ZlideOn Zipper Pull Replacement - Black, Normal (L) - Instant Zipper Replacement Slider for Plastic Zippers

Wow! Really easy to replace the broken slider on my coat zipper with this product. I went to their website to make sure I was measuring it correctly before ordering. When the ZlideOn came I watched a YouTube on how to use it: cut off the old one (easy), clip on the new one (easy). It works perfectly. Great product!!

I had high hopes for how expensive these were (for 30$ I should have bought a new jacket).When I opened the package, they were all slightly ajar. I had pushed one closed. It was super easy to do, not realizing that permanent closed the zipper. Annoying…. But my own fault I guess.At least there’s several.Second one broke in my hand. Also annoying.The only directions are what you see on the back of box. Which just say “take off old zipper and put on new one”I got one on my jacket and I had installed it upside down. Also annoying but again, I guess it’s my own fault.I finally got the third one on the jacket and it wouldn’t zipper up. Like the teeth of the jacket didn’t come together.My husband intervened at that point, thinking I used one that was too large.We broke that one off (again once it’s closed they are permanently closed) and we put a smaller one on.That was too small and we needed to break it off.I got the last medium on the jacket for the 400th time and it also didn’t zipper up the jacket. The teeth wouldn’t come together.Putting in a zipper is pretty simple, we looked up videos and it should have been smooth…… not sure if I got a defective box.The quality seemed really good. Like ligit metal, then when the one broke in my hands I realized maybe it wasn’t really metal.Very disappointed for the money paid. Should have just bought a new jacket.

IF YOU BROKE A ZIPPER BUY THIS! I was searching for a zipper replacement when i came across this one and thought no way it works as easily as they say but it actually did. Literally just snapped on and it saved me from having to reorder a $75 sports bra. Would HIGHLY recommend.

I had a Land's end jacket with the upper part of the zipper claps was broken. I HIGHLY recommend using the type and size chart to make sure you get the right zipper that you need. It was not easy to get the broken zipper part off. The guide showing it being snipped off is false advertising for the ease to remove broken piece. No ordinary tool can do that. I ended up jamming to flat head screwdrivers into opposite ends of the side channel and twisted them in opposite directions to widen the channel and pull the piece off. I also had to use a flat head screwdriver on the new piece to hold the bottom and pop the pull down to open the new piece (Not easy to pull open with your fingers as the illustrations show. But, once I got that far, it was easy to snap the new piece on and it works like a charm!I would suggest to the company to offer more than just black and silver options. My jacket had navy blue powder coated zippers. It would have been nice to have it match (or come close), rather than a black half and a blue half.

Very quick to snap on, and works great! Initially, I was looking to hire someone to replace the zipper, but I'm so glad I found this product. It is so easy. Just make sure you get the right type and size of zipper, based on the chart given in one of the photos of the listing. There was a 5 on the back of my original zipper puller, and I could tell from the pictures that it was the plastic version. So, the Plastic (L) worked for what I needed. I took a couple of pictures after it was on. (Not sure why it looks shiny like its metal in the pictures, but I got the black color zipper pull)The toughest part though was to take the other zipper puller off. I actually put this ZlideOn zipper pull replacement on first, and then figured if I wasn't able to take off the other zipper puller, I could deal with it, and just not be able to pull my zipper puller all the way to the top.However, if you have the right tools, you can get the original zipper puller off easier. As pictured, I tried the cutter tool on the right first, and that did not work well. I found that I had the other cutter on the left (not sure what it is called), but it worked much better to get the original zipper puller off. It still took a little bit to get off, but I got it off.

In case you missed this in the product description, the multipacks come with a variety of sizes. I’m not sure if it’s more cost effective to buy a single vs a pack, but the pack is good in case you need random sized zippers on hand to fix a multiple sized zippers. I do find the price high though but that’s because these zippers are imported from Sweden.The zippers themselves are very sturdy. I found that they do fix the zippers fairly quickly, but it’s not an easy glide. Meaning, you have to pull hard on the zipper tab to get it to move. And the bad thing about this is that the tab has a spike on it which makes it’s uncomfortable to use. I also wouldn’t advise using this on children’s apparel or backpacks for that reason.Once clamped, the zipper doesn’t feel like it will come off. However, if you want to remove the zipper, it does take a screwdriver and patience to wiggle it open. While this zipper is made well and installation is relatively easy, I’m still looking for an alternative that glides more easily and doesn’t have a spike on it.

Had one metal zipper on my husband’s Harley jacket that I had no idea could be repaired. Took a chance and this product is amazing! So glad I didn’t take it to have it done. Highly recommend! The cost savings and convenience is beyond words!
