Metal. I put this together myself pretty easily. Time consuming, but the directions are great.

Metal on wood. I agree with previous answer. I also put it together and it was quite easy.

Wood on wood. It's a very nice piece and very heavy. The drawers do have stops on them so they won't come all the way out while pulling them open.

The top is a metal sheet over a wire frame and the drawer is made of a rigid wire mesh with a wire frame . The actual metal I do not know. It is quite rigid though.

The side behind the file drawer is thin finished particle board. It is tacked on with small nails. Not too noticeable. Looks good.

I would guess particle board with wood-grain laminate cover. It uses cam locks like Sauder furniture. Drawer guides are metal and plastic. The drawer bottoms are basically coated cardboard. I will say that I've used it for over a year now (holding office supplies and computer parts and tools) with no problem, it's help up well. I chose not to use the casters with it, so it's good and stable just setting on my carpet. See my review for more information.

If you are looking for a bottom mounted slide this is not the one, these are pairs that are mounted on the sides of the drawer. I would suggest: Slide, Center Mount, Drawer Length 12-5/8"-14-1/2", Depth 15"-16-1/2", Extension - 10-1/2" by Accuride

Each slide splits into two pieces for mounting. One piece screws to the cabinet side wall and the other screws to the drawer. You do this for the right hand slide and for the left hand slide. When done, the slides are reconnected by sliding the drawer into position along the cabinet slide halfs. I did not use any mounting hardware. Just the provided screws.

A 15" slide could be made to work. You will have to add a 1" spacer to the back of the drawer, this assuming there is enough depth to the cabinet itself. You also need to be sure there is a half inch from the bottom of the drawer sides to the underside of the drawer bottom.

Hi. I have a desk made mostly of particle board. The particle is thicker on top but not real wood. The drawer has worked really well for me. It is sturdy and secure. I would give it a try.

The slides can be attached to a shelf inside the cabinet to support the drawer that slides out. This requires side clearance of about 3/4 inch on each side if you have an existing drawer or if you build a new one.

The 'body' of the slide is the larger of the two pieces, that is what attaches into the cabinet. It houses the ball bearings and a retainer cage to keep the bearings in place.The smaller 'Rail' mounts to your drawer (or shelf) depending on application. When drawer is in the open position there are release buttons on the side of the rails so drawer can be removed.

You need screw drivers and a hammer to get the sliders on for the drawers. That is it. It is not complicated, the only decision you need to make is which side you want the drawers on. I put it together by myself and took about an hour or so. Not too difficult!

There is one metal glider running the center of each drawer. The edges of each drawer slide on plastic. Honestly, it's not that smooth, but for the price, I don't believe you can expect much more.

Each of these drawer slides have two parts. One part is attached to the cabinet with supplied screws and the other part is attached to the drawer with supplied screws. Two wheels are used to slide the drawers simply and effectively. Nice slides that come out about 10 inches from the cabinet, maybe a little more.

The drawer slides on wooden rails located underneath on each side. About as basic as you can get so it wobbles about what you'd expect. No stops so it will come completely out if you pull it far enough. It's really not designed for daily use so don't count on it lasting.

This is a single rail system that goes in the middle of the drawer underneath and has two fixed nylon rollers that the drawer slides on.

I would assume Harbor Freight has slides as do the big box stores such as Lowes, Home Depot, Menards and the wood worker's stores such as Rockler and Woodcraft. We have a Woodcraft here but not a Rockler. The folks at Woodcraft here are super helpful and can make sure you have the right item for your task. Good luck and Merry Christmas. Joe
