I ordered seven of the "KV Economical Full Extension Drawer Slide 18" 100lb Load Rating" for a custom birch, maple, oak walk-in closet I recently built. I called Woodworkers Hardware with some questions and the guy who answered was very helpful and knowledgeable about the product. I was concerned the slide would be noisy because the price was so cheap. The slides came in a VERY securely sealed\enforced box with detailed packing and order\return information. I couldn't believe the weight and thought, "These don't feel cheap at all".

I was pleasantly shocked to discover the slides have a virtually silent movement. These are very well made, super sturdy (heavy), quality feeling slides. They do not feel cheap by any means. In a store I would expect to pay $25 per pair. The full extension slide action is super smooth. I'm so pleased I want to purchase more! I can't believe such a nice slide costs so little.

Anyway, you'd be insane not to purchase these slides for cabinet drawers.

The same drawer slides at my local hardware store retails for $15 per pair. These slides were great and work wonderfully. I will definitely be using this product again in the future.

My cabinet supplier wanted 50 dollars a drawer upcharge for full extension glides. These were 6 bucks and are strong as can be. I needed a few extra and bought them locally at almost 20 dollars each for the same thing. The more weight you put in the drawer, the smoother they slide.

This is a very high quality product right out of the box. Heavy gauge steel and very smooth gliding action. I can't wait to install the first set. The price for this quality product is more than worth it. I looked locally for several drawer slides before checking Amazon and finding these gems. Less than half the price for double the quality of what I was able to find!!!

I have been building custom cabinetry for well ver 30 years. I have tried and used so many different slides. I started using these back in in 2001. I tried them fist on my own built-in in my own home. Last thing I needed was a a component failure in a clients home. These are still working just fine and get used every day. One set of drawers in the unit each hold 300 CD's in cases. If I had to guess a conservative guess, that's probably about 50 pounds, plus the drawer and dividers themselves, adding maybe another 15 pounds. They work just fine. All of the wiring for the entertainment system is hidden behind the unit. Every once in a while I have to remove the drawers to access the wires. I have done that maybe a dozen or so times in the ten years the unit's been there. Again, no problem. Even without emptying the drawers.

They are installed in my kitchen as well for the pots and pans pull-outs. Still working just fine. They are now in countless homes and I have not had on customer complaint ever. I have long since stopped buying the $15, 20, 30 slides.

The chest of drawers isn't quite finished yet but I really do like the glides. Easy to install and they are smooth as glass. They are not the kind of guide that you can just give a little pull or push and they go in or out on their own. You have to pull them out and push them closed. Ideal for kids drawers because there will be no slamming the drawer in or banging the drawer out. Delivery was fast and the order correct. For the price I'm really pleased.

These slides are very well built. For the price you can't go wrong. I had no difficulty getting these lined up. The easiest way to install these is to measure from the center of the slide. Mark a centerline on your cabinet and on your drawer. Drill pilot holes for your screws right on the centerlines, and everything will line right up. The fact that these slides aren't "handed" didn't really effect my installation.

Wow, wow, and wow! I am so very pleased with Woodworker's Hardware, their service, and their product. I order 22 sets of these drawer slides (14 - 22" and 8 - 18"). Compared to the one set of drawer slides I purchased locally from a B&M, these are pretty much just as good and LESS THAN HALF PRICE! So I saved $170 buying them here on Amazon. Only two sellers had these slides. The OTHER seller's shipping terms were absolutely insane (costing almost the same amount as the merchandise). However, Woodworker's HW's terms were absolutely incredible. I feel like I found the steal of a lifetime. My project came out wonderful and I am so thankful!

Installed and replace the cheap pulley sliders that came with my keyboard tray. These are much nicer and more durable.
