Be careful what you buy, sliders or the stickum casters!! The sliders don't have the adhesive stickum.


I beg to differ:

Well, I'll concur. As I typed, I used the wrong term.

Seems the stores have sliders and gliders, the gliders being the adhesive pads. I knew there was two similar items and I've made the mistake (when in a rush) of buying sliders, when I wanted adhesive gliders. It was this mistake I was conveying to you.

I've used the term casters before, though, when informing customers of the replacing of their furniture's pads.


Did they get a confused look on their face? ;-)

I did some searching and the only times I can find where "casters" and "pads"
are used in conjunction with each other is when they talk about those quick
release caster pads that make swapping out caster (wheel) assemblies easier..
