Does it damage carpet or wood floor?

I have not noticed any damage so far. Due to the rubber cover, it actually prevents the scratching of wooden floors, and it does not affect carpets. Now, that depends on how much you use the Ab Carver. In time, you may see traces on wood surfaces, but only if you use everytime the same segmentnof the floor. I hope my answer was relevant.

Absolutely not, the design is just so smooth, you could roll it on anything without any problem, it;s a well designed product!!

I am using it on wood floor (no carpet in my living room) and there is no problem.

It may leave a strip imprint (temporarily after use), from the force of your body pressing against the roller, but nothing damaging the roots of the carpet. In terms of the wood floor, I wouldn't roll on soft woods such as maple/brazillian cherry, since they are easily scratched and dented.

I have hard wood floors and no carpet so am unable to answer your question.

It is a metal frame. I don't think it would damage carpet, similar to having a piece of furniture on your carpet. As for hardwood floors, you would not want to scrape it . Mine is in our laundry room on a slate floor and we have not had any problems with movement.

I have laminated wood flooring and have not had a problem. No damage as of yet.

It said no in the instructions. Neither carpet nor wooden floors. I guess it's for safety reasons.

I have wood floors also and it does fine on mine. I haven't noticed any damage from the sweeper. I really like it.

No, it only has plastic on the bottom. Works fine on my carpet, not sure how it would do on a wood floor.

I bought this as a requested gift for someone who's whole purpose was to use on her hardwood floors. I know that she obviously researched this product before she asked for it because she definitely would never take any chances on her hardwood flooring. Also she has been using it and she said she loves it. So at this point it has not caused any damage to her hardwood floors. I hope this helps.

I use it on a carpet out of hyper concern for my wood floor. It works fine.

No, it won't hurt your wood floors, but it doesn't suction up much dirt either.

I'm not sure how it would do on a wooden floor, I actually have carpet, but it didn't leave any marks on my ceiling or the carpet for that matter, so I think it should be fine!

I have wood cabinets and haven't noticed any damage. It had rounded edges at the top and rubber on the bottom.

NO...the instructions say not to use on carpet or wooden floors. A simple fix is to buy four floor tiles at a home improvement center and put those on your carpet with the foot warmer on top. That is what I did and it works great.

I would always test an area to be safe, but, it never damaged anything here. We used this product in two different houses with different types of carpet and all was fine.

Our Dyson scratched our hardwood floors. It's too low to the ground, so anything hard & tiny will get pushed & ground into the floor by the vacuum.

It will scratch any non-carpeted flooring. I have wood floors through out my house. It was only after I ordered, received, opened it & watched the instructional DVD that I learned it was not to be used on wood & other finished flooring because it will scratch it. My son promptly demonstrated that for me. Now I have a circular pattern of scratches from his "trick" he showed me. I would not have purchased this if I had known it would scuff the flooring. My kids did use it outside, too, & it made the bottom of it even more roughed up. If you have carpet & smaller kids I'd say yes, it might be worth the price. Definitely NEED carpet!!!
