scratch my laminate [?wheels]so I'm would not use it on wood floors.

Yes. Also, if you have laminate or hardwood, this mat will ruin your flooring.

I don't think it will scratch wood floors. The bristles are soft enough and the plastic is hard enough to be useful but will bend.
