Hi, I just bought this for my daughter and it does not attach to the floor. There is really no tipping danger, though.

Like others have said- it doesn't attach, but the base is wide enough that there's no tipping danger. We've owned this for over 6 years and it has not tipped once. It also has been used on both carpet and wooden floors and doesn't move or slide. Very stable product.

All you need to put the toy together is a Phillips screwdriver. It can be assembled in 3-5 minutes. Very sturdy and safe, won't tip over.

I have only used it on my countertop and table since my son is 4 months old. But I did try it on our stroller for you to test your question out! You could leave it on the stroller when you collapse it but just make sure there isn't anything around that could just knock it off! But to me it seemed like it stayed on pretty well the few times we tried it and that is after several times of removing the wheel from other surfaces. I did find that if the surface isn't clean, then the suction gets dirty but I just took a dry paper towel to it to clean it off! The toy is pretty entertaining though, at least for my son!

Unfortunately, this one is a hard plastic material that doesn't grip the floor- it slips all over the place, so you'd have to tape it down or secure it somehow. You're better off getting a foam rubber type.

It is most definitely secure. It doesn't slide at all. Watch the YouTube video on how to install it securely before you buy, but it's not hard at all. The only limitation is if you've got a table with curved edges, but like I said, watch the video. But no way could another kid pull it off. :) Its an awesome purchase. Highly recommend it.

Hello, it's ok, no problem with the floor, and my two years old loves it. I hope is not to late my answer for you. Best regards

It is sturdy...we sit on top of it to put on our shoes. It will depend on what type of floor it will be on as to whether it can be pushed around. However, it is heavy but nothing is toddler proof.

I don't know specifically. However, having had 2 of them in non-tile floor, I know you will need to drill a hole with a proper tile cutter. The post will go down into the sub floor too. But you will love having it. So weird, I just looked at mine yesterday and made note of how I like having that extra security.

The "legs" are positioned on the outside of the bottom piece within the groove located there. Once the top is in position, they will be secure. Be Patient!

It will break ... sometimes. I have dropped a couple on our wooden floor that did not break but they did on concrete. As to whether they will shatter, if from high enough yes. So you have to be careful.

Yes it can be secured to the floor .I don't know about securing to the wall. I do really love the sink it is so much bigger and nicer than other sinks we looked at.

Yes, it does need to be mounted to some kind of deck (we drilled into our concrete pool surround). Pay close attention to the size details before ordering, because it was MUCH smaller than we anticipated!! Perfect slide for kids up to eight years old, but I would definitely not get it for anyone older than that! You don't have to worry about kids falling off of the steps, but it does still seem tipsy enough to fall over if it is not mounted down. The water "spout" feature that turns it into a waterslide when connected is a must-have feature, since it is hard for the kids to "slide" off of it/around the corner without a (more enhanced) slippery surface.

Like another comment, I have mine on the floor also. It comes with an anchor to hang it. It has simple instructions.

We attached our to our metal bead frame, we have it set so it doesn't even tough the floor (hardwood). One tip if you order this you will need a frame also, make sure the frame is long enough or you are able to adjust the length to attach the foot, we had to weld a piece to ours (because I didn't want to buy another one). So my answer is the bead will be as sturdy as the frame you buy.

You definately want to anchor this to the ground. It comes with 4 long U shaped spikes and straps that secure it to the ground. If the child swings to hard it will come up on the pavement. We built ours on the concrete patio and I tried it for sturdiness before moving it onto the mulch of the playground, it definately slides and the small end (without the house) will rock back and forth. Even now when I swing next to my son (he's one, and in the baby swing and I'm about 115 pounds) it moves a little bit and it's anchored in really good. This wouldn't deter me from buying it again since it isn't made for bigger kids (or me...) You definately want to anchor this to the ground.

If you have tile or hardwood floors it doesn't slip! It kind of has a non slip grip at the bottom to help.

Yes it will slide on hardwood floors, we placed something beside it on the outside to stop it. I didn't remember getting anything to prevent it sliding, but it might have!

Afternoon - it will sit on the floor, I recommend attaching to a piece pf plywood for that is maintains being sturdy. Please let me know if you have any more questions. Elisa
