Ball bearing slides pretty much make it a moot point.


That would be my first choice. My bathroom vanities are made by
Bertch and use self closing glides. Give the drawer a push and it
closes gently. Sure, they cost a bit more but I figure I'm worth it.


Ditto that. Projects like this take time and money. Saving a little
money on slides doesn't seem to make much sense, IMO. I really like
the bottom-mount Blum slides for this application.

Word of caution - don't store your stash of slides in an open-top
plastic container in the basement under a leaking toilet. :-(
