Is there any grip on the bottom? Or will these slip too easily on hardwood floors?

No, there are no grips and yes, they are slippery on hard floors. I gave some to my 4.5 year old nephew and he loved them and learned to manage them on the hard floors, but only after a lot of practice and supervision. Also, he preferred to use them without shoes so he could grip with his toes.

You asked a great question. The feet are formed in typical bucket fashion. They are concave or hollow underneath, with about a quarter inch perimeter made of the same molded plastic. There is no rubber grip, but there are small circles molded on the plastic that seem to be added for that purpose. Yes, the bucket feet do slip on tile and wood. My son (3) learned to walk with them using a carpeted hallway. After gaining balance, he is able to walk slowly on the tile, but your concern is valid.

I don't believe there are any grips on the bottom. They are a little slippery on hardwoods although the kids we gave them to (ages 3-7) had little difficulty on hardwoods---- but they are easier on carpet. We haven't taken them outside yet but I'm guessing, if your yard is flat, they will be great on the lawn. Monster Feet are super fun for the kids to to walk in as well as super fun for the adults to watch!

We do not have that issue. I have them on hardwood floors and tile flooring and they slide very nicely. I do have the "beads of rubber " on the inside , could that be your problem?

They will probably slide a bit depending on the dirtiness of the floor. The dots are slick on both sides. They do have a little bit of weight to them so they stay in place for the most part.

I have a laminate floor, and there is no slipping whatsoever. I imagine it would be the same for wood. The item itself is pretty heavy.

Yes they will slip if you only use a few. The more you use the less they slip. Also anchoring the corners with weights or furniture is helpful.

My chairs are on hardwood but I just sat on one while it was half on carpet, half on hardwood and I am guessing that they will not slide off. You hammer them into the bottom of the chair, they seem very secure. So far, I love this product especially after years of using the stick on kind that don't stay put over time.

No, there is no "natural grip" on the inside bottom of the tray. However, I haven't had any problems with things sliding around a great deal.

The orange insert is a soft rubber. I think they would be safe on hardwood floors.

I have not had any issues. The rubberized feet rested nicely and there was no sliding or slippage on the floor.

Yes, they are safe. I have hardwood floors as well and the feet have a rubber type cover on them.

The feet have grippers. Mine is also on carpet & next to the hard drive so no slipping.

I never had a problem with them slipping at all. Mine are stacked on my desk and have a little lip that sort of locks together. I love them.

None. I'm using a steelseries with no rubber grips on the bottom and I have no issues with it sliding.

Yes, they are well balanced and very stable. They have small rubber protectors, (2 on the bottom of each leg) and won't scratch the wood floor. Although, a small throw rug underneath might not be a bad idea in case of spillage.

It does not have anti slip on the bottom of the matt. I will say that we have hardwood floors on our first floor and my daughter hasn't had any problems with it slipping.

I honestly do not know because the ones I have are either on a rug and/or hardwood floors. I love them...the suction on the bottom really holds them secure and still. Sorry, I couldn't help.

I believe they are not rubber. I have some hardwood floors and I don't have any problem with slippage. The brakes are very good and allow control after you get accustomed to using them.
