15 of 15 people found the following review helpful Works great! Installation instructions are lousy., This review is from: Waxman 4708995N 1-Inch Swivel Round Furniture Glides, Oatmeal (Tools & Home Improvement) I have installed these on twelve different chairs, so I am clearly happy with how they work. After years of "stick ons" and other types of chair feet, these do a great job of keeping my wood and marble floors blemish free.My only issue is that the instructions for installation are lousy. They read: - Drill a small pilot hole in the chair leg - Gently tap the glide into the leg This is both vague and misleading, which can lead you to ruining one of the glides. Pilot hole: If you drill too small of a hole, the nail binds in the hole and bends. If you drill too big of hole, the nail doesn't grab and the glide falls out if you pick up the chair.

I am very anal that way. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful Spot on!, By PM (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Waxman 4708995N 1-Inch Swivel Round Furniture Glides, Oatmeal (Tools & Home Improvement) We've got hardwood floors in our kitchen and have tried the little stick-on pads, only to have them fall off. These offer the same amount of protection, and are not going anywhere! I just ordered 3 more sets to use on the rest of my diningroom chairs. |
