Shop Fox D3031 18-Inch Full Ext Drawer Slide 100-Pound Capacity Side Mount, Pair Review

First, this is partly my fault. Normally I buy KV brand slides. Because of that instead of hunting for them on Revain I just went to my list of purchases and typed in "Slides" in the search. The slides I have purchased in the past popped up. I clicked on one of them and it took me to the slides that I bought the last time. This time I needed 26" slides so I clicked on the box offering the various sizes. I verified that I was ordering 26" slides and added them to my cart. I…

First, I got these to serve a specific purpose that isn't a drawer. My condo HOA won't let me replace a window frame without a major hassle and headache, and these were installed in 1980. Not good at keeping sound or heat out. What's worse is that the window looks out onto the roof (mine is a 2 story unit, upstairs, so my loft overlooks the roof) which has 8 AC units (4 packaged, 4 compressor only). These get noisy and I get resonating hums at times that almost physically make me ill. So I've…

I read the reviews before I ordered these. I was worried because it seemed many of those reviews were written by professional cabinet makers . it is my experience over many years that people doing things for money have different priorities than someone working on their own home, which is me.And, for the record, I am an accomplished DIY'er and once owned a cabinet shop.1. These things are incredibly unforgiving. I mean, a 1/16" off means they won't work worth a damn. For DIY'ers retrofitting…

I purchased an old 9-drawer solid oak dresser, confident I would find good drawer slides to replace the cheap and sticking ones that The Saw Mill used in California. Sure enough, I was sure I found the right slides by looking at all the 5-star reviews.The challenge is that I am not a cabinet maker. I have not worked on furniture for decades, only then helping my mother restore a few antique pieces. None of those units used drawer pulls, being old fashioned all-wood construction (including the…

I am guessing for this price I should not expect more, but for some reason I did. They installed easily, and seem to be holding very well. They have 6 screws for each slide, there are at least twice that many possible places to use each screw on the slide. They do come in pairs, so you get two slides for each order. The have a soft rubber stop at the end that will hold the drawer closed when pushed. There is a definite extra effort to perform that close. They are also a bit stiff, possibly they

The Shop Fox guides look, operate and install like any of the other big manufacturer full extension slides.That is to say they install easy and work great.The key is to provide the 1/2" space on each side of drawer for the slide. Again same for all manufactures. And also 1/8" space on the top and bottom for drawer clearanceThey provide 12 screws, 3 for each section. The screws are small and I am always concerned they will not hold but I have never had a problem with a drawer coming loose.There…

I was building a non-furniture grade storage cabinet with two drawers. Usually, I just buy what I need from a big-store, almost always buying "full-extension" like these. I decided to try these and they were okay. But, I don't think I'll use them again. On the plus side, these are very beefy, especially for the short, 12 inch, pair I used. The quality was good.They are "symmetrical" so there isn't a "left" and "right" set. I'm not sure that this is a plus because

VERY Quality product. The slides were right, ie little play. Yet moved 'smoothe as butter". A 24" drawer slides can be subjected to a lot of leverage, from a physics perspective.These are rated at 100 lbs! And though my application didn't approach that limit, I have no doubts they would handle it.I used these to slide a whiteboard stand in and out for easier viewing and easy store when not in use.I'D BUY THESE AGAIN IN A HEARTBEAT!

I built an island for the kitchen and need some long drawer slides as the drawer is 30” deep and 42” wide. Installation was super simple and the slides operate so smooth, like snail snot on a greased lightning bolt lol! I plan on doing another project with a roll out shelf and I will be definitely getting another set!I highly recommend this product!

Purchased these slides sold as Used Like New. That saved me some money, but there were no screws included and there was no mention of that. I live rurally, so that was a little irritating, since I didn't have enough of the right size at home. They were also kind of dirty. These weren't exactly Used Like New. More like Slightly Used And No Screws. The product itself works well otherwise, and the discount was worth it.

The Wife wanted some custom bed stands to match a dresser that we already had. They needed to have somewhat shallow drawers. So these were a perfect match to the job. Now, we have some nice, dark oak, 2-drawer bed stands with dovetail drawers. The slides work perfectly and we saved at least $1000 on this project.

I'm very happy with these slides. I was able to replace my junky original slides that were also half an inch on each side. The provided screws worked well with the half inch wall thickness and now my drawers are firmly in place and slide easily (but not too easily) in a satisfying way. It was much harder getting my drawer faces installed than the simple act of installing these.I was a bit confused as to which length I should purchase, as there was a little extra room in my kitchen cabinet. It…

Very sturdy, but no installation guide and out of the 12 screws sent, 3 were flathead and the others were round heads. No problem, Home Depot is close by.

I didn't want to buy drawer slides at the local home improvement stores, because their drawer slide displays are usually very messy and confusing, and poorly stocked. These slides are exactly what I expected, and there was no frustration involved in getting them.If you have never had good quality, full-extension drawer slides, you're in for a treat. No more bending down, trying to see into the back of the drawer, then trying to reach into the awkward space. Full-extension slides make the entire

I purchased 8 sets of the 24" full extension drawer slides. The slides appeared to be well made (or at least comparable to other brands). When I operated them before installation I noticed they were a bit stiff, but assumed this was oil on the bearings. Once installed, they worked okay on the empty drawers. These were used on fairly wide drawers (33"), and I found that the plastic alignment end wasn't accurate enough to consistently get the drawer rail in the correct position. The…
