Silent and Easy to Install
I recently moved into a place with hardwood floors and decided to replace the standard casters on our office chairs with these rollerblade wheels. Until then I was using unsightly floor protector mats to stop the casters from scratching the floorboards.I was initially hesitant since the rollerblade wheels aren't exactly cheap, and I wasn't sure whether they would actually fit my chairs. I ordered three sets as a test. Well, they fit perfectly - it was a simple matter of pulling off the old casters and pushing in the new ones. These wheels are silent and smooth. Absolutely fantastic! I was so impressed that I have now ordered another three sets for the rest of my office chairs.Only one thing to bear in mind is that the wheels are taller than standard casters, so you may need to lower the height of your seat after installing.

Plastic housing is important
I had another set of wheels with metal housing used in the past two years, since it was for my home office, the housing will always hit my feet from time to time, and it is not a good feeling when metal hit your bare feet. Eventually I had to look hard for a more round and softer design, this is exactly what I should have, good wheels and yet I can't really hurt my feet when hitting during movements anymore.

Great office chair addition and likely the best Rollerblade wheel caster available on Amazon
Very basic review:Some reviews mentioned axle caps falling off. This has not happened to me. Eveything that came attached has remained attached.Rolliness. Very rolly. Very nicely rolly. The wheel material duro (hardness) seems very suited to smooth floors.Quiet. They're literally the quietest office chair casters I've used.Design. So I'll go a little granular with this section as the bearing design of this particular caster is particualrly special and, thus, noteworthy. Office chair caster wheels-actually all caster wheels-by design have a desire to tear themselves apart in use. This is due to the loads applied to them never being directly over the top and alwas off-centre. The only relatable analogy I can think of is carrying someone on your shoulders vs attempting to carry the same person at arm's length. Far more challenging.So during my research for 'rollerblade wheel casters', the Uniq stood unopposed due to the swivel bearing design being better suited to opposing that self-destruction compared with the regular design.A comprehensive explanation of the above can be found by searching 'rollerblade office caster wheels buyer beware' in quotes.Sidenote: definitely not affilliated with either Uniq or the site behind the review I quoted. I'm just someone who spent far too long researching a great set of office chair casters and who would like to save you from that same journey.Second sidenote: I'm a male weighing about 90kg. The office chair these were fitted to is a Therapod System. It's not a light chair by any stretch.

Excelente juego de ruedas
Quedaron bien, no me gusta mi piso, el segundo piso de mi casa tiene un problema y quedó algo inclinado, así que para mi mala suerte la silla se mueve mucho, pero con una alfombra quedó bastante bien, no se mueven, quedó más alta la silla, el material de las ruedas está genial, de un plástico muy suave, no hacen ruido cuando se deslizan. Me gustaron mucho.

Excelente desempeño, calidady muy silenciosas
Después de 2 semanas de uso estoy muy satisfecho con estas ruedas UNIQ de poliuretano; son de muy buena calidad, no dañan los pisos ni las alfombras, soportan hasta 150 lbs cada rueda (650 lbs en total => 295 Kgs), se deslizan muy suavemente en pisos de madera y loseta de Mármol, además, son muy silenciosas.Antes de adquirirlas y decidirme por ellas, consulté muchas opiniones y reseñas en Internet, sin duda tiene un diseño muy agradable y único, el perfil de las ruedas (la parte que toca el piso) es muy delgado, lo que permite que su desempeño sea excelente (menor fricción por contacto y muy silenciosas); en la base que se une a las patas de la silla, tienen doble rodamientos que permiten su giro y su espiga (vástago) es más robusta; en los ejes de la ruedas también tiene doble rodamientos de bolas, su carcaza es de plástico moldeado, lo que le da una línea muy estética, sin filos y es muy suave al contacto con la plantas de los pies (si es que recargas tu talón sobre su estructura).Leí varias quejas de que los pequeños tapones que cubren los rodamientos en el eje de las ruedas se caen con facilidad, hasta el momento esto no ha sucedido (espero que nunca suceda). En fin muy contento con ellas, ya ordené 2 Juegos más para otras de mis sillas.Además las adquirí a muy buen precio en Amazon México ($702 pesos que equivalen a $35 USD) y los 2 juegos adicionales que recién ordené los adquirí aún más baratos ($600 pesos aproximadamente. $30 USD).Me gustaría que vinieran con freno (en 2 de sus ruedas) como las de la marca Stealtho, pero esa opción no está disponible. Hay que considerar que tienen un perfil muy alto, por lo que aumentará la altura de la silla (alrededor de 1" o 1.5", dependiendo del tipo de ruedas estándar de plástico que se tengan)
