For me I had several hundred pairs of accurides I have been using up I got dirt cheap. In the past I have ordered KVs but I dont like there sliding smoothness.
So I guess im looking for side mounts that slide well and pricing is low.I think I saw Accuride 20s for like 13 yesterday on drawer slide . com or something like that.
WW Hardware only offers undermount blums and Kvs so that wont work.
I understand theres a few other brands that I havent tried that people are finding on amazon and such , I dont remember names or sliding quality.

Thanks

I use the WW Hardware generic side mount ball bearing slides, with good results. From the Grand Rapids, Michigan address on the cartons, I would bet they are make by or for KV.

I have been buying Bee Slide from Louis and Company. They are lower cost than the basic accuride or and I think they are smoother. As far as I know they don't make all the fancy closing mechanisms, just the KV8400 equivalent.

Home Depot or Lowes. They work just fine for my projects.

I'm getting most of my hardware from A&H Turf. I have found they have the best prices for Blum hardware, but they seem pretty competitive on everything.

I've always used WWHardware but one time I needed just one in a pinch so I went off to my local Rockler to bend over for an Accuride. I found they now have their own line of slides called "Topslides (http://www.rockler.com/articles/display_article.cfm?story_id=178)". They're a little cheaper than Accuride and I found them to work every bit as good if not better. Right now they're offering free shipping as well. Give them a try.

www.cshardware.com (http://www.cshardware.com) -- got some hettich quattro (FWW best value) undermount slides for cheaper than anywhere else.
