Is it stable on carpeting?

Yes. The marble base is so extremely heavy that it pretty much stays glued to all surfaces.

The Stone is very heavy 100 lbs, narrow and tall. On regular carpet about half an inch thick should be ok.

Yes! I have it on carpet. It was actually a concern of mine! The marble base is so heavy that the arc and lamp stay in place. It can sway if it is bumped, but it won't fall. I was just talking about this lamp today at dinner with a friend who is very interested in getting one. My comment- "This is one of the best designs ever!" The shade articulates also, so you can adjust the direction of the light. LOVE IT STILL!

The bar is very stable on our carpeting. However, we place a mat between the base bars for safety.

I have medium thick carpet, fairly new and it sits very well. I'm happy with how stable it is, three legs doesn't make any difference. It has good portion of height for the three legs and maybe the three table tops help that.

Pretty stable unless you have sculptured carpet. However, due to the height, it would be best to anchor to a wall, especially if you have children or pets around.

Excellent! I use it ONLY on my carpet. It's very sturdy, stable, but my 5 month old can move it even on the carpet. The wheels are big and can probably handle big pile. :) HTH

We have it on a hard surface. It is very heavy and very well made. I think it would work just fine on carpet.

I have mine on a carpeted floor with an exercise equipment mat underneath without any stability issues.

We have had ours for ove a year, and it sits on carpeting. It has never been un sturdy, & looks as good today as it did when we first bought it.

It does nit need to be bolted to the ground, putting on carpet is fine. Wouldo be more stable though on hard floor.

Hi. I think it is designed for a flat, smooth surface. Carpet tends to be uneven, regardless of the type, especially when someone steps on it. But I have not tried it on carpet, so perhaps it can serve your purpose. The squares are pretty secure when connected, so you may give it a shot, but I don't think they will stay put.

The machine is very stable. A very slight sway-hardly recognizable. I have it on a piece of carpet on the concrete floor in my basement. Carpeted surface should be fine.

It will stay in place on carpet. I have mine on carpet & I have not had any problems out of it. If you weigh it down I'm sure it could fall but I just use mine for small items & a few books.

I third that. It is fairly heavy for how little it looks is actually there material - wise. It has 2 adjustable stabilizers. Sturdy, heavy = stable on Carpet. I'd be more worried About permanent indentations in your carpet.

Yes! I have this on carpet in my apartment. I recommend putting it in an area in your house that is not high traffic, as it's lightweight and could potentially fall over.

I use mine on carpet...no problems so far. I don't have the instructions handy to confirm that carpet is OK.

It rests on a small round very thick oriental carpet and it is very stable. I sometimes use a paper cutter on it without any fear of tipping.
