Can anyone help with my question please? I have just purchased the Vibrapower Slim. One of the first things it says in the manual is NOT to put it on carpet. Well, unless I put it in the kitchen or bathroom, I am stuck! Is it just because it may mark the carpet or is there another reason? Is the machine still effective on carpet? I could always stand it on the exercise mat or even an old piece of carpet or lino. There did not seem to be a helpline number on the manual, so I thought I would ask the question here!! Thanks in advance.
