Abstract

A drawer assembly for an appliance includes a drawer front providing selective access to a drawer recess, a handle assembly attached to the drawer front, and a slide assembly attached to the drawer front. The slide assembly includes a fixed slide mounted to the appliance, a sliding support coupling the drawer front to the fixed slide, and a catch lever operably coupled to the fixed slide and the sliding support. The catch lever is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position to selectively fix the sliding support relative to the fixed slide.
