What Customers Are Saying
The drawer slides have mixed reviews. Some customers found them easy to install and a good value, but the majority reported significant issues.

No fit
Didn't fit where I needed it to. Probably only good for very specific applications

Hard-to-find Drawer Slider, Lowe's Has It!
Would RecommendI wasn't sure I would find this necessary piece to a drawer in an old kitchen cabinet when the original (old) drawer slider came apart. I went straight to one of the people on the floor, a guy named Jason who has helped me find and choose many different items over the years. He looked first at a shelf where, it turns out, most of these items had recently been located, and we didn't find one that worked for my drawer. Then Jason remembered another shelf, over by the gardening tools, and bingo,...

Bad news
Bought 2, one jammed. The other runs rough. I returned the jammed one, still thinking on whether I'll keep the other. Definitely wouldn't buy again.

Highly highly DO NOT recommend.
Cheap, sort of works if you are not picky
As others stated, getting them apart is difficult and the company is no help. They refer you back to their instructions which do not help. Just take a hammer and a punch and force them apart.

Not something you’ll want to use every day
Would Not RecommendGetting the top and bottom of these slides apart is ridiculous. You can separate them more easily if you slide the top (the drawer mounted piece) through the rear of the bottom (cabinet mounted piece) but that’s just about useless once the drawers are actually installed - once they are it’s quite a bit of work to take them back out. They’re poorly lubricated, hard to separate, and don’t slide without some resistance. They work, but after having used them on an upcycled dresser - I’d recommend s...
