Can the casters be removed so that the chair doesn't roll?

You could but there are some protrusions on the bottoms and you would have to fix it so it sat flat on the floor.

Yes, they could be removed, but it looks like you'd want to add some floor protection to the exposed hardware

Casters are hard plastic, I have vinyl in my laundry room so would not be a concern for me

I am not confident this chair would hold up without casters relative to the frame made for it. Mine is barely holding together as it sits on casters. It wasn't my smartest choice but, minimally at least my money's worth, and no more.Never tried but, could you impede roll or, just create more potential for an accident with door stops?

There are no casters on the legs. There is a roller in the front where the front legs attach to the main body of the machine. The roller is not useable unless the machine is folded up. The roller is quite small in diameter and is not very useful, especially if used on a rough surface. I would love to have casters on the front legs that could be locked in an up position when the machine is being used but locked in the down position so the thing could be rolled around without having to fold it up first.

I just checked. The are clearly not designed to be removed but can be. The wheels are the normal type casters seen on office stuff like filing cabinets or bins. The wheels attached to a metal plate about 1" square which appears to slide/snap into place on the plastic case. I'm sure with a little effort you can easily remove them--I didn't try.BTW, I find the SPT to be amazingly effective--I live in a motorhome and the humidity was creating problems with our cabinets till I started using it. Also discovered how much more comfortable it is with it running.

Yes..just don't install either of them.Can't speak to the stability of not having the casters in though..

Yes, just don't put the casters on and will work fine. Also 2 of the casters have a locking mechanism preventing the cart from free-wheeling.

No caster's, but I bet you could get some from Lowes. Great idea, I think I'll try that too.

...if u can find the appropriate replacement then sure. The casters are nice quality and don't think they would scratch. Having legs that don't roll might scratch the floor even more? Or just glue the casters so that they can't roll...

When you say casters, I am assuming you mean wheels. The chair is pretty substantial, so I would get really strong wheels. It wouldn't do much for the look of the chair. The seat is pretty high too, so be sure you measure the bottom of the vanity. I love this chair. It looks good even from the back.

No, the casters do not lock. If you are using a rug under the bed, it is pretty stable. There is no lock to secure it when it is in the raised position, but there is a release bar that you have to press while you push down in order to lower the bed, so it is secure when it is in the raised position

Correction to my answer: The casters account for 4 inches of the height. I am assuming the casters could be removed if you want a lower height and don't want to move it around.

No, the casters don't lock. I got rid of our after the first day (see my negative review) because it was very unsafe on our hardwood floor.

Yes, you can use casters that slips under the feet. I checked after I wrote that first.

I don't think they're intended to be removable, but you could probably just leave them off. More importantly, the casters on them are lockable, so you can just wheel the stand to where you want it then lock the wheels and it'll stay in place.

The wheels don't have locking mechanisms, but my chair is on a fairly thick rug and it doesn't move unless I really want it to. I had initially planned to leave the wheels off, but I wouldn't advise it unless you have some sort of protective barrier between the feet and the floor.

There is a housing (looks like maybe for the engine) that is below. I never thought of taking the casters off, and am not sure why you would want to. As another reviewer said this unit is very easy to move around. As I said in my earlier review, one of the things we really enjoy is how efficient the dehumidifier is, and that it puts out cold air as it dehumidifies.
