Which slide holds more weight?

The Knape & Vogt, at 75 lbs versus 35 lbs for the Hickory. For pots, tools or bulk supplies, take the Knape & Vogt.

Do both open the drawer fully?

No. The Knape & Vogt is full extension; the Hickory is 3/4 extension, so the back of the drawer stays inside the cabinet.

Is the Hickory worth it for a light drawer?

Yes. At $18.19 at Home Depot as of November 7, 2026, it is about $29 less than the Knape & Vogt and fine for a drawer under 35 lbs.

Which is easier to install?

The Hickory ships with mounting hardware, instructions and a back-wall bracket for cabinets without a center rail. The Knape & Vogt listing does not state what is included.

The Knape & Vogt's higher rating and full-extension ball-bearing design suit heavier, more frequent use. The Hickory is built for light-duty cabinet drawers.

Will the Hickory fit my 22 in cabinet opening?

The product is named as a 22 in slide, but its spec sheet lists a 14 in slide length and a 16 in travel figure. Measure your opening and confirm the length before ordering.
