do these really have the self-closing feature -are they a soft close at the end - or can one of you describe how these actually close?

The drawers do not close automatically by themselves, they are not spring loaded. The self closing feature means that after you slide the drawer closed it will not "bounce back" and stay open for an inch or so. This is accomplished by designing a slight decline in the final inch or so of the track. Gravity forces the drawer to pull slightly toward the cabinet face and forcing a full closure.

The close is not 'soft' like the action of Blum's 'Blummotion' slides. But it is a positive close. The back two to three inches of the slide's length is ramped down just a little, letting gravity act as the strategy for pulling the drawer closed at the end of its travel.

It is possible to cover both ends at the same time and if you pull them out snugly - they stay covered. It takes a little extra tug. - a little click, sometimes heard, sometimes just felt as you pull.

There is no soft-close on these hinges. Soft close hinges are typically larger. If you need these hinges and want soft-close, you could look to see if something like this will work. Blumotion Hinge Adapter, Compact w/ Spacer - 10 Pack

Yes it does fully close. I have several. Nice product and now a great price.....I paid more. :(

Thanks for your response. Do they go on quite easily? I find the ones that I am currently using will work for about 2 cm and then stop.

Hope they have. However recently within the last week the earphones have been shutting off for no apparent reason. BTW, I've owned them for about 2 months & really enjoy them. But I'm a little concern about this shutting off & hopefully it was just a one time thing.

They are more comfy then the hard tips, however my husband use's glue otherwise they fall off. Expensive but worth it I can have my peace and quite and he can hear the TV. Bad part he can't hear me. For him I am sure its a good part because I talk a lot... LOL ... you just take off the hard tips and replace with the plastic ones. Hope this helps!

I have no problem with them since they screw closed. I find them very compatable to the rack i have and will order more in the future.

Not to seem sarcastic, but the open screw ones are open and the closed are closed?The open ones have a hole in the side and you can see the screws. The closed ones are totally closed. I am not a huge audiophile, so I can't say why you would want the open ones. I think the for majority of people, the closed ones are the way to go. Also, the "hardest" thing to using these is to make sure you don't put a lot of wire over the end, it makes it hard to screw the thing closed. Good luck!

I bought 50 sets and all of them were easily self-closing. Are you sure you ordered the self-closing style? There is one that LOOKS just like this one and isn't self-closing, although I don't know why anyone would want it. Other than that, they may have sent you the wrong thing.

No they don't. There's an opening in the back that overlaps (somewhat). I think they'd be much better with just the normal end opening. They didn't stay on my pillows and you can only use one side - no flipping over with these!!

the ones I purchased do NOT turn off automatically = which is why I bought them. I couldn't find any like them anywhere locally and both myself and my pet needed something to wrap in a towel and sleep on.

Yes they are supposed to snap closed. I had to work a long time and push really hard to get them to do that. It still didn't work for me. I just never could get it to seal like I think it is supposed to do. Maybe it is just me, but I wouldn't buy them again.

No 'soft close' per se, but you can soften/slow the close by adjusting the spring tension (i.e., how far you wind it up).

You control the closing with your foot. Nothing automatically stops it, but it doesn't slam down abruptly either. Specially if you have a little trash bag, this softens the closing.

This close fast if you make them close fast.. The air cushioned thingy works when you let them lose. Anyway.. It's a feature you won't be using much..

Mine will turn off when I close my kindle. They shut off when I leave one book and search for another. So I guess they only shut off when am momentarily not using them. If yours are shutting off while listening then something must be wrong with them.
