Ratings & Reviews for Richelieu 15.75-in Center Mount Zinc Drawer Slide 35-lb Load Capacity

Works well

This unit is good if you are a fabricator and have a good selection of tools on hand.

Just what I wanted

I had built a pantry for my wife and she wanted a pull out drawer. This center slide was the perfect answer as no hardware was showing

Perfect for Intended Use

These slides are sturdy and well-made (for less than $5 retail!). Problems others have had are the result of not understanding how the mechanism operates and being unable to properly separate the two tracks. No YouTube needed just a little confidence that you're not going to break the slide if you pull it quickly toward the removal end--banging the bearing slide against its stop. Repeat the process until the top slide comes out. Now you can attach the top slide to the bottom of the drawer. ...

Decent center mount drawer slide

These are decent center mount drawer slides, worked without issues in my project. Yes, they are not silk smooth, but a few touches of silicone grease fix it easily. Yes, they require some force to separate, but that's just how center mount drawer slides work. At this price, I don't know what could be complained about.

needes something for a new desk

Decided to build a a new desk and had a specific look in mind for the drawers. These were perfect for what I wanted.

Poor design.. not durable

Comes with NO instructions on how to gey the pieces apart for assembly. Had to look it up on YouTube. One came apart easily with no hassle. The others would NOT come apart. I even wet back to the store and had the gentlemen there try. No luck. The screws that come with it are super small and fall out making the drawer get stuck when opening and closing. I do not recommend this product.

Slide too tight

The drawer didn't side as easy as my wife would like. I ended up using side slides with ball bearings instead.

Working very well and I loved the price

As with any slide, I had to put a spacer on the bottom of my drawer. The slide is so much cheaper than any other one I found online and it seems to work very well. On Youtube there is a video on how to separate and re-attach the two pieces, it's easy to do. I need to by a few more since this one worked so well. I sprayed it with some white lithium grease which it didn't need but I thought it might help keep the track and barrings nicely lubed up for the future.

Center draw slide

Works okay but if you ever need to remove the drawer, you have to uninstall the track.

Work great!

My husband used these for the kitchen drawers in our 1974 mobile home. The drawers are kind of shallow and the old wood runner and plastic glider made it real easy to pull the drawer out too far. Always had to be so careful. He had no problem installing these. Had to yank rather hard to separate the pieces, but was able to do so. So now the drawers open and close more easily and there is no danger of pulling them out too far. I'm very pleased.

Junk

Like other reviewers I found that it is necessary to take the two pieces apart for installation. While the (completely useless, vague) instructions make a reference to the two pieces being apart they give you no clue as to how to do that. After watching two YouTube videos I finally got it apart. Then after installing the pieces to the drawer and cabinet, it was time to put them back together. I immediately wished there was a video for that. In the wrestle to get them together one of the screws p...

worked as described, had to use two on larger drawers.

Terrible product

Bought 2 bottom slides to place under a slide out shelf in my kitchen pantry. The drag on the slides is way too tight, even tried to grease them. Couldn't get the slides apart even after reading instructions several times and watching video on YouTube. Poor design. THESE ARE GARBAGE, YOU'VE BEEN WARNED. Read the negative reviews, wish I would have before I bought these. Choose a different brand.
