hi!

I have to ask something again - this time it's about the drawers that are slightly angled at the front.

I believe that mine are relatively hard to open. Is there a way to adjust them or will they become easier to use over time?

Hello, take out the drawer and check if the rails move smoothly. If they do not, they are not in good condition.

hi!

well, what is smooth-running. I’ll have to compare again at Ikea on site and take a slider with me on site!

Thanks otherwise.

Hi
Well, what is smooth-running is probably the opposite of what you call stiff. The drawers should be about as smooth-running as, for example, your kitchen drawers.
A light push should be enough for the drawer to roll back, and silently at that. If not, I would exchange it; drawers that catch are a nightmare.

Best regards

hi!

thanks - then I know that I have to expand these again.

What a nuisance!

Are there multiple drawers? Then it is rather unlikely that all the runners are not in order. Therefore, the question is whether the smoothness with the drawer is different from that of the runners alone.
