Hard to slide
Would Not RecommendNo easy to install, hard to take apart, poor design, after I installed, not to easy to slide in and out, and also doesn't came out completely stuck in the middle, frustration, even they're not expensive is not worthy to buy, I should bought something different, better quality, hopefully those little ball bearings won't fall apart with the time
the worst product I ever bought at Lowe's
Would Not RecommendThis Richelieu 22" center mount slide looks good when taken out of the package. After that, it goes downhill. Taking apart the slides was very difficult. There were no written instructions and YouTube videos were sketchy. The actual installation was too hard. The information on the packet was no help and there were no instruction videos. This brand is rarely mentioned on the internet. It does not show up in any reviews.
Way too hard to separate
I've had other slides in this similar style with the baring carrier. You just pull a bit harder after the drawer is fully open and it comes out. These are not done right. Way too tight. Defective. If they were built correctly, you could separate like the instructions say, by pulling firmly when extended. The instructions do not say anything about slamming them apart like the video shows. Separating in this way is going to damage the drawer once everything is assembled. Probably best to ...
Bought this so many times and it keeps breaking
Would Not RecommendI've spent so much money replacing the same drawer slides. It's so frustrating.

Very Aggravating BUT it works!!
Would RecommendAfter reading and watching videos on this slide, OMG, no help. After a few cold beers and some cuts on my hand, I finally figured out how to take this apart. Take the back stop off, slide it as far as it'll go, take a flathead srewdriver and assist it the rest of the way. Mount onto the drawer and slide in from the opposite side you took it out from. Sounds complicated I know, but, grab a few beers and put your ingenuity to the test!!
Perfect for project
Would RecommendWorked for our project. Putting in sliding boxes on kitchen cabinets

Soft close mechanism didn't work
Would Not RecommendSoft close mechanism appears cheaply made - one I purchased didn't work. Lots & Lots of time wasted - had to uninstall and return it to Lowes.
hard to understand the instructions
Would RecommendAt first it seems that the two pieces wont come apart. A you tube video reveals the secret- you have to sit there and bang them really hard many times and then they finally do. and in fact after that installation was easy and they work really well for $5.
Bought 6 of these. Inner and outer portions could not be separated for installation without destroying the hardware.
These are junk.
Would Not RecommendThese glides are horribly designed. I can't recommend them.
