Easy to Install. Work Very Well. A Good Value
I used these for 1.5" square wood table legs on a laundry table to help set it even with the adjacent surface. I was happy with the ease of installation and size..Easy to install. It doesnt come with instructions but the Amazon webpage has all the information youll need. The webpage states to use a 11/32 drill. I found that the insert would not fit easily in a 11/32 hole and I added a bit of chamfer at the top and then the insert easily tapped in and held securely. For some reason one of the feet would no screw in easily while the others had no resistance at all. A really good value.

Does the Job!
Put these on metal kitchen stool that has built in rubber feet. The stool now glides across the floor easily, smooth, and quietly. They included inserts if you need them (Nice). Only took a few minutes to install. They are sturdy, stable, and work great. No more screeching across the stone tile floors!

Fit my Levity Scandinavian chairs perfectly.
I needed these for my new Levity Scandinavian chairs so that they would glide more smoothly across the hardwood floors. Threading and length were perfect, very easy to install.

Perfect for my new floors.
The media could not be loaded. These worked great on my new stools for my island. They came with a hard plastic leveler. This would’ve scratched my new floors or worn out faster. The felt level is perfect. I don’t have to worry about scratching my floors and they level my chairs out. Love them!

Prevents damage to the floor.
Protects your floors. We purchased an antique curio cabinet that originally had small wooden wheel casters installed, these were no longer available. The four legs had the original steel sockets for the casters and removal could damage the wooden legs, something had to take their place. These new furniture glides have threaded mounting shafts slightly smaller than the original caster stems therefore required winding duct tape around the shaft to stabilize the glides within the steel sockets.Worked as well as expected and won't damage the wood floors.

Great product, but wrong pre-drill size called out for inserts
This is a great product, but the instructions call for drilling a 11/32 inch diameter pilot hole for the plastic inserts. 11/32 inch drilled holes are too small for the inserts to fit into. The CORRECT size hole is 23/64 inch diameter (somewhat of an odd size).

So far, so good! (Updated)
Update 5-16-18: It's been a about 4-5 months now, and my chair is losing 2 of the felts. I eat 2 meals a day in that chair, so in once, out once, and that's it - twice a day. I knew they wouldn't last forever, but I was hoping for longer than this. My floor is smooth, 1 foot square tiles, with rounded edges to a 1/4" grout line, that's about 10 yrs old, so well worn in. Nothing really to catch the felts on, so no reason for them to come off so soon, IMHO. These didn't last any longer than the stick on felts, but they cost a lot more, and made me drill huge holes in the legs of my chairs. Not good. Knocking off a star for that.---------- Original Review: --------------------So far, so good!Pros:* Easily enough installed. Drill hole, insert plug, screw in base, attach felt pads.* Adjustable screw lengths allows for leveling uneven chairs, just by unscrewing the short leg a bit more. Helpful side benefit!* The screw base has a lip, which the felt pads sit inside, stopping them from sliding off, as happens when you just add the felt to the legs normally.* Feels sturdy. 200+ lb folks have sat in these chairs, & no issues, so far. (Only used them for about 2-3 weeks, so time will tell.)* The included felt pads are nice & thick, so they should last a long time. A light gray color doesn't show dirt so much. They slide over the tiles quite well.Cons:* Drill bit size is a pain to find. Why in the heck they chose to use a drill bit size that is so uncommon is beyond me. I have a TON of drill bit sets, & had to go out to a 30 yr old set to even find that specific drill bit. That is just stupid.* Most of this is plastic, so the "so far" comments are a real concern, over time.* Drill bit required is pretty substantial, so you need to be using fairly thick & sturdy legs, or risk undermining them.* These do not pivot, so there is no room for error, beyond the flexibility of the felt pads. My legs are slightly angled in as they rise, so you have to be sure the drill goes in straight to the floor - not the angle of the legs, so it sits flat when you stand it up. (I put tape on my drill bit, to be sure I didn't go in too deep).Overall, I love this for now, & if it holds up, Yay! I'll have to buy replacement felts over time, but they're pretty thick, & hopefully will not rip out any time soon. Side note - these do raise the height of the chairs a bit, so if you're sitting low, that's a benefit, but if you're already barely clearing the table, this is going to raise you up 1/3-1/2" minimum. Sounds like nothing, but we felt it, when we sat down the first time.
