Review on 16 Inch Soft Close Ball Bearing Drawer Slides - 1 Pair Of Nickel Finish Side Mount Slides Home Hardware Accessories, Full Extensions 3 Fold by Dean Locke

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I install cabinets for a living.

These are absolutely awful drawer slides!1* They are so hard to open. When you open a drawer you shouldn't have to use force.2* They don't glide smoothly. When you open or close a *weighted* drawer slide. The operation should be almost effortless.3* The soft close mechanism requires the user to throw the drawer to engage the soft close feature. Again, this should require minimal effort.4* Every drawer i installed, being the drawer box perfectly square and level in the carcass was binding.I opted for the PROMARK drawer slides, also available on Walmart. Although they don't have the soft close feature that I wanted, they have ZERO issues. Glide smoothly, open easily.DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THESE DRAWER SLIDES!

Pros
  • ★Made from high-grade cold rolled steel, zinc plated, steel construction ball bearing full extension slides are rated for heavy-duty use(loads up to 100 lbs)
Cons
  • The nickel finish may not be suitable for high-traffic areas, as it may wear down quickly
