I think Joe has his on wheels. Maybe a furniture dolly. Yep that's it! [url="http://www.chambersvirtualconvention.com/showroom_kitchens2.htm"]Joe's kitchen[/url]
I plan on doing the same or, something similar. We will be installing hardwoods in the kitchen and I don't want to rip them to shreds if I ever have to move my stove.

Hello, we put our Chambers legs on those nylon slider things you can buy at Walmart or Home Depot. We have a cork floor. It slides in and out very easily, and doesn't seem to mark the floor.
A very inexpensive way to go.
Best,

PS I have my chrome legs exposed - do not have a skirt, if that makes a difference in your case.

Thanks, your the second one to suggest them. Ha-safan had emailed me about them. I think he called them appliance mover disks.
I'm trying to visualize them, are they round and do you use one on each corner?

Clutter-Bug....You have chromed legs ? Ours are plain black metal...chrome sounds great ! Asper wheels vs sliders, the sliders truly are remarkable and are far less distracting than wheels. Kudos on the cork floor ! Cork can't be beat. Did you use the tiles or planks ? Pre-finished or not ? A cork floor with regular maintenance will last a lifetime and then some.

I use the "moving men" sliders. They work great and don't scratch our tile or 100+yr old oak and pine floors. I too choose not to put the stove skirt back on. However, we do have the felt pads on the bottom of the legs. Just checked the legs and they're black!! Chrome legs, how sharp looking.

We put ours on a piano dolly since we were still in different stages of kitchen development. I got so used to the extra height, that when we had the cabinets and counters installed by Home Depot we left it on the dolly (securely anchored) for future moving if necessary. We are happy with our Pergo floor. Very easy maintenance.
What do you have to do to a cork floor?...v

The only maintenance a cork floor requires is sweeping, wiping up spills and infrequent barely damp rubdown. They are hypo allergenic, warm, soft, acoustically superior...only genuine linoleum is even close to cork and that's because cork in a component in linoleum. Also, cork is the bark of a tree. The bark can be strppied from the tree every eight years and does not destroy or harm the tree. Most cork used in flooring is from the bottle cork industry, just the remnants turned into tiles.

I thought 84-year old oak hardwood floors were the best!
I was going to put Mrs. Adams on wheels but decided she still had nice legs.
