Pros & Cons
Pros
They're extremely quiet on a hard floor yet roll smoothly over carpeted areas. No noise, feels like you are gliding on oil. Once installed the chair glides smoothly and silently across hardwood floors now.
Smooth as silk on hardwood floors and my kid loves riding around on it. It rolls so smooth. Still works well through, it doesn't prevent the casters from rolling smoothly, they're just no longer whisper quiet.
Wheel has two types of * bearing to absorb axial forces to allow for 360 degree wheel rotation and ball bearing for radial forces. Bought as replacement wheels for my gaming chair, and ordered a second set for my wife's office chair.
No complaints so far. Well worth the money. Very happy with the purchase. These are amazing!
Cons
This castor is non-standard and doesn't fit to any of the chairs. Doesn't fit on ikea chair nor chair purchased from costco. Can't install on ikea or costco chairs.
Highlights
Quality
So i buy a couple of these expensive office chairs and they came with the the cheapest wheels

My main concern is that it sometimes rols by itself if the floor is not flat

Replaced the stock wheels from the gaming chair and 1000 times better for noise reduction

Updated after a while a small portion of the rubbersilicone started detaching inside one of the casters so it now makes a small squeak when rolling on the floor

The only thing i would note is that they roll very quickly when you do move around kinda fun but if youre one who cant me or chooses not to have their feet on the ground while sitting on it it can drift around a little

Abec categorization of bearings are out of 5 with abec7 translating to 4 out of 5 5 being best google the abec bearing scale for more info on how bearings are rated

You dont want it so hard that it becomes brittle under axial loads and 5565 hrc rockwell scale is a good compromise
