    Looks identical to this kit: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005...%2315609%23247

    Recently I bought a similar kit, but not from the same seller. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005...47344c4dvbomq4 I only needed 400mm long, and I must say that what I received is excellent, I am very happy with it.

    I try to avoid sellers with such low rate as 94%, but your stuff can be equally good as mine. 1000mm is pretty long, so it is more critical, but otherwise I think it should be fine. Mine are good quality. Kitwin is a bit negative... unless there is a manufacturing defect, to say that they are "better than the skate bearing and angle-iron alternative" is really nonsense. Of course they are better, even supported round bars are better, MUCH better. You can't compare with those under the same sun.

    That said, you should be prepared to clean the bearings. They can come dirty from the factory, but cleaning those linear slides is really no big deal. Generally, I think that good cleaning is always necessary, though these last ones I bought seems very nice and clean. All my bearings came individually packed, nice in sealed plastic bags, as well as all the other things, everything individually packed. I don't know if yours will be the same.
