Slide okay but bracket needs improvement

I bought the 16” black slider for use with a 30”x12” MDF keyboard drawer. The package arrived with all hardware and included an extra bag of silver screws along with the necessary black screws.The slides showed no obvious mechanical flaw and operated smoothly. It qualified for the advertised heavy duty label. However, the final assembly as a whole did not due to some lateral flex even when all parts were firmly attached. The lack of rigidity is partly due to the slide mechanism being in two…

Pros
  • Good, for their intended mounting but made them work for my keyboard.
Cons
  • Poor quality materials used in construction

I had shelves I made and never used, perfect fit for this set of rails. I recently got a fancy push a button to elevate a desk to insane heights. but it had the motor rail mechanism about 11 inches in. I tried one of those fancy swivel adjustable keyboard mounts, but since I had the above issue, I mounted the track 90° from recommended design, and it just bounces a lot when typing.got these rails (12"), absolutely perfect fit. mounted tray on rails, marked where the screws would go. drilled…

  • 4.EASILY TO INSTALL: It takes only a few minutes to install the slides. Max Capacity: up to 40 lbs. Package includes: mounting brackets X 4, small screws X 4, wood screws X 12.
Cons
  • Drawer doesn't fit flush with cabinet

Design is OK, not Excellent

Packaging was good to protect product. Definitely had sufficient variety of screws to meet your wood depth needs, I was impressed by the high number of wood and metal screws. This did not get a 5 because only the left rail has a stop, that is, when extending the keyboard tray I used this for, it will overextend if you pull out from the right side without a rail stop (no, I didn't try to figure out how to add one). There are no instructions, but if you order a set of slide rails all by itself…

Pros
  • Used 14" version to make a piano keyboard desk for daughter's room.
Cons
  • They feel cheap, and they were...

Sure, its heavy duty, but it has frustrating flaws

When I first took these out of the box I was pleased at how heavy duty they are and they seemed to have a smooth glide. Then I went about installing them.First of all, the description says they take just a few minutes to install, not at all true in my case. If you can turn your project upside down, which I could not, you'll be struggling to hold it up while aligning and mounting the darn thing. I eventually tore apart a cardboard box and used it as a template, but it was still a struggle. I was

Pros
  • Little difficult to install, but has worked great since.
Cons
  • Instructions are difficult to follow

The quality seems ok but check the size carefully

I bought the 14" set but it only gives you 9.65" clearance from the edge of the table. This will not work if you're buying this as a synthesizer tray, unless your synth is less than 9.65" deep (which would be pretty small). Totally my fault because flipping through the images in the product page, it clearly shows this. That said, the 14" measurement is a completely useless value that holds little meaning, so read the specs carefully and look at the pics. Even the 18" only provides 10.63" of…

Pros
  • Great product! Strong and easy to use... screws included.
Cons
  • Drawer has a tendency to detach from rails

Wanted to like this product

The mounting bracket on one of the 18 inch slides had a stripped screw hole which rendered the product unusable without modification. I was forced to ream the threads out and use a bolt and nut to make the attachment. The bearings in the glides were also marginal, and resulted in rough operation. I wanted to like the product because the company was very responsive to questions prior to purchase. Although I kept and used the product I would not order again.

Pros
  • ‎Black
Cons
  • Rails are not as durable as advertised

pieces do not disconnect so plan your workspace accordingly

I only gave it 3 stars because of its limited use. I was going to use it for drawer, as it says that's what I can be used for, however its limited. I have a tight space and since you can't disassemble the slides you can't reach in there to get a screwdriver. Seems like a decent product and I'll keep it for future use, but not for the project where I really needed it.

Pros
  • They are perfect for both commercial and residential use
Cons
  • Drawer is noisy when in use

Heavy Duty Glides - my new review

I periodically have to replace the keyboard slide guides. This set appears to be heavier made. Time will tell. The glides attached to the desk and the drawer very nicely. Still involves laying and working upside down to mount the drawer.but went pretty smooth and it's working very nicely.

Pros
  • Very satisfied, it fit perfectly for my project.
Cons
  • Not suitable for heavy use

Bad quality good for me

Very poor quality, I had to do my best to align the supports, couldn't add screws in the bottom because of this misalignment. I had also to remove the bulky rivet at the front end and use a screw attached to the table.This device was expensive, I should have bought a cheaper option available in Walmart.

Pros
  • These slides are carefully crafted from high-quality materials, ensuring durability and longevity
Cons
  • Drawer is prone to dislodging

Does the job, but flimsy.

The brackets are really wobbly and flimsy. pulling the tray in and out sometimes feels like I've attached it with jell-o, and it doesn't have a good latching mechanic when it's extended. Does the job, though, and doesn't feel risky with downward force. Just side-to-side. Will do as a temporary fix while I take the time to find a better, more permanent solution.

Pros
  • The ball bearing technology helps prevent unwanted noise or disturbance during use
Cons
  • Drawer is too difficult to open and close for some users

Smooth and Strong in my review

Got these to install a custom keyboard shelf to pull out on my home office desk and they work as intended. Hold well and slide smoothly. Would buy again if I built again.

Pros
  • Great
Cons
  • Rails are too narrow for some cabinets

keyboard shelf for my opinion

I used these to install a 36" wide shelf under my desk for a midi-controller. Thanks for attention. No problems, no complaints.

Pros
  • Simple n easy to replace an older broken set of rails.
Cons
  • Drawer slide is not smooth

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Brackets are flimsy, no stop but still good product.

This slide arrived packed well and was easy to install. My old slide had fallen apart and was no longer usable.The portion that attaches to the keyboard drawer was perfect and fit exact. Then when I was driving the screw to hold the first bracket to the bottom of the desk, it hit the end and twisted the 'L' bracket so bad I had to take it back apart to straighten it. Then I assembled it to the desk by pre-drilling a small pilot hole and using a hand screwdriver.The biggest complaint is that…

Pros
  • Ball bearing technology ensures a smooth and effortless glide, even with heavy usage
Cons
  • Drawer is not stable when extended

good solution: my feedback

I have search high and low for a keyboard tray that holds both of my keyboards. this made it so I could have a custom width for a budget solution! 2 keyboards, 2 mice. Nice

Pros
  • Hardware
Cons
  • Rails are prone to rust and corrosion

Sturdy and Smooth in my review

Since this is an undermount slide, installation will take a bit of skill and patience. But once installed, it's very sturdy and slides smoothly. They've included a generous amount of good quality screws.

Pros
  • These slides are compatible with a range of keyboard sizes and styles
Cons
  • Drawer doesn't close all the way

Smooth operation, sturdy and customizable for your situation

I had been searching for DIY keyboard drawers for a couple of weeks and decided on this Heavy Duty keyboard Drawer Tray. Installation was a breeze and you can use whatever you wish to make the base and front of the drawer. I had to match two side drawers since this is going into an organ console, but I needed a keyboard during part of the programming and customization. My drawer front is also on a hinge so it drops down when open. Too many other "systems" are either outrageously expensive…

Pros
  • FRMSAET is a trusted brand known for producing high-quality and reliable hardware products
Cons
  • Drawer is difficult to open and close with one hand

Needs better product description

I needed a surface that would extend about 16 from under a desk, so I purchased the 18 inch version of these slides thinking that would be enough. After receiving them today I was very disappointed to find that the travel is only about 10 inches, meaning if I didn't want part of the tray to protrude from under the table while full closed, I would get a surface about 10 inches deep when fully extended. The only potential indication of this limitation is an image with closed and extended…

Pros
  • Heavy duty construction ensures that these slides can handle even the weightiest of keyboard setups
Cons
  • Drawer is not as smooth as advertised

Well made slide out tray for keyboard.

Well made product. Comes with everything to attach under a table for Keyboard tray. Combine with many of 14inch Ikea Besta shelves to make a pull out keyboard tray for your table.

Pros
  • These slides are versatile and can be used on a wide range of furniture pieces
Cons
  • Drawer slide is prone to breaking

The 12 inch version can only extend 10 inches

This can be critical if you are using it for a Microsoft Natural Ergonomic keyboard which is just over 10 inches front to back. The mounting bracket placed as far forward as possible only makes 10 inches available in front of the desk. The quality looks good so I ordered a 16 inch version, this should work fine

Pros
  • The FRMSAET Heavy Duty Ball Bearing Keyboard Drawer Slides provide a sturdy and reliable solution for cabinet and furniture hardware
Cons
  • Drawer is not easy to clean
