That's what I thought when I first saw them, but I was proven way wrong. The rubber on the outside, although smooth, is very soft so it grips well. It pushed a 180 lb person sitting on their butt across the carpet with the robot weight only around 50 lbs. And because of our short and wide config, we are still able to turn easily enough.
