Maybe it's me but seems like you have push the drawer almost closed before the soft close action. Wish they activated sooner.

These sliders install easy and work smoothly.

Well made. The soft close is a necessity. Getting this properly installed needs some care.

Strong, well made product.

I put maybe a 20 pound drawer on this assuming that it could handle that weight. When i closed it, it was a little too much force. Both mechanisms broke. Pretty cheap plastic.

I'm using these to replace kitchen cabinet slides which were new in 1997. Those didn't have soft close nor do they have full extension. The great thing about these is they work in those older cabinets and have full open. I previously used Blum under drawer slides which are fabulous but these 1997 cabinet drawers have zero clearance between the side bottoms and the frame. The LONTAN are the best option I could find.As other reviewers state, the instructions leave a lot to your imagination. After installing 3 drawers, I started to get the hang of it. The Jig's you can buy online don't help. I found that in cabinetry, the tolerances are VERY high (if you care about how things look). So, the Jig's leave too much slop to be useful.But my main reason for 3 stars is the screws. LONTAN recommends using a Pozidriv 2 screwdriver. After stripping and breaking several screws using a standard phillips 2, bought the PZ2 bits but they were much worse at stripping the screws. The metal of these screws is really cheap and soft.My cabinet frames are maple and so they are very hard. Even tho I pre-drill, I often break the head off. I've even tried cranking down the settings on my Ryobi battery powered drill to around 8 or 7 but then I have trouble getting the screw to fully seat. Breaking heads is bad - especially in the one hole which mounts the front to the frame. Once you break the screw head off there, you can no longer use that hole. There are two holes above/below that but they are much harder to use and if the screw is not 100 flat, it scrapes on the metal.Additionally, there's a plastic piece that the drawer feeds into on the end of the slide. For some reason, they have additional plastic sticking out exactly where you need to put the screw! You can "open" the slider and find another hole but this is awkward and doesn't allow you to see that you have the 1/8" clearance to the front face of the frame.As others have stated, the initial pull you need to get the drawer open takes some getting used to. My drawers have a single round knob in the middle so it's pretty easy for your hand to slip off the knob as you try to open the drawer.Finally, the main reason to have soft close is so the drawers all close. These slides need a little push to get the soft close mechanism to engage when the drawer is about 2" from the closed position. It's not unusual for the drawer to stop at the 2" and stay open. I wonder if I've made things go from drawers which are typically only 1/4" open to drawers that are 2" open!Honestly, if the screws were not complete crap, I would probably be OK with these other limitations. And if I didn't have Blum under drawer slides installed in other places, I wouldn't know that the soft close can be so much better.

Do not buy this product! These are the worst built drawer glides I've ever bought! Do yourself a favor and do not buy this product

They are a lot more difficult to install than I originally thought! The installation instructions are assuming everything is square and level. Mine cabinets were neither. What I did was use a square from the cabinet front and installed them that way. I had to read the installation instructions very carefully to understand how to mount them when the cabinet was not installed level. Once installed they work very well.

We've been into wines a while, belong to 3 winery wine clubs. Thought it was time to splurge on a decent wine fridge. We picked the Lanbo single zone unit, capacity 149 bottles (retail price $1600). Lowe's had it on sale for $1200, and was running a promo...$100 off on purchases of $999 or more. Didn't seem like we could pass this up! Upon delivery, we started to load the 12 shelves with up to 11 bottles each. Once loaded, the shelves were very hard to move, and some of them became dislodged from one side or the other of the sliders, and crashed down on the shelf below. I took a close look and found that the slides they use are Junk! After complaining a lot, I told them I was willing to keep it and fix it myself if they would make it worth my while. They did, giving me more that the cost of these sliders. The fridge is outstanding...Now! It's a crying shame they don't use sliders of this quality in the first place! I know this write-up sounds more like a wine (whine) fridge review, but we wouldn't have that fridge if it weren't for these great sliders!

These slides, like all slides are easy to install if you got the right technique. I create story sticks from1x2s. I start with the highest slide and cut the stick to match the height from the cabinet bottom to the bottom of the highest slide. Stick two to the side of your cabinet and lay the slide on them. This makes the slide level with no measuring and makes screwing them in easy. Now move the sticks to the other side and do the same. Both slides are now co-planer. Cut the stick down for the next drawer and repeat until done. Drawer width is important for a good fit. I make the drawer so they just rub against the installed slides with out hard pushing. Drawer a little to small can be shimmed out with tape. A drawer too big, trouble.

These are very good quality, soft clothes drawer slides definitely recommend them

Met expectations

Worked great

Easy to install, work Great.

Bought this set to repair an old wooden file holder box. installation was painless and we now have a working soft close on the drawer. Sweet !

There needs to be more detail explanation of how to install especially if you are an novice to installing this type of item

No installation instructions with the slides but easy enough to figure out.

incredibly heavy hinges but still operate smooth as silk. nice auto close

I used these in my RV and they stay closed while going down the road.

Easy to install and works perfectly
