Furniture on wheels sounds practical, but honestly, it might not be the best choice for everyone. I've seen clients struggle with casters on vintage or heavier pieces—sometimes they compromise stability or aesthetics. Instead, I'd suggest investing in quality furniture sliders. They're discreet, protect your floors, and still let you rearrange easily without altering the original look of your furniture. Just another angle to consider...

Totally get your point about wheels—had a coffee table once that rolled away every time someone bumped into it. Not fun when you're chasing your drink across the room... Sliders sound like a solid alternative, especially if you're trying to keep things budget-friendly and stable. But I'm curious, has anyone tried those adjustable furniture feet instead? I've seen some online that claim to make leveling easier on uneven floors. Wondering if they'd hold up well over time or if they're just another gimmick.

Haha, been there. Had a rolling TV stand once, and trust me, chasing your furniture around the room gets old fast. Adjustable feet aren't just a gimmick though—I installed some on my dining table last year because our floors are annoyingly uneven (old house problems). They've held up surprisingly well, and it's nice not having to shove folded cardboard under the legs anymore. They're pretty affordable too, so even if they eventually wear out, replacing them wouldn't break the bank. Sliders are decent for occasional rearranging, but if you're redecorating every season like the topic suggests, adjustable feet might save you some headaches in the long run. Just my two cents from someone who's learned the hard way...
Adjustable feet do sound practical, but I'm curious—how much hassle is it adjusting them each time you rearrange? I tend to move stuff around quite a bit too, and while sliders are quick for shifting furniture, they don't fix the wobble issue.
Totally relate—my last place was like that. Maybe a combo of adjustable feet for bigger pieces and sliders for smaller stuff could strike a balance? Seems worth experimenting..."our floors are annoyingly uneven (old house problems)"

Totally agree with this approach. Adjustable feet aren't actually that much hassle once you get used to them—usually just a quick twist or two. Plus, bigger furniture tends to stay put longer anyway, so you're not adjusting constantly. For smaller pieces, sliders are definitely the way to go. Another trick I've found helpful is using small felt pads under legs; they smooth out minor unevenness surprisingly well and protect your floors too.
