      they're ~60 bucks a pair for 53cm/21 inch, but it goes from like 20 per slide (40 for the pair) to 80 a pair depending where you get it from, so you're better off finding who stocks them at a decent price nearby or with reasonable delivery.
      edit : apparently someone in the comments gets them for 22 a pair, so that's probably why there's no price on the website, they're very inconsistent.

    Thanks for the overview/comparison. The simplicity and standardized adjustments in the Salice clips is an immediate selling point for me. I once tried pricing out some Blum undermount slides and I got lost in all the options and part numbers. I've built my own freaking computers since I was a kid so I'm no stranger to selecting components based on compatibility, and I still struggle to make sense of Blum's hardware catalog. I'm sure someone who lives and breathes Blum hardware installations professionally would know exactly what parts to get for what situation, but as a hobbyist/DIYer, I need something more straight-forward.

    These look interesting, i always stock about 40 boxes of blum undermounts but have used the older salice for years, they were far inferior to blum, the softclose mechanism would break sometimes and the plastic 3 way adjustment clips were absolutely horrible. Glad they stepped up their game. As of right now, i pay 18$ for blum undermount from my supplier and the salice progressa are 22$, ill try their push to open variant on my next order as again, their previous offering was absolutely horrible but far cheaper than grass or blum at the loss of the soft close feature. Time will tell, but for standard drawers if there is a 4$ savings per pair ill stick with blum, never had an issue and maybe now theyll step up their game since there is actual competition on the market

    That racking mechanism has a plastic interface gear, and if someone, for instance, falls against an open drawer, it looks like it's a weak point, and could fail easily under a "differential load".... Just a thought.

    • @HowievYT
      @HowievYT Месяц назад

      It was my first thought too. They look like a guaranteed failure point but I think the design accounts for this. Assuming the runners cannot slip sideways, the cog is only dealing with the rolling resistance forces as the runner extends or retracts, no vertical or horizontal loads. You'd hope the tolerances in the runners were fairly tight.

    • @andyastrand

    Always good to have alternatives and competition - Blum is pretty dominant in many markets from what I gather.
    I do wonder about the stabilizer, or rather lack of that option from Salice though: In our kitchen we have a few 1m wide, 30cm deep drawers, and without the stabilizer trying to pull the drawer open on a corner (or close to one) would simply wedge it against the carcass. Would the Salice slides be so stiff sideways that they really don't need that stabilizer?
    BTW that stabilizer has nothing(*) to do with push open; it's just to stop wide, short drawers like ours to "twist" when pulled or pushed by the corners. *: There's a separate synchronizer for push open where the stabilizer is not needed that functions the same as Salice's by linking the mechanisms. I'm assuming that if the stabilizer is installed the synchronizer is not needed.

    • @DavidSzpiech
      @DavidSzpiech 4 месяца назад

      The synchronization feature in the Salice slides makes the stabilizer bar unnecessary. I saw a video where a guy put his 150 lb wife inside a drawer shut it and pushed to open it was amazing.

    • @koma-k
      @koma-k 4 месяца назад

      @@DavidSzpiech that example doesn't say anything about how rigid it is in "extreme" cases like mine though: Would you be able to push it closed *by the corner* if the drawer was 1m wide and only 30cm deep, or would it twist enough to wedge itself against the carcass like the Blum does? The lack of that stabilizer means one of two things: Either the slides themselves are so extremely rigid they won't let the drawer twist, or they haven't had too many cases like mine. It could be interesting to test...

    Stabilization and synchronization are 2 things. All drawers, no matter which brand, requires ideally a stabilizer for drawer over 36 inches wide. 2nd thing you must not, Blum runners are tested to 100K opening/closing cycles. Public information must be handled with care ;-)

So far the best I’m finding for Salice is roughly $240 before taxes for 6 pairs of slides and clips.

    Good timing. I was just looking at drawer slides for my miter station build. Not really planning on undermounts for this project though but this was still very good information. Side note, that loose flap of veneer on your miter station drawer is awfully distracting! I'm sure you have the glue in that shop to get that thing fixed!

    Yeah good luck with those. I ordered 12 pairs of Salice Futura (undermount push-to-open) and they came all jacked up from shipping. Salice will pack heavy slides in a box that is too big for the specific product and they throw in about 4ft of craft paper as if its going to keep things from banging around during shipping. So 5 of the slides arrived jammed in such a way that the intricate plastic parts snapped off so the mechanisms don't work at all. It's mind boggling how fragile these components are made. That tiny plastic (probably ABS) rack and pinion? Yeah say goodby to that after 2 years of use in an average kitchen. Hard pass

      Good to hear from actual experience...as a developer of consumer products, and industrial products, I recognized a pretty weak interface element, which would likely break under any heavy "differential" load, like somebody falling against the drawer, of something like some drawer content jamming on one side....

    It’s never a good sign when you go to the website and, in order to find out the price of a particular drawer slide, you need to fill out a questionnaire and submit before seeing what the price is … so unless you mention the direct price comparison, this is a pass from me at least …

      You would need to check the prices at your supplier. I try not to talk pricing on items that are sold by various retailers across the country. The prices are dictated so it may be more or less depending on the store. Then I have people telling me how I’m wrong because the price is X on whatever website or store they shop at.

    • @DavidSzpiech
      @DavidSzpiech 4 месяца назад

      The Futura will still be available. The Progressa is the middle of the road slide. The F-70 has been re-named and is now the Progressa Plus. The Progressa will be priced to compete with the Blum Tandem. Which I think will be about $3.00 more per pair the the Futura you are accustomed to.

    I must admit, It looks great, but I have some doubts, since everything is made cheap these days, so there is a high chance of failure. The old construction is full metal and simple, so it can last longer. While this new design is more complicated, means it gives more space for errors. Also, the use of plastic parts in critical elements is very dangerous in the long term.
