Which one is better for the wood floor without scratch, 71B or 41A?

I have the 71B which is used almost exclusively for carpeted stairs. I do not " flip " the front to do the risers. Rather, I just invert the vacuum itself. That is quicker and just as effective. I have never used this vacuum or ANY vacuum on my hardwood floors. I am not sure what the 41A is. If it is the previous version of this vacuum I would offer the same comment having had one of those. I use the 71B's hose attachment with a brush to clean cold air return registers.

I have the model 41a. You are able to switch from carpet to bare floors. The carpet setting has bristles but I do not think they would damage the floor any more than a hand broom would. The bare floors setting has no bristles.

Both of the vacuums have a setting to turn off the rotating bristles, the 41A just happens to have a (slightly) more high powered motor, (slightly) longer cord, and rolling wheels (which might help a bit if you would use this thing on hardwood floors without using the bristles). I don't have the 41A, but I never had problems with 71B on any surface...it's great and I'm sure 41A is great too, it's the updated model of the EasyClean.

Sorry, I don't know - I usually use it for cleaning the carpet on my stairs, or I use the attachment for cleaning in small places

I do not really use the 41A on my hardwood, but I don't think I'd hesitate. However, being that the 71B is lighter, and still has the rotating brush, it may be a little easier, perhaps less-bulky to use. Personally I use the "BISSELL PowerEdge Pet Hard Floor Vacuum, 81L2T" on my hardwood.

You would need to use this vacuum on the low setting. I haven't noticed any new scratches on my wooden laminate floor.

I called Hollywood Bed Frames, and I was told the 4069 is for CA King, while the 4169 is for the Eastern King (typical King) bed. I was also told that if there's a BR after the number, it indicates it has rollers, and if there is a BG after the number, it indicates it has the glider style feet. This information was hugely helpful for me. I also noticed that in the review section on Amazon, all the reviews for the Serta Stabl-Base bedframes are grouped together with some of them referring to the roller style and others to the gliders, etc.

I am using the BOSTITCH FLN-200 2-Inch Flooring L-Nail for our ¾ engineered hardwood. That is the recommended size for this wood and the nailer is putting it into the floor no problem.

I have ceramic tile and this product works very well. Even my heaviest furniture is kept in place. My 84"sofa, a very heavy, kiln dried hardwood frame with steel springs and 6 cushions (the movers groaned moving this), is stable with 200+lb. folks sitting down and rising from the sofa. One pad wore through after about a year, but that's still a good buy for me.

I have wood laminate floors and it works great, great suction, no problems. I am very satisfied with my DC41.

I never knew exactly what wood was used in the floors but felt safe in using Bona. The following link I picked up from the bamboo flooring site. http://www.calibamboo.com/cleaning-bamboo-flooring.html I hope this is great help for you. Happy polishing!!!

I would call the S.R. Smith customer service number which you can get via google and speak to someone about the differences. Also, you need to make sure that your existing base has the correct holes which need to be measured. We bought a replacement and went with the less expensive option because it has MUCH more flex and are very happy with it. We do run a risk of it cracking more easily, but no problems yet, and a really stiff board just isn't fun so we are happy we switched.

It's really a soft "dust mop". It is less likely to scratch if that's a concern. We use the Bona products exclusively after we had our new hardwood floor installed. We use the Swifter for tile surfaces. ope this helps you.

Hi, the M44-7 is actually one of the best scratch cartridges out there - many scratch DJs will use the 447 exclusively ... so definitely this is one of the best choices out there for turntabalism, beat juggling and scratching.Please let me know if you have any other questions, I will do my best to assist you.JenniferMillennium Worldwide

the 782 will cut up to 2 x 16 at 90 degree and the 716 will only cut 2 x 10 inch boards 782 does crown molding up 7 1/2 inch and the 716 only does up to 6 5/8 . A lot just has to do with what size boards you plan on cutting if you think you will be cutting any boards up to 16 inches then get the 782 if you don't think you will be cutting any over 10 inches get the 716 .

I have wood floors. It did not scratch. When I brought it back inside I always checked the bottom for dirt and rocks. It is a wonderful dog enclosure. Just strong enough for my ShizTsu and not too heavy for me to move. I now own 2 of them..

This is a solid tool for flooring and waay cheaper than renting. Heavy! Will put a flooring nail (kinda chunky, min 1-1/2 long or 2" std), through the tougue and groove into subfloor at about 45'. I imagine this will work fine with any tongue and groove assembly 3/4 thick including tongue and groove bamboo. Not the tool for large 4'x8' bamboo sheets. The nails offered as "buy with" BOSTITCH FLN-200 2-Inch Flooring L-Nail, 1000-Per Box would be fine, I tend to also use a generous dose of flooring adhesive to ensure creaks don't start in the future also. Make sure your sub floor is solid and soundly fixed to joists underneath. The flatter the better ! Supplied with air hose conn and mallet let me know if you would be interested to buy a slightly used unit! Still in exc condition.

While I do not have hardwood floors my friend has hardwood floors throughout her house and she also has the iRobot Roomba 630 and it did not scratch her floor.
