Can you use this vacuum on hardwood floors?

Yes, and it works very well on other hard surfaces like tile too. Instead of blowing the dirt and dust away as you come close to it, the suction pulls it right in. It saves SO much time when you're not chasing dirt around the floor!

No, but I use it all the time on my hardwood floors with no problem. Same with the kitchen tile. This is a great vacuum, especially if you have pets.

It works well on my hardwood floors. Gets up all the dirt. Only issue I have with it is it's not very effective in getting dirt and dust out of the corners. I have I use another broom or vacuum. Otherwise it's great. FYI I have a lot to sweep; I have four boys and a siberian husky so I use it daily.

I have hardwood floors with area rugs. It works ok on the floors but the only con about the machine is no floor attachment to really hug the floor. I still wouldnt trade it for any other machine. It really picks up pet hair well. I use the plastic wand pieces to get along the edges of my floors.

It works great on hardwood floors, but doesn't have the power for carpet, I am still trying to find a vac that picks up pet hair and dirt from carpet that doesn't weigh a ton!! Have a bad back, if you find one please let me know!!

I would probably just use a steam mop on hardwood floors. This machine is marketed as a "carpet"cleaner and is excellent for that.

Yes. In fact, it does a superb job on hardwood floors. Most of my house is either hardwood or tile...only the bedrooms are low-cut carpet. This vacuum does great no matter what the surface is. Highly recommended!

Since I do not have hardwood floors, I have no personal experience with this vac on hardwood. But it works great on my tile floors.

No, I would not recommend this for hardwood floors. It would be easier to use a simple steamer like the Shark brand models.

It works well on hardwood floors with floor brush attachment. We have dogs and it picks up all dog hair with lots of suction

Thanks for the email and the great question :) For hardwood floors you have 2 options. 1. You can simply turn off the power head motor and use straight suction from the vacuum. or 2. You can attach the included hardwood floor tool that's designed to be used on all hard floors. Let us know if you have any other questions :) Thanks Dustin Great-Vacs (seller)

I have found that this does not work well on carpet or rugs. It works well on hardwood, tile and vinyl. So if the areas you are vacuuming are not carpeted, it will work well.

In general I would say yes. It's optimal on carpet but you don't have to do anything to adjust it for going on hardwood or linoleum. Nothing's "perfect" but it's hands down the best vacuum I have ever owned.

Im not sure about hardwood floors but have used my machine on Pergo flooring without a problem but make sure you're on the correct setting.

I do not have hardwood floors. It is a smaller vacuum that I keep upstairs for our loft bedroom and bath. It is very powerful for its size. It is mostly carpet up there and does a very good job. It also works well on the tile floor, so I would imagine it would be good on hardwood too. The attachments are handy. Hope this helps. I have been very happy with it.

The brush is only for rugs. Instructions say to turn off the brush for hard surfaces. With the brush on, the vacuum will throw particles around on a hardwood floor. The vacuum itself rolls around easily so it shouldn't cause any problems.
