A customer in Portland pointed out my drawer slides were too loud for a nursery.

They said the quiet-close ones I used still had a noticeable 'thump' that would wake a baby, so I switched to a specific soft-close model with a slower, gentler final inch of travel, and now I ask about room use for every built-in... what's your go-to hardware for ultra-quiet applications?

What brand of soft-close slides did you end up using for that nursery job?

Did you go with the full extension ones or just the regular soft close?

Honestly why does it even matter? They're just drawer slides for a baby's room. Tbh the kid won't know the difference between full extension and regular soft close. As long as the drawers don't fall out, it's fine. People get way too into the tiny details on this stuff.
