Makes moving a washing machine easier
No more shredded/torn flooring when heaving machine back under counter top.A splodge of washing liquid or hair conditioner on the top surface of the plastic and the machine slides in (with some encouragement). Just remember to pull them out horizontally from under feet of machine

Makes moving appliances easier
I bought these to slide a washing machine out and back in due to a leak. Easy to insert and remove. I wasn't able to slide the machine out as directed by pulling on the sliders at floor level, though they make it easier to slide the machine out and in handling the machine. One slider cracked slightly after a use but still works ok.

Great so far!
Very useful product. Here is how I moved my 95kg under counter Miele washing machine across a fresh lino floor with the aid of a Winbag Air Wedge.STEP 1Lube the skis on the machine side ( I use washing up liquid).STEP 2Centrally place the Air Wedge under the front edge of the machine and hand-pump it until the front feet are lifted by 1/2" or so.STEP 3Slide the skis under the front feet until they fall just short of the rear feet.STEP 4Press down the diagonally opposite corner of the rear foot that needs to be raised and slide under each ski.STEP 5Deflate and remove the air wedge.STEP 6The machine can now be pushed or pulled, sliding across the lubricated surface of the skis. Similar steps above can be repeated to move the machine further

Skis for moving large objects.
We have a large upright fridge freezer and thought the skis sounded an easy way to move it. Unfortunately as we tried to move it the skis cracked. across the middle so were of little use A good idea but the skis need to be stronger.

Great idea!
Absolutely great, makes it so much easier to fit appliances singlehandedly, protects flooring and is made of flexible plastic so should be possible to use many times

They would work if they hadnt snapped
The sliders do allow the washing machine to slide but it is quite tricky to position both of them, its a 2 person job really, however I managed this only to find they snapped when the machine went over a little bump in the vinyl on the sliders. They seem not to be strong enough or too brittle. They would work I think on very flat surfaces.

Makes a hard job easy
How easy it made putting my new washing machine into a tight space. We struggled when fitting the old machine on moving in to our home. We read the reviews and found some people found this system worked and others didn’t so came down to a personal choice. We decided to try this method and it definitely made a big difference and was worth the cost. Would recommend it.

Long nd useful for moving heavy applicances
Basically think strips pf plastic, with some flex so unlikely to snap unless bent hard or not used correcty - see below.Made from white poly carb, they come with the plastic protection sheet on, you need to remove I suggest on only the shiny side - I found leaving the non-shiny side with the plastic protection (sticker) on and putting that non-shiny side on the floor made them slide better than the shiny side on the floor where I had removed it.Has zero instructions, but insert under middle of applicance on a cross angle, then you do need to tilt/rock applicance forward enough to push them back under its rear feet, then tilting the applicance back slide them sideways to uncross and so also under front appliance feet.Then you pull on the APPLIANCE to move it and it slides pretty easily (if your floor is smooth).Do NOT try to pull on the handle cut outs of the slides themselves to move the appliance! That is why some people have broken them! The handle cut outs are ONLY to position the sliders in place, NOT to move the appliance with!!They are very long, so no issue with any standard size appliance and of course need to be stored flat.The appliance feet stick better to the sliders (shiny side) than the sliders themselves do to the floor (matt side), so makes much, much easier to then slide the appliance straight out from under cabinets.They do actually really work! Worth the rather over inflated price and re-useable...forever.Store flat away from heat etc. I would think
