The analysis
It takes up 4,180 cm² of floor: a run of wall at least 110 cm long and 38 cm deep has to stay clear for it to sit flush against it. According to the manufacturer, once closed it folds flat enough to slide under a bed or into a wardrobe corner, although no folded width, depth or height is published, so the floor space it actually gives back cannot be stated.
Inside, a removable divider splits the box in two, according to the manufacturer, keeping two kinds of stored items apart within the single enclosure.
On the lid, the manufacturer states a 300 kg load, with metal corner reinforcements beneath 2.5 cm of high-resilience foam; the frame itself is MDF, and assembly is required.
In favour
- According to the manufacturer, it folds flat enough to slide under a bed or into a wardrobe corner once closed
- The removable divider, according to the manufacturer, keeps two kinds of stored items apart in the same box
- Metal corner reinforcements, according to the manufacturer, back up the MDF frame under load
Against
- No folded width, depth or height is published, so the floor space it gives back once closed cannot be confirmed
- Assembly is required
Best for: Anyone who needs an extra seat in a small living room and somewhere to put a duvet, a season of shoes or children's toys out of sight.
