I don't have carpet I have hardwood floors and I was just wondering would this mat be a good product for hardwood floors?

You might want to consider getting at least a throw rug to put directly on your hardwood floor and then put the mat on the rug. That way no moisture would get under the mat to damage your floor. The mat also help to lessen the sound of my treadmill, and I'm really glad I have it. If you had to move your treadmill, having the rug under the mat would make it very easy to slide it on your floor. Hope this helps.

I am using it on a carpet. I have no problem with it. It looks and works fine on a carpet. From the looks of it, It should work fine on the hard work floor. I am expecting some type of stain on the carpet when I remove it, although I am not sure, you may expect some type of streaks from the rubber when you use it on a long run. Overall it is a good product.

Yes, it will protect your floor from the treadmill. You need to get it, we have it on our carpet and recently moved the treadmill and rubber mat to shampoo the carpet and the carpet was not damaged. This mat should especially protect your wood floors as well! Happy treading!!

I do think it would work. We do have carpet in that room, but I don't see any indentations in the mat and he's a big guy that rides it everyday.

I have hardwood floors and I needed a good mat for my Pilates Reformer because my neighbors/family downstairs said they can hear me working out. The rubber mat is so thick and wide, I cut it in half and stacked it, my machine sits on top of the mats. It works because my neighbors don't hear me working out.

I've never used it on hardwood floors, because I think it would be too slippery. I use other products on my floors like Orange Glo and specialty floor products.

No, I would not recommend this for rugs. Even on hardwood I find it barely adequate. I do not like the shape of the foot piece.

Our Barracuda exercise mat works well on most carpets. It may shift a bit depending on the thickness and shine/gloss of the carpet, but so far most people have found that it works well on carpet. Thanks for your interest in our product:)

I am sorry I cannot help you as my mat is on carpet. If you find out the answer let me know as we are about to replace the area's carpet with wood flooring.

I bought the mat along with the treadmill, but I haven't used it. I don't believe it is necessary on carpet floors.

I don't know that it would be thick enough? It's only about 1/8"-1/4" thick and it's flimsy. It's great for under exercise equipment on carpet. A great comparison would be to an exercise mat. I'd look for thicker a mat, more industrial.

I also have hardwood floors, and it hasn't scratched them from what I can tell (my dog mainly plays on the carpet with it). It is designed to roll and doesn't have much of an area that would scratch floors.

The product is fairly heavy so in my opinion it would work quite well on hardwood as long as there would not be constant traffic - kids, dogs, etc. I consider the cover a great product.

I'm not a fan of it for plush carpets since it's a soft plastic; chairs leave large dents in it, making it hard to move around on if you have a chair with wheels. On my plush carpet, the chair moves around better without the mat. The mat does protect the chair wheels from getting string and lint on the axels however.

I have hardwood floors, too, and it did reduce noise and vibration quite a bit. That being said, I would have to think the thicker mat would be best for noise reduction.

We have all hardwood floors in our house and I always placed this mat over our rug in the living room. It tends to slide around on hardwood floor and doesn't provide a lot of cushion.

I use a mat, not the Concept one but the puzzle piece kind, so I'm not 100% sure it that would be fine. My guess would be that it would be, however my only concern would be the sweat... 30min/day is going to produce a lot of sweat, are you going to be ok with it falling on your carpet?

i would say no to carpet, it is very low profile, works great on my hardwood floor.....

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.

I use mine on carpet since we have hardwood throughout and don't want to scratch the floor. Its an area rug but it works just fine. Hope this helps !!!
