Because the forks/spoons are stacked, there is some movement. Not nearly as much as standard plastic organizers! The organizer I purchased had slits for knives at the bottom, which keeps them perfectly in place. I am very happy with the product.

Yes, this liner holds your flatware in place with an additional protective cover.

yes this works nicely. I have it in a small drawer for my silver. I am satisfied with it.

My experience is that the silverware does slide around a bit when the drawer is opened or closed. I have not, though, experienced any scratches.

No, it kind of elevated between the slots and they slide back and forth. I use it for my Old Country roses flatware so I don't open the drawer very much, but when I do they're all kind of float around and are kind of a mess. I guess it would depend on how wide the base of your silverware is.

The pieces are held so tightly I don't see how they would slide around. Depending on the size of the drawer the whole tray might move but the pieces themselves would be secure. If the tray slides double sided sticky tape or some kind of sticky material should keep it in place.

The forks and spoons can definitely slip around a bit, especially when fully stacked. They're secure at the neck but not at the handles. The knives stay secure because they're not stacked. If you are looking to completely prevent the pieces from touching each other really the only way to go would be individual felt sleeves that hold up to five pieces (a full place setting) each and then roll up for storage. I use these for some other flatware that I don't use as frequently (as they're a bit less easy to access than a tray).

I use my drawer liner for sterling silver that is not used daily, but is frequently used (weekly or more). I think I am more careful with the silver rather than the flatware in another drawer, but the liner holds the pieces and I don't think scratching is an issue.

No, not at all. I keep a patch of felt in the bottom to help protect the container, but the flatware stays nicer than it would rattling around in a drawer. Love the caddy!

Sorry I did not respond to your question earlier, just got back from vacation. Hope you have figured out how to place the drawers. I purchased the kit as a gift and don't really know how they were placed in tray. I can check with the person I gave it to and see what she says if you wanted me to?

No, but we use our sliders with all sorts of lids, Calphalon classic stainless products, Revere ware, etc, and have had absolutely no problems with scratching of any kind. We have 5 different sliders, and they are GREAT. I highly recommend them. We have this one particular slider you are considering, plus others that are combo; pans with lid storage as one unit. Do yourself a favor, get the product... You will most likely want more. You do loose a bit of cupboard space, like if you have two stacked sets, side-by-side in a bottom cupboard like we do on each side of our range, but we would not have it any other way now.

I've been using them for a month and I don't see a single scratch mark from silverware. I use 18/10 flatware though. Perhaps the softer flatware would make marks.

JNO,The trays are held on with 2 thumb screws on the back side. These can be loosened up to allow you to get underneath the tray.Than you!

It does keeps my silver from tarnishing. I used to keep my flatware in a chest that was supposed to keep everything shiny. It didn't work. Now I keep it in these cloths and it stays nice.

a great container for storage of the cups on each corner on the bottom of the drawer is a small round rubber foot will not scratch surface. I put my drawer on a glass cutting surface for support

No, it just sits on top of the collection tray, but I have not had it slip around. I do place it on a flat hard surface on a silicone mat so the entire unit stays put while I'm slicing.

The T-Square will slide, but the neck is not touching the surface of the table as the "head" of the T-square is held about 1/4" away from it. Even without the trays, the tray holding clips hold it away. HOWEVER, I use the trays only on the left side and removed the clips" on the right side with a Phillips screw driver. Problem solved in about 2 minutes or less. You could even do so on both sides if you wanted to remove all the tray clips.

Hi I have had mine over a year and use it everyday. I never have to adjust it and it stays firmly in place. I love this gadget. Without it I'm not sure where I would hand my dishcloth out of site. Perfect!

No. But its something I am fine with. Sometimes I scoot my chair on wheels, too far forward, and the drawer closes a little; have to pull back out. My problem was leaning to hard on the drawer over the years, broke the plastic screw slots off, where it became annoyingly loose.

Seriously? I'm not sure what would cause a person to ask this question. What damage could it possibly do? It's well made with sturdy material that holds your silverware. Mine is in my handmade cabinets. Hasn't damaged a thing. Put an anti slip mat under it if your so concerned.

i had that problem for a while but just kept raising the tray and pulling and it would come out, or jockey it back and forth. i no longer have the problem though. make sure it is on a flat surface.

The drawers do not have metal glides or even those carved in slots on the side, so I guess the answer would be no. What they do have is a little wooden slat on both sides of the unit and under the drawers to hold them in place and a raised lip at the back of the drawer to keep them from falling out if you pull the drawer out too far. I still love my jewelry box after more than a year though and the drawers slide easily and I've never had one fall out - even when my cat jumps in it. She can't resist an open drawer for some reason.

This plastic piece mounts to my drawer (in the back). Then this plastic piece slides over a center rail on the table portion - it keeps the drawer from moving side to side.

Slip out, no, that doesn't happen unless you put forks into the silverware holder tines down. Same for very thin-bladed knives. They both will slip thru the wire cage a bit. My holder is hooked to the side of the unit, not to the back as in the photo. So whatever slips a bit thru the cage just hangs in the air, not touching anything.
