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. The slides were very difficult to separate into the two pieces needed for installation, with unclear instructions. The quality and durability were questionable, with some breaking or malfunctioning after limited use. The slides often did not fit properly, requiring additional materials to make them work. Overall, the consensus is that the poor design and lack of clear instructions make these slides more trouble than they're worth, despite the low price.

Would RecommendThis solved the problem of previous slide failure. Price is nice. Please carry the other lengths available. I had to cut this down an inch (1/4-inch on one end and 3/4-inch on the other) to make it fit where a 15-in slide was needed. Saved my grand-daughter's dresser.

We purchased one drawer slide to make sure it would work, before we purchased all 3. This was to replace some broken slides on a chest of drawers. When we opened it, it it only opened half way. Didn't think I would like that if we could only open the drawer half way We couldn't pull them apart either. My husband tried several times and finally it broke. I told him I thought it was defective because we googled it, and saw where they do, in fact, pull apart. So we went back to Lowe's and ope...

Smooth operation
Would RecommendI used two of these mounted to the bottom of a square low wood box frame inside one of my low cupboards. Now I just slide out to see stored items. No more bending down. Works great.
Replacement for Dresser and Chest of Drawers
Would RecommendHad to go to youtube to learn had to separate for installation. Once separated installation was a breeze. The screw holes lined up with the screw holes from the old slide. Would have given it 5-stars if it would of had instructions on how to separate the slide.
Drawer slide
Would Not RecommendDid not work in our older kitchen drawer and had to return it Old slide was welded and reused. It did sound like a good replacement with ball bearings but no way to install it properly.

Easy install with smooth action
Would RecommendThese worked better than expected. I put them on old (and I mean old) oak built in drawers. They were heavy and clunky and I worried this may not be strong enough to handle these drawers but they worked great and they are so easy to install. Cant go wrong for $6 a slide

Good but with an issue
Would RecommendThe slides were used in a bedroom chest and dresser for my granddaughter with drawer widths of 27" and 34" respectively. With some study and planning slides were relatively easy to review (I have moderate skills). Although I actually needed a 15" slide, there was enough room at the back of the drawer that the 16" slide did not hit the back wall and was useable. Slides offer some resistance and are not as smooth to open as I would like although for the price they cannot be beat. My biggest iss...

center drawer slide
Would Not RecommendI needed a single slide to replace an old one, and the cabinet was not built to accommodate a set of side slides. This was the only single available at Lowes and I did not have time to buy online elsewhere. The instructions do not explain how to get the 2 slides apart, which is tricky but must be done to mount them. And once installed the slide it not nearly as smooth as any of the ball bearing side slides. Overall disappointed, but it will do the job in a pinch.

22" Center Mount Drawer Slide
I bought this to remedy my old kitchen drawers that were deteriorating from the side wooden rails. The directions are a bit confusing, small type, and poorly scripted. I went online (Googling) to figure out how to get the rail separated which takes some muscle to do and to get started with the installation. If you're not a patient person then I would recommend having a carpenter do this for you. I had to modify the drawer, add lumber to the inside cabinet, and use shims to get this to work. Once...
This product exactly how it was meant to work.
Would RecommendI had kitchen drawers that are over 30 years old and slides that are longer in use or for sale and were mounted under the drawers. The Richelieu 22-in drawer slide worked perfectly as a center under mount as I had no space on the sides of the drawers.

Very difficult to install
Would Not RecommendThis drawer slide was the only one that I could find for under mount of a dresser drawer. It was very difficult to install. The problem was getting the two pieces apart. It was near impossible. I thought I was going to break the b side. Once it was apart, not terribly difficult to install. The plastic glides that they give to hammer in the dresser are junk. Two of them broke when hammer them in.
