Conversion Kit - Standard Kitchen Base Cabinet

Product is fine--works as intended and easy install. I prefer the old bracket design which is reusable if removed from the cabinet--unlike this current barbed peg design, which breaks apart if removed from the mounting holes in the cabinet. But the main surprise was the almost ridiculous packaging. The pair of slides were just loose inside of a huge, empty box. No air pack, no bubble wrap, no crumpled paper--heck not even a rubber band to keep the two painted slides from banging into each other during transit. Which maybe would be fine if they were in a carton that was properly sized.

Perfect fit to existing pre drilled holes in my Merillat kitchen cabinets. Plastic rear clip pops right in and one or two screws to the front and that's it.

My cabinets were new in 1992. Several are still in perfect working order. I've found the original design to be good if the drawers and sliders are not overloaded. I overloaded a few over the years and they need replacing. The Good: product. Great improvements over the original design; particularly the plastic mounts at the back of the cabinet. Very good quality, fit and finish. Thank you! The Bad: shipping. The brackets were shipped to me in a 12" x 24" x 2" box without any packing materials. They had been banging around in the box; several mounts had separated from the brackets. There was little to no care, effort or attention to packaging for shipping. None! The Unexpected: poor digital experience. It took one full week and a day from date of order for the items to be shipped, which is not a typical (21st Century) experience given all the online purchasing being done these days. It may be because Merillat internet purchases do not represent a significant sales channel for them.

These items were the right length and very easy to install a great company to deal with easy to order your parts on line

I wouldn't have needed replacement drawer guides if Merillat had made a durable product to begin with. They should provide replacements at no charge like they used to. I am thankful that these are relatively easy to replace, so I gave them 3 stars..

It worked well but was about 1/4 inch shorter than the original. Maybe I ordered the wrong part but I don't think so. I was able to make it work. The cabinets have been in my house for at least twenty years so I don't expect everything to be perfect this far down the road.

I gave it 4 stars because the original design was changed and I had to buy the replacement in a set of 2, which included brackets and glide rails, when I only needed a bracket. That being said, the new bracket fit in the original hole and my husband had it back together in a matter of minutes. It was kind of pricey considering the replacement parts were $15 plus $5 shipping +tax.

Even though our cabinet is 25+ years old, this part fit perfectly.

The new guide rails fit nicely in place of the old ones. However, taking out the broken brackets at the end of the old rails was very problematic. They couldn't be pried out easily.
