Soft close video - Sturdy, heavy but problems

Update: days later, installing has been an insane nightmare. They are not 1/2" like they should be, they are 7/16 and so I have to redo a whole cabinet to use them. I now regret it. They get stuck and they have no give. They are not easy to work with and may need to return.Previous:Heavy duty! We just received these and I'm very impressed. They definitely are not cheap. These are heavy and solid! I can't wait to get them installed today!Added video to show soft close feature and good solid…

Pros
  • Looks sturdy. I ordered 6 and all worked well. Correct installation is the key to success.
Cons
  • Over time the slides may become loose

They're better than when I purchased

I thought these were a good deal @ $80 for 6 pair. Installation went well, and they felt smooth and sturdy. After a few weeks, one of my drawers lost the "soft close". Upon closer inspection, the little plastic shock-absorber was broken. The seller agreed to send me a replacement once the slides were back in stock. A couple weeks later, I received my replacement, along with a pleasant surprise. The new slide was much improved! The plastic piston is now metal, along with a couple other bits that

Pros
  • When you receive the amount ordered it is perfect. Otherwise have to send back and reorder
Cons
  • The drawer slides may rust over time

Good slides but a challenge to install

I like these slides a lot. They seem well made and sturdy, and I like the slow close action. However, my cabinet does not have perfectly straight sides, and the slides have very tight tolerances. I had to very carefully use shims, with lots of small adjustments along the way with each slide. I installed 7 drawers and had it down pretty well by the last one, but the first one took me and a friend hours to get right.If the surfaces you’re mounting the slides to are not very straight and parallel…

Pros
  • Far better slide than Promark
Cons
  • If the drawer is too heavy, the slides may not be able to support it

Mostly great. good for me

Drawer glides are nice and the soft close feature works very well. I installed them in my pantry to make 6 drawers for dry goods.There was only one glide that gave me a problem. Three of the ball bearings from the wall mount portion fell out and even after putting them back in place, the glide kept binding. Unfortunately it looks like I will have to buy a whole new glide to replace it.

Pros
  • These always work perfectly
Cons
  • Drawer slides do not fully extend 14". About an inch shorter than they should be.

Slides don't slide very well

I was so disappointed in these. There was a lot of friction when closing drawers. Give it a push and it would only slide a few inches and then stop. At first I thought my measurements were off, and I was pinching the slides, but everything was dead on.I finally realized the lubricant they used is a very thick grease. It makes them quiet, but they don't slide well. I cleaned off the grease as best I could (there were big yellow chunks of it), and used a different lubricant, and now they work…

Pros
  • The slides are designed to minimize noise during use
Cons
  • The slides may require lubrication to function properly

Some may ship broken but they are very nice.

These are very nice slides. 1 of the 6 slides was broken, but like many of the customers they sent me a new one as soon as I told them. I would recommend checking the slides as soon as the box arrives. I would order these again.

Pros
  • ※ Soft Close: The drawer slides equipped hydraulic damper which allows the slides achieve soft close effect. Double spring design make less noise when close and open, create a warm and quiet family environment for you
Cons
  • The slides may not fit larger or deeper drawers

Great product - my new review

The product worked really well on the drawers that I installed in a piece I made. They did exactly what I had hoped for and were easy to install with no problems.

Pros
  • The slides are easy to clean and maintain
Cons
  • The slides may not be suitable for drawers that are frequently opened and closed

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Requires a perfect installation

Made two new kitchen cabinets with overlay drawers to match the existing ones, using these cool glides. The hardware looks and feels well made but is still causing me grief after hours of tweaking. Four of my seven drawers work beautifully, but three don’t pull shut correctly for unknown reasons. It must come down to my construction accuracy, but I can’t find the problem. There is no wiggle room. You have to be within, I would say, 1/16” in all directions, and have good luck too.

Pros
  • Easy to install, even for those without experience
Cons
  • The slides may require regular cleaning to maintain functionality

GREAT upgrade for cheap builder grade slides

You can tell right from unboxing that these are sturdy, well made slides. I purchased these to replace the cheap slides that came with our builder grade cabinets. Couldn’t be happier with the results!

Pros
  • They are well greased so be prepared when handling them.
Cons
  • The slides may not be compatible with custom built furniture

You could find better

These slides are nice for the price, however, if I could do it again, I would go with a different brand. The slides feel very slick out of the box, but once installed, you have to physically close the drawer because it’s not slick enough for you to just push it shut. I’ve tossed the drawers pretty forcefully too and the drawer just comes to a stop instead of gliding closed. The soft close mechanism should also pull the drawer in to shut it but most of mine just stop right at the point again, so

Pros
  • Provides a professional finish to any cabinetry project
Cons
  • The slides may not offer enough support for larger or heavier drawers

Good Customer Service

Pretty straight forward drawer slides that seem to be well-made and function as they should. I had one of the soft-close mechanisms break on me during installation and am still unsure of the cause. However, customer service was kind enough to send a replacement.

Pros
  • The precise machining eliminates any wobble or instability in the drawer
Cons
  • The slides may require screws or bolts to secure to the drawer

Instructions could have been better.

Time will tell if they hold up. But as of now I am very happy with how the drawers move. And they are full of cooking pans. Instructions could have been better boyfriend put dozens of holes in the back of the cabinet before he figured how to install these.

Pros
  • The bottom mount design allows for easy access to the screws for installation
Cons
  • The slides may not be suitable for drawers with unique shapes

Only closes at the last inch

These drawer slides operate nicely in terms of the softness of the close, but they do not catch until the very last inch. This is very disappointing. I cannot find anyone with information on whether they should work from a moderate push, because the name Lontan was sold to a fishing line business many years ago. I just called there and the owner has no knowledge about the workings of the drawer slides. I asked my installers but the instructions have no information about adjusting. On the plus…

Pros
  • easy to mount work great, love the automatic dampening feature
Cons
  • If the instructions are not followed, installation can be a hassle

Nice slides! - my new review

Making a new kitchen cabinet, and used these slides for pots and pans drawers. They were as easy to install as any of these types of sliders are (which is to say, a little fiddle, but not too hard) and can support the weight of the full drawer (which is quite heavy with all the pots I have!). They are true full extension and the soft close works well.Two things I particularly like, and haven’t seen (or at least noticed) on other similar sliders I’ve installed: First, when you remove the drawer,

Pros
  • ※ Excellent After-Sale Service: We focus on quality and after-service. If you find any quality problem on our drawer sides, please feel free to contact us, we promise solve it until you are satisfied. Replacements or other solutions would be provided for you. No risk.
Cons
  • The slides may require maintenance to function properly

Good for price: my feedback

Made new work tables for my sewing room. These work great so far, a bit tight even, so waiting for them to loosen up over time, but the self close, soft close mechanism works well.

Pros
  • The full extension design makes it easy to access all items in the drawer
Cons
  • The soft close feature may wear out quickly in drawers with heavy items

Work as hoped on my review.

Great slides at very reasonable price. Delivered very quickly (ordered Friday night and received them by Sunday morning). Had an issue with one slide and lang_hardware remedied the problem immediately. Will very likely use these slides again in the future rather than more expensive box stores at basically the same quality

Pros
  • ※ What you get: You would get 6 pairs of 14in drawer slides, enough for 6 drawer, mounting screws and instruction which make installation easier. Each drawer slides wrapped individually with fine package. Moreover, you would get smoother drawers
Cons
  • The screws provided may not be strong enough to secure the slides properly

Very Happy they work great.

As a first time user I'm very happy happy with these drawer slides. They installed easily and work as promised. The screws are sightly longer than a 1/2" so do not use the included screws on "half inch" plywood (because its actually thinner than a 1/2") or you'll have then poking through the other side. I bought appropriate screws and hardly used the provided screws.

Pros
  • ※ Measurements: Length:14inch(356mm); Width:1.77inch(45mm); Thickness: 1/2inch(12.7mm); Load-bearing capacity: 100 LB. Please choose the right size before you purchase
Cons
  • These slides may not be suitable for outdoor or damp environments

Great value - no issues in installation

For what you pay, I like these drawer slides. I use them in the shop as well as the kitchen. Haven't had a failure or problem yet. Install was pretty straight forward (if you've installed them before), and the consistency of the sliding mechanism is smooth. I haven't had any issues with the soft-close feature. They are a little bit thinner than other slides I have used, but some careful measuring before cutting took care of it. Since I didn't use these drawer slides as replacement slides, I…

Pros
  • The 100 lb weight capacity makes these slides suitable for heavy items
Cons
  • The slides may damage the inside of the cabinet when opening and closing

well built, great quality

I bought these to replace worn out drawer slides in my kitchen. These will outlast the cabinets. Slide easily with soft self close. I think I could have spent much more, but not gotten better quality drawer slides. Highly recommend.

Pros
  • Works great.
Cons
  • These slides may not be the best option for those on a tight budget

Don't last long - my new review

Seemed like a dream come true, until they stopped working. The most used drawers (silverware, lunch containers and lids) lasted about 3 months, then needed resetting by fully withdrawing the drawer and then putting it back in. This worked for a few weeks, and then stopped working. Now the drawers slam again, and one of them won't even stay closed - it is perpetually open about an inch and bounces right back out if you try to close it again. The only feature left is the full-extension (which is…

Pros
  • Tools & Home Improvement
Cons
  • The product may not come with all necessary parts for installation
