I am a woman and would like these to lay down a hard wood floor. Would they scratch the floor?

Very good knee pads, very tough. Use them outside on gravel surfaces day in and out. Would not be afraid to use them to lay flooring. If they scratch the flooring, i would use different flooring because it won't hold up to normal ware and tear anyway.

Possibly, they are hard plastic outside. You could always add a piece of felt or a towel under to protect wood. Otherwise, they are the best knee pads we've found yet [20+ years in the flooring biz] and well worth the money

Surfaces are hard plastic. Would suggest using a foam pad between Knee Pads and floor. Otherwise and depending on the wood they could cause dents. jlg

I bought these for my son. They have a hard shell but are very comfortable.

I have not used my knee pads indoor,but we just had a new floor put down by 2 professionals,and both men wore these particular knee pads on their knees,and there was no damage to the flooring at all.

Yes but you will want to get felt or plastic covers to put in the bottoms so that it won't scratch your flooring.

unfortunately they do scratch floors and you have to pull them to move them.

I have them on the bottom of rugs on laminate flooring and there is no damage. Granted, they don't work at all for rugs. But I don't believe it will damage the flooring at all, even when used with something heavier than a rug...

Yes, I believe they did scratch our wood floor when the chairs slid in and out from our island. However, I placed (inexpensive) pads on the bottom of all the legs/feet & that took care of it. I still love these chairs- although my kids are constantly swiveling back n forth when sitting in them, which nicks up the wood on the sides of the chairs (from our granite counter top). Wished I would have got non-swivel/stationary chairs.

Yes. They are very sturdy chairs. They will scratch the floors if you do not pick up the chair and rearrange. You can add cushions to the bottom for smooth sliding though.

They seem to be plastic. I'm not sure if they would scratch your floor. However, there are chair mats that are wood colored that you can put over your floor if you're worrying about scratching the floors. I love the chair, and I have a plastic mat over my carpeting in my office.

Depends on the chair. It's not a huge investment to try. They do scratch wood floors. We had to put felt tabs on bottom. Have you tried using tennis balls? They can be cut to fit any chair.

I would be afraid of falling if used on wood floors. I have wood in my house and tested them. They are way too slippery on wood.

Absolutely! Your own two feet are more likely to scratch up a floor before these casters. Safe for any kind of flooring/surface.

The chairs come with plastic feet. You screw them in and yes, I can imagine they would scratch a composite wood floor. Felt feet would be better but the plastic feet are so small, you would have trouble applying felt feet to them. Better to apply the felt feet directly to the chair feet without using the plastic feet.

I use them on a tiled floor, but you can glue some felt on so it wont hurt wood floor.

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 doubt it because it is loose on the floor. Do be careful mine were opened and scratched when I received them.

I don't know for sure,but the wheels are the same as all the other hard plastic toys. If those scratch your floors then I would think these would also.

I have mine on ceramic tile and they do not move at all, so my assumption is they will work on hard wood floors as well.

They will probably slide a bit depending on the dirtiness of the floor. The dots are slick on both sides. They do have a little bit of weight to them so they stay in place for the most part.
