Any recommendations for a slider?

I’m starting to shoot more and more video.
My boss says we have money for some new toys, but won’t say how much. Anyone out there have a favorite slider to recommend? I’ve been shooting with a Nikon D810. Again, not sure of my budget, just wading into the waters here. Usually shoot one-person interviews with 2 cameras and want to add some interest to the shots.
Also, I hate using CFL’s for lighting.
Last shoot I used the modeling lights from my Bowens monolights with a couple of soft boxes. Results were so much better and easier to control.
Thanks!

It sounds like using a slider may be more advanced than most posters here are. There's lots of youtube reviews and videos on various brands of sliders,
some motorized, some manual, some curved, some straight, some mounted on the ground or a cabinet, others mounted on a tripod.
I wish you would post a link to some of your videos, I'm always interested to see what other videographers create. I looked at your website and your still photos atre fantastic.

Thanks Bob! Just getting into video sort of by necessity. Budget doesn’t allow hiring someone to do it and i’m game to learn, though it’s been under some pressure. Yeah, this evidently isn’t the best forum to ask in. I’ve looked at a lot of reviews, but some first hand experience from another party will help. May just pick one and go with it. It will be better than none.
