I had Sliderobes put in the bedroom 4-5 years back and have been very happy with them. I have never actually heard of Slide Direct. Coincidentally I am awaiting the installation of sliderobes in my living room at the end of this month, in order to take books, CDs, etc etc etc. Sliderobes have moved on over the years from just installing into bedrooms, as you probably know, and have some terrific doorfronts that suit living areas. I think the whole idea is a terrific space saving one (living, as I do, in what's almost a doll's house in Portobello)!! I'd be interested in knowing more about Slide Direct though?????
