Your analysis made me go look at mine again - just to make sure they had the 
features I thought they did. All three of mine have ball bearing slides and 
the front face plates are actually the front of the drawers, not simply a 
facade. It seems as thought the new ones are a step down in quality from the 
earlier ones - a sign of our times.
