Is this ok to have on the floor? Will it create a puddle?

It is fine on the floor, but you'll want to have something under it because eventually any humidifier will leak. I wouldn't expect leaks anytime soon from this, but eventually it happens. I'd be cautious about hardwood floors because a certain amount of the mist does settle in the immediate area. That being said, mine is on hardwoods with a plastic tray underneath it. It won't work on carpet (I get erroneous "tank empty" messages whenever i try).

I had a horrible experience. Puddle on the floor because the tank leaked. The mist only went about 12 inches into air and fell onto the floor. Nasty!

Always place humidifier on a firm, flat, level surface. A waterproof mat or pad is recommended for use under the humidifier. Never place it on a rug or carpet, or on a finished floor that may be damaged by exposure to water or moisture.

We have it on a mat, just to be safe, but I haven't noticed it get damp at all. The water comes out upwards and is a very fine mist.

Well, if you operate it with the mist on high, then , yes, it will get your floor wet. However, you can adjust the amount of mist so that it is so fine it will evaporate before hitting the floor. (That how we usually operate it). You can even turn the mist off so that only the fan blows.

There is a caution on laminate floors that reads "Water will drip from brushes and underside of the product after use and puddle. To avoid damage to laminate and wood flooring ---- remove to a hard surface and place unit on absorbent material". Sooooo I'd say it's okay. The machine does not put out a tremendous amount of cleaner, but I would be careful of how much is sitting on the laminate. Vacuum up right away.

Definitely not. I'm sure it would be fine if you spilled a little liquid on it, but it is definitely not waterproof.

I am pretty sure your floor will not dry if the tray is placed directly on the tiles. Hope this helps...

This mat has open slats and some water will drain down onto your floor. if the bathroom is open, you can let the water dry on its own. I suggest cleaning it once a week to remove any watermarks.

No, the pump gets just very loud, because it pumps mostly air. The thing is OK but nothing to write home about. If your floor is not 100% plane, the bowl runs over and everything gets wet.

A few sprinkles won't hurt it, but a good soaking or two will probably cause some damage. We have ours right next to the sink in our bathroom.

Depends if you want a glass of water on the floor. If you have a rug, pets or small kids I would think it would not be a good idea, but otherwise could be ok.

Yes you need to drain it. If you are running it continuously and you don't drain it the water will drain onto your floor.

I have mine on carpet and it hasn't ruined the carpet. I think it will be safe.

I don't think you should use this on floors. It leaves a shiny oily residue that lasts for a couple of weeks that will make the floor slippery.

If water is splashed on it it does not hurt it and can be dried up, but you've got to be careful when doing so because you can be shocked. It scares you more than hurts you. Too if you put it by the sink you need to always remember to wear shoes so you don't get the static charge.

No leaks with mine. You'd think it would overflow onto the floor as water comes down the slide, but I haven't had any such issues. But, yes, be prepared for the cat to splash a bit at first as it explores this new item!
